Congestion management is one of the important functions performed by system operator in deregulated electricity market to ensure secure operation of transmission system. This paper proposes two effective methods for transmission congestion alleviation in deregulated power system. Congestion or overload in transmission networks is alleviated by rescheduling of generators and/or load shedding. The two objectives conflicting in nature (1) transmission line over load and (2) congestion cost are optimized in this paper. The multiobjective fuzzy evolutionary programming (FEP) and nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II methods are used to solve this problem. FEP uses the combined advantages of fuzzy and evolutionary programming (EP) techniques and gives better unique solution satisfying both objectives, whereas nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) II gives a set of Pareto-optimal solutions. The methods propose an efficient and reliable algorithm for line overload alleviation due to critical line outages in a deregulated power markets. The quality and usefulness of the algorithm is tested on IEEE 30 bus system.

Abstract This paper presents an effective method of network overload management in power systems. The three competing objectives 1) generation cost 2) transmission line overload and 3) real power loss are optimized to provide pareto-optimal solutions. A fuzzy ranking based non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) is used to solve this complex nonlinear optimization problem. The minimization of competing objectives is done by generation rescheduling. Fuzzy ranking method is employed to extract the best compromise solution out of the available non-dominated solutions depending upon its highest rank. N-1 contingency analysis is carried out to identify the most severe lines and those lines are selected for outage. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated for different contingency cases in IEEE 30 and IEEE 118 bus systems with smooth cost functions and their results are compared with other single objective evolutionary algorithms like Particle swarm optimization (PSO) and Differential evolution (DE). Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach to generate well distributed pareto-optimal non-dominated solutions of multi-objective problem

Abstract Transmission congestion issues became more severe and difficult to control as the power sector became more deregulated. The grey wolf optimization algorithm is proposed to relieve congestion by rescheduling generation effectively, resulting in the least congestion cost. The selection of participating generators is based on sensitivity, and the proposed technique is used to determine the best-rescheduled output active power generation to minimize line overload. The IEEE-30 bus system is used to test the proposed optimization technique. It has been demonstrated that when compared to other algorithms like the real coded genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, and differential evolution algorithm, the proposed approach produces excellent results in terms of congestion cost.

Nondominated Sorting

Fast nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) is a classical method for multiobjective optimization problems and has exhibited outstanding performance in many practical engineering problems. However, the tournament selection strategy used for the reproduction in NSGA-II may generate a large amount of repetitive individuals, resulting in the decrease of population diversity. To alleviate this issue, Lévy distribution, which is famous for excellent search ability in the cuckoo search algorithm, is incorporated into NSGA-II. To verify the proposed algorithm, this paper employs three different test sets, including ZDT, DTLZ, and MaF test suits. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is more promising compared with the state-of-the-art algorithms. Parameter sensitivity analysis further confirms the robustness of the proposed algorithm. In addition, a two-objective network topology optimization model is then used to further verify the proposed algorithm. The practical comparison results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is more effective in dealing with practical engineering optimization problems.

A precise determination of the mass diffusion coefficient and the mass Biot number is indispensable for deeper mass transfer analysis that can enable finding optimum conditions for conducting a considered process. The aim of the article is to estimate the mass diffusion coefficient and the mass Biot number by applying nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) II genetic algorithms. The method is used in drying. The maximization of coefficient of correlation (R) and simultaneous minimization of mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE) between the model and experimental data were taken into account. The Biot number and moisture diffusion coefficient can be determined using the following equations: Bi = 0.7647141 + 10.1689977s − 0.003400086T + 948.715758s2 + 0.000024316T2 − 0.12478256sT, D = 1.27547936∙10−7 − 2.3808∙10−5s − 5.08365633∙10−9T + 0.0030005179s2 + 4.266495∙10−11T2 + 8.33633∙10−7sT or Bi = 0.764714 + 10.1689091s − 0.003400089T + 948.715738s2 + 0.000024316T2 − 0.12478252sT, D = 1.27547948∙10−7 − 2.3806∙10−5s − 5.08365753∙10−9T + 0.0030005175s2 + 4.266493∙10−11T2 + 8.336334∙10−7sT. The results of statistical analysis for the Biot number and moisture diffusion coefficient equations were as follows: R = 0.9905672, MAE = 0.0406375, RMSE = 0.050252 and R = 0.9905611, MAE = 0.0406403 and RMSE = 0.050273, respectively.

Abstract. Forecast uncertainties are unfortunately inevitable when conducting the deterministic analysis of a dynamical system. The cascade of uncertainty originates from different components of the forecasting chain, such as the chaotic nature of the atmosphere, various initial conditions and boundaries, inappropriate conceptual hydrologic modeling, and the inconsistent stationarity assumption in a changing environment. Ensemble forecasting proves to be a powerful tool to represent error growth in the dynamical 5 system and to capture the uncertainties associated with different sources. However, space still exists for improving their predictive skill and credibility through proper hydrologic post-processing. We tested the post-processing skills of Affine kernel dressing (AKD) and Non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II). Those two methods are theoretically/technically distinct, yet however, share the same feature that both of them relax the parametric assumption of the underlying distribution of the data (i.e., streamflow ensemble forecast). AKD transformed ensemble and the Pareto fronts 10 generated with NSGA-II demonstrated the superiority of post-processed ensemble in efficiently eliminating forecast biases and maintaining a proper dispersion with the increasing forecasting horizon.
