Abstract

Optimal power flow (OPF) is a challenging optimization problem with a large number of variables and constraints. To overcome the OPF issue, high-performance optimization algorithms are needed. In this direction, this paper has been centered on the optimization of the OPF with the circulatory system-based optimization (CSBO) algorithm. The performance of the algorithm was evaluated on the IEEE 57- and 118-bus power networks for the optimization of non-convex OPF objectives, i.e., fuel cost, power loss, voltage deviation, and enhancement of voltage stability. The solution quality of CSBO is compared with state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms such as Artificial Rabbits Optimization (ARO), African Vultures Optimization Algorithm (AVOA), and Chaos Game Optimization (CGO). Based on the OPF results, it is seen that the best fuel cost and voltage deviation results are calculated to be 41666.2344 $/h and 0.5871 p.u with the CSBO algorithm for the IEEE 57-bus power system. The CSBO algorithm obtained the best objective function results for the IEEE 118-bus power network with a fuel cost of 134934.3140 $/h and a power loss of 16.4688 MW. In conclusion, the present paper reports that the CSBO is a powerful and efficient metaheuristic algorithm to solve the OPF problem.
