The method and algorithm of electric loss evaluation in the problem of optimal reactive power compensation in electric distribution networks

The method and algorithm of electric loss evaluation in distribution networks based on statistic simulation of electric loads is developed. The main advantage of this method is the low labor input, not requiring an interval standardized calculations of steady-state regimes. Application of this method at solving the problem of optimal reactive power compensation in electric distribution systems allows to get solution at specified time interval with sufficient accuracy and reliability for practical purposes without greater increasing the labor input of the optimization problem in comparison with instantaneous regime optimization.
