Dear Matpower Community, The 'Interface Flow Limits' extension allows me to limit the sum of all line flows between two areas to within a set range. However, I want to instead apply two limits - one to the sum of the positive flows, and one to the negative flows. For example, whilst the sum of the flow between area 1 and area 2 can be set as 1200MW using the existing iflims extension, I want to ensure that the flow from area 1 to area 2 = 1400MW and the flow from area 2 to area 1 = 200MW. My question is the following: is it possible using user defined constraints to achieve my aim in matpower?
I would need to apply one constraint to the sum of positive flows from area 1 to 2, whilst applying another constraint to the sum of negative flows from area 1 to 2 - but I cannot work out how to write this as a matpower constraint. Any help with this problem would be appreciated. Regards, Dom
