ملخص المقالة :
Voltage profile and losses are important factors in a distribution network in which there arevariety of ways to improve them. In this paper, distributed generation (DG) is used as a solutionto improve the above characteristics. Backward/Forward Sweep load flow algorithm is used dueto the inefficiency of usual load flow algorithms because of high R/X ratio and their lack ofconvergence in distribution networks. This algorithm is applied to the system and the best placeto install DG is selected by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO).
