Part I presents two power flow models, formulates OPF and their relaxations in each model, and proves equivalence relations among them. Part II presents sufficient conditions under which the convex relaxations are exact.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-05-05T01:50:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "optimal power flow", "convex relaxation", "formulations", "power flow models", "tutorial summarizes" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1405.0766L" } } }
