The present work of thesis presents some innovative approaches aiming at analyzing and optimizing the distribution system. In the first part (composed of the Chapters 1–4), some innovative methods developed for distribution network reconfiguration, both in single objective framework and in multi- objective framework, are presented and applied. In particular, Chapter 1 shows the general problem of distribution network reconfigu- ration, while Chapter 2 presents the different types of Optimization Methods (OM), by focusing on their nature (deterministic or heuristic) and on the goal they have (single or multi-objective optimization). Chapter 3 introduces the decision-making methods, which have been used for the multi- objective optimization problems (whose application examples are reported in Chapter 5). Chapter 4 reports some innovative approach in the single objective optimization, by analyzing the possibility to apply intraday reconfiguration, by considering the cost of this operation with respect to the initial solution in which the actual configuration is maintained without any change. Chapter 6 presents some tools developed within the European Project SiNGULAR as functions of the main tool DERMAT, aiming at handling the different input data pattern, the correlation among loads and generators, as well as the presence of correlated harmonic sources in the network. Finally, in Appendix A the networks used during the doctoral work are shown, while Appendix B presents an overview of the general aspects and characteristics of the probability-based methods.

Abstract

The present work of thesis presents some innovative approaches aiming at analyzing and optimizing the distribution system. In the first part (composed of the Chapters 1–4), some innovative methods developed for distribution network reconfiguration, both in single objective framework and in multi- objective framework, are presented and applied. In particular, Chapter 1 shows the general problem of distribution network reconfigu- ration, while Chapter 2 presents the different types of Optimization Methods (OM), by focusing on their nature (deterministic or heuristic) and on the goal they have (single or multi-objective optimization). Chapter 3 introduces the decision-making methods, which have been used for the multi- objective optimization problems (whose application examples are reported in Chapter 5). Chapter 4 reports some innovative approach in the single objective optimization, by analyzing the possibility to apply intraday reconfiguration, by considering the cost of this operation with respect to the initial solution in which the actual configuration is maintained without any change. Chapter 6 presents some tools developed within the European Project SiNGULAR as functions of the main tool DERMAT, aiming at handling the different input data pattern, the correlation among loads and generators, as well as the presence of correlated harmonic sources in the network. Finally, in Appendix A the networks used during the doctoral work are shown, while Appendix B presents an overview of the general aspects and characteristics of the probability-based methods.
