dynamic economic load dispatch is one of the most important roles of power generation’s operation and control. it determines the optimal controls of production of generator units with predicted load demand over a certain period of time. economic dispatch at minimum production cost is one of the most important subjects in the power network’s operation, which is a complicated nonlinear constraine...

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...

this study based on investigation for integration wind power into conventional power system with its impact on fossil fuel generators and their generation management. wind power as environmental friendly energy source can reduce the operational cost of the system due to considering no cost for energizing the generator in comparing with fossil fuel generators. however due to unpredictable nature...

nowadays, economic load dispatch between generation units with least cost involved is one of the most important issues in utilizing power systems. in this paper, a new method i.e. water cycle algorithm (wca) which is similar to other intelligent algorithm and is based on swarm, is employed in order to solve the economic load dispatch problem between power plants. wca is used to solve complicate...

Unit commitment optimization for the scheduling of units and effective load sharing among thermal units is extensively used in electrical power system planning. The target of unit commitment optimization will be economical when the criteria is to test the best combination of thermal units to serve the load with the optimium load sharing among units satisfying various constraints like load deman...

Dynamic economic load dispatch is one of the most important roles of power generation’s operation and control. It determines the optimal controls of production of generator units with predicted load demand over a certain period of time. Economic dispatch a subjects in the power network’s operation, which is a complicated nonlinear constrained optimization problem. Since dynamic economic load di...

The main purpose of this research is to determine the generation quantity of each generator in a power system. In this way, not only will the electricity demanded by the system be supplied, but the cost of fuel along with the level of pollution can be minimized. Obviously, calculation of the optimal layout of power plants with the aim of minimizing fuel costs and pollutants level contributes to...

Economic load dispatch is one of the main functions of electrical power management systems. The main objective of economic load dispatch is to minimize the fuel cost while satisfying the required equality and inequality constraints. Economic Load Dispatch is a well known problem and has been a major concern for researchers and industrialists all around the world. The problem consists of divisio...

The main objective of this paper is to construct a distributed environment through which the economic load dispatch solutions of multi-area power systems can be monitored and controlled. A single-server/multi-client architecture which enables the neighboring power systems to access the remote economic load dispatch server (ELD) at any time with their respective data and to get the economic load...
