⚡ ELD Console Simulator

Welcome to the documentation for the Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) Java console app.
This tool models generator cost functions and dispatch logic for power systems.

Equations

Power at each generator,

\[P_i = \frac{lambda - b_i}{2*c_i}\]

Total generated power,

\[\sum_{i=1}^{n} P_i = P_{\text{total}}\]

Main condition to be true for lambda iteration to end:

\(P_{\text{total}} + P_{\text{tolerance}} >= P_{\text{demand}}\) or

no.of iterations > max_iterations
