Optimal Compensation Using Genetic Algorithm for Voltage Stability Enhancement of a Multi-Machine Power System

This paper presents the comparative simulation results of applying Genetic Algorithm (GA) for funding the position of the node and the value of the reactive power for compensation that is the best optimization for the stability of voltage to all nodes in a standard IEEE 14-bus power system For improving the stability of the studied system in normal and short-circuit working conditions, a GA which is useful for optimization is applied to this system by MATLAB software. It can be concluded from the simulation results of a case study based on the power system that the GA can figure out the bus position and optimal value that meet the qualifications of the studied system under severe operating.
