Hi Zeya,

I’ll try to answer some of your questions:

1) Reactive power consumption (Qmin) is typically smaller than Qmax. Sometimes 
a good approximation is to take Qmin= -1/3 Qmax, but to a better assumptions 
you have to look at the generator’s capability curve.

2) If you are doing PF analysis you don’t need these parameters. But in my 
opinion the line’s capacity typically are between 25-1000 MW. This parameter 
depends on the physical construction of the line and i think you can’t assume 
it.

3) The best way is to use either pice-wise or quadratical convex functions. If 
you have a set of points that represent the generator cost under different 
powers, you can approximate this set to a quadratical function using least 
squares regression.

4) This data is very important and you should not assume it.  if you can obtain 
the cost functions you should run an OPF to dispatch active power generation 
and then you will have a base case to perform all your steady state analysis.


Best regards,

Uriel
