Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCOMPARISON OF OPTIMIZATION TECHNIQUE TO FIND THE OPTIMAL LOCATION OF FACTS CONTROLLERS FOR TRANSMISSION LINEJagadeesh Kumar Muthukrishnan, Subhransu Sekhar Dash, Harish Kiran Selvakumar et al.The aspect of this study is to compare the three different algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA), Enhanced Genetic Algorithm (EGA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to fine the optimal location of the FACTS device in the transmission line. The FACTS devices Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) are selected based on the steady stability … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2013 · 6,677 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of the Ant Colony Search Algorithm to Reactive Power Pricing in an Open Electricity MarketA. Ketabi, A. Ali BabaeeDeveloping an accurate and feasible method for reactive power pricing is important in the electricity market. In conventional optimal power flow models the production cost of reactive power was ignored. In this study, the production cost of reactive power was comprised into the objective function of the OPF problem. Then, using ant colony search algorithm, the optimal problem was solved. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,261 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Multi-Objective HPSO Algorithm Approach for Optimally Location of UPFC in Deregulated Power SystemsSeyed Abbas Taher, Seyed Mohammad Hadi TabeiThis paper presents the application of hybrid particle swarm optimization technique to find optimal location of unified power flow controller to achieve optimal power flow. Objective function in the OPF, that is to be minimized, are the overall cost functions, which include the total active and reactive production cost function of the generators and installation cost of UPFCs. The OPF … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,975 accessesView PDF Cite
