            Abstract : 
The author´s consider a new formulation of optimal power flow (OPF) that makes it eminently suitable for accurate incremental modeling. G. Zoutendijk´s method of feasible directions (1960) for solving the nonlinear programming problems is adapted for the solution of the OPF. Hydraulic modeling of systems with a considerable share of hydraulic generation is considered. The method is very efficient as it is designed to exploit the special structure of the problem
