Optimising Voltage Profile of Distribution Networks with Distributed Generation
(International Journal of Emerging Technology and Advanced Engineering, 2012)
Power utility companies are required to supply customers with power within specified voltage limits. Voltage rise in networks with distributed generators therefore poses a challenge. This paper presents a coordinated network ...
Effects of Distributed Generation penetration on system power losses and voltage profiles
(International Journal of Scientific and Research Publication, 2013)
In present times, the use of DG systems in large amounts in different power distribution systems has become very popular
and is growing on with fast speed. Although it is considered that DG reduces losses and improves ...
Multi-Objective Environmental/Economic Dispatch Solution Using ABC_PSO Hybrid Algorithm
(International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, 2012)
The problem of power system optimization has become a deciding factor in current power system engineering practice with emphasis on cost and emission reduction. The economic and emission dispatch problem has been addressed ...
A combined sensitivity factor based GA-IPSO approach for system loss reduction and voltage profile enhancement
(International Journal of Innovative Research in Engineering & Science, 2013)
Though several algorithms for optimizing DG location and size in a network with the aim of
reducing system power losses and enhancing better voltage profile have already been proposed,
they still suffer from several ...
Distributed Slack Bus Model for a Wind-Based Distributed Generation using Combined Participation Factors
(International Journal of Emerging Technology and Advanced Engineering, 2012)
With the increased penetration of distributed generation into the power distribution system, the traditional load flow analysis that assumes a single slack bus has become impractical. The existing literature focuses on ...
Combined Economic and Emission Dispatch Solution Using ABC_PSO Hybrid Algorithm with Valve Point Loading Effect
(International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, 2012)
The problem of power system optimization has become a deciding factor in current power system engineering practice with emphasis on cost and emission reduction. The economic and emission dispatch problem has been addressed ...
Emission Constrained Economic Dispatch Using Moth Flame Optimization and Bat Hybrid Algorithm
(International Journal of Engineering Research and Technology, 2018)
This paper presents the application of a novel Moth flame optimization and Bat hybrid algorithm in the area of emission constrained economic dispatch with the main goal of minimizing the total cost of electric generation ...
A Case for the Revision of Power Engineering Syllabi at Kenyan Universities
(2005)
This paper presents a summary of the current status of Elec-trical Power Engineering Education at Kenyan universities,followed by a summary of the situation on the same at universities world-wide. Against a backdrop of ...
An experimental prototype for low head small hydro power generation using hydram
(2013)
The global rise in energy demand has resulted to the over exploitation of both renewable and non renewable energy sources. Most feasible hydroelectric power (HEP) plants sites have been exploited and the current ...
