Title

APPLICATION OF AN ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR OPTIMAL OPERATION OF RESERVOIRS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THREE PROPOSED FORMULATIONS

Pages

  273-285

Abstract

 This paper presents an application of the MAX-MIN ANT SYSTEM for OPTIMAL OPERATION OF RESERVOIRs using three different formulations. ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION algorithms are a meta-heuristic approach initially inspired by the observation that ants can find the shortest path between food sources and their nest. The basic algorithm of ANT COLONY OPTIMIZATION is the Ant System. Many other algorithms, such as the MAX-MIN ANT SYSTEM, have been introduced to improve the performance of the Ant System. The first step for solving problems using ant algorithms is to de ne the GRAPH of the problem under consideration. The problem GRAPH is related to the decision variables of problems. In this paper, the problem of OPTIMAL OPERATION OF RESERVOIRs is formulated using two different sets of decision variable, i.e. storage volumes and releases. It is also shown that the problem can be formulated in two different GRAPHforms when the reservoir storages are taken as the decision variables, while only one GRAPH representation is available when the releases are taken as the decision variables. The advantages and disadvantages of these formulation are discussed when an ant algorithm, such as the MAX-MIN ANT SYSTEM, is attempted to solve the underlying problem. The proposed formulations are then used to solve the problem of water supply and the hydropower operation of the “Dez" reservoir. The results are then compared with each other and those of other methods such as the Ant Colony System, Genetic Algorithms, Honey Bee Mating Optimization and the results obtained by Lingo software. The results indicate the ability of the proposed formulation and, in particular, the third formulation to optimally solve reservoir operation problems.
