In order to solve the problem of energy consumption, improve efficiency utilization and develop new energy, total consumption fluctuation thermal integrated were analyzed. Four suggestions are put forward for power system flexible plant, namely, electric heat storage system, pump g, heating high pressure via steam turbine, which can air capacity reduce coal system. Among them, in case small con...

The chromatophore of purple bacteria is an intracellular spherical vesicle that exists in numerous copies in the cell and that efficiently converts sunlight into ATP synthesis, operating typically under low light conditions. Building on an atomic-level structural model of a low-light-adapted chromatophore vesicle from Rhodobacter sphaeroides, we investigate the cooperation between more than a h...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a non-parametric technique for evaluation of relative efficiency of decision making units described by multiple inputs and outputs. it is based on solving linear programming problems. since 1978 when basic dea model was introduced many its modifications were formulated. among them are two or multi-stage models with serial or parallel structure often called net...

In this research, a pilot study and analysis of an innovative multi-channel photovoltaic/thermal (MCPV/T) system in a geographic location (35° 44' 35'' N, 50° 57' 25'' E) has been carried out. This system consists of integrating a photovoltaic panel and two PV/T heat-sink converters. The total electrical, exergy and energy efficiencies of the system at air flow rate of 0.005 kg/s and radiation ...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method for measuring the relative efficiencies of a set of decision-making units (dmus) that use multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs. in this paper, we study the measurement of dmu performances in dea in situations where input and/or output values are given as imprecise data. by imprecise data we mean situations where we only know that the actual val...

data envelopment analysis (dea) measures the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. dea-based malmquist productivity index measures the productivity change over time. we propose a dynamic dea model involving network structure in each period within the framework a dea. we have previously published the network dea (ndea) and the dynamic dea ...
