Optimization of the power consumption mode of pumping stations of “Suv Okova” by reactive power

Abstract

The optimal modes of the existing compensating devices under operating conditions were determined. Minimum power and energy losses were taken as optimality criteria. The unconstrained optimization problem was considered, i.e., finding the absolute minimum. When solving the problem to find the optimal mode of operation of the “SUV OKOVA” network, a relative minimum was found since the system of constraints has a nonlinear form. The problem of conditional optimization in terms of reactive power is solved, for which the gradient method of quadratic programming is used.
