| contents | We demonstrate that valid inequalities, or lifted nonlinear cuts (LNC), can be projected to tighten the Second Order Cone (SOC), Convex DistFlow (CDF), and Network Flow (NF) relaxations of the AC Optimal Power Flow (AC-OPF) problem. We conduct experiments on 36 cases from the PGLib-OPF library for two objective functions, (1) power generation maximization and (2) generation cost minimization. Significant optimality gap improvements are shown for the maximization problem, where the LNC strengthen the SOC and CDF relaxations in 100% of the test cases, with average and maximum differences in the optimality gaps of 23.1% and 93.5% respectively. The NF relaxation is strengthened in 79.2% of test cases, with average and maximum differences in the optimality gaps of 3.45% and 21.2% respectively. We also study the trade-off between relaxation quality and solve time, demonstrating that the strengthened CDF relaxation outperforms the strengthened SOC formulation in terms of runtime and number of iterations needed, while the strengthened NF formulation is the most scalable with the lowest relaxation quality provided by these LNC. |
