We study a multiperiod optimal power flow (OPF) problem in unbalanced three-phase radial distribution networks with batteries. To address this problem, we first take the resistance-line battery model that treats lossy batteries by adding resistive lines and virtual buses. Then, we derive a linearization for the power flow equations, called generalized three-phase simplified DistFlow, which accounts for shunt elements. Also, it is exact at a freely chosen point while having globally good performance. Using it, we extend the heuristic iterative OPF algorithm, CoDistFlow, to unbalanced three-phase networks. At convergence, three-phase CoDistFlow gives a solution that satisfies the exact nonlinear power-flow equations and the exact security constraints. To theoretically guarantee the convergence of three-phase CoDistFlow, we develop the forced convergent three-phase CoDistFlow. Moreover, we show how to adapt the three-phase CoDistFlow to solve a scenario-based OPF in the presence of uncertainties, whereas other existing OPF solution methods may not offer this possibility. Finally, we perform evaluations on the IEEE 123-bus test feeder and comparisons with Ipopt.
