Optimal Placement of Unified Power Flow Controller by TOPSIS Method for Loss Minimization

In order to eliminate active and reactive power losses in the system, this paper proposes TOPSIS DE algorithm for determining best location parameter settings Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). To mitigate losses, UPFC allocation can be achieved by re-dispatching load flows systems. The cost of incorporating into system. As a consequence, proposed objective feature was created address problem. IEEE 14-bus 30-bus systems were used as case studies MATLAB simulations. When compared particle swarm optimization, results show that is simple use, reliable, efficient optimization technique than (PSO). network's significantly reduced putting optimum position determined ranking method.
