Estudo e análise do despacho econômico de unidades geradoras associado ao fluxo de carga

Abstract

This work presents a study of optimization for the Economic Dispatch problem using the Primal-Dual Interior-Point Method. The formulation of the problem and its solution are exemplified using a numerical didactic example, where all the steps of the Primal-Dual Interior-Point Method are demonstrated in a simple and complete way. Using a routine previously developed and compiled with the MATLAB software, several computational simulations were performed, and the optimal results were discussed, analyzing all the variables of the optimization problem. After a study of the formulation of the load flow problem, the results obtained from economic dispatch are associated with the load flow of a test system, using the ANAREDE program to perform computer simulations. The results of these simulations are presented and analyzed. The conclusions of this study, considering all the simulated cases, are presented in the final chapter of this work.
