The UCP is a mixed integer large scale non linear program. If the number of unit is more and the time horizon is large, then the analysis become more complex. That is the reason still researches are active in finding the solution for unit commitment problem. In this paper the proposed methodology by considering the load as a probabilistic variable instead of regular deterministic one. By considering the load in this way we can solve the problem of UCP as a real time problem. In the proposed methodology LR method is used to separate the problem in to a primal and dual problem and each sub-problem is solved by using dynamic programming. The economic dispatch problem is solved by particle swarm optimization. By comparing the results with conventional method the proposed methodology gives the schedule of generator with minimum production cost.","PeriodicalId":158903,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Power and Energy Systems","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121982014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under such condition, attempt to make power factor unity, using shunt compensator, overcompensates the system and excess capacitor effectively increases the system current which is not desirable. In this paper, a new method for reactive power compensation using passive components is presented. The proposed approach is based on current minimization and does not need any reactive power definition for compensation. Reactive power demand of the load is calculated in terms of desired shunt capacitor current, using addition of test capacitor in the system. Capacitive current required to minimize the circuit current is calculated from the measured values of change in circuit current and test capacitor current. Mathematical equations are developed for the computation of compensation capacitor under sinusoidal as well as non sinusoidal conditions. The method has been validated by testing under various load conditions with an experimental prototype developed using 8 bit microcontroller ATMega32.","PeriodicalId":158903,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Power and Energy Systems","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133038659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Generally in any power system operation, our main aim is to operate a power system optimally. Optimality can be achieved by minimizing the cost, losses and maintaining voltage profile. So in order to achieve the above conditions that is to operate a system in an optimal way we choose various optimization techniques namely, optimal power flow by Newton method (OPF) and Interior Point (IP) method. In this paper a 5-BUS test system is taken and analyzed using the above mentioned two methods. It is shown that how the system power losses are decreased and voltage profiles are increased after using Interior Point (IP) method in this model.

EMD is to method which decomposes a non stationary signal into mono component and symmetric component signals called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs). Further the Hilbert Transform (HT) of IMF provides magnitude and phase angle information. The characteristic features of the first three IMFs of each phase are used as inputs to the classifier Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) for identification of fault type. Four types of shunt faults are taken for classification. A comparison is also made with wavelet Transform (WT). Simulation results show that the classification accuracy is better for EMD, which proves that the method is efficient in classifying the faults.","PeriodicalId":158903,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Power and Energy Systems","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115386685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
