Distribution Network Reconfiguration Based On Artificial Networkreconfiguration For Variable Load Profile, Hesham Hanie Youssef, Hazlie Bin Mokhlis, Mohamad Sofian Abu Talip, Mohammad Alsamman, Munir Azam Muhammad, Nurulafiqah Nadzirah Mansor Jan 2020

Distribution Network Reconfiguration Based On Artificial Networkreconfiguration For Variable Load Profile, Hesham Hanie Youssef, Hazlie Bin Mokhlis, Mohamad Sofian Abu Talip, Mohammad Alsamman, Munir Azam Muhammad, Nurulafiqah Nadzirah Mansor

Network reconfiguration is a process to change the open-switches in distribution system for a minimum power loss. In the past, metaheuristic techniques were applied widely for network reconfiguration with consideration of a fixed loading profile. When the loading changes, the current configuration may not be the optimal one. Thus, the technique needs to be executed to find a new optimal configuration based on the latest loading. The process is time-consuming since metaheuristic techniques commonly require high computational times and produces inconsistent results. Therefore, this paper proposes a network reconfiguration technique based on artificial neural network (ANN) for variable loading conditions. …


Opf-Based Reactive Power Planning And Voltage Stability Limit Improvement Under Single Line Outage Contingency Condition Through Evolutionary Algorithms, Sakthivel Padaiyatchi, Mary Daniel Jan 2013

Opf-Based Reactive Power Planning And Voltage Stability Limit Improvement Under Single Line Outage Contingency Condition Through Evolutionary Algorithms, Sakthivel Padaiyatchi, Mary Daniel

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Reactive power planning is vital for maintaining the voltage stability of power systems and evolutionary algorithms are highly useful for achieving this task. This paper compares the effectiveness of the differential evolution (DE) and evolutionary programming (EP) algorithms in optimizing the reactive power planning of power systems under line outage contingency conditions. DE is efficient in exploration through the search space of the problem, while EP is simple and easy to implement. The low cost but fast response thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) device is incorporated to control the power flows. The optimal settings of …


Optimal Placement And Sizing Of Distributed Generations In Distribution Systems For Minimizing Losses And Thd_V Using Evolutionary Programming, Aida Fazliana Abdul Kadir, Azah Mohamed, Hussain Shareef, Mohd Zamri Che Wanik Jan 2013

Optimal Placement And Sizing Of Distributed Generations In Distribution Systems For Minimizing Losses And Thd_V Using Evolutionary Programming, Aida Fazliana Abdul Kadir, Azah Mohamed, Hussain Shareef, Mohd Zamri Che Wanik

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Growing concerns over environmental impacts, improvement of the overall network conditions, and rebate programs offered by governments have led to an increase in the number of distributed generation (DG) units in commercial and domestic electric power production. However, a large number of DG units in a distribution system may sometimes contribute to high levels of harmonic distortion, even though the emission levels of the individual DG units comply with the harmonic standards. It is known that the nonoptimal size and nonoptimal placement of DG units may lead to high power losses, bad voltage profiles, and harmonic propagations. Therefore, this paper …

Considering Transmission Loss For An Economic Dispatch Problem Without Valve-Point Loading Using An Ep-Epso Algorithm, Sevugarathinam Muthu Vijaya Pandian, Keppanagowder Thanushkodi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Economic dispatch (ED) is one of the most important optimization problems in a power system. The objective of ED is sharing the power demand among the online generators while keeping the minimum cost of generation as a constraint. The aim of this paper is to operate an electric power system as economically as possible within its security limits. This paper proposes the following 2 new particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms to solve a nonconvex economic dispatch problem: an efficient PSO is termed as efficient particle swarm optimization (EPSO), and a hybrid of evolutionary programming (EP) and EPSO is termed as …


A Novel Ep Approach For Multi-Area Economic Dispatch With Multiple Fuel Options, P. S. Manoharan, P. S. Kannan, V. Ramanathan Jan 2009

A Novel Ep Approach For Multi-Area Economic Dispatch With Multiple Fuel Options, P. S. Manoharan, P. S. Kannan, V. Ramanathan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents a novel approach to multi-area economic dispatch problems with multiple fuel options using a hybrid evolutionary programming method. The objective is to minimize the operation cost of the entire system while satisfying the tie line constraints. In this paper, EP-LMO (Evolutionary Programming with Levenberg-Marquardt Optimization) technique is proposed to solve multi-area economic dispatch problems with multiple fuel options. The EP-LMO is developed in such a way that a simple evolutionary programming (EP) is applied as a base level search to find the direction of the optimal global region. And Levenberg-Marquardt Optimization (LMO) method is used as a …
