Since the emergence of power market, the target of power generating utilities has mainly switched from cost minimization to revenue maximization. They dispatch their power energy generation units in the uncertain environment of power market. As a result, multi-stage stochastic programming has been applied widely by many power generating agents as a suitable tool for dealing with self-scheduling...

the people’s republic of china is an ever rising world power and islamic republic of iran is one of the most powerful countries in the persian gulf region. the ever increasing world needs for oil and the role of iran and persian gulf in satisfying this need has made these relations more significant. the foreign policy of the fifth generation of leadership in people’s republic of china towards t...

some geothermal reservoirs have temperatures below boiling point and therefore natural steam can not be produced for power generation. refrigerant power cycles may be then employed to recover low temperature heat. in this article study is made of the power cycles of six different relligrants and most suitable refrigerants for this purpose are suggested

The increasing concern of global climate changes, the promotion of renewable energy sources, primarily wind generation, is a welcome move to reduce the pollutant emissions from conventional power plants. Integration of wind power generation with the existing power network is an emerging research field. This paper presents a meta-heuristic algorithm based approach to determine the feasible dispa...

nowadays, energy plays an important role in the economic and community development of country. consequently, performance analysis of energy systems is one of the effective methods being used to prevent waste of energy resources. among the different power generation technologies, steam power plants make a significant contribution to power generation in iran, with a share of 47 % of electricity g...

power transformers provide a vital link between the generation and distribution of produced energy. such static equipment is subjected to abuse during operation in generation and distribution stations and leads to catastrophic failures. this paper reviewed the techniques in the field of condition monitoring of power transformers in recent years. transformer monitoring and diagnosis are the effe...

due to the high penetration of wind farms in the networks, they can have a significant role in the control of power systems. in this paper, wind farms (wfs) are used to improve the static security margins of the power system. generation rescheduling is one of the remedies to improve the static security margins of the power system. in this paper, the generation rescheduling is presented based on...
