Abstract

 In this paper, Ant colony optimization is proposed for optimizing the power system losses and optimal setting of FACTS device. Flexible Alternating Current transmission System (FACTS) devices plays vital role in improving system performance and increasing transmission capacity without adding any new lines. Proposed system uses Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) technique for finding out the optimal number, the optimal locations, and the optimal parameter setting of UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller) device to achieve maximum system load ability in the system with minimum installation cost. The voltage limits for the buses and lines thermal limits are taken as constraints during the optimization. For validate the proposed system IEEE 30 and 14-bus system is considered for finding the optimal location and size of UPFC device.

Keyphrases: Ant Colony Optimization(ACO), Cost function of UPFC, optimal location
