- Abstract
Reservoir operation and management are complex engineering problems, due to the stochastic nature of inflow, various demands and as well as tailwater in the downstream. The complexity increases when the number of reservoirs gets increased such as multi-reservoir system or chain system. To obtain optimal operation in such condition become more difficult. It requires powerful optimization algorithm to solve aforesaid problems. Teaching Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm and Jaya Algorithm (JA) are recently developed advanced optimization techniques a novel approach comparatively simple, easy, and robust. The main advantages of these algorithms are it only requires the common control parameters such as number of iterations and population size. In the present study, three different benchmark problems were evaluated to check the applicability and performance of TLBO and JA in multi-reservoir operation problems. The benchmark problems are the discrete time four-reservoir operation (DFRO), the continuous time four-reservoir operation (CFRO), and the ten-reservoir operation (TRO). The results from the TLBO and JA are compared with different approaches from the literature. The optimal net benefits obtained from JA for DFRO, CFRO and TRO problems are 401.44, 308.40 and 1194.59, respectively, and that of TLBO algorithm are 401.33, 308.30 and 1194.44, respectively. It is found that both JA and TLBO algorithms provided a satisfactory solution as other optimization techniques, from literature. In conclusion, JA outperformed over TLBO.
