Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of economic dispatching of hydropower stations, and relates to a successive dimensionality reduction method for economic dispatching of cascade hydropower stations adapting to complex constraints. Background Art

[0002] The economic dispatch problem of cascade hydropower stations has a large and complex set of constraints. The complex constraints make the feasible solution space discontinuous, which greatly increases the difficulty of searching for the optimal solution. In order to solve this type of cascade hydropower station economic dispatch problem, domestic and foreign scholars have conducted a lot of research and proposed a variety of linear programming, dynamic programming and intelligent evolution algorithms. However, when faced with the complex hydraulic connections of cascade hydropower stations, a large number of decision variables, and complex constraints, the stability and effectiveness of the calculation results of intelligent evolution algorithms such as genetic algorithms and particle swarm algorithms are difficult to guarantee; dynamic programming algorithms increase the calculation time and storage space on a large scale with the increase of discrete precision of decision variables, the number of power stations, the number of time periods, and other factors, resulting in the problem of "dimensionality curse".

[0003] In this context, "dimensionality reduction" has become one of the hot topics in hydropower system research at home and abroad. In general, the dimensionality reduction strategy can be divided into spatial dimensionality reduction to reduce the number of cascade hydropower stations to be optimized. The dimensionality reduction strategy greatly reduces the computational complexity of the cascade hydropower station optimization scheduling problem, ensuring the stability and effectiveness of the calculation results; at the same time, it improves the computational efficiency and avoids the problem of "dimensionality curse".

[0113] Water level coordination constraint: The power station is set with an upper limit water level (not greater than the normal water storage level) and a lower limit water level. In order to reserve sufficient time for emergency operations such as "black start" (meaning that after the entire system stops operating due to a fault, the system can recover on its own without relying on other network help) and sudden floods, the power station will set an upper limit water level during operation. In order to prevent the reservoir water level from being too low and affecting the power generation of the power station in the subsequent period, or the water level in front of the dam is too low at the current moment and affecting the water diversion flow of the turbine unit, the power station will also set a lower limit water level. During the operation of the power station, it should avoid operating for a long time above the upper limit water level and below the lower limit water level. When the cascade hydropower station is operated jointly, the power station should be in the economic operation area (lower limit water level < economic operation area < upper limit water level) or in the high limit water level area or the low limit water level area at the same time. The power station output mode under different combinations of reservoir water levels of the cascade hydropower station is shown in the following table:

[0119] Follow the steps below to implement it:

[0120] Step 3.1, initial value determination

[0121] Assume the total output P of n power stations 总 And the output ratio of each power station in several groups, and get the output P of each power station in each group n, the water consumption Q of the power station is obtained by formula (4) and formula (3), and then the total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period is obtained by formula (6), formula (2), and formula (1) in turn; the total energy storage F of several cascade power stations at the end of the period is compared, and the largest total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period is selected as the initial total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period; the output P of each power station corresponding to the total energy storage F of the initial cascade power station at the end of the period is calculated. n Provides initial output for each power station;

[0122] Step 3.2: Dimensionality reduction optimization

[0123] The total number of time periods T is divided into several stages, each stage contains several time periods, the number of time periods in each stage is equal and the number of stages can be divided by the total number of time periods T, and in each time period, the same increase and decrease operation is performed on the initial output of each power station in step 3.1 by the Box-Behnken Design method, and then according to the calculation process in step 3.1, the total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period under the increase and decrease operation is obtained, and the total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period under the increase and decrease operation is compared, and the largest total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period is selected as the optimized total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period; the output of each power station after the increase and decrease operation corresponding to the optimized total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period is the optimized output of each power station;

[0124] Taking the power plant executing the day-ahead plan every 15 minutes as an example, the total time periods of 24 hours a day can be divided into 96 time periods. If the day-ahead plan is executed every 60 minutes, the corresponding total calculation time periods are 24 time periods. Taking the 96 time periods divided into 3 stages as an example, three stages are formed, namely, time periods 1-32, 33-64, and 65-96, and each stage contains 32 time periods.

[0125] Step 3.3, step-by-step optimization

[0126] Increase or decrease the optimized output of each power station in step 3.2, with a step size of 5MW to 10MW. Then, according to the calculation process in step 3.1, the optimal total energy storage F of the cascade power stations at the end of the period is obtained. The optimal total energy storage F of the cascade power stations at the end of the period is compared, and the largest total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period is selected as the optimal total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period; the output of each power station corresponding to the optimal total energy storage F of the cascade power station at the end of the period is taken as the optimal output of each power station.

[0128] The installed capacities of the Zangmu-Jiacha cascade power stations in the middle reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River are 510MW and 360MW respectively, and the number of units are 6 and 3 respectively. A two-day plan for the Zangmu-Jiacha cascade power stations is made, in which: the flow propagation time between the two stations is calculated as 15 minutes; in addition to the traditional single period constraints, the period coupling constraints mainly consider that the output difference between the two power stations is less than 60MW between the time periods; the water level coordination constraints mainly consider the coordinated control of the water level zones of the two stations. The upper and lower limit water levels of the Zangmu Reservoir are 3309m and 3306m respectively, and [3306m, 3309m] is the economic operation zone of the reservoir. The upper and lower limit water levels of the Jiacha Reservoir are 3245m and 3243m respectively, and [3243m, 3245m] is the economic operation zone of the reservoir.

[0129] By analyzing the results obtained using the DRS-DSA and DSA algorithms, it can be concluded that:

[0130] (1) On typical day 1, the end-of-period energy storage values ​​of the cascade power stations obtained by using the DRS-DSA algorithm and the DSA algorithm differ by 65,400 kW·h; on typical day 2, the DRS-DSA algorithm can achieve an additional benefit of 83,700 kW·h compared with the DSA algorithm. Therefore, the DRS-DSA algorithm can achieve the above additional benefit compared with the DSA algorithm.

[0131] (2) Figure 1 As shown in the figure, if the DRS-DSA algorithm stays in the secondary dimensionality reduction stage (dimensionality reduction optimization), the time it consumes will be greatly reduced and is less than that of the DSA algorithm, and a better scheduling result can be achieved.
