In this project a method to solve the Power Flow Problem for Electrical Distribution Networks was developed. Electrical Networks are studied using electrical graphs and hierarchical algorithms are implemented to traverse them. The proposed solution employs numerical methods using C++ to solve the power flow problem and profits from the hierarchical structures created, which makes the solution more efficient. Additionally, a
simulator was developed in order to visualize the Electrical Distribution Network and displays results in a more intuitive manner for any specific configuration of the power flow problem. This visualizer also allows for easy interaction with the program. Operating conditions are varied to test the accuracy and useful range of predictive solutions to the power flow problem in the methods described, including areas for future improvement.
