Dear Matpower Users,

It is my pleasure to announce the launch of STAC (v1.2.0b), a web-based 
visualization tool for Matpower test cases,

http://immersive.erc.monash.edu.au/stac/

It is designed to help power system researchers explore and understand the data 
in their Matpower case files.  We hope this tool will be useful for the 
community.  Any feedback / feature requests / bugs you have will be much 
appreciated.  Feel free to e-mail me directly.

We are also seeking testimonials.  If this tool helps you in any way, please 
share your story with us.

Re: Hello! Need Advice Guidance

I didn’t get a chance to look at your code carefully, but is there a reason you 
are not simply using the continuation power flow (see chapter 5 in the manual 
http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/manual.pdf) in MATPOWER?

 Hello,
 
 I am Sridevi, I am trying to get a PV Curve and pmax for IEEE 30 bus test

RTS-96 Test System in matpower format

2015-04-20 Thread Kanis
Hi, i would like to ask if someone has  RTS-96 Test System in matpower 
format. A link 
http://www.parallelcoding.com/wp-content/uploads/Research/MCSPruning/case96.m 
that is suggested in a previous conversation is not working.


Thanks in advance for your interest!

Hello Ray, 

Thank you for your response. I realize about the CPF method but I and 
specifically trying sensitivity analysis using PV Curves. Hence seeking for an 
advice. 

Thanks  Regards, 
Sridevi
