2. 1. On the Analysis and Fault-Diagnosis Tools for Small-Scale Heat and Power Plants

   Author : Jaime Arriagada; Kraftverksteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik; genetic algorithms; neural networks; fault diagnosis; maintenance; availability; reliability; energy analysis; combined heat and power; Methods and tools; small scale;

   Abstract : The deregulation of the electricity market drives utilities and independent power producers to operate heat and power plants as profit centers. In order to keep the economic margins on the credit side, the preferred measures have been to improve the electrical efficiency through changes in the hardware and boost the overall efficiency through e.g. READ MORE

4. 2. Small-Scale Decentralized Energy Systems : optimization and performance analysis
