Hello, I am fairly new to MATPOWER and I am wondering if there is a simple way to implement dynamic security-constrained OPF using MATPOWER.
A quick search in MATPOWER email thread revealed the possibility of using 'Extended OPF Formulation' for tackling this problem. Also, in the paper *'Stability-Constrained Optimal Power Flow' by Daqian Gan, Robert J. Thomas, and Ray D. Zimmerman*, the problem is solved using MATPOWER. Has anyone in the MATPOWER community used the Extended OPF Formulation for solving dynamic-security constrained OPF? If yes, can you provide some insights regarding implementation and/or reference papers? I am thinking about implementing the stability-constraints (limit on rotor angles with respect to COA) using user-defined variables. Is there a way to call a time-domain simulation software from the MATPOWER, compute the maximum swing angle (del_max), and then check the user-defined constraints back in MATPOWER? Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thanks, Arun Shrestha Graduate Student
