Distribution of Deviation Distance to Alternative Fuel Stations
This paper derives the distribution of the deviation distance to visit an alternative fuel station. Distance is measured as the Euclidean distance on a continuous plane. The distribution explicitly considers the vehicle range and whether the round trip between origin and destination can be made. Three cases are examined: fuel is available at both origin and destination, fuel is available at eit...
متن کاملOptimal location of discretionary alternative-fuel stations on a tree-network
Due to global concerns about environmental sustainability in ground logistics, there has been widespread research into alternative-fuel (alt-fuel) vehicles. Compressed natural gas buses have been successfully deployed on a commercial scale in public transportation. Also, sales for electric cars have been gradually increasing. However, uses of other alt-fuel vehicles are in their early stages be...
متن کاملParametric Study of Fuel Vapor Concentration Distribution Due to Vaporization of Fuel Droplets in Free Atmosphere
The growth of a two-phase cloud of a liquid fuel in a stagnant atmosphere is studied using computational fluid dynamic techniques. In order to predict the danger and hazard of such cloud in open atmosphere it is very important to determine the fuel concentration in the cloud, especially in the far field region from the fuel reservoir. The results show that with omission of droplets break up...
متن کاملEvaluation of Concentration of BTEX and PAHs and Its Effective Parameters in Gasoline Fuel Distribution Stations: A Case Study in Single Purpose Stations in Karaj
Background and Objective: One of the sources of emissions of BTEX and PAHs is fuel distribution stations in cities. This study aimed to evaluate and monitor the concentrations of BTEX and PAHs and the parameters affecting them in gasoline distribution stations in Karaj. Materials and Methods: Sampling was performed to determine the concentration of BTEX and PAHs and the parameters affecting it ...
متن کاملHeuristic algorithms for siting alternative-fuel stations using the Flow-Refueling Location Model
This paper presents three heuristic algorithms that solve for the optimal locations for refueling stations for alternative-fuels, such as hydrogen, ethanol, biodiesel, natural gas, or electricity. The Flow Refueling Location Model (FRLM) locates refueling stations to maximize the flow that can be refueled with a given number of facilities. The FRLM uses path-based demands, and because of the li...
