Emission constrained optimal power flow by big-bang and big-crunch optimization

الملخص EN

This paper presents an Emission Constrained Optimal Power Flow(ECOPF) using a numerically simple heuristic Big-Bang and Big-Crunch(BB-BC) optimization.

The proposed optimization technique is applied to solve this highly non-linear, non-convex and multi objective optimization problem for N-0( without Transmission Line contingency) and N-1 (one transmission line contingency) cases of Power system network.

The BB-BC method is tested on Gangour -25 and Modified IEEE-30 bus power transmission systems and its robustness is compared with Particle Swarm Optimization with Constriction Factor (PSOCF) .The outcome of comparaison confirms the promising nature of BB-BC in solving Emission Constrained Optimal power flow.
