Chaos Search Method for Reconfiguration Problem in Unbalanced Distribution Systems

불평형 배전계통의 선로 재구성문제를 위한 카오스 탐색법 응용

In this paper, we applied a chaos search method for feeder reconfiguration problem in unbalanced distribution system. Chaos method, in optimization problem, searches the global optimal solution on the regularity of chaotic motions and more easily escapes from local or near optimal solution than stochastic optimization algorithms. The chaos search method applied to the IEEE 13 unbalanced test feeder systems, and the test results indicate that it is able to determine appropriate switching options for global optimum configuration.
