Otimização da localização de transformadores em redes de distribuição.

Abstract

This study consists of the establishment of a function to control the load of transformers, criteria for balancing in the phases of the transformer, as well as the development of an algorithm to obtain the best allocation of transformers in a distribution system, such that the voltage is minimized. The methods were based on the application of STATISTICS and GRAPH THEORY, in order to reduce losses, voltage drop and provide greater reliability in energy distribution networks. The efficiency of this method was demonstrated from the results obtained by the process adopted at Companhia de Eletricidade da Borborema and the one developed in this work.
