Dear all,
I want run AC power flow, considering multiple generators with possibility of 
Islanding using MATPOWER 4.1.
In addition to the grid supply I have five generators of equal output capacity 
at particular bus location. I defined this bus location as slack bus. This 
means I have two slack buses (including the grid supply). When I run MATPOWER 
AC power flow, with the grid connected, one of the generators (the first 
generator of the five connected) is taking care of system losses, showing that 
the chosen generator has unlimited capacity and is also absorbing negative 
active power. I am assuming a distributed generator (which could be synchronous 
generator, fuel cell etc) is this physically feasible? I had expected the grid 
supply been the first slack bus to take care of the system losses and provide 
other support for the network.  I would be glad if someone could advice on how 
to go about it.
