Probabilistic Power Flow by Monte Carlo Simulation With Latin Supercube Sampling

In this paper, a Latin supercube sampling (LSS) combined with Monte Carlo simulation is presented to efficiently sample random variables in the probabilistic power flow (PPF) problem. The results of the LSS method are compared with other techniques, namely Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) and simple random sampling (SRS), using bin-by-bin histogram comparison. The simulation results are presented for the case of IEEE 118-bus test system.
