A New Universal Optimization Approach for Maximum Flows in Power Systems

In the present paper, five different problems for analysis and optimization of the energy flows in power systems are discussed. Based on them, a new approach for determining the maximum flow, passed through the system considered from the sources to the recipients, is suggested. An analytical solution of each of these problems, is proposed. The new approach suggested is universal, because it can also be applied for analysis and optimization of the energy, information and material flows in the power, information and industrial systems.
