Hi Matpower community,

We are trying to integrate a dcline into our network. We use most to solve the 
multiperiod dcopf problem.

When using matpower's rundcopf we get a reasonable solution and can read the 
output for the power flow over the dcline in the result structure. 
(result.dcline)
But when we use most to solve the problem we are unsure where to find the power 
flow (pf) over the dc line.

As far as I understand in most when using the ext2int function the dcline is 
modeled as two generators that are appended to the generator list in 
mpc_int.gen.
After the run mdo.flow(i).mpc.dcline seems to show the initial value of the 
dcline but not the output for the ith interval. When I look in 
mdo.flow(i).mpc.gen(end-1:end,:) I can see the PG for the two artificial 
generators that represent the dcline.
Also it seems that there is a -Inf and Inf set for PMIN and PMAX for one of the 
generators which results in a large PG output for the specific generator.

I have the following questions:

Where can I get the power flow (pf) of the dcline for each interval in most?
How to make sure that both generators that represent the dcline are restricted 
to the specified PMAX and PMIN?

Thanks for your help.

Best,
Kaspar
