Reconfiguración de la topología de un alimentador para la minimización de costos por pérdidas empleando el algoritmo colonia de hormigas

Abstract

The present work uses the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm to reconfigure the feeder topology 0500040V22 in the city of Cuenca, in order to minimize losses of electric power. The implementation was made in Microsoft Excel with Visual Basic that allows the repetitive operations of the algorithm applying electrical restrictions such as demand, voltage limits and voltage drops.
