Pseudo-gradient Based Particle Swarm Optimization with Constriction Factor for Multi Objective Optimal Power Flow

This paper proposes a pseudo-gradient based particle swarm optimization with constriction factor (PG-PSOCF) method for solving multiobjective optimal power flow (MOOPF) problem. The proposed PG-PSOCF is the conventional particle swarm optimization based on constriction factor based on pseudo gradient to enhance its search ability for optimization problems. The proposed method is to deal with the MOOPF problem by minimizing the total cost and emission from generators while satisfying various constraints of real and reactive power balance, real and reactive power limits, bus voltage limits, shunt capacitor limits and transmission limits. Test results on the IEEE 30-bus system have indicated that the proposed method is more efficient than many other methods in the literature. Therefore, the proposed PG-PSOCF can be an effectively alternative method for solving the MOOPF problem.
