In the method, the high-potential buses are identified using the sequential power loss index, and the PSO algorithm is used to find the optimal size and location of capacitors, and the authors in have developed enhanced particle swarm optimization (EPSO) for the optimal placement of capacitors to reduce loss in the distribution system.
The allocation and sizing of capacitors in the suitability position reduce the real power loss and enhance the voltage profiles. Metaheuristic algorithms are an important technique for finding the best allocation and rating of capacitors.
Capacitance is the property of a capacitor. Capacitance depends on the area of the conductors, on the distance between the conductors and on the type of insulating material used. Introducing capacitors into a circuit causes the current to lead the voltage in phase.
The results show that the approach works better in minimizing the operating costs and enhancing the voltage profile by lowering the power loss. Hybrid optimization of particle swarm (PSO) and sequential power loss index (SPLI) has been used to optimal capacitor allocation in radial distribution networks for annual cost reduction .
The ACO parameters are adjusted to find their optimal values. The ACO algorithm can be applied to find the optimal capacitor placement using the following steps: Insert the control variables that represent the capacitor locations randomly between 0 and 1 in the cases of fixed, switched and the combination of fixed and switched capacitors.
The multiobjective ideal placement of capacitors and DGs at different load levels using the proposed optimization technique would have to be applied. Whale optimization. The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest to report regarding the present study.
