The objective of SCOPF in considering the valve-point loading effect of the unit and the operating limits of FACTS devices is defined not only to minimize total generation cost but also to enhance transmission security, reduce transmission loss, and improve the bus voltage profile under normal or post-contingent states. The proposed NCPSO method involves a new cognitive behavior of particle. The particle can remember its previously visited best and worst positions, thus it can explore effectively the search space. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated for the IEEE 30-bus and 57-bus systems.","PeriodicalId":320068,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Intelligent Systems Applications to Power Systems","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114568078","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}

Para-consistent Logic is a non-classic logic whose foundations allow for the treatment of contradictions without invalidating the conclusions through algorithms named PANs - para-consistent analysis nodes. In the equations of the PANs are calculated signals representing restrictions, risks and configurations of electric power systems networks. The \"pre- Fault state\" represented by the resulting evidence degree from PAN is evaluated together with the \"post-fault\" information in a contingency evaluation. In that way the occurrence type and their parameters are classified by PANet with the purpose of offering an optimized re-establishment sequence to the power system. This method is being validated through off-line tests applied at the Eletropaulo-Eletricidade de Sao Paulo, an electric power distribution utility company of Sao Paulo state, Brazil, which has a distribution network and a model substation of medium range.","PeriodicalId":320068,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Intelligent Systems Applications to Power Systems","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115260546","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}

Due to physical characteristics of Power System, each node of the power system has their own locational marginal price (LMP) indicating the network-related characteristics of the system. In electricity market, it has been on the rise across much of a deregulation market to price market clearing prices considering LMP. It is inefficient to price on each node individually. Hence classification for the whole system into distinct several subsystems based on a dissimilarity measure is typically needed for the efficient operation of the whole system. Moreover, the location information on the system is taken into account in order to properly address the geometric mis-clustering problem such as grouping geometrically distant nodes with dissimilarity measures into a common cluster. Therefore, this paper proposes the improved FCM approach for clustering LMP with location information. We have conducted the clustering in real Korea power system to verify the usefulness of the proposed improved FCM approach.","PeriodicalId":320068,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Intelligent Systems Applications to Power Systems","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124852966","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}

This task is often based on rough principles, given the difficulties on the practical implementation of a fairest process. This paper proposes a methodology based on neural networks for the distribution of power distribution losses among the loads. The process is based on the knowledge of load profiles and on the usual consumption measures. Simulations are carried out for a typical MV network, with an extensive variety of load scenarios. For each scenario, losses were calculated and distributed by the consumers. The allocation criterion is established assuming a distribution proportional to the squared power. Finally, a neural network is trained in order to obtain a fast and accurate losses allocation. Illustrative results support the feasibility of the proposed methodology.","PeriodicalId":320068,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Intelligent Systems Applications to Power Systems","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123258462","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}

This system not only can deal with the advanced information required by fault location for HV overhead transmission lines but accurately locate the fault sites. Thus this method for fault location presented in this paper can thoroughly eliminate the disadvantages in other extant fault location methods, such as convergence to the false root or divergence in the procedure of iteration, which result in the great location error in practice.

The PF-DSM algorithm is used to facilitate economic sharing of generation and reserve across areas, and minimize the total generation cost in the multi-area wind-thermal coordination dispatch problem. Several technique constraints are applied to determine the optimal proportion of wind generator capacity that can be integrated into the multi-area isolated system.

The multi-objective function is formulated by considering the unbalance of phasing currents, the customer service interruption cost and labor cost to perform the optimal rephasing strategy. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology to enhance three-phase balancing of distribution systems, a practical distribution feeder in Taipower with 523 customers is selected for computer simulation. By minimizing the objective function subjected to the operation constraints, the rephasing strategy has been derived by selecting the laterals and distribution transformers for phasing adjustment. The phase currents and neutral currents of test feeder before and after the execution of proposed rephasing strategy have been measured and collected by the SCADA system in Taipower. It is found that the neutral current of test feeder has been reduced to be less than the over neutral current limit by executing the rephasing of laterals and distribution transformers.","PeriodicalId":320068,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Intelligent Systems Applications to Power Systems","volume":"9 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128833223","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}
