AC power flow model

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

AC power flow model is a model used in electrical engineering to analyze power grids. It provides a nonlinear system which describes the energy flow through each transmission line. Due to nonlinearity, in many cases the analysis of large network via AC power flow model is not feasible, and a linear (but less accurate) DC power flow model is used instead. Both of those models are very crude approximations to reality.
