A method for power flow calculation and optimal dispatch of gas–thermal–electricity multi energy system considering unit commitment

Abstract

The optimal scheduling of integrated energy system considering unit commitment is a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem with 0-1 binary variables, and the efficient solution of MINLP has always been a research hotspot. In this paper, a power flow calculation method of gas thermal power multi energy coupling system is proposed. Considering the output of coal-fired, gas-fired and new energy units, a simplified unit commitment calculation model is established, which can greatly reduce the number of binary variables and constraints. At the same time, an optimal scheduling model with minimum economic cost and minimum carbon emission is established. For the nonlinear and non convex problem of air pressure equations, the incremental piecewise linearization method based on the idea of feasible region segmentation is used to transform it into MILP model, and the effective optimal solution is obtained. Finally, an example is given to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed algorithm.
