An accurate and detailed assessment of the impacts of micro generation units in radial low voltage distribution networks asks for adequate modeling of both demand and micro generation uncertainty. In this paper we describe the methodological steps followed to characterize the demand patterns and micro generation availability taking into consideration the typical uncertainties associated with both...
This paper describes a hybrid approach in which generation cost and demand uncertainties are represented by fuzzy numbers and the life cycle of system components is modeled by probabilistic models. The Monte Carlo simulation model is used to sample system states according to the failure rates of the system components and a Fuzzy DC OPF model is used to analyse each sampled state. This Fuzzy DC OPF...
Simulation, by resorting to suitable models, is often used by electric utilities in studies related with load forecasting, system reliability, power flow and demand-side management activities, among others. Nowadays, in restructured electricity market scenarios, activities involving buying and selling energy can also be studied through simulation. Different goals for those studies require different...
The Tile Calorimeter, which constitutes the central section of the ATLAS hadronic calorimeter, is a non-compensating sampling device made of iron and scintillating tiles. The construction phase of the calorimeter is nearly complete, and most of the effort now is directed toward the final assembly and commissioning in the underground experimental hall. The layout of the calorimeter and the tasks carried...
