Following the API Documentation link http://www.pypower.org/api leads to a page that says "The domain pypower.org is for sale. To purchase, call ******. Click here for more details".

Unfortunately, this also means that the API documentation not available.

i2e = bus[:, BUS_I].astype(int)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

I found a issue in the "ext2int" function related to false indexing of the consecutive bus numbering in row 152 (see following code). The dictonary data type requires integer indices instead of float numbers that are used currently.
The issue appears with the latest numpy version "1.12.0" (it doesn't ignore anymore false indexing with float numbers).

Current implementation (error appears in row 152):

## apply consecutive bus numbering
           o["bus"]["i2e"] = ppc["bus"][:, BUS_I].copy()
           o["bus"]["e2i"] = zeros(max(o["bus"]["i2e"]) + 1)

Manual fix by changing the code in row 151 (it's not pretty, I know, but it works):

## apply consecutive bus numbering
            o["bus"]["i2e"] = ppc["bus"][:, BUS_I].copy().astype(int)
            o["bus"]["e2i"] = zeros(max(o["bus"]["i2e"]) + 1)

In line 245 (image below), the variable bi is indicating the index number which should be an integer. But values stored in the numpy array ‘gen’ are all floats. Thus, the variable should be converted to a float.

As reported via email by Aeishwarya Umesh Baviskar

It seems that there is a tiny mistake with the current master branch in ext2int.py Line 151
where o["bus"]["e2i"] = zeros(max(o["bus"]["i2e"]) + 1) should be o["bus"]["e2i"] = zeros(max(o["bus"]["i2e"]).astype(int) + 1), or you will get a TypeError: 'numpy.float64' object cannot be interpreted as an integer when you call ext2int().

I found in the chnagelog that continaution power flow is added as a new feature to pypower in 2020 but I could not find any documentation on how to use it. Can someone help with this please?

if any(bus[:, BUS_I] != list(range(nb))): stderr.write('buses must appear in order by bus number\n')
Should be:
if any(bus[:, BUS_I] != list(range(1, nb+1))): stderr.write('buses must appear in order by bus number\n')
Also:
f = branch[:, F_BUS] t = branch[:, T_BUS]
Should be:
f = branch[:, F_BUS] - ones(nl) t = branch[:, T_BUS] - ones(nl)

I'm unable to use makePTDF.

Specifically, I seem to be getting an error in makeBdc at this line

Any idea what might be going on?

It looks like you've caught a few of these before, so here's another one. In printpf, replace

 gen(i, [PMIN, PG, PMAX]])

with

 tuple(gen(i, [PMIN, PG, PMAX]]))

makeYbus fails when using pypower test cases due to one-indexing issues. For instance, for:

import pypower.api as pp ppc = pp.case14() baseMVA, bus, branch = ppc['baseMVA'], ppc['bus'], ppc['branch'] pp.makeYbus(baseMVA, bus, branch)

The output is

Somebody could you help me?

Dear Author, i am trying to run a repository that utilizes the PYPOWER's opf.py file to run power flow but when it calls the 'ext2int.py' to convert to continuous indexing starting from 0,it gives following error. IndexError: index 23 is out of bounds for axis 0 with size 23. if ou could help me resolve this issue, i would be thankful to you and it will assist to my phd research. Thanks for consideration.

It would be nice if Pypower's test suite would support a test runner like pytest. This would make it a lot easier run only certain tests or skip certain tests.

In most cases, it should be sufficent to rename all files and methods from "t__" to "test__" and use simple assert statements.

When running runpf(casedata), if casedata['gen'] contains a generator that is off on the slack bus, then bustypes returns a ref as follows

ref = zeros(1, dtype=int)
ref = pv[0]

#37 states that ref must be a numpy array, and although 7a9b687 makes ref an empty numpy array in line 46, line 47 overrides that change.

Hello,

When I tried the source code as in the tutorial http://www.pypower.org/usage.html, I got an error with printpf as follows

TypeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'getitem'

Note that if r is a result returned from a runopf then there is no problem printing it. But if r is a result return from runpf then I got the above error message.

