Capacitor allocation by approximate reasoning: fuzzy capacitor placement

Maximum Cost Saving Approach for Optimal Capacitor Placement in Radial Distribution Systems using Modified ABC Algorithm

“…From table-9 it is found that the total real power loss before and after capacitor placement are 221.72 kW and 168.92 kW respectively. The power loss obtained with the proposed method is less than the FES method [26] and FA method [28]. It is almost same as Heuristic method [10] and PSO method [18].…”

A New Method of Capacitor Allocation and Sizing in Distribution Network Using Combined Fuzzy - Qv Analysis

“…Authors In [3] provides an evaluation of the practicality and accuracy of the capacitor placement algorithms including fuzzy set theory "FST" used in [4] to solve capacitor allocation problem contribute to better accuracy and practical in the results for consideration of physical node location and discrete capacitor sizes in radial feeders using load flow.…”

Optimal Capacitor Placement Techniques in Transmission and Distribution Networks to Reduce Line Losses and Voltage Stability Enhancement: A Review

“…Damodar et al [12] design a fuzzy approach for identifying the optimal capacitor locations considering two objectives, to minimize the real power loss and to maintain the voltage within the permissible limits. H.Ng et al [13] proposed the capacitor placement problem by using fuzzy approximate reasoning. Masoum et al [14] used fuzzy set theory for the discrete optimization problem of fixed shunt capacitor placement and sizing under harmonic conditions.…”
