Voltage and Reactive Power Control by Parallel Calculation Processing
Abstract
This paper presents a new approach to optimal voltage and reactive power control based on a genetic algorithm (GA) and a tabu search (TS). To reduce time to calculate the control procedure, the parallel computation using Linux is executed. In addition, TS and GA are calculated by the master and each slave based on the parallel program language. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by practical 118-bus system.
