Advanced Voltage Dependent Dynamic Programming Algorithm for the Optimization of Shunt Capacitors in Radial Distribution Systems

摘要

This paper presents a new voltage dependent model for optimal reactive compensation planning of radial dis- tribution systems. It is of combinatorial type, with non-linear and non-differentiable criterion function, in- cluding nonequality constraints. The problem solution consists of an effective accelerated search, based on the dynamic programming. Two different search procedures are proposed. The first procedure employs nor- malized simultaneous load duration curves of consumer's nodes, arranged in decreased sequence and the sec- ond one considers the case of non-simultaneous and unarranged load diagrams.
