Abstract :

One of the most important problems in distributed networks, is the loss of these networks. The function of energy annual loss is mainly one of the main functions in operation and optimum development of distributed networks problems. for calculating annual loses of energy in distributed networks need to calculate the load flow in all hours of a year, so that this matter needs high volume and time for calculating.in this article with using IEEE-RTS network load model, a new load model that named 288-h average load model for calculating annual loses of energy in distributed networks is presented. The performance of this proffered model on IEEE 33-bus test system is under study an analysis, and the forward/backward sweep technique is being used for load flow in test system. The result shows the excellence of the offered model.
