Enhancement of ATC with TCSC and SVC by Using RGA

📘 In this book use of TCSC and SVC to maximize Available Transfer Capability (ATC) generally defined as the maximum power transfer transaction between a specific power-seller and a power-buyer in a network during normal and contingency cases. ATC is computed using Continuous Power Flow (CPF) method considering both line thermal limit as well as bus voltage limits. Real-code Genetic Algorithm is used as the optimization tool to determine the location as well as the controlling parameter of TCSC or Simultaneously. The performance of the Real-code Genetic Algorithm has been tested on IEEE 14-Bus System and IEEE 24-Bus Reliability Test System.
