Optimal Capacitor Placement and Sizing in Distribution Networks
2020Utilizing capacitor banks in order for local compensation of loads reactive power is common in distribution networks. Using capacitors has positive effects on networks such as power and energy loss reduction, voltage deviation and network harmonic reduction as well as improvement in network power factor. Capacitor placement is applied on the network in

Optimizing line power flows by series capacitor placement
2017 IEEE International Conference on Environment and Electrical Engineering and 2017 IEEE Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Europe (EEEIC / I&CPS Europe), 2017Since series capacitors change the effective transmission line inductive reactance, addition of series capacitors in lines can increase the amount of power transmitted on the same lines. Series capacitors provide reactive power, which can improve the system power factor and help in improving voltage profile.

Optimizing decoupling capacitor placement to reduce effective inductance
2011 IEEE International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility, 2011Optimizing decoupling capacitor placement to insure rapid charge delivery is discussed in this paper. Placing additional decoupling capacitors in close proximity may reduce effective inductance but this inductance is only reduced under certain conditions.

Capacitor Placement Using Ant Colony Optimization and Gradient
2009 15th International Conference on Intelligent System Applications to Power Systems, 2009This paper aims to minimize the total active losses in electrical distribution systems by means of optimal capac- itor bank placement. The proposed methodology to solve this optimization problem is the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) metaheuristic. The gradient method is combined with the meta- heuristic in order to accelerate the convergence of the ACO ...

Optimal Capacitor Placement in Distribution Networks Considering Fault Periods
2018 Twentieth International Middle East Power Systems Conference (MEPCON), 2018Inserting capacitors in distribution systems has a great role in the energy losses reduction and achieving money saving. Many researches defined the optimization problem for the optimal sizing and placing the capacitors. All previous researches defined the problem during normal operation periods only, faults periods weren't considered.
