Economic Load Dispatch using the Linear programming method (Piece wise Linear Cost Curve Method )

This program allocates the optimum load to each unit committed meeting the equality constraints

You are now following this Submission

The program takes the cost curve coefficients, the minimum and maximum capacity of units and the break points of the non- linear curve to me minimized.
