摘要：This paper presents application of a Bee Hive Algorithm to Economic Load Dispatch which considers practical constraints and non linear characteristics. The proposed ED formulation includes ramp rate limits, valve loading effects, multiple fuels, equality and inequality constraints, which usually are found simultaneously in realistic power systems. Conventional methods such as Lambda iteration and Base point participation are not able to obtain optimal solution for units having discontinuous fuel cost functions. Bee Hive Algorithm can overcome the difficulties and provides an almost global optimal solution, since they don’t get stuck up at local optimum.
