MATLAB files/codes for optimal shunt capacitors placement and sizing are hereby shared. The codes were developed as part of works on the thesis titled "Optimal Shunt Capacitors’ Placement and Sizing in Radial Distribution Systems using Multi-Verse Optimizer, Modified Loss Sensitivity Factors and Matlab Matrix Reduction Techniques".
The MATLAB codes are for the optimal shunt capacitor placement and sizing at a single busbar in the 33-bus radial distribution system and they are for:
(a) Purely Metaheuristic: Multi-Verse Optimization (MVO) Algorithm Based Approach
(b) Modified Loss Sensitivity Factors (MLSF) and MVO Algorithm Based Approach
(c) Exhaustive Search Based Approach, and
(d) Exhaustive Search and MVO Algorithm Based Approach
Also shared is an excel file with results for simulation runs for different settings of iterations and search agents number or population.
