Dear All,
Hello!
Recently I am studying on Interior Point Method for Optimal
Power Flow. I
try to program by myself with Matlab to solve OPF problem with
Interior Point
Method (which mainly based on the paper of 'Introduction to interior-
point
methods' and 'Optimal power flow in rectangular form via an interior
point
method' by Geraldo Leite Torres& Victor Hugo Quintana). However, my
program can
not converge and can not get the optimal solution after lot of
debugging. And
then I tried to solve some simple mathematic problems with these
interior point
methods, and the solution also can not be gotten.
Is there anybody in the group can give me some suggetions or
discuss with
each other on these problems?
Have you verified, using finite-difference methods, that your code for
computing all of your function derivatives is correct? If not, that's
where I would start.
And the OPF in Matpower uses Interior Point
Method? Do you have any information or documents to recommand for
Interior
Point Method?
There is an optional AC OPF solver for MATPOWER that includes two
variations of a primal-dual interior point method. See ...
