In this paper, an extended optimal power flow model (EOPF) is presented to restore the solvability of optimal power flow (OPF). In this model, slack variables to equality constraints and inequality constraints are added; meantime, penalty items corresponding to the slack variables are added to objective function. The extended model is solved by improved primal-dual interior point method. Test results...
