Aiming to the severe wind power curtailment issue, the characteristics of interactive load are studied upon the traditional day-ahead dispatch model to mitigate the influence of wind power fluctuation. A multi-objective optimal dispatch model with the minimum operating cost and power losses is built.

The quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is applied to convert multi-objective optimization problem into single objective optimization problem. The simulation results of IEEE 30-bus system verify that the proposed method can effectively reduce the operating cost and grid loss simultaneously enhancing the consumption of wind power.展开更多

文摘Due to development of distribution systems and increase in electricity demand,the use of capacitor banks increases.From the other point of view,nonlinear loads generate and inject considerable harmonic currents into power system.Under this condition if capacitor banks are not properly selected and placed in the power system,they could amplify and propagate these harmonics and deteriorate power quality to unacceptable levels.With attention of disadvantages of passive filters,such as occurring resonance,nowadays the usage of this type of harmonic compensator is restricted.On the other side,one of parallel multi-function compensating devices which are recently used in distribution system to mitigate voltage sag and harmonic distortion,performs power factor correction,and improves the overall power quality as active power conditioner(APC).Therefore,the utilization of APC in harmonic distorted system can affect and change the optimal location and size of shunt capacitor bank under harmonic distortion condition.This paper presents an optimization algorithm for improvement of power quality using simultaneous optimal placement and sizing of APC and shunt capacitor banks in radial distribution networks in the presence of voltage and current harmonics.The algorithm is based on particle swarm optimization(PSO).The objective function includes the cost of power losses,energy losses and those of the capacitor banks and APCs.
文摘With the rapid and large-scale development of renewable energy, the lack of new energy power transportation or consumption, and the shortage of grid peak-shifting ability have become increasingly serious. Aiming to the severe wind power curtailment issue, the characteristics of interactive load are studied upon the traditional day-ahead dispatch model to mitigate the influence of wind power fluctuation. A multi-objective optimal dispatch model with the minimum operating cost and power losses is built. Optimal power flow distribution is available when both generation and demand side participate in the resource allocation. The quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is applied to convert multi-objective optimization problem into single objective optimization problem. The simulation results of IEEE 30-bus system verify that the proposed method can effectively reduce the operating cost and grid loss simultaneously enhancing the consumption of wind power.

文摘The optimal allocation of integrated energy systemcapacity based on the heuristic algorithms can reduce economic costs and achieve maximum consumption of renewable energy,which has attracted many attentions.However,the optimization results of heuristic algorithms are usually influenced by the choice of hyperparameters.To solve the above problem,the particle swarm algorithm is introduced to find the optimal hyperparameters of the heuristic algorithms.Firstly,an integrated energy system consisting of the photovoltaic,wind turbine,electrolysis cell,hydrogen storage tank,and energy storage is established.Meanwhile,the minimum economic cost,the maximum wind and PV power consumption rate,and the minimum load shortage rate are considered to be the objective functions.Then,a hybrid method combined the particle swarm combined with non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms-II is proposed to solve the optimal allocation problem.According to the optimal result,the economic cost is 6.3 million RMB,and the load shortage rate is 9.83%.Finally,four comparative experiments are conducted to verify the superiority-seeking ability of the proposed method.The comparative results indicate that the proposed method possesses a strongermerit-seeking ability,resulting in a solution satisfaction rate of 87.37%,which is higher than that of the unimproved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms-II.

文摘Airborne pulse radar and communication systems are essential for precise detection and collision avoidance,ensuring that aircraft operate safely and efficiently.A major challenge in spectrum sharing is the allocation of resources in both the time and frequency domains,aiming to minimize inter-system interference as the available spectrum fluctuates over time.In this paper,regarding maximization of detection probability and spectrum utilization efficiency as two fundamental objectives,a novel Dynamic Spectrum and Power Allocation based on Genetic Algorithm(GA-DSPA)model is proposed,which dynamically allocates communication channel frequency and power under the constraints of pulse radar detection probability and signal-to-interferenceplus-noise ratio of communication.To solve this bi-objective model,a non-dominated sortingbased multi-objective genetic algorithm is developed.A novel environment perception strategy and offspring sorting technique based on radar echoes are integrated into the optimization framework.Simulation results indicate that by integrating environmental monitoring mechanisms and dynamic adaptation strategies,the proposed method effectively tracks the evolving Paretooptimal Fronts(Po Fs),thereby ensuring optimal performance for both co-located pulse radar and communication systems.Hardware test results confirm that within the GA-DSPA framework,the pulse radar achieves higher detection probabilities under identical conditions,while the communication system realizes increased average throughput.

文摘In order to increase the performance of horizontal tidal turbines, a multi-objective optimization model was proposed in this study. Firstly, the prediction model for horizontal tidal turbines was built, which coupled the blade element momentum (BEM) theory and the CFD calculation. Secondly, a multi-objective optimization method coupled the response surface method (RSM) with the multi-objective genetic algorithm NSGA-II was applied to obtain the optimal blade profiles. The pitch angle and the chord length distribution were chosen as the design variables, while the mean power coefficient and the variance of power coefficient were chosen as the objective functions. With the mean power coefficient improved by 4.1% and the variance of power coefficient decreased by 46.7%, results showed that both objective functions could be improved.

