Multi-Objective Energy Optimal Scheduling of Multiple Pulsed Loads in Isolated Power Systems

Abstract

Isolated power systems (IPS) usually have multifaceted operational objectives in engineering scenarios, and many key tasks are performed by multiple pulsed loads. The research on multi-objective energy optimal scheduling in isolated power systems which contain multiple pulsed loads is the subject of this paper. In addition, optimal mobility and maximum multiple pulsed load performance value are discussed. By introducing the concept of ship speed at the end state, isolated power system maneuverability is properly characterized by the final state ship speed, combined with the maximum efficiency of multiple pulsed loads, and a multi-objective optimization model of weighted form is constructed using a general, given solution method. In addition, two specific solutions regarding typical engineering scenarios are proposed in this paper: accelerating the catch-up situation and accelerating the evacuation situation. Algorithms for general situations and specific solutions regarding typical engineering scenarios are proposed. Study cases regarding specific engineering scenarios are demonstrated to verify the correctness and efficiency of the method. Finally, the limitations and shortcomings of the established methodology are emphasized.
