The optimization of dispatching function based on ant colony optimization

Comparing to traditional operation chart, the accurate dispatching function, as a way of guiding hydropower reservoir operation, can develop much more benefit. In allusion to the characteristics of dispatching function compilation and its insufficiency, an optimization model for dispatching function based on ant colony optimization is established and specifically analyzed in this article. Through calculation and analysis within a case, it is showed that, with the optimized dispatching function, the operation efficiency has greatly improved, which fully manifests the effectiveness and feasibility of this model, providing a new thought of the optimal operation for hydropower reservoirs and also an effective guiding way for actual scheduling.
