Fig. 4.
Water release patterns of applied algorithms in the Karun-4 hydropower reservoir. The figure shows the water release pattern for the operation of the Karun-4 hydropower reservoir using the MSA, GA, and PSO algorithms. The MSA algorithm was able to store and generate more energy by water releasing less for a period of 106 months. This indicates the high capability of the MSA in calculating near-optimal global solutions.
