Utilizing capacitor banks is very conventional in distribution network in order for local compensation of reactive power. This will be more important considering uncertainties including wind generation and loads uncertainty. Harmonics and non-linear loads are other challenges in power system which complicates the capacitor placement problem. Thus, uncertainty and network harmonics have been con...

The various optimal capacitor placement techniques on transmission and distributions lines for line losses reduction and enhancement of voltage stability in the power system network have been proposed so far in different papers. Optimal Capacitor placement is an optimization problem which has an objective to define the sizes and locations of capacitors to be installed. This paper focuses on the...

optimal capacitor placement, considering power system loss reduction, voltage profile improvement, line reactive power decrease and power factor correction, is of particular importance in power system planning and control. the distribution system operator calculates the optimal place, number and capacity of capacitors based on two major purposes: active power loss reduction and return on invest...

This study deals with the design of distributed power systems and optimal capacitor placement based on the ANFIS (Adaptive Network Fuzzy Inference Systems) using Mamdani-type fuzzy inference model. Traditionally, this problem of optimal capacitor placement has been solved through various optimization techniques, but it is less accuracy of finding placement and more time consuming. This can be a...

In this paper, to enhance voltage stability of distribution systems, a Network Topology based load flow results are used to calculate Voltage Stability Index (VSI). Then an algorithm for capacitor placement (CP) based on this voltage stability index is implemented to determine the optimal locations, number and size of fixed and/or switched shunt capacitors for voltage stability enhancement, in ...
