Hi Baljinnyam,
violently thanks for your working as to Matpower. I suppose it will be great
for adding this functions that you have developed. Further discussion about
this kinds of questions will be greatly useful.

Hi Baljinnyam,
Thanks for your offer to contribute. This would be a nice addition to MATPOWER.
I suggest starting by adding two new MATPOWER options, each with default values
of 0 …
opf.current_balance = 0 (complex power balance) or 1 (complex current balance)
opf.v_cartesian = 0 (polar) or 1 (Cartesian)
Then find all the places in the existing OPF code where the current (default)
formulation is assumed and add conditionals to implement the other variations.
You might find it useful to use the MATLAB Profiler with a simple runopf() call
to map out the functions that are called. I think much of the work will be in
opf_setup(), where we’ll need to use different variables and constraints.
Another thing to do early in the process is to duplicate the t/t_opf_mips.m
file for each of the 3 new variations. The initial goal will be to get all of
those tests to pass for each of the versions.
Of course, you will want to begin all of this on your own fresh fork of the
current MATPOWER development branch using the guidelines in the Contributor’s
Guide.
Don’t hesitate to ask if you have questions or need any help along the way.
Thanks again,
Ray

Dear Matpower developers,
I use Matpower for my work to solve OPF problems. As we know that the power
balance (mismatch) equations in Polar coordinates are used as equality
constraints in the OPF formulation in Matpower. However, depending on the
formulation of equality constraints (power or current mismatch) and
specification of the coordinates (Polar or Cartesian), OPF problem can be
formulated mathematically in four different ways for a single physical
formulation. I am working on other three versions since some advantages can be
obtained for the derivatives or properties of matrix equations of Newton update
step. I have finished other versions theoretically and implemented on Matlab.
So I was wondering if you would like to include the other versions in Matpower.
If you are interested, I would like to discuss how we can design the
implementation. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Baljinnyam S
