An energy storage system based on battery and supercapacitors is presented. It allows bigger amount of intantaneous power. The properties of the proposed system are oriented in high efficiency, in a special topology with parallel channels. The paper presen ...
Multi-objective optimisation (MOO) has been used with an equation solver data reconciliation software to develop a tool for sensor system design based on modifying the sensitivity matrix of a simulated process. MOO enables searching for the best trade-off ...
This paper presents the optimal design and operation of a micro power generation process that consists of a reactor, a solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and two burners in a stack fed with ammonia and butane fuels. Hydrogen is produced from ammonia decompositio ...
Numerous degrees of freedom are often available for the heat integration of batch processes. Usually, only few of these are actually considered and optimized. Time slice-dependant Tmin have been investigated and optimized using a supertargeting procedure o ...
This work addresses the indirect heat integration (i.e. resorting to intermediate heat storage) and the direct heat integration (i.e. heat exchanges between coexisting process streams) of batch processes. Tools and methods for the targeting of these two li ...
This paper presents a methodology for the optimal design and operation of man-portable power generation devices based on fuel cells. To illustrate the methodology, we focus on a simple process that consists of a fuel processing reactor, a solid-oxide fuel ...
This paper introduces a methodology for the heat integration of industrial batch processes. Based on Pinch Analysis principles, this methodology resorts to intermediate heat storage to prevent adverse effects on the operating flexibility. A systematic proc ...

A comparative study has demonstrated that the formerly developed Pinch Analysis (PA) based targeting and design methods outperform (in both heat recovery and cost-effectiveness) the simplified combinatorial design methods proposed by other authors (namely ...
The principle of air compression can be utilized for the storage of electrical energy, with variable properties from the point of view of the energy efficiency. For the involved thermodynamic phenomena different approaches and realized systems lead to more ...