Dear all,

I run an OPF and pass the solved case over to a PF solver. Then, the PF solver iterates. This should not be happening (I have established that after a discussion with Zimmerman), since the OPF solution is also a PF solution.

In older versions of MATPOWER this would happen because the OPF solver would not update the generator voltage setpoints. I did some checking and this does not seem to be the case in PYPOWER.

Minimal example:

from pypower.api import case14, runopf , runpf , ppoption
opt = ppoption(VERBOSE=2)
mpc = runpf(runopf(case14(), opt), opt)

OPF is an important feature of Pypower. Pypower has kindly provided interface to IPOPT through pyIPOPT. However, in recent Python version, e.g., python 3.8, pyIPOPT is no longer supported. Is is possible to update the python-IPOPT interface? Thanks!

I find that the 30bus system in pypower is different from the ieee30 bus system. How could I get the case of IEEE30bus?

Hi,

I'm trying to warm start a solution, but it doesn't seem to have any effect

warm_started_ppc = runopf(warm_ppc, ppopt=ppopt)

What I've done is set all the variables in the bus and gen table with a warm solution thinking that the solver will start from there.
However, when measuring the time to solve the ppc now, I get the same time no matter what I put in the warm_ppc, be it a sollved opf or zeros or anything else, it's like it has no effect.

What is the correct way to warm start a ppc for an AC OPF solution?

Thanks!

I'm trying to use the Ipopt solver but am wondering if you made local changes to your pyipopt package. Specifically, solve only takes two arguments, x0 and userdata. What version of pyipopt and Ipopt are you using?

In ipopt_solver.m:

x, zl, zu, obj, status, zg = nlp.solve(x0, m, userdata)

Thank you for your great work on this port.

As reported by Minjiang Chen on the mailing list:

You just need to pip install tox add a tox.ini in your main directory:

[tox]
envlist = py26,py27,py33,py34

[testenv]
deps = numpy scipy
commands = python pypower/t/test_pypower.py

Then run tox from within your main directory. It will create a virtualenv for each interpreter and execute the tests with that vm. See https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tox for details.

Note: This would work very well along with py.test. Your tox.ini would then look like:

[tox]
envlist = py26,py27,py33,py34

[testenv]
deps = pytest numpy scipy
commands = py.test

how to ' import pypower' to the script,i want to write the code,

As reported by Dominik on the mailing list:

When including more than one generator in my grid, I get an error of creating a singular matrix:

RuntimeError: superlu failure (singular matrix?) at line 100 in file scipy\sparse\linalg\dsolve\SuperLU\SRC\dsnode_bmod.c

This does however not happen when solving the exact same case using MATPOWER after exporting it using 'savecase'.

Hey,
Sorry if it is a trivial question (I am new to pypower).
I am running the following code:

from pypower.api import mygrid,ppoption, runpf, runopf, printpf
ppc = mygrid()

Where "mygrid" is my case file, which is in the same format as all other case files.
However, I receive the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/ayman/PycharmProjects/Project1/RandomTest.py", line 2, in
from pypower.api import mygrid,ppoption, runpf, runopf, printpf
ImportError: cannot import name mygrid

I tried renaming one of the already case files (ex: case14) to "mygrid" to make sure it is the correct format, but I also received the same error. It seems that I cannot call any case file other than the ones that come with the pypower.

Am I doing something wrong ? Is there a fix for that ?
I need to use my own grid with my own parameters.

Thanks.

As reported by Prabakaran on the mailing list:

I recently installed PYPOWER in my Ubuntu 14.04, Python 2.7.6, scipy 0.13.3 and ran the sample commands given in GitHub project page's readme. When running the command,

$ opf -c case24_ieee_rts --solvedcase=rtsout.py

to solve an OPF for the IEEE Reliability Test System and write the solved case to file.

I cannot use makePTDF in pypower
