A Rational Operation Scheduling Using Genetic Algorithms on Cogeneration System for Paper Mill

제지공장용 열병합발전시스템에서 유전알고리즘을 이용한 합리적 운전계획 수립에 관한 연구

This paper proposed the optimal operational scheduling of cogeneration system for paper mill connected with several auxiliary devices. Auxiliary devices that include auxiliary boilers, waste heat boilers and sludge incinerators operate with multi-cogeneration systems. Especially environment element was considered in objective function to solve the environment problem. And GAs(Genetic Algorithms) was applied to optimize and to analyse nonlinear operational property of cogeneration system of paper mill connected with several auxiliary devices. C-language was used to GAs computation. Electricity can be purchased through power system from utility. The proposed operational strategy on cogeneration system for paper mill to increase energy efficiency can be applied to the similar cogeneration system of industrial field.
