The model mainly consists of two parts, the determination of initial configuration schemes according to user preference and the selection of the optimal scheme. The comprehensive evaluation index(CEI), which is acquired through the analytic hierarchy process(AHP) weight calculation method, is adopted as the evaluation criterion to rank the initial schemes. The optimal scheme is obtained according to the ranking results. The proposed model takes the diversity of different equipment parameters and investment cost into consideration and can give relatively suitable and economical suggestions for system configuration.Additionally, unlike Homer Pro, the proposed model considers the complementation of different renewable energy resources, and thus the rationality of the multi-energy DG system is improved compared with the single evaluation criterion method which only considers the total cost.展开更多

Optimal scheduling and utilization of these energies within energy systems are crucial to realize a reduction in the cost, energy use, and CO_2 emissions.However, it is difficult to model and schedule energy usage within steel works because different types of energy and devices are involved. The energy hub(EH), as a universal modeling frame, is widely used in multi-energy systems to improve its efficiency, flexibility, and reliability.This paper proposed an efficient multi-layer model based on the EH concept, which is designed to systematically model the energy system and schedule energy within steelworks to meet the energy demand. Besides, to simulate the actual working conditions of the energy devices, the method of fitting the curve is used to describe the efficiency of the energy devices. Moreover, to evaluate the applicability of the proposed model, a case study is conducted to minimize both the economic operation cost and CO_2 emissions. The optimal results demonstrated that the model is suitable for energy systems within steel works. Further, the economic operation cost decreased by 3.41%, and CO_2 emissions decreased by approximately 3.67%.展开更多

Through multi-energy coordination and cooperation, they can significantly improve their individual operating efficiency and overall economic benefits. Demand response, as a multi-energy supply and demand balance method, can further improve system flexibility and economy. Therefore, a multi-energy cooperative system optimization model has been proposed, which is driven by price-based demand response to determine the impact of power-demand response on the optimal operating mode of a multi-energy cooperative system. The main components of the multi-energy collaborative system have been analyzed. The multi-energy coupling characteristics have been identified based on the energy hub model. Using market elasticity as a basis, a price-based demand response model has been built. The model has been optimized to minimize daily operating cost of the multi-energy collaborative system. Using data from an actual situation, the model has been verified, and we have shown that the adoption of price-based demand response measures can significantly improve the economy of multi-energy collaborative systems.展开更多

With the increasing coupling of heterogeneous energy flow, the system characteristics of coupling are becoming more and more obvious and more complicated. The modeling, analysis and control methods of traditional single flow systems have not been applied directly. Therefore, it is necessary to study the modeling of multi-energy flow coupling, the power flow analysis, optimization and control method of heterogeneous energy flow, which plays the role of multi-energy flow synergy to avoid the adverse effects of coupling. This paper summarizes the current research situation of energy Internet at home and abroad from the aspects of modeling of multi-energy flow, power flow calculation and optimal dispatching, and analyzes the existing problems in the research of these aspects.展开更多

This method relies on the fact that photon attenuation varies with its energy and properties of the absorbing medium. Low-energy gamma-ray intensity loss is sensitive to the atomic number of the absorbing medium, while that of higher-energies vary with the density of the medium. To verify the usefulness of this feature for NDM, we carried out simultaneous measurements of intensities of multiple gamma rays of energies 81 to 1408 keV emitted by sources<sup> 133</sup>Ba (half-life = 10.55 y) and <sup>152</sup>Eu (half-life = 13.52 y). By this arrangement, we could detect minute quantities of lead and copper in a bulk medium from energy dependent gamma-ray attenuations. It seems that this method will offer a reliable, low-cost, low-maintenance alternative to X-ray or accelerator-based techniques for the NDM of high-Z materials such as mercury, lead, uranium, and transuranic elements etc.展开更多

The TN...The accidental release of a flammable gas on a road can result in a vapour cloud explosion (VCE). Such VCEs generate a blast wave that propagates away from the explosion, potentially damaging nearby structures. The TNO Multi-Energy Method is commonly used for a simplified estimate of the blast load resulting from a VCE. The method characterises the severity and duration of the blast wave using a case-specific strength class and combustion energy (which the method relates to the gas volume of the equivalent blast source). However, no specific guidelines for estimating the strength class in urban roads or related settings (such as carparks) are currently available in the literature. This makes implementing the method in such scenarios challenging and imprecise. The authors’ work used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to evaluate multiple gas explosion scenarios and proposed recommendations for determining the strength class and gas volume at the blast source. These scenarios comprised a group of vehicles engulfed by a stoichiometric propane-air cloud. It was concluded that the strength class could be reasonably estimated based on the number of vehicles in the transverse direction. Furthermore, the guidance for estimating the gas volume at the equivalent blast source was based on the critical gas volume, after which no further enhancement of overpressure was obtained. The recommendations were implemented in several scenarios and compared with corresponding CFD analyses. The results showed very good agreement for predicting impulse. Predicting overpressure was affected by the inherent asymmetry of the scenarios, although it was possible to achieve acceptable and conservative results.展开更多

