Abstract
A new and powerful approach called Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA) is suggested in this paper, for optimal siting and sizing of capacitors for an IEEE distribution network. First, the most nominee buses for installing capacitors are developed using various indices. Loss Sensitivity Factors (LSF), Voltage Stability Index (VSI), and Power Loss Index (PLI) are employed to determine the selected buses. Then the proposed SMA is used to deduce the size of capacitors and their positions from the picked buses. The objective function is introduced to minimize the net cost and then, increase the total saving per year. The developed approach is tested on the IEEE distribution network. The obtained results are compared with others to highlight the advantages of the developed approach. Also, the results are presented to confirm its influence in minifying the losses, and net cost and to improve the voltage profile and total saving for a radial distribution network.
期刊介绍：
WSEAS Transactions on Power Systems publishes original research papers relating to electric power and energy. We aim to bring important work to a wide international audience and therefore only publish papers of exceptional scientific value that advance our understanding of these particular areas. The research presented must transcend the limits of case studies, while both experimental and theoretical studies are accepted. It is a multi-disciplinary journal and therefore its content mirrors the diverse interests and approaches of scholars involved with generation, transmission & distribution planning, alternative energy systems, power market, switching and related areas. We also welcome scholarly contributions from officials with government agencies, international agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
