Abstract
This paper suggests heat transfer search (HTS) algorithm for solving complicated combined heat and power economic dispatch (CHPED) problem. The valve point effect, prohibited operating zones of conventional thermal generators and transmission loss are taken into consideration. The main objective of the CHPED problem is to minimize the total fuel cost for producing electricity and heat supplying to a load demand. HTS is a novel meta-heuristic optimization algorithm that is based on the law of thermodynamics and heat transfer. The efficiency of the suggested HTS algorithm has been confirmed on four test systems. Test results of the suggested HTS algorithm have been compared with those achieved by other evolutionary algorithms. It has been observed from the comparison that the suggested HTS algorithm has the ability to offer superior solution.
