This paper presents a method to directly extract the Jacobian matrix of a power system’s power flow (PF) equations in polar coordinates (termed as DEJMP method). This method is designed to reduce the computational complexity of the extraction process and improve the computational efficiency of the relevant PF algorithm. Direct extraction of the Jacobian matrix from the complex power equation in polar coordinates precludes an increase in both the number of procedural steps and the computational expense, which is a problem associated with the conventional PF (C-PF) algorithm due to its requirement that the derivatives of the active and reactive bus power equations be taken in separate steps. The DEJMP method avoids the trigonometric calculations used in the conventional method for computing the Jacobian matrix, resulting in a significant increase in computational efficiency. In addition, simulation results obtained for IEEE-300, S-1047, S-2383, and S-9241 bus systems validate the efficiency of the DEJMP-based PF algorithm. The DEJMP-based PF algorithm requires more than 20% less time to calculate the PF than the C-PF algorithm. This decrease in computing time is more pronounced for large systems.
