Real world problems such as scientific, engineering, industrial problems are in the form of the multi-objective optimization problems. In order to achieve optimum solutions of such problems, multi-objective optimization algorithms are utilized. In this study, the problem is estimation of single-phase transformer parameters which is one of the engineering problems. This estimation is provided by artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. ABC is developed as a metaheuristic method and simulates foraging of bees. Since the problem is a multi-objective optimization problem, multi-objective ABC (MOABC) is proposed to estimate parameters in the study. This study aims to estimate equivalent circuit parameters using current and voltage values at any known load. Through algorithm, difference between actual and estimated parameter values that is the error has been tried to minimize. The successful results show that the proposed method can be used for a single-phase transformer parameters estimation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
