Abstract:<p>An optimal short-term hydro-thermal scheduling (ST-HTS) problem is solved in this paper using the multi-function global particle swarm optimization (MF-GPSO). A multi-reservoir cascaded hydro-electric system with a non-linear relationship between water discharge rate, power generation and net head is considered in this paper. The ST-HTS problem determines the optimal power generation of hydro and thermal generators which is aimed to minimize total fuel cost of thermal power plants during a determined … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
