Description
Summary:The article proposes an effective solution for maintaining a high level of power supply reliability and accident-free operation of technological equipment operating in extreme conditions of mining industry. A comparative assessment of the purpose and functional capabilities of Virtual Power Plants (VPP) used in liberalized European electricity markets and Virtual Power Plants for Russian mining enterprises is given. It is concluded that in order to ensure high reliability of power supply and functioning of the equipment of a mining enterprise, the most relevant is a virtual power plant that combines the functions of optimal dispatching strategy, monitoring and forecasting of the expected time of transition of electrical networks and equipment into a non-functional state. The functional scheme of power supply of the enterprise of mineral and raw materials complex is presented, which shows the place and functions of the virtual power plant in this system. The main tasks of the Smart grid subordinated to the VPP are considered, one of the tasks of which is the detection of abnormal and pre-emergency modes of operation of the most important units of mining equipment. To ensure real-time integrated control and coordination with various energy and technological objects, the algorithm for solving combinatorial optimization problems "fruit fly" or "fruit fly algorithm" (BAS) is proposed. The paper presents a schematic diagram and stages of building a mathematical model of BAS. Structural optimization of this algorithm, which improves the topology of the system, has been performed. As a result, the principle of "swarm intelligence of fruit fly" has been proposed, using an additional immune algorithm. The merits of this algorithm are high search efficiency, due to the realization of a self-regulation function that eliminates a fast but unreasonable solution. Since one of the goals of this algorithm is to ensure the smooth operation of mining equipment, the moni-toring of some technological parameters of this equipment is considered.
