Zusammenfassung:Optimal reservoir operation is an important measure for ensuring flood-control safety and reducing disaster losses. The standard particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm can find the optimal solution of the problem by updating its position and speed, but it is easy to fall into a local optimum. In order to prevent the problem of precocious convergence, a novel simulated annealing particle swarm optimization (SAPSO) algorithm was proposed in this study, in which the Boltzmann equation from the simulated annealing algorithm was incorporated into the iterative process of the PSO algorithm. Within the maximum flood peak reduction criterion, the SAPSO algorithm was used into two floods in the Tianzhuang–Bashan cascade reservoir system. The results shown that: (1) There are lower maximum outflows. The maximum outflows of Tianzhuang reservoir using SAPSO algorithm decreased by 9.3% and 8.6%, respectively, compared with the measured values, and those of Bashan reservoir decreased by 18.5% and 13.5%, respectively; (2) there are also lower maximum water levels. The maximum water levels of Tianzhuang reservoir were 0.39 m and 0.45 m lower than the measured values, respectively, and those of Bashan reservoir were 0.06 m and 0.46 m lower, respectively; and (3) from the convergence processes, the SAPSO algorithm reduced the convergence speed in the early stage of convergence and provided a superior objective function value than PSO algorithm. At the same time, by comparing with GA algorithm, the performance and applicability of SAPSO algorithm in flood operation are discussed further. Thus, the optimal operation model and SAPSO algorithm proposed in this study provide a new approach to realizing the optimal flood-control operation of cascade reservoir systems.
