Maximum Loadability Identification Using Self-Tuning Algorithm Considering Voltage Limit

Abstract:

Due to the complexity of power system nowadays, voltage limit has become a concerned issue. This phenomenon attracted numerous studies in finding the ultimate solution. This paper presents the development of self-tuning technique for identifying maximum loadability for selected buses in a power system network. The algorithm is able to perform fast process in consideration of the voltage limit between 0.9 p.u. to 1.05 p.u. as the acceptable voltage limit in power system community. The proposed concept is conducted for single and multi-load increment; executed on IEEE 14-Bus RTS and IEEE 26-Bus RTS. The proposed technique is feasible for larger transmission system implementation, which in turn avoid computation burden to power system operators.
