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...

load management and cost optimization are among the important factors in trigenerationsystems and combined cooling, heating and power (cchp) systems. in this study, an innovative cchpsystem uses a gas turbine as the prime mover and has a heat recovery steam generator (hrsg) in addition toan auxiliary boiler, electric and absorption chillers. the system is tied with the bulk electric grid; to ex...

When large capacity distributed generation including photovoltaic (PV) systems are installed in power systems, reverse power flow from PV systems may cause problem of surplus electric power. To reduce the reverse power flow without the reduction of PV power generation, energy management of customer equipment such as electric water heater is one of the solutions. Therefore, cooperative control o...

Increasing stress on water resources is driving urban water utilities to establish new concepts for water supply. This paper presents the consequences of proposed alternative water supply options using a unique combination of quantitative and qualitative methods from different research fields. A former industrial harbor area in Copenhagen, Denmark, is currently under development and all infrast...

Fuel allocation in a combined steam-injected gas turbine (STIG) power generation and multi-effect thermal vapor compression (METVC) desalination system is studied, using seven methods: (1) Products Energy Method, (2) Products Exergy Method, (3) Power-Generation-Favored Method, (4) Heat-Production-Favored Method, (5) Basic Exergetic Cost Theory, (6) Functional Approach and (7) Splitting Factor M...

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...
