Abstract: In this paper, a method for long-term optimal operation of hydropower station is proposed to control the frequency of reservoir level fluctuation. We introduce the integer variable which describes the rise and fall of the reservoir level, the number of changes, and the state transition equation for the change of the reservoir level fluctuation into the dynamic programming method. This method can obtain the global optimal solution under the control of different numbers of reservoir level rise and fall, thus improving the controllability and practicability of optimal operating results. We consider the maximum number of water level fluctuations as a constraint condition while the reservoir level, the state of fluctuation, and the number of state changes that have occurred as the three state variables to construct a dynamic programming model. Three state transition equations are the water balance, the state of the reservoir level rise and fall, and the number of fluctuations. Besides, the penalty function is used to handle minimum output and surplus water. We solve this model by using a dynamic programming reverse recursion equation. The application of this method in the Manwan Hydropower Station shows that it can effectively solve the frequent water level fluctuation problem that is generally inconsistent with the actual situation in the long-term optimal dispatch scheme of hydropower stations and improve the practicability of the optimal dispatch results.
