Abstract

In this paper, a mine blast algorithm (MBA) is proposed for optimal allocations and sizing of capacitors in various distribution systems. First, the most candidate buses for installing capacitors are suggested using loss sensitivity factors (LSF). Then, the proposed MBA is employed to deduce the size of capacitors and their locations from the elected buses. The objective function is designed to reduce the total cost and, consequently, to increase the net saving per year. The proposed algorithm is tested on 10 and 85 bus radial distribution systems. The obtained results via the proposed algorithm are compared with others to highlight their benefits. Moreover, the results are introduced to verify the effectiveness of the suggested algorithm to minimize the losses and total cost and to enhance the voltage profile and net saving for various distribution systems and loading conditions.
