Abstract :
An implementation of an interior point method to the optimal reactive dispatch problem is described. The interior point method used is based on the primal-dual algorithm and the numerical results in large scale networks (1832 and 3467 bus systems) have shown that this technique can be very effective to some optimal power flow applications