The main components of the multi-energy collaborative system have been analyzed. The multi-energy coupling characteristics have been identified based on the energy hub model. Using market elasticity as a basis, a price-based demand response model has been built. The model has been optimized to minimize daily operating cost of the multi-energy collaborative system. Using data from an actual situation, the model has been verified, and we have shown that the adoption of price-based demand response measures can significantly improve the economy of multi-energy collaborative systems.

文摘In order to solve the core issue of the energy regulation (ER) on multi-energy resource powertrain of fuel cell vehicle, the work functions of each component were defined; the mathematical algorithm model of energy regulation was established and the relevant solution was found. This algorithm was evaluated successfully on the hardware in loop (FILL) platform under three typical urban running cycles. The results showed ER control target had been realized and the mathematical algorithm was effective and reasonable. Based on the HIL simulation, some conclusions and ER strategies were made. According to the different power component parameters and real time control request, this algorithm should be modified and calibrated for application in the actual control system.
文摘Multi-energy flow (MEF) coupling is one of the key features of the energy Internet and integrated energy systems that are different from smart grids. With the increasing coupling of heterogeneous energy flow, the system characteristics of coupling are becoming more and more obvious and more complicated. The modeling, analysis and control methods of traditional single flow systems have not been applied directly. Therefore, it is necessary to study the modeling of multi-energy flow coupling, the power flow analysis, optimization and control method of heterogeneous energy flow, which plays the role of multi-energy flow synergy to avoid the adverse effects of coupling. This paper summarizes the current research situation of energy Internet at home and abroad from the aspects of modeling of multi-energy flow, power flow calculation and optimal dispatching, and analyzes the existing problems in the research of these aspects.

In this paper, aiming at the demand of the energy application for towns, a distributed energy system based on multi-energy complementary is constructed. Firstly, the supply condition of the distributed energy for the demonstration project is analyzed, and the architecture of the multi-energy complementary distributed energy system is established. Then the regulation strategy of the multi-energy complementary distributed energy system is proposed. Finally, an overall system scheme for the multi-energy complementary distributed energy system suitable for towns is developed, which provides a solid foundation for the development and promotion of the multi-energy complementary distributed energy system.
文摘We present a non-destructive method (NDM) to identify minute quantities of high atomic number (<em>Z</em>) elements in containers such as passenger baggage, goods carrying transport trucks, and environmental samples. This method relies on the fact that photon attenuation varies with its energy and properties of the absorbing medium. Low-energy gamma-ray intensity loss is sensitive to the atomic number of the absorbing medium, while that of higher-energies vary with the density of the medium. To verify the usefulness of this feature for NDM, we carried out simultaneous measurements of intensities of multiple gamma rays of energies 81 to 1408 keV emitted by sources<sup> 133</sup>Ba (half-life = 10.55 y) and <sup>152</sup>Eu (half-life = 13.52 y). By this arrangement, we could detect minute quantities of lead and copper in a bulk medium from energy dependent gamma-ray attenuations. It seems that this method will offer a reliable, low-cost, low-maintenance alternative to X-ray or accelerator-based techniques for the NDM of high-Z materials such as mercury, lead, uranium, and transuranic elements etc.

