Particle swarm approach based on quantum mechanics and harmonic oscillator potential well for economic load dispatch with valve-point effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is population-based heuristic global search algorithm inspired by social behavior patterns of organisms that live and interact within large groups. The PSO is based on researches on swarms such as fish schooling and bird flocking. Inspired by the classical PSO method and quantum mechanics theories, this work presents a quantum-inspired version of the PSO (QPSO) using the harmonic oscillator potential well (HQPSO) to solve economic dispatch problems. A 13-units test system with incremental fuel cost function that takes into account the valve-point loading effects is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed HQPSO method compared with the simulation results based on the classical PSO, the QPSO, and other optimization algorithms reported in the literature. 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

This paper presents a new efficient approach to Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) problems with non-convex cost functions using PSO-ANN. The practical ELD problems have non-smooth cost functions considering valve point loading effects with equality and inequality constraints that make the problem of finding the global optimum difficult using any traditional mathematical approach.
