In addition, there are many other organisms and species present in river waters that also require water for their survival. Due to the lack of awareness many times the minimum required quantity and quality of water for river ecosystem is not made available at downstream of storage reservoirs. So, a sustainable approach is required in reservoir operations to maintain the river ecosystem with environmental flow while meeting the other demands. Multi-objective, multi-reservoir operation model developed with Python programming using Fuzzy Linear Programing method incorporating environmental flow requirement of river is presented in this paper. Objective of maximization of irrigation release is considered for first run. In second run maximization of releases for hydropower generation is considered as objective. Further both objectives are fuzzified by incorporating linear membership function and solved to maximize fuzzified objective function simultaneously by maximizing satisfaction level indicator (λ). The optimal reservoir operation policy is presented considering constraints including Irrigation release, Turbine release, Reservoir storage, Environmental flow release and hydrologic continuity. Model applied for multi-reservoir system consists of four reservoirs, i.e., Jayakwadi Stage-I Reservoir (R1), Jayakwadi Stage-II Reservoir (R2), Yeldari Reservoir (R3), Siddheshwar Reservoir (R4) in Godavari River sub-basin from Marathwada region of Maharashtra State, India.展开更多

A dynamic topology optimization method of bi-material plate structures is presented based on power flow analysis. Topology optimization problems formulated directly with the design objective of minimizing the power flow response are dealt with. In comparison to the displacement or velocity response, the power flow response takes not only the amplitude of force and velocity into account, but also the phase relationship of the two vector quantities. The complex expression of power flow response is derived based on time-harmonic external mechanical loading and Rayleigh damping. The mathematical formulation of topology optimization is established based on power flow response and bi-material solid isotropic material with penalization(SIMP) model. Computational optimization procedure is developed by using adjoint design sensitivity analysis and the method of moving asymptotes(MMA). Several numerical examples are presented for bi-material plate structures with different loading frequencies, which verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this method. Additionally, optimum results between topological design of minimum power flow response and minimum dynamic compliance are compared, showing that the present method has strong adaptability for structural dynamic topology optimization problems. The proposed research provides a more accurate and effective approach for dynamic topology optimization of vibrating structures.展开更多

The objective of the proposed method is to find the steady state operation point in a power system which minimizes the fuel cost, while maintaining an acceptable system performance in terms of limits on generator power, line flow limits and voltage limits. In order to improvise the performance of the conventional PSO （cPSO）, the fine tuning parameters- the inertia weight and acceleration coefficients are formulated in terms of global-local best values of the objective function. These global-local best inertia weight （GLBestlW） and global-local best acceleration coefficient （GLBestAC） are incorporated into PSO in order to compute the optimal power flow solution. The proposed method has been tested on the standard IEEE 30 bus test system to prove its efficacy. The results are compared with those obtained through cPSO. It is observed that the proposed algorithm is computationally faster, in terms of the number of load flows executed and provides better results than the conventional heuristic techniques.展开更多

Firstly, ...In this paper, a new optimization system based genetic algorithm is presented. 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

