TITLE Invasive Weed Optimization for Optimal Capacitor Placement on a Radial Distribution System |
 PDF |
|
ABSTRACT In this study, Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) is presented to optimize the size of capacitors in a radial distribution system to reduce power loss and improve voltage profile. In this research, the Power Loss Index is used to identify weak buses in the distribution system, and IWO was used to determine the size of capacitors that should be installed at the weak buses to reduce power losses and enhance the voltage profile. The proposed method was created in MATLAB and tested using a variety of conventional tests. In terms of power loss, the simulation results generated by the proposed methodology were compared to the base case system, and the results were compared to the existing approaches available. |
