Popis: | This study presents two mixed-integer programmings formulations for the unit commitment (UC) problem. First, the authors proposed a variable upper bound-based UC formulation, which is simultaneously tight and compact. Moreover, the tighter and relatively compact multi-period formulation is also presented. Both formulations (‘Multi_New’ and ‘Mult’) are tighter than the previous 2-bin (Base) and the tighter characteristic largely reduces the computational time of the formulations. Compared to the ‘Base’ formulation, the proposed formulations reduced by at least 6.6%, even 42.1% in the average time of calculation. The proposed models were tested on 73 instances over a scheduling period of 24 and 48 h. Compared to the ‘Base’ formulation, the initial Gap of ‘New’ formulation is improved by at least 8.4%. Moreover, compared to ‘Multi’ formulation, the compactness of ‘Multi_New’ formulation is improved by at least 33%. In addition, the numeric experiments show dramatic improvements in computational time for their proposed models. They provide evidence that the proposed models have better performance than the previous models. |
