Dear Dr Zimmerman,Thanks a lot for your help.I ran a dc opf for case 24ieee 
without considering any faults, for the whole year, in which the load in the 
buses  is  the one determined from ieee reliability test system with annual 
system peak 2850 MW and annual system min 965MW. For the hours that don't 
converge, I checked the sum of the load for all the buses  and the PMIN  and 
PMAX and I saw indeed what you said.For the times that the dcopf does not 
converge the  sum of pmin for the online generators is greater than the sum of 
the load for that hour.So the dc opf does not converge for all the hours that 
the load is lower that 1040 MW, which is the sum of Pmin for all the 
generators.I am a bit confused!How I can solve that problem?Can I make the 
assumption that the dcopf is a success for those cases?How can I control the 
generators , in order to have some of them shut down for those cases?Thanks for 
your time.Regards,Angelina

When the OPF does not converge, the result is often meaningless. Finding the 
reason for unfeasibility can be a non-trivial task. Start by checking that 
total fixed load lies between the sum of PMIN and the sum of PMAX for the 
on-line generators. Try removing all of the line flow limits. Try a simple 
power flow with what you think are reasonable voltage and real power set points 
for the generators.
Once you find a feasible OPF solution you may be able to modify parameters 
gradually toward the infeasible case to determine which constraints bind and 
then conflict.
Hope this helps,

Dear Dr Zimmerman,
I am doing reliability study in case24_ieee_rts and I have put extra expensive 
generators in load buses, in order to calculate the load curtailment.I did 
acopf but for some hours opf did not converged and I saw that the Qmin and max 
limits were violated.I couldn't find why, So I tried to do dcopf and now, it 
does not converges again and I see that the extra generators that I have put, 
some hours generate negative power of small value (like -0,0025).Have you got 
any idea why is this happening or what should I check??

Regards,
Angelina
