Application of Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm for Multiobjective Optimal Design of Distribution TransformerBy H D Mehta, Rajesh Patel
Abstract: AbstractIn today’s competitive environment, transformer manufacturers are faced with the exigent task of yielding optimum performance at lowest cost. Considering the aspect of energy shortage and increase in its cost, the complexity of achieving the optimal balance between transformer manufacturing costs and transformer performance is a herculean task, demanding great amount of attempts to reach satisfactory results. To cater with the problem of minimizing transformer losses and cost simultaneously, this …

Comparative Performance Analysis of Swarm and Intelligent Evolutionary Techniques for Optimal Design of Distribution TransformerBy H D Mehta, R M Patel
Abstract: This paper addresses the method of optimal design of a three phase distribution transformer using Genetic Algorithms (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Teaching-Learning-Based-Optimization Algorithm (TLBO). The design and analysis programs have been developed for constrained optimal design with cost as the objective function. The active part cost of the transformer has been minimized keeping in view BEE (Bureau of Energy Efficiency) standards and constraints. A design example on a …
