Using Fluid Queues to Model Energy Storage and Distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Energy storage and distribution is an increasingly important problem as renewable (and generally unreliable) energy sources supply more of our power needs. In this extended abstract we consider a simple network of energy suppliers, consumers and buffers modelled as fluid queues. Analytical evaluation of networks of fluid queues is hard as even tandem networks do no have a product form solution. We improve an approximation algorithm previously introduced to work in this new setting and evaluate our results using the Java JINQS simulator.

In power grids, there must always be a balance between energy production and consumption. Due to the variable nature of consumers, energy production should also be subject to these changes. Electricity storage is one of the most important issues in the electricity industry, which can generate many ancillary services such as load curve leveling, peak shaving, integration with renewable units, ro...
متن کاملFluid Models for Multiserver Queues with Abandonments
Deterministic fluid models are developed to provide simple first-order performance descriptions for multi-server queues with abandonment under heavy loads. Motivated by telephone call centers, the focus is on multi-server queues with a large number of servers and non-exponential service-time and time-to-abandon distributions. The first fluid model serves as an approximation for the G/GI/s + GI ...
