A Study on the Real Power Optimization Using Interior-Point Method

IP법을 이용한 유효전력제어에 관한 연구

Different optimization algorithms have been proposed to solve real and reactive power optimization problems. Most of all, linear programming techniques that employed a simplex method have been extensively used. But, the growth in the size of power systems demands faster and more reliable optimization techniques. An Interior Point(IP) mehod is based on an interior point approach to aim the solution trajectory toward the optimal point and is converged to the solution faster than the simplex method. This paper deals with the use of Successive Linear Programming(SLP) for the solution of the Security Constrained Economic Dispatch(SCED) problem. This problem is solved using the IP method. A comparison with simplex method shows that the interior point technique is reliable and faster than the simplex algorithm.
