The present sought to draw a comparison between Model Predictive Control performance and two other controllers named Simple PI and Selective PI in controlling large-scale natural gas transport networks. A nonlinear dynamic model of representative gas pipeline was derived from pipeline governing rules and simulated in SIMULINK® environment of MATLAB®. Control schemes were designed to provide a s...

Turkey has always had a continuous and strong demand to take its part in global economy which is stated very clearly after 1980s and Istanbul has always been the place of integration. Since then, there are many efforts trying to improve Istanbul’s capacity in economic, social and environmental dimensions. Recently, those efforts have begun to manifest themselves as urban regeneration projects a...

China has now become the largest country in carbon emissions all over the world. Furthermore, with transportation accounting for an increasing proportion of CO2 emissions year by year, the transportation sector has turned out to be one of the main sectors which possesses a high growth speed in CO2 emissions. To accurately analyze potentially influencing factors which accelerate the process of C...

This paper intends to take power system planning as the main module, while considering requirements and constraints of natural gas network transportation construction use energy hub model analyse transmission transformation relationship between different networks, realize system, network, transportation. Integrated for network. To verify effectiveness proposed PMIES method, an improved Garver t...

Usage of the new and alternative clean fuel is becoming a hot topic in marine transportation in accordance with environmental regulations of I.M.O. Using L.N.G as the ship fuel is a reliable and long term solution for environmental issues. Iran owing to its large number of natural gas fields and unique geographical position, has adequate potential to provide services to shipping fleets. Finding...

Due to a variety of political, economic, and technological factors, many national electricity industries around the globe are transforming from non-competitive monopolies with centralized systems to decentralized operations with competitive business units. This process, commonly referred to as deregulation (or liberalization) is driven by the belief that a monopolistic industry fails to achieve...

The article deals with the problem of using secondary energy resources in system transportation and distribution natural gas, possibility generating electricity without burning fuel by reducing high-pressure gas at stations. analysis influence temperature entrance to expander - generator unit, as well dependence power unit on low-potential source is presented. Optimal temperatures are obtained ...

Recoveries after recent earthquakes in the U.S. and Japan have shown that large welfare gains can be achieved by reshaping current emergency plans as incentive-compatible contracts. We apply tools from the mechanisms design literature to show ways to integrate economic incentives into the management of natural disasters and discuss issues related to the application to seismic event recovery. Th...
