英文摘要

      Aiming at the optimization problem of cooling water system, an improved parallel particle swarm optimization (IPPSO) algorithm is proposed. The optimization goal is to minimize the energy consumption of the system, and the equipment operating parameters in the system are taken as optimization variables to solve the problem. In this algorithm, the random and chaotic sequence mechanisms are used to initialize the particles of the two groups respectively, so that the two groups present different characteristics at the initial stage of generation; based on the characteristics of the two groups, different inertia weight improved strategies are adopted to improve algorithm search ability; at the same time, a new migration operator is proposed to exchange individuals between the groups to enhance the diversity of particles. In addition, because the number of system equipment running is an integer and limited by its total equipment number, an exhaustive method is introduced. Some equipment operating parameters in the system are optimized, reducing the workload of optimal solution verification and shortening the optimization time. Finally, a detailed test is carried out on an actual cooling water system, and the results show that after using the IPPSO algorithm to optimize the equipment operating parameters, the total energy consumption of the cooling water system is reduced by 12.49%, which performs a good energy-saving effect. Simultaneously, compared with the other algorithms, IPPSO can obtain better optimization strategies, and has advantages in convergence, computational complexity and robustness.
