Abstract
Selection of adequate power transformers is among the most important factors for ensuring well-operated and optimized power generation and distribution systems, which imposes the need for applying optimization methods in order to obtain comprehensive evaluation process. In the paper, a multi-criteria group decision-making supportive model for the power transformer evaluation is proposed; the model is based on integration of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the compromise ranking method with fuzzy Set Theory. The AHP method was utilized in order to estimate the criteria relative weights, whereas the compromise ranking method was used for alternative assessment and compromise ranking. Integration of the fuzzy logic within the proposed model allows dealing with problem of the ambiguities of human perceptions and provides more rational results. A numerical example illustrates the proposed methodology on the real MCDM problem of power transformers selection.
