Active Power Loss Reduction by Vortex Search Algorithm

Kanagasabai Lenin

Abstract 

In this article, Vortex Search Algorithm (VSA) has been applied to solve the optimal reactive power problem. It is one of the newly projected metaheuristic algorithms which were stimulated from the vertical flow of the stimulated fluids. By using an adaptive step-size adjustment scheme vortex pattern is modelled to do the explore behaviour in VSA. An adaptive step-size modification scheme used in the projected algorithm, the position of the produced candidate solutions is amplified at each iteration. Projected Vortex Search Algorithm has been tested in standard IEEE 14, 57, 300 bus systems and Simulations results show the better performance of the proposed Vortex Search Algorithm (VSA) in reducing the real power loss. 

Keywords: Real power; Transmission loss; Vortex search.
