Optimal Solution of Combined Heat and Power Dispatch Problem Using Whale Optimization Algorithm

In this article whale optimization algorithm (WOA) has been applied to solve the combined heat and power economic dispatch (CHPED) problem. The CHPED is energy system which provides both power. Due presence of valve point loading prohibited working region, problems become more complex one. main objective problem minimize total cost fuel as well with fulfill load demand. This technique shows several advantages like having few input variables, best quality solution rapid computational time. recommended approach carried out on three test systems. simulation results present work certify activeness proposed technique.
