Reactive Power Optimization Based On Genetic Algorithmin In City Distribution Network

A genetic algorithm for reactive power optimizatiori in distributionnetwork is presented on this paper. The mathematical model is establishedwhich is fit for practical aPplication, taking the least summation of activepower losses, voltage beyond 1imits and capacitor inve$tment cost intoconsideration. In the algorithm, some genetic operators ar9 improved aftergoing deep into researching, and an aPplication program is programmed.The mended measures are used in IEEE 30 nodes distribution network andthe results indicate that these improvements are propitious\ to optimizationof reactive power compensation.;Zhang Kun (Power System and:its Automation)Directed by Pro f Pan Yunjiang...
