Optimum selection of Hydraulic Turbine Manufacturer for SHP:MCDA or MCDM Tools

چکیده
The choice of hydraulic turbine manufacturer and their performance assessment are becoming major challenges. Evaluating product criterion and selecting optimum manufacturer are complicated tasks due to the fact that various criteria or objectives must be considered in the decision making process having various importance. In this study, we proposed a hydro turbine manufacturer selection analysis model. The aim of this paper is to determine the appropriate manufacturer providing the optimum solutions and best customer satisfaction for the criteria identified. In this paper, approximate data are taken from five well known hydro turbine manufacturer catalogues to illustrate the selection procedure. To the best of the authors knowledge this novel multi criteria decision analysis or making (MCDA or MCDM) approach of optimized selection of hydro turbine manufacturer for small hydro power generation is absent in renewable energy or fluid mechanics literatures due to its assessment complexity.

Inverse Artificial neural network (iANN) is applied to optimize the parameters for hydraulic turbine runner blades. This proposed method (iANN) inverts the artificial neural network (ANN) and uses an optimization method to find the optimum parameter value (or unknown parameter) for given required conditions. In order to do so, first an ANN, which consists of a feedforward network with one hidde...