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.展开更多

文摘Ensuring the reliability of power systems in microgrids is critical,particularly under contingency conditions that can disrupt power flow and system stability.This study investigates the application of Security-Constrained Optimal Power Flow(SCOPF)using the Line Outage Distribution Factor(LODF)to enhance resilience in a renewable energy-integrated microgrid.The research examines a 30-bus system with 14 generators and an 8669 MW load demand,optimizing both single-objective and multi-objective scenarios.The single-objective opti-mization achieves a total generation cost of$47,738,while the multi-objective approach reduces costs to$47,614 and minimizes battery power output to 165.02 kW.Under contingency conditions,failures in transmission lines 1,22,and 35 lead to complete power loss in those lines,requiring a redistribution strategy.Implementing SCOPF mitigates these disruptions by adjusting power flows,ensuring no line exceeds its capacity.Specifically,in contingency 1,power in channel 4 is reduced from 59 to 32 kW,while overall load shedding is minimized to 0.278 MW.These results demonstrate the effectiveness of SCOPF in maintaining stability and reducing economic losses.Unlike prior studies,this work integrates LODF into SCOPF for large-scale microgrid applications,offering a computationally efficient contingency management framework that enhances grid resilience and supports renewable energy adoption.
文摘The Sine and Wormhole Energy Whale Optimization Algorithm(SWEWOA)represents an advanced solution method for resolving Optimal Power Flow(OPF)problems in power systems equipped with Flexible AC Transmission System(FACTS)devices which include Thyristor-Controlled Series Compensator(TCSC),Thyristor-Controlled Phase Shifter(TCPS),and Static Var Compensator(SVC).SWEWOA expands Whale Optimization Algorithm(WOA)through the integration of sine and wormhole energy features thus improving exploration and exploitation capabilities for efficient convergence in complex non-linear OPF problems.A performance evaluation of SWEWOA takes place on the IEEE-30 bus test system through static and dynamic loading scenarios where it demonstrates better results than five contemporary algorithms:Adaptive Chaotic WOA(ACWOA),WOA,Chaotic WOA(CWOA),Sine Cosine Algorithm Differential Evolution(SCADE),and Hybrid Grey Wolf Optimization(HGWO).The research shows that SWEWOA delivers superior generation cost reduction than other algorithms by reaching a minimum of 0.9%better performance.SWEWOA demonstrates superior power loss performance by achieving(P_(loss,min))at the lowest level compared to all other tested algorithms which leads to better system energy efficiency.The dynamic loading performance of SWEWOA leads to a 4.38%reduction in gross costs which proves its capability to handle different operating conditions.The algorithm achieves top performance in Friedman Rank Test(FRT)assessments through multiple performance metrics which verifies its consistent reliability and strong stability during changing power demands.The repeated simulations show that SWEWOA generates mean costs(C_(gen,min))and mean power loss values(P_(loss,min))with small deviations which indicate its capability to maintain cost-effective solutions in each simulation run.SWEWOA demonstrates great potential as an advanced optimization solution for power system operations through the results presented in this study.
文摘Due to the climate-dependent nature of renewable energy sources(RESs),solving the optimal power flow(OPF)problem in power systems that integrate RESs,such as photovoltaic(PV)units and wind turbines(WTs),remains a significant challenge.To address this problem,this study presents an effective framework that incorporates solar and wind power generation.To manage the nonconvex and nonlinear characteristics of the OPF problem,a modified physics-inspired algorithm termed the Enhanced Coulomb’s and Franklin’s laws Algorithm(ECFA),is deployed.In the proposed OPF model,the power generated from RESs is considered a dependent variable,while voltages at buses equipped with RESs serve as decision variables.Real-time data on solar irradiation and wind speed are used to model the power outputs of PV units and WTs,respectively.Although the Coulomb’s and Franklin’s law algorithm(CFA)offers some advantages,it underperforms on complex optimization tasks compared to SSA,BA,SCA,ABC,and CFA.The enhanced version of the CFA improves the search process across the feasible space by incorporating diverse interaction methods and enhancing exploitation capabilities.The performance of the proposed ECFA is assessed through comprehensive comparisons with state-of-the-art methods for solving the OPF problem.

文摘Work on dynamic topology optimization of engineering structures for vibration suppression has mainly addressed the maximization of eigenfrequencies and gaps between consecutive eigenfrequencies of free vibration, minimization of the dynamic compliance subject to forced vibration, and minimization of the structural frequency response. A dynamic topology optimization method of bi-material plate structures is presented based on power flow analysis. Topology optimization problems formulated directly with the design objective of minimizing the power flow response are dealt with. In comparison to the displacement or velocity response, the power flow response takes not only the amplitude of force and velocity into account, but also the phase relationship of the two vector quantities. The complex expression of power flow response is derived based on time-harmonic external mechanical loading and Rayleigh damping. The mathematical formulation of topology optimization is established based on power flow response and bi-material solid isotropic material with penalization(SIMP) model. Computational optimization procedure is developed by using adjoint design sensitivity analysis and the method of moving asymptotes(MMA). Several numerical examples are presented for bi-material plate structures with different loading frequencies, which verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this method. Additionally, optimum results between topological design of minimum power flow response and minimum dynamic compliance are compared, showing that the present method has strong adaptability for structural dynamic topology optimization problems. The proposed research provides a more accurate and effective approach for dynamic topology optimization of vibrating structures.

文摘Due to the intermittency and instability of Wind-Solar energy and easy compensation of hydropower, this study proposes a Wind-Solar-Hydro power optimal scheduling model. This model is aimed at maximizing the total system power generation and the minimum ten-day joint output. To effectively optimize the multi-objective model, a new algorithm named non-dominated sorting culture differential evolution algorithm(NSCDE) is proposed. The feasibility of NSCDE was verified through several well-known benchmark problems. It was then applied to the Jinping Wind-Solar-Hydro complementary power generation system. The results demonstrate that NSCDE can provide decision makers a series of optimized scheduling schemes.

