An Intelligent Approach Based on Meta-Heuristic Algorithm for Non-Convex Economic Dispatch

an intelligent approach based on meta-heuristic algorithm for non-convex economic dispatch

one of the significant strategies of the power systems is economic dispatch (ed) problem, which is defined as the optimal generation of power units to produce energy at the lowest cost by fulfilling the demand within several limits. the undeniable impacts of ramp rate limits, valve loading, prohibited operating zone, spinning reserve and multi-fuel option on the economic dispatch of practical p...

An Efficient Meta Heuristic Algorithm to Solve Economic Load Dispatch Problems

The Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) problems in power generation systems are to reduce the fuel cost by reducing the total cost for the generation of electric power. This paper presents an efficient Modified Firefly Algorithm (MFA), for solving ELD Problem. The main objective of the problems is to minimize the total fuel cost of the generating units having quadratic cost functions subjected to lim...

Non-convex Economic Dispatch with Heuristic Load Patterns using Harmony Search Algorithm

Non-convex Economic Dispatch with Heuristic Load Patterns using Harmony Search Algorithm

This paper presents an attempt to explore the applicability of harmony search algorithm (HSA) to solve extremely challenging non-convex economic load dispatch (ELD) problem with transmission losses involving variations of consumer load patterns. The efficiency of the proposed approach HSA has been tested successfully on the standard 6-bus system, IEEE-14 bus system, and the IEEE-30 bus system w...

Non-convex Economic Load Dispatch using Cuckoo Search Algorithm

This paper presents cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) for solving non-convex economic load dispatch (ELD) problems of fossil fuel fired generators considering transmission losses and valve point loading effect. CSA is a new meta-heuristic optimisation technique inspired from the obligate brood parasitism of some cuckoo species by laying their eggs in the nests of other host birds of other species. ...

A Hybrid Meta-Heuristic Algorithm based on Imperialist Competition Algorithm

The human has always been to find the best in all things. This Perfectionism has led to the creation of optimization methods. The goal of optimization is to determine the variables and find the best acceptable answer Due to the limitations of the problem, So that the objective function is minimum or maximum. One of the ways inaccurate optimization is meta-heuristics so that Inspired by nature, ...
