This paper illustrates a methodology developed in order to facilitate the analysis of complex systems characterized by a large number of technical, economical and environmental parameters. Thermo-economic modeling of a natural gas combined cycle including ...
Hybrid solar thermal power plants (with parabolic trough type of solar collectors) featuring gas burners and Rankine steam cycles have been successfully demonstrated by California's Solar Electric Generating System (SEGS). This system has been proven to be ...
The aim of the paper is the analysis of the dynamic behavior of a thermoelectric power plant equipped with a steam unit and a gas turbine during the early phases ofa black-start-up maneuver for the network restoration. Models of different detail level for ...
Combined cycles are inherently modular, since they are composed of one or several gas turbines cycles coupled with a steam cycle. Thus, it is often possible to consider repowering of conventional steam power plants by replacing the boiler with a gas turbin ...
Considering the economic importance of the electricity generation sector as well as its contribution to local, regional and global pollution, the development of new cost-effective and environmentally benign electricity generation and cogeneration systems i ...
This paper reports the results of specifying and verifying the steam boiler problem with Promela/SPIN. Several models of the system have been produced with different degrees of completeness. Each model represents an abstract level for capturing the origina ...
Starting with a classical process for producing methanol using the reforming and synthesis steps, a combined approach applying simulation models and a new synthesis strategy, named Effect Modelling and Optimisation (EMO), has been used to optimise the ener ...
Integrated solar combined cycle systems (ISCCS) represent, both economically and energetically, a promising alternative for the conversion of solar energy while offering a guarantee of a minimum power supply independant of the level of solar radiation. The ...
