This paper establishes a new method that adopts the line-flow-based (LFB) approach to develop a transient stability constrained optimal power flow (OPF) analysis called LFB-TSCOPF. The transient energy function (TEF) serves as a direct means of carrying out the stability analysis. The reduction technique was adopted in which the classical machine model was reduced to the internal node model. The proposed method was tested on the WECC 9-bus, three-machine, IEEE 14-bus, five-machine, and the New England 39-bus, ten-machine test systems. The results were compared with other known results from different methods in literature. The results of the active power and total optimal costs are quite promising and consistent with other known methods. The LFB-TSCOPF re-dispatches real power by applying the energy margin performance index as an indication of the generator unit(s) to be rescheduled. The LFB-TSCOPF provides a more comprehensive linear model, reduces computation time and can be useful for online stability studies.
