Hello,
I have had some success using CVXOPT with my project (http://
github.com/rwl/pylon) to solve certain traditional power system
analysis problems. I am trying now to determine if I can implement an
AC Optimal Power Flow routine using the cvxopt.solvers.cp function.
This has been achieved in MATPOWER using MATLAB's fmincon function,
but I am confused as to cp's handling of nonlinear constraints. The
online user's guide mentions the evaluation of nonlinear constraints,
but the docstring in cvxprog.py talks only of linear constraints. Is
it possible to solve a problem with a nonlinear objective function and
nonlinear constraints using cp?
Regards,
Richard
