Comparison of Optimization Schemes for the Flue Gas Purification System of a Garbage Incineration Power Plant

A garbage incineration power plant is proposed to be built somewhere. Due to local environmental capacity and local policy,the demand on the flue gas emission indicators of the project is high,but the conventional purification process of flue gas produced during waste incineration（ SNCR denitrification ＋dry/semi-dry deacidification ＋ adsorption of dioxins and heavy metals by activated carbon ＋ bag dusting） has been unable to meet this requirement,and the newly added wet deacidification and SCR denitrification processes can meet this requirement. The flue gas purification process was optimized,and two feasible schemes were compared to choose the better one.

Higher Order Iteration Schemes for Unconstrained Optimization

Using a predictor-corrector tactic, this paper derives new iteration schemes for unconstrained optimization. It yields a point (predictor) by some line search from the current point;then with the two points it constructs a quadratic interpolation curve to approximate some ODE trajectory;it finally determines a new point (corrector) by searching along the quadratic curve. In particular, this paper gives a global convergence analysis for schemes associated with the quasi-Newton updates. In our computational experiments, the new schemes using DFP and BFGS updates outperformed their conventional counterparts on a set of standard test problems.

Optimization of stratification scheme for a fishery-independent survey with multiple objectives

Fishery-independent surveys are often used for collecting high quality biological and ecological data to support fisheries management. A careful optimization of fishery-independent survey design is necessary to improve the precision of survey estimates with cost-effective sampling efforts. We developed a simulation approach to evaluate and optimize the stratification scheme for a fishery-independent survey with multiple goals including estimation of abundance indices of individual species and species diversity indices. We compared the performances of the sampling designs with different stratification schemes for different goals over different months. Gains in precision of survey estimates from the stratification schemes were acquired compared to simple random sampling design for most indices. The stratification scheme with five strata performed the best. This study showed that the loss of precision of survey estimates due to the reduction of sampling efforts could be compensated by improved stratification schemes, which would reduce the cost and negative impacts of survey trawling on those species with low abundance in the fishery-independent survey. This study also suggests that optimization of a survey design differed with different survey objectives. A post-survey analysis can improve the stratification scheme of fishery-independent survey designs.

New optimized flux difference schemes for improving high-order weighted compact nonlinear scheme with applications

To improve the spectral characteristics of the high-order weighted compact nonlinear scheme(WCNS),optimized flux difference schemes are proposed.The disadvantages in previous optimization routines,i.e.,reducing formal orders,or extending stencil widths,are avoided in the new optimized schemes by utilizing fluxes from both cell-edges and cell-nodes.Optimizations are implemented with Fourier analysis for linear schemes and the approximate dispersion relation(ADR)for nonlinear schemes.Classical difference schemes are restored near discontinuities to suppress numerical oscillations with use of a shock sensor based on smoothness indicators.The results of several benchmark numerical tests indicate that the new optimized difference schemes outperform the classical schemes,in terms of accuracy and resolution for smooth wave and vortex,especially for long-time simulations.Using optimized schemes increases the total CPU time by less than 4%.

Novel Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Huge Value Penalty for Solving Engineering Problem

For the purpose of solving the engineering constrained discrete optimization problem, a novel discrete particle swarm optimization（DPSO） is proposed. The proposed novel DPSO is based on the idea of normal particle swarm optimization（PSO）, but deals with the variables as discrete type, the discrete optimum solution is found through updating the location of discrete variable.

Perforation optimization of layer-penetration fracturing for commingling gas production in coal measure strata

Optimization of fracturing perforation is of great importance to the commingling gas production in coal measure strata.In this paper,a 3 D lattice algorithm hydraulic fracturing simulator was employed to study the effects of perforation position and length on hydraulic fracture propagation in coal measures of the Lin-Xing block,China.Based on field data,three lithologic combinations are simulated:1)a thick section of coal seam sandwiched by sandstones;2)a thin coal seam layer overlay by gas-bearing tight sandstone;3)two coal seams separated by a thin layer of sandstone.Our simulation shows that perforation position and length in multi-layer reservoirs play a major role in hydraulic fracture propagation.Achieving maximum stimulated volume requires consideration of lithologic sequence,coal seam thickness,stress states,and rock properties.To improve the combined gas production in coal measure strata,it is possible to simultaneously stimulate multiple coal seams or adjacent gas-bearing sandstones.In these cases,perforation location and length also significantly impact fracture propagation,and therefore should be carefully designed.Our simulation results using 3 D lattice algorithm are qualitatively consistent with laboratory physical simulation.3 D lattice models can be used to effectively simulate the fracture propagation through layers in coal measure strata.The numerical results provide guidance for perforation optimization in the hydraulic fracturing of coal measure strata.
