Abstract

CATALAO, João; MARIANO, Sílvio; MENDES, Victor  and  FERREIRA, Luís. Optimal scheduling of hydro power systems considering the head change effect. Inv. Op. [online]. 2007, vol.27, n.1, pp.37-52. ISSN 0874-5161.

This paper focuses on the optimal scheduling of hydro power systems. A new methodology based on nonlinear optimisation is proposed for solving the problem considering the head change effect. The numerical results obtained for a case study illustrate the behaviour of the new methodology proposed.

Keywords : Optimal scheduling; Nonlinear optimisation; Head change effect.
