the synthesis of heat integrated multi-component distillation systems is complex due to its huge search space for structural combination and optimization computation. to provide a systematic approach and tools for the synthesis design of distillation systems, a new method for modeling heat integrated columns is presented, and the operating cost objective function is minimized by improved harmon...

renewable energy sources (res), especially wind power plants, have high priority of promotion in the energy policies worldwide. an increasing share of res and distributed generation (dg), should, as has been assumed, provide improvement in reliability of electricity delivery to the customers. paper presented here concentrates on electricity storage systems technologies and applications pinpoint...

This paper proposes a new configuration for solar energy conversion systems. One challenging issue of the photovoltaic (PV) systems is partial shading, and in this paper Module Integrated Converters (MIC) are used to overcome this problem in PV arrays. A few boost converters are employed as MICs to mitigate the shading effect. Furthermore, to reduce the cost and to increase the system performan...

The operation of wind energy conversion systems mainly deals with variable and unpredictable wind regimes resulting in variable power efficiency. In addition, nowadays with the presence of high penetration level of wind farms integrated to power systems, stability and power quality problems might be addressed, when a disturbance event occurs. These challenges are worsened with significant degre...

With the development of power-to-gas (P2G) technology and demand-response (DR) technology, new ideas have been proposed for research into scheduling strategy integrated energy systems (IER). Focusing on wind power consumption, this paper proposes a day-ahead IER with P2G equipment, taking consideration DR. On consumption side, demand elasticity matrix is introduced to describe user’s participat...

This paper demonstrates the use of dynamic simulation to model and assess resilience an integrated energy system. First, several approaches from field assessment are evaluated, most suitable is chosen adapted develop a metric that applicable results. Second, as proof concept, system (gas, heat power sector) presented evaluated using introduced metric. To demonstrate how changes in architecture ...
