as part of the OptiEnR research project, the present paper deals with optimizing the multi-energy district boiler of La Rochelle (France) adding to the plant a controlled thermal storage tank. This plant supplies domestic hot water and heats residential and public buildings, using renewable and fossil resources. Due to the complexity of the district boiler as a whole and the strong interactions...

The Pulverized Coal Fired Boiler is a control object with time-varying parameters, large delay and multivariate tight-coupling. This paper, aiming at improving the actualities of excessive parameters and suboptimal data clustering effect in the Steam Drum Pulverized Coal Boiler running, proposes a new algorithm Fuzzy Clustering Algorithm (APFM) to fulfill the efficiency optimization of the boil...

Received Oct 21, 2017 Revised Dec 28, 2017 Accepted Jan 13, 2018 An embedded based power plant system is used for checking the environmental condition based on different sensor. The microcontroller is fixed inside the boiler which is a turbine, to monitor the status and the information is passed through GSM. In this project we proposed the main water tank supplies number of boilers. The water l...

The product of corrosion in the feed water system transported into the boiler and gets deposited on the internal surface of waterwall tubes. Proper treatment of boiler feedwater effectively protects against corrosion of feedwater heaters, economizers, and deaerators. It leads to overheating and on-load corrosion and ultimately tube failure.. Heat is transferred through a thin layer of superheat...

background: fatigue is one of the important factors in nursing performance because it affects the quality of care provided to the patients. in this regard, some complementary interventions such as benson relaxation techniques may relieve fatigue. this study aimed to evaluate the effect of benson relaxation on fatigue of nurses working in intensive care units. methods: this is an experimental st...

Power plant boiler had no arrangement of measure the coal pipe temperature in a continuous basis, though it is an important parameter for any coal fired large boiler. As pulverized coal flows through the long coal-pipe by the help of flow of hot air as a carrier, coal pipe temperature is only the measurement of the coal flow through the pipe to boiler. Low temperature indicates improper flow of...

We model a steam-boiler control system using hybrid automata. We provide two abstracted linear models of the nonlinear behavior of the boiler. For each model, we de ne and verify a controller that maintains the safe operation of the boiler. The less abstract model permits the design of a more e cient controller. We also demonstrate how the tool HyTech can be used to automatically synthesize con...

1.1. Background. This paper deals with the landmark results of Benson and Carlson's Projective resolutions and Poincar e duality complexes [6]. Our goal is to provide some necessary background for that work, and to prove some of the results of [6] in a more general setting. In particular, we analyze what happens when we replace Benson and Carlson's complex C (in the notation of [6]) with an arb...
