Pareto front of multi-objective optimal reactive power dispatch

Abstract

In this paper, we are aimed to search the Pareto front of multi-objective optimal reactive power dispatch by the primal dual interior point method. In the front part are the introductions of optimal reactive power dispatch model, the concepts of Pareto optimum solution and Pareto front, and the primal dual interior point method. In the rear part, the process of searching Pareto front will be presented, followed by the case study which consists of three cases. By conducting case study, we concludes that the primal dual interior point method performs effectively as well as efficiently in searching the Pareto front of multi-objective optimal reactive power dispatch.
