Dear Matpower community,
I am a Ph.D. student working in power system dynamic analysis. I use Matpower for computing the initial values of the system variables. I want to find the initial values of the algebraic variables (voltage magnitude, voltage angle, generator current phasors...) at the time of disturbance. The disturbance is a three phase fault at one bus in the system, usually a load or zero-injection bus. I tried to consider the faulted bus as a generator with zero power and zero voltage, but the problem cannot be solved. I was wondering if there is any way to get around this problem? I greatly appreciate your help. Thanks in advance Ismael
