A New Meta Heuristic Dragonfly Optimizaion Algorithm for Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch Problem

This research accesses a novel approach of utilising an advanced Meta–heuristic Optimizationtechnique with a single objective to pledge with optimal reactive power dispatch problem inelectrical power system network. The prime focus of reactive power dispatch is to curtail thetotal active power loss in transmission lines. In this detailed study, the dragonfly algorithm wasrealized on standard IEEE-14 bus and 30 bus systems. The outcome of dragonfly algorithmlucidly indicate the capablity of increasing the antecedent random population size for a liableglobal optimization problem, focalized close to the global optimum and contributing preciseoutcome results related to another popular algorithm.
