In this paper a distributed Model Predictive Control design is presented for inter-area oscillation damping in power systems under two critical cyber-physical constraints namely, communication constraints that lead to ...

Electromechanical oscillations in power systems have been observed ever since synchronous generators were interconnected to provide reliability and higher generation capacity, and they have become a severe threat for the ...

Finite element models (FEMs) are extensively used in the design optimization of utility scale steam turbines. As an example, by simulating multiple startup scenarios of steam power plants, engineers can obtain turbine ...

In this study, for a near-room-temperature magnetic cooling system, a decoupled multiphysics numerical approach (Magnetism, Fluid Flow, and Heat Transfer) is developed using a commercial CFD solver, ANSYS-FLUENT, as a ...

This paper presents an online distributed control design for suppressing inter-area oscillations in large power systems under structural constraints posed on the underlying communication network. The presence of multiple ...

In this study, performance of a near room temperature magnetic cooling system was investigated experimentally in terms of temperature span. The current setup has a permanent magnet pairs (0.7 Tesla), a magnetocaloric ...

In this study, performance of a radiant heating-cooling via air source heat pump was investigated. This study is part of a project funded by European Union's FP7 for research, technological development and demonstration. ...

Finite element models (FEMs) are extensively used in the design optimization of utility scale steam turbines. As an example, by simulating multiple startup scenarios of steam power plants, engineers can obtain turbine ...

Wastewater heat recovery applications are becoming widespread in energy saving applications. A sustainable and low emissions operation in air conditioning and heating processes is achieved by harvesting the otherwise wasted ...

The contribution of this paper is in two-folds: 1) If more predictive and intelligent control of the thermostat set-points with no explicit models of Root Top Units (RTUs) yet with simplistic lumped parameter thermal models ...
