Unit Commitment by an Enhanced Simulated Annealing Algorithm
Abstract
A new simulated annealing (SA) algorithm combined with a dynamic economic dispatch method has been developed for solving the short-term unit commitment (UC) problem. SA is used for the scheduling of the generating units, while a dynamic economic dispatch method is applied incorporating the ramp rate constraints in the solution of the UC problem. New rules concerning the tuning of the control parameters of the SA algorithm are proposed. Three alternative mechanisms for generating feasible trial solutions in the neighborhood of the current one, contributing to the reduction of the required CPU time, are also presented. The ramp rates are taken into account by performing either a backward or a forward sequence of conventional economic dispatches with modified limits on the generating units. The proposed algorithm is considerably fast and provides feasible near-optimal solutions. Numerical simulations have proved the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in solving large UC problems within a reasonable execution time.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
