convergence problem in runpf.

2015-08-10 Thread Mirish Thakur
Dear Matpower Community, I’m working on power flow project and have used grid data from database. I have modelled all line parameters (R X B) in p.u. system, also same for transformers and kept generator output until it satisfies active and reactive power demand. For renewable generation, I

I would suggest trying the following: 1. Use the solution of a fast decoupled power flow or an optimal power flow (with line limits and voltage limits relaxed) as the initial guess for the power flow. 2. Follow step 5 in http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/#pfconvergence making CPF to

You can modify the test case so that the bounds are very tight on the variables you would like to keep constant. Cheers, -Carleton On Aug 10, 2015, at 9:53 PM, rainy chung chunyu...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Matpower communities, The default runopf change all the control inputs, such as active

Thanks Sir, I will try that. By the way, I am wondering whether you know how to add new varaibles z using direct specification method? Many thanks! Best Regards! 2015-08-11 6:35 GMT+08:00 Carleton Coffrin carleton.coff...@nicta.com.au: You can modify the test case so that the bounds are very

Shruti is right, the value you obtain for lambda is valid for all the network, since voltage collapse is a global phenomenon (in other words, you'll see a nose point at the same value of lambda regardless of which bus you choose to plot). Remember that lambda represents a fraction along the

Hi Matpower communities, The default runopf change all the control inputs, such as active power and terminal voltage of PV buses. Is it possible to only change the values of a specific subsets of , for example, PV bus instead of all of it! Many Thanks! Best Regards!
