Sažetak
This paper discusses and analyses the problem of load regulation within the ship's electric power system, the final goal being an optimisation of expenses. Determining an adequate distribution of load with regard to the primary electric power sources in order to achieve optimum effects constitutes an extremely difficult optimisation problem in the solving of which the application of genetic algorithm has proved to be particularly effective. The modulus of power calculations yields the data concerning voltages and losses which, together with other criteria, are used in the GA subsystem in order to conduct the optimisation, resulting in a set of solutions containing the appertaining quality evaluation. Our motivation for applying a genetic algorithm to the unit commitment problem is that it can completely replace mathematical programming methods and is easy to implement as a search procedure.
