This paper presents a Genetic Algorithm (GA) based approach for solving optimal Reactive Power Dispatch (RPD) including voltage stability limit in power systems. The monitoring methodology for voltage stability is based on the L-index of load buses. Bus voltage magnitudes, transformer tap settings and reactive power generation of capacitor banks are the control variables. A binary-coded GA with...

Linear active-power-only DC power flow approximations are pervasive in the planning and control of power systems. However, these approximations fail to capture reactive power and voltage magnitudes, both of which are necessary in many applications to ensure voltage stability and AC power flow feasibility. This paper proposes linear-programming models (the LPAC models) that incorporate reactive ...

Overvoltage is becoming increasingly prevalent in distribution networks with high penetration of renewable distributed energy sources (DERs). Local control converter-based resources a flexible and scalable method to prevent this growing issue. Reactive power used for voltage many local schemes. However, the typical range R/X ratios lines indicates that mitigation overvoltage often requires exce...

The paper intends to develop the artificial neural network control algorithm for the control of DSTATCOM for the improvement of power quality. The presence of nonlinear loads makes the voltage to be deviated and current to be distorted from its sinusoidal waveform quality. Thus harmonics elimination, load balancing and voltage regulation is the heavy task that has to be accomplished to maintain...

this paper presents a new centralized adaptive method under frequency load shedding. sometimes, after initial frequency drop following severe disturbances, although the system frequency returns to its permissible value, however, the system might become unstable due to voltage problems. in this regard, the paper proposes a new centralized adaptive load shedding method to enhance the voltage stab...

Abstract: The paper intends to develop the artificial neural network control algorithm for the control of DSTATCOM for the improvement of power quality. The presence of nonlinear loads makes the voltage to be deviated and current to be distorted from its sinusoidal waveform quality. Thus harmonics elimination, load balancing and voltage regulation is the heavy task that has to be accomplished t...
