This paper presets a methodology of improving a conventional model in power systems using Genetic Algorithms(GAs) and suggests a GAs-based model which can directly solve the real-valued optimum in an optimization procedure. In applying GAs to the power flow, a new fitness mapping method is proposed using the proposed using the probability distribution function for all the payoffs in the population pool. In this approach, both the notions on a way of the genetic representation, and a realization of the genetic operators are fully discussed to evaluate he GAs' effectiveness. The proposed method is applied to IEEE 5-bus, 14-bus and 25-bus systems and, the results of computational experiments suggest a direct applicability of GAs to more complicated power system problems even if they contain nonlinear algebraic equations.
