Design of experiments to parameter setting in a genetic algorithm for optimal power flow with TCSC device

With ever-increasing demand for electricity and complexity of power system, optimal power system operation issue becomes important. Optimal power flow (OPF) with optimal placement and rating of thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) is a solution to determine the economic operating costs and power flow analysis with in constraint stated below. This paper mainly concerned to minimize total cost of generation with location and rating of TCSC are optimized using genetic algorithm-design of experiment (GA-DOE). To validate the proposed method, simulations are performed on IEEE 30 bus system. The simulation results for IEEE-30 bus system, total cost of generation reduced 0,244 $/hour (0,03%) compared to OPF without TCSC. And active power losses are reduced 0,078 MW (0, 84 %) compared to OPF without TCSC.
