Abstract

Distribution network reconfiguration for loss minimization is a complex, large-scale combinatorial optimization problem In this paper, a novel method called bacterial foraging optimization algorithm with particle swarm optimization strategy (BF-PSO) algorithm is applied to solve this problem To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, the optimization calculations of IEEE 69-bus testing system by the presented method are conducted and the calculation results are compared with pertinent literatures Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm possesses fast convergence speed while the quality of solution and stability is ensured.
