Thank you Ray, It helped.
But When I try to run load flow with enfore_Q_ lims, it has such error:

Attempted to access pv(1); index out of bounds because numel(pv)=0.

Error in bustypes (line 61)
    ref = pv(1);                %% use the first PV bus

Error in runpf (line 291)
                [ref, pv, pq] = bustypes(bus, gen);

Is this possiblely because all PV buseshave been converted to PQ bus? Do you 
have suggestion to fix it?
Thanks

Wenlei

Subject: Re: PV bus generator reactive power exceeding limits

MATPOWER does not return this information explicitly (though it does print it 
if the verbose option is on. However, you can find it by comparing the BUS_TYPE 
column of the bus matrix before and after solving the power flow.

>> mpc = loadcase('case118');
>> results = runpf(mpc, mpopt);

MATPOWER Version 6.0-dev, 14-Mar-2016 -- AC Power Flow (Newton)

Newton's method power flow converged in 3 iterations.

Gen 15 at lower Q limit, converting to PQ bus
Gen 16 at lower Q limit, converting to PQ bus

Gen 48 at lower Q limit, converting to PQ bus

Hope this helps,

Hi Jose,
Thanks for reminder. I didn’t know this option before. It solved my question.
So how do we know which PV bus, is there is any, is converted to PQ bus after 
using ENFORCE_Q_LIMS option 1 or 2?

Quick question, did you use the option pf.enforce_q_lims?  (see Table C-2 in 
the manual)

Also, be aware that options 1 and 2 may yield different solutions, in general.

Dear Ray,
I’ve encountered a situation: the real power and voltage are specified in PV 
buses, and as I run the load flow on modified 30 bus case, somehow the reactive 
power of PV bus are exceeding the limits. Some even exceed the negative limits.
The thing is the reactive power demand of the load and system isn’t large.  Can 
you see what might be wrong?

Blessings,
Wenlei
