Abstract

A solution technique using sequential second-order cone programming to solve the optimum power flow problem in low voltage (LV) distribution networks with distributed generation is developed. A novel bound tightening method is suggested to get exact solutions with few iterations. A novel approximation method is suggested to increase exactness by approximating phase angle dependent components. The performance of the suggested solution method is compared with linear programming, genetic algorithm, particle swarm, sequential quadratic programming with multiple start points, and global search-based optimization methods. The exactness of the generated solutions is validated after comparison with a load flow. The proposed algorithm provides better performance in optimality, execution time, and exactness compared to other methods.
