Optimal Under - frequency Load Shedding using Cuckoo Search with Levy Flight Algorithm for Frequency Stability Improvement
Mwaniki, C; Muriithi, C M.; Abungu, N.O; Nyakoe, G N. (International Journal of Emerging Technology and Advanced Engineering, 2015)Frequency stability in a power system is very important as it determines the synchronous speed of electrical machines. Therefore it should remain within acceptable limits even when the system is disturbed. In order to ... -
Optimal Under - voltage Load Shedding using Cuckoo Search with Levy Flight Algorithm for Voltage Stability Improvement
Mwaniki, C; Muriithi, C M.; Abungu, N.O; Nyakoe, G N. (International Journal of Engineering Science Invention, 2015)Voltage stability has become a serious threat of modern power system operation nowadays. To tackle this problem properly, load shedding is a countermeasure taken as a last resort. However, its consequences might result in ...
