For this problem, it is important to establish the effective model and algorithm. This paper examines the decoupled conditions that affect the solution optimality to this problem. It proposes an effective model and solution method. Based on the look-ahead technique, it finds the number of time intervals to guarantee the solution optimality. Next, an efficient technique for finding the optimal solution via the interior point methods is described. Test cases, which include dispatching six units over 5 time intervals on the IEEE 30 test system with line flows and ramp constraints are presented. Results indicate that the computational effort as measured by iteration counts or execution time varies only modestly with the problem size.展开更多

Its main advantages are simplicity and quick progress in the early iterations. In this work, to accelerate the convergence of the interior point method, few iterations of this generalized algorithm are applied to the Mehrotra’s heuristic, which determines the starting point for the interior point method in the PCx software. Computational experiments in a set of linear programming problems have shown that this approach reduces the total number of iterations and the running time for many of them, including large-scale ones.展开更多

To avoid the situation that the algorithm we use may converge to a saddle point or a local maximum, we utilize a merit function to guide the iterates toward a local minimum. Especially, we add the parameter ε to the Newton system when calculating the decrease directions. The global convergence is achieved by the decrease of a merit function. Furthermore, the numerical results confirm that the algorithm can solve this kind of problems in an efficient way.展开更多
