Optimal hydraulic operation of a complex two reservoir hydro-electric system

This thesis presents an example of the use of dynamic programming for optimizing the hydraulic operation of a complex two reservoir hydroelectric system in order to provide maximum firm power output. Records of natural inflows are used over a winter drawdown period for study purposes and flow fore...
