The computer program developed optimizes the hydroelectric energy production-ending storage vector relationship by minimizing the loss of potential energy of the stored water in a system of reservoirs while making the necessary releases to satisfy all the constraints.
Modeling real-time reservoir operations and developing optimal rules are formidable tasks considering a number of issues that need to be addressed within optimization and simulation models. The issues range from uncertain system inputs to implementation of operating rules in real-time. This dissertation addresses some of these issues that are relevant at different stages of real-time reservoir operation process. These issues are: (i) information uncertainty; (ii) system representation; and (iii) computational intractability. Realtime operation models are developed in the present research for single and multiple reservoir systems while addressing these issues in that order. Uncertainty generally associated with system variables in a variety of forms is a main hurdle in developing a proaches for optimizing reservoir operations. Explicit and implicit stochastic approaches based on traditional probability theory concepts cannot always handle all the uncertain elements of reservoir operation. Approaches to handle imprecise information are required as much as methodologies to address the issue of lack of information. The former issue described as information uncertainty in this thesis is addressed using fuzzy set theory. Mathematical programming models are developed under fuzzy environment to handle imprecise and uncertain components of reservoir operation problem dominated by an economic objective. The concept of 'compromise operating polices' is proposed and its utility is proved. Representation of physical system in mathematical programming formulations affects the extent to which the physics of the problem is captured and nature of the solutions that can be obtained. Tradeoffs between exhaustive representation and optimal solutions can be identified. Operation of a multiple reservoir system is considered to develop formulations of varying degree of system representation. A Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) Model with binary variables is developed to a speci.
