Abstract

This paper proposed a novel technique based on biogeography-based optimization (BBO) algorithm in order to optimal placement and sizing of distinct types of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the distribution networks which is applied to improve voltage profile as the main factor for power quality improvement and reduce power losses. In order to promote the investigation to be capable in practical terms, the loads are linearly varied in small steps of 1% from 50% to 150% of the base value. The optimal size and location of distinct types of DGs are found out in each load step. This will aid the distribution network operators (DNOs) to have a long term scheduling for the optimal management of DG units and achieve the maximum performance. To verify the efficiency of proposed method, it has been conducted to IEEE 33-bus radial distribution system. Also, simulation results are compared with the analytical approach and HPSO algorithm (mixed binary and typical particle swarm optimization algorithm). The obtained simulation results demonstrate the better performance and effectiveness of the proposed method. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v15i1.8083

Abstract

The duty of protective systems is the timely detection of fault and removing it from the power network. The accuracy of the results and reducing the execution time of the optimizing algorithm are two crucial elements in selecting optimizing algorithms in protective functions. The most important protective elements that are used in power networks are distance and overcurrent relays. In this article, a new algorithm is presented to solve the optimization problem of coordination of overcurrent and distance relays by using Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm which considers the non-linear model overcurrent relays at all stages of setting. The proposed method is tested on a standard 8-bus power system network. Also the results obtained have been compared with other evolutionary algorithms. The results show that the proposed approach can be provide more effective and practical solutions to minimize the time function of the relays and achieving optimal coordination in comparison with previous studies on optimal coordination of overcurrent and distance relays in power system networks.
