This paper describes secant method with particle swarm optimization (PSO) for solving the economic dispatch (ED) problem with valve point loading. The ED problem is solved in two stages. The range of output powers near the global optimal solution is determined by the secant method and then the final optimal solution is obtained by PSO. The proposed algorithm has been tested on 3-, 13- and 40-units...
This paper presents a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based algorithm for optimal flow with generating units having non-smooth fuel costs curves while satisfying the constraints such as generator capacity limits, power balance, line flow limits, bus voltages and transformer tap setting, The conventional loed flow and incorporation of the proposed method using PSO has been examined and tested for...
A novel scheme for boiler combustion control system is proposed, where the firing rate demand is represented by furnace temperature distribution (FTD). In this scheme, the firing rate is defined to be FTD which characterizes the status of combustion directly. A real-time FTD shape control system is formulated and applied to boiler combustion control. FTD is fed back to combustion controller and adjusted...
