In this paper a new methodology is used to reconfigure the topology of distribution system and placement of Distributed generators (DG) optimally. This methodology is adopted from the three optimization techniques which are Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Blue Whale Optimization (BWO). The basic principles of the GA is used the optimal switching, the foundation for the swarm searching techniques, PSO is used to find the optimal placement and latest optimization technique, BWO is used to find the size of the type-III DG. The major objective of the paper is to minimize the losses through optimal reconfiguration and optimal placement of DG in balanced radial distribution system.
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.
