The voltage magnitude of the slack bus and PV buses is controlled by the VG
column in gen field, namely, column 6 of mpc.gen. Changing column VM in mpc.bus
does not change them.

Subject: A question in calculating power flow
Dears,
Recently I have been confused by the voltage magnitude
setting in a case model. Suppose in a distribution system like 'case33bw.m',
like the way I did in revising the power demand I was trying to increase the
voltage magnitude of node 1(Reference node) by implementing
mpc.bus(1,VM)=1.0025. After running runpf(mpc), the result shows that it does
not work, the voltage magnitude of node 1 still converge to 1. Since the
voltage magnitude of a reference node is supposed to be static during power
flow calculation, I wanna ask you how could I revise the voltage magnitude of a
reference node in a case file?
Thank you in advance, early reply is appreciated.
Regards,
Yan
