Optimization of the Operation Rule Curves for Cascade Reservoirs Using the Cuckoo Search Algorithm
Reservoir operation optimization models are based on the hydrological cycle principle. These models determine the inflow and outflow necessary to meet the demands for drinking water, irrigation water, etc. Rather than optimizing each reservoir separately in cascaded reservoir systems, more efficient results are obtained if the reservoirs are optimized as a whole. In this study, the optimal operation rule curves for cascaded reservoirs were obtained by using the cuckoo search algorithm, which is a soft computing method. Both the irrigation and flood control constraints of the Adiguzel and Cindere dams in Denizli (Turkey) were satisfied by utilizing these rule curves, and the total energy production was maximized. In addition, these rule curves considered turbine efficiency, which significantly contributes to published literature. The total energy obtained with the proposed operation rule curves was 14% higher than that currently produced by the Adiguzel and Cindere dams.
