Computer aided education on power flow analysis

Abstract

This project is intended to aid student in learning and understanding Power Flow Analysis method and concept. It is based on Visual Basic 6 (VB) Programming software as e-learning tools for Power Flow Analysis. This also helps lecturer in teaching or presenting in e-learning way. Power Flow Analysis is quite hard to understand without proper study. There are 3 method as basic method for analysis which are Gauss-Seidel method, Newton- Raphson method and Fast Decoupled method. These 3 methods involve in solving iterative equations which consist several formula need to be understand by students. With the help of interactive program created by using visual basic, student can understand the equations effectively. With this e-learning program, students and lecturers can do complex number calculation regarding power system analysis data. With these e-learning program, students can revise by trying the tutorial and quiz section to strengthen their understanding in this power flow analysis.
