Abstract:
This dissertation treats of the reactive compensation problem in radial
distribution feeders. The problem is formulated in a such way that the variables are discrete,
therefore compatible with the reality. The losses are calculated without approach, that is,
they are considered dependents of the voltage. The problem is solved using the Ascendent
Discrete Programming (PDA) technique that has some similarity with the dynamic
programming technique, but its implementation simpler and offers inclusion easiness of
variable costs of the most different natures and operational restrictions in the objective
function. A routine computacional developed with base in PDA technique and in the power
summation method is implemented. This routine is applied to the study of the reactive
compensation of the feeder PNO007 of CEAL (Companhia Energetica de Alagoas).
