In a three-bus power system, Bus 1 has a variable current source controlled to maintain a constant voltage magnitude |V1| = 1.05 p.u. with the source current phase angle dependent on the bus voltage angle. Bus 2 is connected to a generator supplying fixed active and reactive power (200 MW and 40 MVAr). Bus 3 is connected to an infinite bus with a fixed voltage magnitude |V3| = 1.0 p.u. and a fixed angle of -15°. How are these three buses categorized for load flow analysis?
