Design of novel DC-DC interleaved boost converter for BLDC application.

The gradual increment of renewable energy sources (RES) integration in the power generation system is involved in achieving the maximum power demand in the world. In RES fuel cells are used for storage systems of energy. The increment and decrement of voltage level can be controlled by the different types of converters as per the application.

An enhanced bacterial foraging algorithm approach for optimal power flow problem including FACTS devices considering system loadability.

Obtaining optimal power flow solution is a strenuous task for any power system engineer. The inclusion of FACTS devices in the power system network adds to its complexity. The dual objective of OPF with fuel cost minimization along with FACTS device location for IEEE 30 bus is considered and solved using proposed Enhanced Bacterial Foraging algorithm (EBFA).
