Implementation of Gauss Seidel Method for Solution of Equations


Objective

To learn basic coding for implementation of Gauss-Seidel method

Theory

The Gauss-Seidel method is the method of successive displacement. It is an iterative method used
to solve a linear system of equations. It shows slower rates of convergence compared to other
iterative methods, but it uses very little memory and does not need to solve a matrix system.

Example: Find the voltage at bus 2 of given system using Gauss Seidel Method. Consider
100MVA as a base for power and V2 0 = 1 p.u.
MATLAB Code:

Output:Lab Task: Find Voltage at bus 1 and 2 of given system using Gauss Seidel Method.
Consider 100MVA as a base for power and V2 0 = 1 p.u, V3 0 = 1 p.u.

MATLAB Code:
Output:
Stopping Criteria

There are 2 criteria for stopping iteration

1. Change in x, known as Ax is decreased unless it becomes less than a particular value.


2. We can also fix the number of iterations for example we can say that after 50 or 100
iterations, the root is final.

Conclusion

Hence, we conclude that in Gauss seidel method there is slow rate of convergence resulting in
larger number of iterations and also Increase in the number of iterations with increase in the
number of buses. But still there is a simplicity in technique and requires small computer
memory and Less computational time per iteration.
