Features and Improvements

  • Security Constrained OPF (SCOPF) Tool: Added the contingency name to the 'Bus Marginal Controls' header to allow correlation between the controls and 'LP Basic Variables'
  • Security Constrained OPF (SCOPF) Tool: We have added a column on the LPVariables grid to show the contingency name that corresponds to the variable. Previously it was possible to have variables with the same ID, making it impossible to uniquely identify a variable.
  • Transient Stability: Made more descriptive validation error messages for REPC_A and REPC_B when the model does not have a measurement branch specified. Unless this model is only controlling voltage, then a branch must be specified at which the Qbranch, Pbranch, and/or Ibranch is measured. If the branch is not specified when it is needed an error message will appear indicating why the measurement is needed.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Contingency Analysis: Fixed reading of ViolationCTG objects from an AUX file when reading in custom monitor violations. These were not being read in when multiple of the same custom monitors violations for different violated elements under the same contingencies.
