    Hi friends....
    I've solved different papers for load flow in radial distribution system and one paper for mesh network.
    So I can help you for load flow..
    But i need some help in reconfiguration. How can i approach for reconfiguration????

    I've solved that paper. but i don't want to give my program.
    however i can help to identify the mistakes in ur program or i can provide u results for any system to do ur thesis work.
    If u want results only, u can mail me the data for any bus system.

    The email id which i've mentioned is not my personal id. I'll check that mail weakly once. so please be patience to get the reply from me.

    First u've to do load flow analysis for radial distribution system.
    after this u can get the idea how to integrate Distributed generation into radial distribution system and how to do reconfiguration.
    so choose a good paper and start writing program for load flow of radial dist. system.

    Vanipdy we r nt choosing Conventional METHODS such as Gauss Siedel , NR..... ??

    1. NR & GS methods require solutions of set of equations whose size is of the order of number of the buses. This results in long computation time.
    2. For distribution system, Ybus matrix is very sparse => waste of memory storage.

    If not, U can take any one among these papers listed below.
    1. "A Direct Approach for Distribution System Load Flow Solutions" by J H Teng, IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2003, 18(3):882-887 (Page numbers).

    counting load flow???
    do you mean number of iterations???
    if so, try to implement the load flow for radial as well as mesh networks for 33 bus system. Later u can remove the loops one by one in mesh load flow program to count number of iterations...
    for IEEE 33 bus system, You'll get less number of iterations for mesh network (with 5 loops) than radial network.
