Abstract

Abstract : In this article, a simplified sine cosine algorithm (SSCA) is applied to solve the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) issues by estimating the control variables. This algorithm uses sine cosine functions and generates number of random solutions to obtain the best solution by fluctuating inwards or outwards. The SSCA is implemented in the ORPD problem to find the best control variables to achieve minimum power loss and maximum net savings. Furthermore, the efficacy of SSCA is validated with other recently used algorithms considering three case studies, i.e., IEEE-30, -57, and -118 bus test system. The results show that the SSCA approach finds more precise and superior ORPD solutions. A comparison among SSCA and other methods proves the robustness of SSCA to attain the solution with faster convergence. The statistical analysis is performed to justify the effectiveness of SSCA by yielding minimum operating cost and maximum net savings as compared to other techniques considered in this study.
