Based on the primal-dual interior-point algorithm, the algorithm maintains an updating “filter” at each iteration in order to decide whether to admit correction of iteration point which can avoid effectively oscillation due to the conflict between the decrease of objective function and the satisfaction of constraints and ensure the global convergence. Moreover, the “filter” improves computational efficiency because it filters the unnecessary iteration points. The calculation results of a practical power system indicate that the algorithm can effectively deal with the large number of inequality constraints of the fuzzy model of reactive power optimization and satisfy the requirement of online calculation which realizes to decrease the network loss and maintain specified margins of voltage.展开更多

Then a Filter Collaborative State Transition Algorithm(FCSTA) is presented for solving DRPO problems. Two populations corresponding to two different objectives are employed. Moreover, the filter technique is utilized to deal with constraints. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated through the results obtained for a 24-hour test on Ward & Hale 6 bus, IEEE 14 bus, and IEEE 30 bus test power systems. To substantiate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms, the obtained results are compared with different approaches in the literature.展开更多

Our approach integrates the merits of both ant colony optimization and genetic algorithm and it has two characteristic features. Firstly, since there is instabilities in the global market, implications of global financial crisis and the rapid fluctuations of prices, a fuzzy representation of the optimal power flow problem has been defined, where the input data involve many parameters whose possible values may be assigned by the expert. Secondly, by enhancing ant colony optimization through genetic algorithm, a strong robustness and more effectively algorithm was created. Also, stable Pareto set of solutions has been detected, where in a practical sense only Pareto optimal solutions that are stable are of interest since there are always uncertainties associated with efficiency data. The results on the standard IEEE systems demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed approach to generate true and well-distributed Pareto optimal nondominated solutions of the multiobjective OPF.展开更多

The combined heat and power (CHP) is a system that provides electricity and thermal energy concurrently. For its extraordinary efficiency and significant emission reduction, it is considered a promising energy prospect. The broad application of combined heat and power units requires the joint dispatch of power and heating systems, in which the modelling of combined heat and power units plays a vital role. The present research employs the genetic optimization algorithm to evaluate the cost function, heat and power dispatch values encountered in a system with simple cycle cogeneration unit and quadratic cost function. The system was first modeled to determine the various parameters of combined heat and power units towards solving its economic dispatch problem directly. In order for modelling to be done, a general structure of combined heat and power must be defined. The test system considered consists of four units: two conventional power units, one combined heat and power unit and one heat-only unit. The algorithm was applied to test system while taking into account the power and heat units, bounds of the units and feasible operation region of cogeneration unit. Output decision variables of 4-unit test systems plus cost function from Genetic Algorithm (GA), was determined using appropriate codes. The proposed algorithm produced a well spread and diverse optimal solution and also converged reasonably to the actual optimal solution in 51 iterations. The result obtained compared favourably with that obtained with the direct solution algorithm discussed in a previous paper. We conclude that the genetic algorithm is quite efficient in dealing with non-convex and constrained combined heat and power economic dispatch problem.展开更多

The combined heat and power (CHP) is a system that provides electricity and thermal energy concurrently. For its extraordinary efficiency and significant emission reduction, it is considered a promising energy prospect. The broad application of combined heat and power units requires the joint dispatch of power and heating systems, in which the modelling of combined heat and power units plays a vital role. The present research employs the genetic optimization algorithm to evaluate the cost function, heat and power dispatch values encountered in a system with simple cycle cogeneration unit and quadratic cost function. The system was first modeled to determine the various parameters of combined heat and power units towards solving its economic dispatch problem directly. In order for modelling to be done, a general structure of combined heat and power must be defined. The test system considered consists of four units: two conventional power units, one combined heat and power unit and one heat-only unit. The algorithm was applied to test system while taking into account the power and heat units, bounds of the units and feasible operation region of cogeneration unit. Output decision variables of 4-unit test systems plus cost function from Genetic Algorithm (GA), was determined using appropriate codes. The proposed algorithm produced a well spread and diverse optimal solution and also converged reasonably to the actual optimal solution in 51 iterations. The result obtained compared favourably with that obtained with the direct solution algorithm discussed in a previous paper. We conclude that the genetic algorithm is quite efficient in dealing with non-convex and constrained combined heat and power economic dispatch problem.
