Hello, I would like to run a power flow analysis that should respect a specific P-Q capability of a generator that looks like this:
While reading section 6.4.3 of the manual I noticed that trapezoidal P-Q shapes are supported. Are there alternative ways or plans to enable more granularity in the points of the curve, e.g. by following a table of 20 sets of (P,Qmin,Qmax) p.u. values? Thanks in advance. |

I'm afraid not. And section 6.4.3 is specifically about optimal power flow, not power flow. The approach for enforcing generator capabilities is different depending on which you are using. But, in either case, it would require writing some code to handle it, as MATPOWER does not have the capability natively to handle more general capability curves. |
