Abstract :
[en] This paper tackles the complex problem of an Optimal Power Flow (OPF) by
the Interior Point Method (IPM). Two interior point algorithms are
presented and compared, namely the pure primal-dual and the predictor-corrector
respectively. Among various OPF objectives, emphasis is put on two classical
ones: the maximization of power system loadability and the minimization of the
amount of load curtailment. Illustrative examples on three test systems of 60,
118 and 300 buses are provided.
