Abstract (English): The distribution network suffers from low voltage problems, low frequency, and rising power losses greater than transmission systems. Load shedding is one solution to these challenges and is widely regarded as the last choice for avoiding voltage collapse and outages caused by significant disturbances. The conventional approach to load shedding reduces loads without regard for their significance until the voltage of the network is enhanced. Shedding loads without taking priority into account will cause power interruptions in critical facilities. In this paper, PSO-ANN algorithm-based load shedding to improve the voltage and frequency of distribution networks. Furthermore, a multi-objective function is developed that takes into account the linear static voltage stability margin (VSM) and the amount of load reduction. The aim of the work is to obtain the optimal level of voltage stability and remaining load when implementing load shedding while maintaining the load priority of each bus in the distribution network. Using MATLAB software requirements, the proposed technique has been implemented for two scenarios (overload, line disconnection) of the IEEE 33 bus system. The results showed that the proposed technique is the most distinctive compared to the results of the voltage sensitivity method and the conventional approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Arabic): يركز المقال على تطوير طريقة مثلى لخفض الأحمال عند انخفاض الجهد (UVLS) في شبكات التوزيع الكهربائية باستخدام خوارزمية هجينة تجمع بين تحسين سرب الجسيمات (PSO) والشبكات العصبية الاصطناعية (ANN). تهدف هذه الطريقة التي تعتمد على تدريب الشبكة العصبية الاصطناعية بواسطة خوارزمية تحسين سرب الجسيمات إلى تعزيز هامش استقرار الجهد (VSM)، والحفاظ على أولويات الأحمال، وتقليل خسائر الطاقة، وتحسين ملفات التردد والجهد أثناء الاضطرابات مثل الأحمال الزائدة وانقطاع الخطوط. تم تنفيذ واختبار الطريقة المقترحة على نظام IEEE المكون من 33 نقطة توزيع تحت سيناريوهات مختلفة، حيث أظهرت أداءً متفوقًا مقارنة بأساليب خفض الأحمال التقليدية والمعتمدة على الحساسية من خلال تحقيق استقرار جهد أعلى، واحتفاظ أكبر بالأحمال ضمن حدود الأولوية، وتقليل كبير في خسائر القدرة الفعالة والقدرة المتفاعلة. تشير الدراسة إلى أن خوارزمية PSO-ANN توفر حلاً فعالاً وموثوقًا لخفض الأحمال الطارئ في شبكات التوزيع، مع تطبيقات مستقبلية محتملة تشمل سيناريوهات الطوارئ المتعددة وأنظمة التوزيع العراقية الواقعية.
