Re: Question regarding scaling the loads and generation in MATPower
I almost started to become superstitious … … then I noticed a typo in the last line before the call to runpf(). Left-hand side has QD, right-hand side has PD.

Question regarding scaling the loads and generation in MATPower
Hi all, I was trying to scale the loads and generation in MATPower using the following lines: clc;clear all; define_constants; mpcb = loadcase('case118'); % load base case mpct = mpcb; % set up target case with mpct.bus(:, VM) = 1; mpct.bus(:, VA) = 0; mpct.gen(:, VG) = 1; mpopt = mpoption('pf.tol', 1e-3,'pf.nr.max_it', 100,'pf.enforce_q_lims',1,'out.all', 1, 'verbose', 3); mpct.gen(:,PG)=mpct.gen(:,PG)*1.82736; mpct.gen(:,QG)=mpct.gen(:,QG)*1.82736; mpct.bus(:, PD) = mpcb.bus(:, PD)*1.82736; % and increased load mpct.bus(:, QD) = mpcb.bus(:, PD)*1.82736; % and increased load results = runpf(mpct, mpopt); The above code said that the power flow did not converge at that scaled loading level. However, on changing the order of the scaling (with the rest of the code remaining same) as follows, I got a solution: mpct.bus(:,PD)=mpcb.bus(:,PD)*1.82736; mpct.gen(:,PG)=mpcb.gen(:,PG)*1.82736; mpct.bus(:,QD)=mpcb.bus(:,QD)*1.82736; mpct.gen(:,QG)=mpcb.gen(:,QG)*1.82736; I have attached my published MATLAB code with the results. Why should the two codes give different results? Is there a reason behind having to follow a particular order? Which order should we follow?
