Reconfiguración del sistema de distribución para el mejoramiento del perfil de voltaje basado en el algoritmo de optimización de forrajeo para mantarrayas

Abstract

The present research focuses on the topological reconfiguration of distribution systems by using an optimization algorithm based on foraging for stingrays in combination with the fast decoupled Newton-Raphson power flow method. These algorithms are applied with the objective of determining the optimal topology in distribution systems, considering variations in load parameters. The topological reconfiguration optimization problem is considered as a multi-objective function which emphasizes minimizing power losses and voltage variation rate. This is done within constraints related to voltage, current, radiality and loadability. The topological analysis for reconfiguration focuses on the creation of meshes to determine the opening or closing of the line disconnectors, guaranteeing the radiality of the system and improving the process of searching for the optimum topological configuration. This analysis focuses on the management of system incidence matrices to determine the possible disconnector configurations. To evaluate the efficiency and performance of these algorithms, specific test systems are used. For each test system, several performance metrics are analyzed, such as algorithm convergence, execution time, quality of the solution found and the ability to meet the established technical and operational constraints.
