Abstract

This study performed a comparative analysis of five new meta-heuristic algorithms specifically adopted based on two general classifications; namely, nature-inspired, which includes artificial eco-system optimization (AEO), African vulture optimization algorithm (AVOA), gorilla troop optimization (GTO), and non-nature-inspired or based on mathematical and physics concepts, which includes gradient-based optimization (GBO) and Runge Kutta optimization (RUN) for optimal tuning of multi-machine power system stabilizers (PSSs). To achieve this aim, the algorithms were applied in the PSS design for a multi-machine smart power system. The PSS design was formulated as an optimization problem, and the eigenvalue-based objective function was adopted to improve the damping of electromechanical modes. The expressed objective function helped to determine the stabilizer parameters and enhanced the dynamic performance of the multi-machine power system. The performance of the algorithms in the PSS’s design was evaluated using the Western System Coordinating Council (WSCC) multi-machine power test system. The results obtained were compared with each other. When compared to nature-inspired algorithms (AEO, AVOA, and GTO), non-nature-inspired algorithms (GBO and RUN) reduced low-frequency oscillations faster by improving the damping of electromechanical modes and providing a better convergence ratio and statistical performance.
