Network reconfiguration is a nonlinear optimization procedure which calculates a radial structure to optimize the power losses and improve the network reliability index while meeting practical constraints. In this paper, a multi-objective framework is proposed for optimal network reconfiguration with the objective functions of minimization of power losses and improvement of reliability index. T...

abstract: implementing a combined cooling, heating and power system(cchp) to cool, heat and produce electricity is growing rapidly due to its efficiency and low emissions. in this paper, using economic analysis, the size and operation detail of the required gas engine and the specific electricity, cooling and heating load curves for a one year operating period has been determined. the proposed ...

the graphical technique for nonlinear circuits was described that enable us to optimize circuits to obtain maximum output power, maximum efficiency or minimum intermodulation. according to this method a high power amplifier in the ka band was designed. using a nonlinear model of the transistor, optimum slope for load-line was determined so that maximum power at the output was obtainable, then ...

Signal optimization is affected during radio links between a transmitter and a receiver located in adjacent material media with differing optical densities. The optimization is carried out via the automated control theory method. The radio signal obtained after the optimization is coordinated with the two media's electrical characteristics simultaneously; and this enables low power and small an...

Power dissipation has recently emerged as one the most critical design constraints. A wide range of techniques has already been proposed for the optimization of logic circuits for low power. Power management methods are among the most effective techniques for power reduction. These methods detect periods of time during which parts of the circuit are not doing useful work and shut them down by e...

In this article, an effective method to control a power system during emergency conditions is presented. Based on Fuzzy Linear Programming (FLP), a new technique is developed to solve the Load Shedding and Generation Reallocation (LSGR) optimization Problem. The objective function consists of terms of load curtailments and deviations in generation schedules. The constraints are power system var...

Reactive power plays an important role in supporting the real power transfer by maintaining voltage stability and system reliability. It is a critical element for a transmission operator to ensure the reliability of an electric system while minimizing the cost associated with it. The traditional objectives of reactive power dispatch are focused on the technical side of reactive support such as ...