文摘Liquefied natural gas (LNG),recognized as the primary form for natural gas transportation,can release substantial cold energy during gasification.To make efficient use of this cold energy,this paper proposes a data-driven stochastic robust (DDSR) energy management method for the multi-stage cascade utilization of LNG cold energy in a multi-energy microgrid (MEMG) of an LNG receiving terminal.Firstly,a general scheduling model considering the flexible coupling between adjacent stages,energy losses,and electric power consumption for the cascade utilization of LNG cold energy is introduced.This model is applied to carbon capture,cryogenic power generation,and direct cooling,which are sequentially associated with the deep,medium,and shallow cooling zones of LNG cold energy,respectively.Moreover,a two-stage energy management framework is proposed to coordinate the cascade utilization of LNG cold energy with other energy resources in the MEMG.To tackle the uncertainties of renewable energy generation and various loads,a DDSR-based solution method is developed,aiming to achieve both economic benefits and solution robustness by identifying the worst-case scenarios and the corresponding worst-case probability.Accordingly,a Benders decomposition-based solution algorithm is proposed to divide the original problem into a master problem and a slave problem,which are solved iteratively.The simulation results verify the effectiveness and high efficiency of the proposed DDSR energy management method for multi-stage cascade utilization of LNG cold energy.
文摘The accidental release of a flammable gas on a road can result in a vapour cloud explosion (VCE). Such VCEs generate a blast wave that propagates away from the explosion, potentially damaging nearby structures. The TNO Multi-Energy Method is commonly used for a simplified estimate of the blast load resulting from a VCE. The method characterises the severity and duration of the blast wave using a case-specific strength class and combustion energy (which the method relates to the gas volume of the equivalent blast source). However, no specific guidelines for estimating the strength class in urban roads or related settings (such as carparks) are currently available in the literature. This makes implementing the method in such scenarios challenging and imprecise. The authors’ work used computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to evaluate multiple gas explosion scenarios and proposed recommendations for determining the strength class and gas volume at the blast source. These scenarios comprised a group of vehicles engulfed by a stoichiometric propane-air cloud. It was concluded that the strength class could be reasonably estimated based on the number of vehicles in the transverse direction. Furthermore, the guidance for estimating the gas volume at the equivalent blast source was based on the critical gas volume, after which no further enhancement of overpressure was obtained. The recommendations were implemented in several scenarios and compared with corresponding CFD analyses. The results showed very good agreement for predicting impulse. Predicting overpressure was affected by the inherent asymmetry of the scenarios, although it was possible to achieve acceptable and conservative results.

文摘Multi-energy microgrid(MEMG)offers an effective approach to deal with energy demand diversification and new energy consumption on the consumer side.In MEMG,it is critical to deploy an energy management system(EMS)to efficiently utilize energy and ensure reliable system operation.To help EMS formulate optimal dispatching schemes,a deep reinforcement learning(DRL)-based MEMG energy management scheme with renewable energy source(RES)uncertainty is proposed in this paper.To accurately describe the operating state of the MEMG,the off-design performance model of energy conversion devices is considered in scheduling.The nonlinear optimal dispatching model is expressed as a Markov decision process(MDP)and is then addressed by the twin delayed deep deterministic policy gradient(TD3)algorithm.In addition,to accurately describe the uncertainty of RES,the conditional-least squares generative adversarial networks(C-LSGANs)method based on RES forecast power is proposed to construct the scenario set of RES power generation.The generated data of RES is used to schedule the acquisition of caps and floors for the purchase of electricity and natural gas.Based on this,the superior energy supply sector can formulate solutions in advance to tackle the uncertainty of RES.Finally,the simulation analysis demonstrates the validity and superiority of the method.

文摘In the pursuit of carbon peaking and neutrality goals,multi-energy parks,as major energy consumers and carbon emitters,urgently require low-carbon operational strategies.This paper proposes an electricity-carbon synergy-driven optimization method for the low-carbon operation ofmulti-energy parks.Themethod integratesmultienergy complementary scheduling with a tiered carbon trading mechanism to balance operational security,economic efficiency,and environmental objectives.A mixed-integer linear programming model is developed to characterize the coupling relationships and dynamic behaviors of key equipment,including photovoltaic systems,ground-source heat pumps,thermal storage electric boilers,combined heat and power units,and electrical energy storage systems.Furthermore,a tiered carbon trading model is established that incorporates carbon quota allocation and tiered carbon pricing to internalize carbon costs and discourage high-emission practices.Multi-scenario comparative analyses demonstrate that the electricity-carbon synergy scenario achieves a 42.64%reduction in carbon emissions compared to economy-oriented operation,while limiting the increase in operational costs to 20.85%.The carbon-prioritized scenario further reduces emissions by 9.7%,underscoring the inhibitory effect of the tiered carbon pricing mechanism on highcarbon activities.Sensitivity analyses confirm the model’s robustness against fluctuations in energy load,uncertainty in renewable generation,and variations in carbon price.This optimization method provides theoretical support for multi-energy coordinated scheduling and carbon responsibility allocation in industrial parks,offering valuable insights for promoting green transformation initiatives.
