Measurement and verification (M&V) function has been adopted in many energy efficiency (EE) programmes to quantify energy savings, identify new energy efficiency opportunities, improve EE programme design, and reduce EE programme performance risks. Budgetary constraints in EE programmes necessitate careful planning to minimise M&V cost whilst maintaining M&V accuracy. For this purpose,...
A coal washing plant is studied for the purpose of reducing energy consumption while ensuring coal quality. The pumping system that supplies dense medium to the dense medium cyclone separation process, one of the biggest energy consumers in the coal washing plant, is studied in particular. The medium flow rate and density are optimized to reduce energy consumption because they are the key factors...
Traditional methods for gathering appliance specific data require the installation of individual meters on each appliance of interest. This approach to collect data is not only expensive, but also hard to install. A new non-intrusive load monitoring system (NIALMS) has been developed in this paper which is able to disaggregate the total active power to obtain appliance specific data. The underlying...
There are two ways in literature to formulate the optimal power dispatch problem of generators with ramp rate constraints. One way is the optimal control dynamic dispatch (OCDD) approach based on control theory, the other way is the dynamic economic dispatch (DED) based on optimization theory, and the two formulations are usually believed to be the same. In this paper we show the difference between...
