Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/6696The localization of capacitors banks in the electric power distribution networks, correctly sized, looks for to compensate eventual excesses of circulation of reactive power for transmission lines, what implies the reduction of operational costs for the reduction of the energy losses and an increase of the capacity of transmission of active power assuring the established levels of voltage and power factor simultaneously. The proliferation of the nonlinear loads produced a change in the scenarios of study of the electric power systems due to the degradation effects that the harmonic generated by them cause about the quality of the electric power. Considering this new scenario, this thesis has as general objective to develop a computational tool using computational intelligence supported in genetic algorithms (GA), for the multiobjective optimization of the reactive power compensation in distribution electric networks able to locate and size in a good way the necessary compensation units to achieve the best economic benefits and the maintenance of the indexes of quality of the energy settled down by the Brazilian norms. As technological innovation of the work, the developed computational tool allows to optimize the compensation of the reactive power to improve the power factor in polluted distribution networks with harmonics that, differently of previous methods, not alone it uses capacitors banks, but also harmonic filters with that objective. The NSGA-II algorithm is used to determine optimal solutions of Pareto for the problem and it allows the specialist to determine the most effective solutions. The formulation proposed in this thesis for the solution of the problem presents several novelties being able to highlight that the achieved solution allows to determine the compensation of reactive power in systems with certain harmonic penetration, complying with pertinent standards of power quality, with respect to the tolerated levels of harmonic distortion.porAcesso AbertoAlgoritmos genéticosDistribuição de energia elétricaCompensação de potência reativaHarmônicos (Ondas elétricas)Qualidade de energia elétricaDistribuição de energiaGenetics algorithmsHarmonics (electrics waves)Electric power qualityElectric power distributionTeseCNPQ::CIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::CIENCIA DA COMPUTACAO::MATEMATICA DA COMPUTACAO::MODELOS ANALITICOS E DE SIMULACAOCNPQ::ENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA ELETRICA::SISTEMAS ELETRICOS DE POTENCIA::MEDICAO, CONTROLE, CORRECAO E PROTECAO DE SISTEMAS ELETRICOS DE POTENCIA
