Abstract

The most important phase in many industrial power applications is the design problem. Usually the demand increases randomly with time in the form of a cumulative demand curve. To adapt the power system capacity to the demand, new power architecture is predicted. To build this latter, the reliability optimization plays an important role to find the realizable power system architecture. This chapter describes and uses different meta-heuristics optimization methods to solve the redundancy optimization problem for multi-state series-parallel power systems. The authors consider the case where redundant power components are chosen to achieve a desirable level of reliability. The power components of the system are characterized by their cost, capacity, and reliability. The proposed meta-heuristics seek the optimal architectures of series-parallel power systems in which a multiple choice of components are allowed from a list of products available in the market. The approach has the advantage of allowing power components with different parameters to be allocated in power systems. To allow fast reliability estimation, a Moment Generating Function (MGF) method is applied. An illustrative example is presented.
