The main user features in this release are:

  • Better topological processing: Now ConnectivityNodes, BusBars and Buses end up in Buses, and the topology is processed into the NumericalCircuit for consistency. See the Topology processing docs for more info.
  • Integration of the AC/DC power flow developed in the Master Thesis of Raiyan bin Zulkifli. The FUBM (Full Unified Branch Model) converter model is no longer used and converters are modeled as "decoupled" branches without equivalent impedances. This provides far greater convergence properties to ACDC power flows. HvdcLine devices are also included in the numerical process for the first time and not as injections. This allows for the ability to provide controls such as the angle-droop for the first time ever in a power flow algorithm.

As a developers' note: The proxy functions inside the NumericalCircuit have been removed, in favor of functions to properly access indices, admittances and injections.
