520 |a This work presents an approach for the harmonic components estimation problem present in electrical power systems by making use of evolutionary algorithms. The referential data were obtained by the ATP (Alternative Transients Program) software. Compact and simple genetic algorithms were applied to estimate the parameters of non-linear function to generate a waveform as similar as possible to the one provided by the ATP software. The results yielded by the aforementioned evolutionary algorithms were then compared with one another in a number of scenarios, using the values obtained by the waveform of reference generated by the ATP software. The comparisons were used to seek evidence of which algorithm solved the problem in a setting with limited availability of computational resources. Based on the generated results, it has been found that compact genetic algorithm satisfactorily solves the proposed problem and it is the most indicated method, when less computational effort is required.
