A medium- and long-term
optimal scheduling model taking maintenance and ecological scheduling for a
cascade hydropower station into consideration. The model comprises: setting common scheduling constraints, maintenance constraints and ecological scheduling constraints, taking the maximization of
cascade power generation as a goal, transforming the constraints into recognizable mathematical expressions, and establishing an
optimal scheduling model for a
cascade hydropower station; solving the model to generate an initial cascade
power station scheduling process, calculating the average
water level for time periods in the cascade
power station scheduling process, using as a corridor a region that ranges from K meters above the average
water level to K meters below the average
water level, taking the intersection of the corridor with a normal
water storage level and a
dead water level, and using the intersection as a new corridor; within the range of the corridor, respectively approximating a
water consumption rate and an expected output as polynomial functions, which are of degrees no greater than 2, of a reservoir-out flow, a
reservoir water level and a downstream
station water level, establishing a mixed-integer quadratic
programming model, and executing a solution to obtain a new cascade
power station scheduling process; and repeatedly performing iterative calculation until an end condition is met, and thereby obtaining a final cascade
hydropower station scheduling scheme and an optimal occasion for the development of maintenance and ecological scheduling.
