Description
Summary:Introduction— The optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem consists on finding the optimal settings of several reactive power resources in order to minimize system power losses. The ORPD is a complex combinatorial optimization problem that involves discrete and continuous variables as well as a nonlinear objective function and nonlinear constraints. Objective— This article seeks to compare the performance of the mean-variance mapping optimization (MVMO) algorithm with other techniques reported in the specialized literature applied to the ORPD solution. Methodology— Two different constraint handling approaches are implemented within the MVMO algorithm: a conventional penalization of deviations from feasible solutions and a penalization by means of a product of subfunctions that serves to identify both when a solution is optimal and feasible. Several tests are carried out in IEEE benchmark power systems of 30 and 57 buses. Conclusions— The MVMO algorithm is effective in solving the ORPD problem. Results evidence that the MVMO algorithm outperforms or matches the quality of solutions reported by several solution techniques reported in the technical literature. The alternative handling constraint proposed for the MVMO reduces the computation time and guarantees both feasibility and optimality of the solutions found.
