Optimal Capacitor Planning for Power Factor Improvement Using Hybrid Particle Swarm and Harmony Search Optimization
Industrial loads reduce the Power Factor (PF) of supply systems, causing increases in power losses, damaging equipment and higher utility bills. Optimization techniques are used in planning reactive sources to improve PF of power systems. However, conventional techniques suffer difficulties in pass...
