Optimal Location and Sizing of Static Var Compensator (SVC) by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Technique for Voltage Stability Enhancement and Power Loss Minimization

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING TRENDS AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 6

Abstract

 In recent years, the transmission lines are operated under the heavily stressed condition, hence there is a risk of consequent voltage instability in the power network. There is a multi-functional control device which can be effectively control the load flow distribution and the power transfer capability is the flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) device. The facts device performance is depend upon its location and parameter setting. In this paper the optimal location and optimal sizing of static var compensator (SVC) is studied on the basis of particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique to minimize load voltage magnitude deviations and network losses using particle swarm optimization have been presented. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is one of the artificial intelligent search approaches which have the potential to solve such problems. For this study, static var compensator (SVC) is chosen as the compensator device. Validation through the implementation on the IEEE 14 bus system shows that the PSO is found feasible to achieve the task.
