English Abstract
The use of shunt capacitors on distribution system primary feeders can achieve significant benefits in terms of reduced system energy losses, reduced system peak power requirements, released system capacity and improved system voltage characteristics.
Present investigations are devoted to the determination of the optimum size, number and location of capacitors and the optimum switching strategy of switched capacitors in radial distribution feeders with discrete lumped loads so as to maximize overall savings, including the cost of the capacitors.
Emphasis is placed on the application of real feeder data from the Baghdad distribution network, the effect of periodic variation in load cycle and practical loading characteristics of feeders.
MATLAB computer programs are constructed around these problems and several recommendations based on the results obtained are made.
Recommendation made include the application of primary fixed and switched capacitors, and fixed capacitors both at high and low voltage sides of the distribution feeder.
