Abstract

This paper presents a nature-inspired meta-heuristic, called a stochastic fractal search based method (SFS) for coping with complex economic load dispatch (ELD) problem. Two SFS methods are introduced in the paper by employing two different random walk generators for diffusion process in which SFS with Gaussian random walk is called SFS-Gauss and SFS with Levy Flight random walk is called SFS-Levy. The performance of the two applied methods is investigated comparing results obtained from three test system. These systems with 6, 10, and 20 units with different objective function forms and different constraints are inspected. Numerical result comparison can confirm that the applied approach has better solution quality and fast convergence time when compared with some recently published standard, modified, and hybrid methods. This elucidates that the two SFS methods are very favorable for solving the ELD problem.

Abstract

In this paper, a novel improved Stochastic Fractal Search optimization algorithm (ISFSOA) is proposed for finding effective solutions of a complex optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem with consideration of all constraints in transmission power network. Three different objectives consisting of total power loss (TPL), total voltage deviation (TVD) and voltage stabilization enhancement index are independently optimized by running the proposed ISFSOA and standard Stochastic Fractal Search optimization algorithm (SFSOA). The potential search of the proposed ISFSOA can be highly improved since diffusion process of SFSOA is modified. Compared to SFSOA, the proposed method can explore large search zones and exploit local search zones effectively based on the comparison of solution quality. One standard IEEE 30-bus system with three study cases is employed for testing the proposed method and compared to other so far applied methods. For each study case, the proposed method together with SFSOA are run fifty run and three main results consisting of the best, mean and standard deviation fitness function are compared. The indication is that the proposed method can find more promising solutions for the three cases and its search ability is always more stable than those of SFSOA. The comparison with other methods also give the same evaluation that the proposed method can be superior to almost all compared methods. As a result, it can conclude that the proposed modification is really appropriate for SFSOA in dealing with ORPD problem and the method can be used for other engineering optimization problems.

Abstract

In this paper, optimal load dispatch problem under competitive electric market (OLDCEM) is solved by the combination of cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) and a new constraint handling approach, called modified cuckoo search algorithm (MCSA). In addition, we also employ the constraint handling method for salp swarm algorithm (SSA) and particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) to form modified SSA (MSSA) and modified PSO (MPSO). The three methods have been tested on 3-unit system and 10-unit system under the consideration of payment model for power reserve allocated, and constraints of system and generators. Result comparisons among MCSA and CSA indicate that the proposed constraint handling method is very useful for metaheuristic algorithms when solving OLDCEM problem. As compared to MSSA, MPSO as well as other previous methods, MCSA is more effective by finding higher total benefit for the two systems with faster manner and lower oscillations. Consequently, MCSA method is a very effective technique for OLDCEM problem in power systems.

Abstract

In this paper, an economic load dispatch problem (ELD) is solved for reaching optimal power output of hybrid systems in addition to cost minimization. The systems consider the forbidden working zones (FWZs), dynamic load demand, wind farms, and solar photovoltaic fields (SPs). The cost minimization solutions for the ELD problem are found by applying the Dandelion optimizer (DO), the salp swarm algorithm (SSA), and the particle swarm optimization (PSO). In the study case, the power system consists of six thermal power plants (TPs), two wind farms, and two SPs. In addition, the variation of load demand over 24 hours of one day is applied. DO and SSA can achieve the best cost of $15443.0753 for the first system, but PSO cannot. However, DO is the most stable method reaching the standard deviation of 0.0184 for fifty runs but that of SSA and PSO is about 1.0439 and 8.9664. For the second system, DO can reach smaller cost than PSO by $11.17, $137.74 and $323.09 for the best, mean and worst solutions among fifty found solutions. As a result, DO is strongly recommended for solving the ELD problem.
