    Optimal arrangement of different types of distribution generation resources in distribution networks
    (International Journal of Innovative Research in Engineering & Science, 2014-03) Aran Glenn, J.; Thangalakshmi, S.
    This paper proposes the application of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique to find the optimal size and optimum location for the placement of DG in the radial distribution networks for active power compensation by reduction in real power losses and enhancement in voltage profile. In the first segment, the optimal size of DG is calculated at each bus using the exact loss formula and in the second segment the optimal location of DG is found by using the loss sensitivity factor. The analytical expression is based on exact loss formula. The optimal size of DG is calculated at each bus using the exact loss formula and the optimal location of DG is found by using the loss sensitivity factor. The results obtained from the PSO technique have also been compared with the analytical approach results. The proposed technique is tested on 15-bus and 69-bus test systems.
