due to the increasing interest on renewable sources in recent years, the studies on integration of distributed generation to the power grid have rapidly increased. in order to minimize line losses of power systems, it is crucially important to define the size and location of local generation to be placed. minimizing the losses in the system would bring two types of saving, in real life, one is ...

Optimal placement of scattered generator sources in the main and secondary feeders of radial grid reduces energy losses, releases the capacity of existing feeders and improves the existing voltage profile. In this project determine the location and suitable for the production of production resources S cattered in radial feeders of unbalanced distribution networks, a new formulation solution is ...

This paper presents a simple three phase load flow method to solve three-phase unbalanced radial distribution system (RDS). A three phase load flow solution with considering most of load modeling is presented which has good convergence property for any practical distribution networks with practical R/X ratio. It solves a simple algebraic recursive expression of voltage magnitude, and all the da...

To minimize power losses, it is important to determine the location and size of local generators to be placed in unbalanced power distribution systems. On account of some inherent features of unbalanced distribution systems, such as radial structure, large number of nodes, a wide range of X/R ratios, the conventional techniques developed for the transmission systems generally fail on the determ...

This paper deals with a new, efficient power flow method for unbalanced radial distribution systems based on improved backward/forward sweep (BFS) algorithm. This proposed method utilizes simple and flexible numbering scheme and takes full advantage of the radial structure of distribution systems. This method is tested on an 8-bus Three-phase unbalanced distribution system. The numerical test p...
