The invention discloses an optimal dispatching method for a
power station containing a
coal-fired combined heat and power generation unit, and the method comprises the steps: taking the minimum
coal consumption of a
power station level as an optimization target, adjusting the
coal consumption of each unit through optimizing the
electric heating load of each unit, enabling the coal consumption of a
power station to be the minimum, and achieving the optimization target; the optimization method comprises the following optimization steps: reading scheduling related information, establishing an objective function by adopting a variable working condition theory, establishing an equality constraint condition according to an external load of the power
station, establishing an inequality constraint condition according to
safe operation domain data of each coal-fired combined heat and power generation unit in the power
station, and establishing an optimization scheduling model according to the objective function and the constraint condition; and solving the model by adopting a multi-starting-point local
search algorithm to obtain a scheduling scheme of each coal-fired combined heat and power generation unit in the power
station. The coal consumption of the power station containing the coal-fired combined heat and power generation unit can be remarkably reduced, the operation economy of the power station is improved, and
pollutant emission is reduced. The
optimal scheduling method is simple to execute and easy to implement.
