2. 1. On Model Libraries for Thermo-hydraulic Applications

   Author : Jonas Eborn; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modeling; simulation; Matematik; Automation; Termisk teknik; control systems; nonlinear models; parameter estimation; proces s control; thermo-hydraulic systems; model validation; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; termodynamik; Automatiska system; robotics; control engineering; reglerteknik; robotteknik; Mathematics; object-oriented;

   Abstract : Mathematical modelling and simulation are important tools when dealing with engineering systems that today are becoming increasingly more complex. Tightly integrated production and process optimization are trends that give rise to heterogeneous systems, which are difficult to handle without expertise in several engineering disciplines.

   Abstract : The effects of greenhouse gas net emissions on global warming, stricter legislation on waste handling, and the pursuit of ever cheaper heat- and power production are all important factors driving the introduction of complex fuels in incineration plants. However - without fundamental knowledge regarding ash transformation, corrosion control, and materials selection – this introduction of potentially economically and environmentally beneficial fuels, might instead cause economic loss and environmentally adverse effects.

5. 3. Analysing the transient operation of the boiler and the TES tank for improving the flexibility in biomass CHP

   Author : Milan Zlatkovikj; Hailong Li; Lei Feng; Mälardalens universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flexibility; combined heat and power CHP ; boiler; thermal energy storage TES ; feed-forward model predictive control FF MPC ; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : The uncertainty in the energy systems due to the continuously growing share of variable renewable energy sources (VRES) increases the requirements for flexibility. From the multiple mechanisms to improve flexibility, biomass-fired combined heat and power plants (CHPs) have gained attention due to their sustainability and high efficiency. READ MORE

6. 4. Modelling Towards Control of Dynamic Systems : Applications on RDF Fired CFB Performance and DHN Distribution

   Author : Nathan Zimmerman; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; Carl-Fredrik Lindberg; Erik Dahlquist; Natasa Nord; Mälardalens universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heat and Power; Circulating Fluidized Bed Boiler; District Heating; Model Predictive Control; Feed-Forward; CHP; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : The combination of global warming along with increasing energy demand necessitates the importance of improving processes pertaining to the production and consumption of energy in combined heat and power plants. This thesis brings to light transient factors currently burdening process performance for circulating fluidized bed boilers (CFBs) combusting refuse derived fuels (RDFs) and district heating networks (DHN).