文摘With the load growth and the power grid expansion,the problem of short-circuit current(SCC)exceeding the secure limit in large-scale power grids has become more serious,which poses great challenge to the optimal secure operation.Aiming at the SCC limitations,we use multiple back-toback voltage source converter based(B2B VSC)systems to separate a large-scale AC power grid into two asynchronous power grids.A multi-objective robust optimal secure operation model of large-scale power grid with multiple B2B VSC systems considering the SCC limitation is established based on the AC power flow equations.The decision variables include the on/off states of synchronous generators,power output,terminal voltage,transmission switching,bus sectionalization,and modulation ratios of B2B VSC systems.The influence of inner current sources of renewable energy generators on the system SCC is also considered.To improve the computational efficiency,a mixedinteger convex programming(MICP)framework based on convex relaxation methods including the inscribed N-sided approximation for the nonlinear SCC limitation constraints is proposed.Moreover,combined with the column-and-constraint generation(C&CG)algorithm,a method to directly solve the compromise optimal solution(COS)of the multi-objective robust optimal secure operation model is proposed.Finally,the effectiveness and computational efficiency of the proposed solution method is demonstrated by an actual 4407-bus provincial power grid and the modified IEEE 39-bus power grid,which can reduce the consumed CPU time of solving the COS by more than 90%and obtain a better COS.

文摘Because of the randomness of wind power and photovoltaic(PV)output of new energy bases,the problem of peak regulation capability and voltage stability of ultra-high voltage direct current(UHVDC)transmission lines,we proposed an optimum allocation method of installed capacity of the solar-thermal power station based on chance constrained programming in this work.Firstly,we established the uncertainty model of wind power and PV based on the chance constrained planning theory.Then we used the K-medoids clusteringmethod to cluster the scenarios considering the actual operation scenarios throughout the year.Secondly,we established the optimal configuration model based on the objective function of the strongest transient voltage stability and the lowest overall cost of operation.Finally,by quantitative analysis of actual wind power and photovoltaic new energy base,this work verified the feasibility of the proposed method.As a result of the simulations,we found that using the optimal configuration method of solar-thermal power stations could ensure an accurate allocation of installed capacity.When the installed capacity of the solar-thermal power station is 1×106 kW,the transient voltage recovery index(TVRI)is 0.359,which has a strong voltage support capacity for the system.Based on the results of this work,the optimal configuration of the installed capacity of the solar-thermal power plant can improve peak shaving performance,transient voltage support capability,and new energy consumption while satisfying the Direct Current(DC)outgoing transmission premise.

文摘The complementary of biomass and solar energy in combined cooling,heating and power(CCHP)system provides an efficient solution to address the energy crisis and environmental pollutants.This work aims to propose a multi-objective optimization model based on the life cycle assessment(LCA)method for the optimal design of hybrid solar and biomass system.The life-cycle process of the poly-generation system is divided into six phases to analyze energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.The comprehensive performances of the hybrid system are optimized by incorporating the evaluation criteria,including environmental impact in the whole life cycle,renewable energy contribution and economic benefit.The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithmⅡ(NSGA-Ⅱ)with the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution(TOPSIS)method is employed to search the Pareto frontier result and thereby achieve optimal performance.The developed optimization methodology is used for a case study in an industrial park.The results indicate that the best performance from the optimized hybrid system is reached with the environmental impact load reduction rate(EILRR)of 46.03%,renewable energy contribution proportion(RECP)of 92.73%and annual total cost saving rate(ATCSR)of35.75%,respectively.By comparing pollutant-eq emissions of different stages,the operation phase emits the largest pollutant followed by the phase of raw material acquisition.Overall,this study reveals that the proposed multi-objective optimization model integrated with LCA method delivers an alternative path for the design and optimization of more sustainable CCHP system.

文摘Considering comprehensive benefit of micro-grid system and consumers,we establish a mathematical model with the goal of the maximum consumer satisfaction and the maximum benefit of power generation side in the view of energy management.An improved multi-objective local mutation adaptive quantum particle swarm optimization(MO-LM-AQPSO)algorithm is adopted to obtain the Pareto frontier of consumer satisfaction and the benefit of power generation side.The optimal solution of the non-dominant solution is selected with introducing the power shortage and power loss to maximize the benefit of power generation side,and its reasonableness is verified by numerical simulation.Then,translational load and time-of-use electricity price incentive mechanism are considered and reasonable peak-valley price ratio is adopted to guide users to actively participate in demand response.The simulation results show that the reasonable incentive mechanism increases the benefit of power generation side and improves the consumer satisfaction.Also the mechanism maximizes the utilization of renewable energy and effectively reduces the operation cost of the battery.
文摘Cooperative communication through energy harvested relays in Cognitive Internet of Things(CIoT)has been envisioned as a promising solution to support massive connectivity of Cognitive Radio(CR)based IoT devices and to achieve maximal energy and spectral efficiency in upcoming wireless systems.In this work,a cooperative CIoT system is contemplated,in which a source acts as a satellite,communicating with multiple CIoT devices over numerous relays.Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs)are used as relays,which are equipped with onboard Energy Harvesting(EH)facility.We adopted a Power Splitting(PS)method for EH at relays,which are harvested from the Radio frequency(RF)signals.In conjunction with this,the Decode and Forward(DF)relaying strategy is used at UAV relays to transmit the messages from the satellite source to the CIoT devices.We developed a Multi-Objective Optimization(MOO)framework for joint optimization of source power allocation,CIoT device selection,UAV relay assignment,and PS ratio determination.We formulated three objectives:maximizing the sum rate and the number of admitted CIoT in the network and minimizing the carbon dioxide emission.The MOO formulation is a Mixed-Integer Non-Linear Programming(MINLP)problem,which is challenging to solve.To address the joint optimization problem for an epsilon optimal solution,an Outer Approximation Algorithm(OAA)is proposed with reduced complexity.The simulation results show that the proposed OAA is superior in terms of CIoT device selection and network utility maximization when compared to those obtained using the Nonlinear Optimization with Mesh Adaptive Direct-search(NOMAD)algorithm.
