Dear Matpower users, I need a small help understanding complex current in my transmission lines. What does the complex current mean. For instance I have the current flowing in my line "k" as follows:
If = 3.3265e+02 - 3.2707e+02i %complex current injected into branch k at bus f It = -2.7750e+02 - 3.7500e+02i %complex current injected into branch k at bus t What is the physical meaning of this complex current? If I have to compare current in two transmission lines do I just take the modulus of this complex current? Best, Bijay