文摘The output uncertainty of high-proportion distributed power generation severely affects the system voltage and frequency.Simultaneously,controllable loads have also annually increased,which markedly improve the capability for nodal-power control.To maintain the system frequency and voltage magnitude around rated values,a new multi-objective optimization model for both voltage and frequency control is proposed.Moreover,a great similarity between the multiobjective optimization and game problems appears.To reduce the strong subjectivity of the traditional methods,the idea and method of the game theory are introduced into the solution.According to the present situational data and analysis of the voltage and frequency sensitivities to nodal-power variations,the design variables involved in the voltage and frequency control are classified into two strategy spaces for players using hierarchical clustering.Finally,the effectiveness and rationality of the proposed control are verified in MATLAB.
文摘This paper proposes an efficient method for optimal power flow solution （OPF） using particle swarm optimization （PSO） technique. The objective of the proposed method is to find the steady state operation point in a power system which minimizes the fuel cost, while maintaining an acceptable system performance in terms of limits on generator power, line flow limits and voltage limits. In order to improvise the performance of the conventional PSO （cPSO）, the fine tuning parameters- the inertia weight and acceleration coefficients are formulated in terms of global-local best values of the objective function. These global-local best inertia weight （GLBestlW） and global-local best acceleration coefficient （GLBestAC） are incorporated into PSO in order to compute the optimal power flow solution. The proposed method has been tested on the standard IEEE 30 bus test system to prove its efficacy. The results are compared with those obtained through cPSO. It is observed that the proposed algorithm is computationally faster, in terms of the number of load flows executed and provides better results than the conventional heuristic techniques.
文摘In this paper, a new optimization system based genetic algorithm is presented. 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.

文摘In the contemporary era,the global expansion of electrical grids is propelled by various renewable energy sources(RESs).Efficient integration of stochastic RESs and optimal power flow(OPF)management are critical for network optimization.This study introduces an innovative solution,the Gaussian Bare-Bones Levy Cheetah Optimizer(GBBLCO),addressing OPF challenges in power generation systems with stochastic RESs.The primary objective is to minimize the total operating costs of RESs,considering four functions:overall operating costs,voltage deviation management,emissions reduction,voltage stability index(VSI)and power loss mitigation.Additionally,a carbon tax is included in the objective function to reduce carbon emissions.Thorough scrutiny,using modified IEEE 30-bus and IEEE 118-bus systems,validates GBBLCO’s superior performance in achieving optimal solutions.Simulation results demonstrate GBBLCO’s efficacy in six optimization scenarios:total cost with valve point effects,total cost with emission and carbon tax,total cost with prohibited operating zones,active power loss optimization,voltage deviation optimization and enhancing voltage stability index(VSI).GBBLCO outperforms conventional techniques in each scenario,showcasing rapid convergence and superior solution quality.Notably,GBBLCO navigates complexities introduced by valve point effects,adapts to environmental constraints,optimizes costs while considering prohibited operating zones,minimizes active power losses,and optimizes voltage deviation by enhancing the voltage stability index(VSI)effectively.This research significantly contributes to advancing OPF,emphasizing GBBLCO’s improved global search capabilities and ability to address challenges related to local minima.GBBLCO emerges as a versatile and robust optimization tool for diverse challenges in power systems,offering a promising solution for the evolving needs of renewable energy-integrated power grids.
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Natural Laminar Flow(NLF)technology is very effective for reducing the skin friction drag of aircraft engine nacelle,but the aerodynamic performance of NLF nacelle is highly sensitive to uncertain working conditions.Therefore,it’s imperative to incorporate uncertainties into the design of NLF nacelle.In this study,for a robust optimization of NLF nacelle and for improving its efficiency,an adaptive-surrogate-based robust optimization strategy is established,which is an iterative optimization process where the surrogate model is updated to obtain the real Pareto front of multi-objective optimization problem.A case study is carried out to validate its feasibility and effectiveness.The results show that the optimization increases the favorable pressure gradient region and the volume ratio of the nacelle by increasing its lip radius and reducing its maximum diameter.And the aerodynamic robustness of the NLF nacelle is mainly determined by the lip radius,maximum diameter of nacelle and location of the maximum diameter.Compared to the initial nacelle,the optimized nacelle maintains a wide range of low drag and high laminar flow ratio in the disturbance space,which extends the average laminar flow region to 21.6%and facilitates a decrease of 1.98 counts in the average drag coefficient.
