In this paper, the annual and economic performance of an integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) with indirect energy storage tanks is investigated. The study includes four scenarios, in which the combined cycle performance was studied exclusively in the first scenario. In the second scenario, the integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) was examined, and the use of supplementary firing instead of...

For agriculture-based economies, energy generation through biomass is currently among the few practical means for overcoming and environmental crisis. However, economic assessment bioenergy poses significant challenges to developing nations due limited availability of data existing financial models. This study therefore conducts an Pakistan based on Levelized Cost Electricity (LCOE) those techn...

On maintenance optimization for offshore wind farms FRANÇOIS BESNARD Abstract The maintenance cost is known to be an important part of the levelized cost of energy generated by wind parks. Operational costs can be significantly reduced by optimizing decisions for maintenance strategies, maintenance support organization and maintenance planning. This is especially important for offshore wind pow...

in this paper, the optimal location and characteristics of tadas dampers in moment resisting steel structures, considering the application of minimum number of tadas dampers in a building as an objective function and the restriction for destruction of main members is studied. genetic algorithm in first generation randomly produces different chromosomes representing unique tadas dampers distribu...
