Verification of FPA and PSO algorithms for rule curve extraction and optimization of single- and multi-reservoir systems' operations considering their specific purposes

The optimal operation of reservoirs is known as a complex issue in water resources management, which requires consideration of numerous variables (such as downstream water demand and power generation). For this optimization, researchers have used evolutionary and meta-heuristic algorithms, which are...

description The optimal operation of reservoirs is known as a complex issue in water resources management, which requires consideration of numerous variables (such as downstream water demand and power generation).

In this research, the flower pollination algorithm (FPA) was used to optimize: (1) Aidoghmoush single-reservoir system operation for agricultural water supply, (2) Bazoft single-reservoir system operation for hydropower generation, (3) multi-reservoir system operation of Karun 5, Karun 4, and Bazoft, and (4) Bazoft single-reservoir system for rule curve extraction.
