The non-linear characteristics of the generators, such as prohibited operating zones, ramp rate limits and non-smooth cost functions of the practical generator operation are considered. The proposed hybrid algorithm is demonstrated for three different systems and the performance is compared with the GA and PSO in terms of solution quality and computation efficiency. Comparison of results proved that the proposed algo- rithm can obtain higher quality solutions efficiently in ED problems. A comprehensive software package is developed using MATLAB.展开更多

Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) is an in-situ technique to recover the fuel or feedstock value of coal that is not economically available through conventional recovery technologies. Today, less than one sixth of the world's coal is economically accessible. Today, similarly to all other countries in the world also in Slovakia there is an interest in the revival and perfection of the UCG technology. From the viewpoint of content the research is directed toward to increasing heating capacity of syngas. From the standpoint of the methods used the research can be divided into 2 approaches: experiments in UCG laboratory and mathematical modeling, including simulation studies. Both approaches have helped to discover complicated relationships during UCG and they will be the subject of this paper. The most important factors are methods, the humidity of the coal, heat losses, temperatures in relevant zones, the composition of oxidation agents and the permeability of the coal. The calorific value of syngas was found generally to be 0.55-4.45 MJ.Nm^-3 with a maximum of 25.51 MJ.m^-3 if only air is used as the oxidation agent. Where a mixture of air and oxygen is used, calorific values in the range 0.43-6.38 MJ.m^-3 were generally obtained, with maximum 27.53 MJ·m^-3. Analysis was carried out on these big differences in order to improve UCG.展开更多

Changes in the sectors of iron, steel and non-ferrous metals and the current development of technology forces the steel mills increased productivity, reduce production costs while ensuring to obtain a product with the required properties and to improve the competitiveness of enterprises in the global market. Currently, the most popular in meeting these requirements, enjoys a method of integration which combines individual operations into one integrated whole. The use of modem, perfectly designed, fully automated design of mechanical, hydraulic and measurement allowed us to achieve an innovative line of production. This article presents the general characteristics of the steel industry and a description of the latest integrated technology currently used in foundries and rolling mills.
