Dissertação (Mestrado em Engenharia Elétrica e da Computação) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2016.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/7713The problem of planning the hydrothermal systems is complex, dynamic, stochastic, interconnected and nonlinear. In this work this problem is treated to meet one goal: minimize the use of water tank during a scenario of natural river flows lean period. This paper presents the application of meta-heuristics mono-objective of this problem, using a set of eight real plants in the National Interconnected System during the period of five years. The algorithms used were: PSO, ABeePSO, LSSPSO and KFPSO. The experiments were compared to studies using Nonlinear Programming and it appears that this work presents a simulation model and optimization for flexible hydrothermal system and highly adaptable to the use of different meta-heuristics allowing the researcher to apply different algorithms and compare the results between them.application/pdfAcesso AbertoSistemas hidrotérmicos de geraçãoPlanejamento da operaçãoPesquisa operacionalAlgoritmos meta-heurísticosHydrothermal generation systemsOperation planningOperations researchMeta-heuristic algorithmsENGENHARIAS::ENGENHARIA ELETRICADissertação
