Optimal Sizing and Location of Capacitor Banks in Distorted Distribution Networks with Distributed Wind Generation
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, a modified simulated annealing technique is proposed for simultaneous improvement of power quality and optimal placement and sizing of fixed capacitor banks in a modern distribution network. The later is supplying a mix of linear and nonlinear loads imposing voltage and current harmonics. Besides, they include integrated variable-speed wind turbines as distributed generation. The stochastic power output of the wind generation is considered by performing Monte-Carlo simulation of the distribution power flow. Operational and power quality constraints include the bounds of node voltage magnitude, node voltage total harmonic distortion and the number/size of installed capacitors. The net annual economic saving is defined as the associated objective function. Solution results are discussed for a model distorted distribution system under different conditions.
