This paper presents the applicability of various
fourth order Newton’s methods for the solution of load flow
problem in power systems. The performance of various fourth
order schemes has been assessed on IEEE 14, 30, 57, 118 bus
system data and northern regional power grid (NRPG) 246 bus
system data. The performance has been assessed on the basis
of errors, computation time and number of iterations. It has
been observed that the fourth order schemes can be successfully
applied for load flow problem consisting of large bus data. The
importance of this work lies in making comparisons of various
fourth order schemes for solving load flow problem that is not
earlier studied in the literature.
