چکیده

In this paper we present a study of the application of Evolutionary Computation methods to the optimisation of the start-up of a combined cycle power plant. We propose a multiobjective approach considering different objectives for the optimisation in order to reduce the pollution emissions and to maximise the efficiency of the plant. We compare a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm (NSGA-II) with 2 and 5 objectives on a software simulator and then we use different metrics to measure the performances. We show that NSGA-II algorithm is able to provide a set of solutions, defined as Pareto Front, that represent the best trade-off on the different objectives among those the decision maker can choose.

Fuzzy Optimization of Start-Up Operations for Combined Cycle Power Plants

In this paper we present a study on the application of fuzzy sets for the start-up optimisation of a combined cycle power plant. We fuzzyfy the output process variables and then we properly combine the resulting fuzzy sets in order to get a single value in the lattice [0,1] providing the effectiveness (zero bad, one excellent) of the given start-up regulations. We tested the methodology on a la...

Use of surrogate modelling for multiobjective optimisation of urban wastewater systems.

Simulation models are now available to represent the sewer network, wastewater treatment plant and receiving water as an integrated system. These models can be combined with optimisation methods to improve overall system performance through optimal control. Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been proven to be a powerful method in developing optimal control strategies; however, the intensive com...
