TLDR
Test results show that the proposed feeder reconfiguration method can effectively ensure the loss minimization, and IWOA is used to find the optimal solution.Abstract:
The distribution network carries electricity from the transmission system and delivers it to consumers. Distribution losses account for major part of power system losses. The low-voltage operation in the distribution system is a major reason for higher technical losses due to inherent properties of the network. In this paper, a method based on invasive weed optimization algorithm (IWOA) is proposed for distribution network reconfiguration with the objective of real power loss minimization. The feeder reconfiguration problem is formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem, and IWOA is used to find the optimal solution. The proposed method is implemented on standard 16-bus test system [1]. Test results show that the proposed feeder reconfiguration method can effectively ensure the loss minimization [2].read more

Swapan Kumar Goswami,S.K. Basu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a power-flow-minimum heuristic algorithm for determining the minimum loss configuration of radial distribution networks is presented. But the algorithm is based on the concept of optimum flow pattern which is determined by solving the KVL and KCL (Kirchoff's voltage and current laws) equations of the network.
