Optimal capacitor allocation in distribution systems has been studied for a long times. It is an optimization problem which has an objective to define the optimal sizes and locations ofcapacitors to be installed.This paper presents a new methodology using particle swarm optimization (PSO) Algorithm for the placement of capacitors on the distribution systems to reduce the power losses and to imp...

Regarding the problem of short driving distance pure electric vehicles, a battery, super-capacitor, and DC/DC converter are combined to form hybrid energy storage system (HESS). A fuzzy adaptive filtering-based management strategy (FAFBEMS) is proposed allocate required power vehicle. Firstly, state charge (SOC) super-capacitor limited according driving/braking mode vehicle ensure that it in su...

In distribution systems, in order to diminish power losses and keep voltage profiles within acceptable limits, network reconfiguration and capacitor placement are commonly used. In this paper, the Hybrid Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (HSFLA) is used to optimize balanced and unbalanced radial distribution systems by means of a network reconfiguration and capacitor placement. High accuracy and ...
