Distributed slack bus #23

Closed richardkue closed 2 years ago

richardkue commented 2 years ago

Are there any needs or current developments regarding a distributed slack bus in the power flow calculation?

rdzman commented 2 years ago

Sorry for the delayed response ...

Since MOST is based on the optimal power flow problem, rather than a simple power flow, it does not use the concept of a slack bus at all.

Assuming you are actually referring to distributed slack capabilities in MATPOWER (issue tracker here) as opposed to MOST, that is in runpf(), the answer is that we do not currently have any specific plans under way to add this capability, but would be happy to consider any code contributions toward it.

I meant a distributed slack in runpf and I am thinking about making a contribution. Is an implementation in one algorithm (e.g. Newton, power, polar) enough to get into a release?

EDIT: Sorry, I just realised I posted my issue in the wrong repository. The issue should be in matpower.

richardkue commented 2 years ago

At my own fork of the matpower repository I created a pull request with a concept/idea on how to implement a power flow with distributed slack bus. I would appreciate it if you have a quick look and can give me some feedback!

rdzman commented 2 years ago

If you don't mind, could you please create a new issue in the matpower repository and I'll follow up there. Thanks.

richardkue commented 2 years ago

I created a new issue in matpower. This one can be closed. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Further discussion moved to MATPOWER/matpower#136.
