Abstract:
The distribution system planning is performed with a loop configuration constraint from scratch.With Evolutionary Algorithm,a sample distribution network is designed with a loop configuration,in which the system is operated as radial configuration.It firstly introduces the mathematical model for distribution network planning,then the application of Evolutionary Algorithm for the planning of distribution network.By using the theory mentioned above, Visual C++ is applied to develop the distribution network optimization software.Finally with the optimization process of 17 nodes system being showed,the presented algorithm's utility and validity is verified.
