Experimentally validated heat exchanger refrigerant charge model and optimization of refrigerant charge for a heat pump
(2023-05)
Refrigerant charge affects the efficiency, capacity, and reliability of a heat pump, and incorrect charge can lead to increased energy consumption and decreased performance as well as potential damage to the system. ...
Optimization of Integrated Renewable Energy System - Micro Grid (IRES-MG)
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-12-01)
Ever growing demands of increasing world population has challenged the scientific and technical communities to supply quality energy in a sustainable manner. Dependence on fossil fuels has resulted in the depletion of the ...
Leapfrogging with improved initialization and its applications: Demonstration of leapfrogging on horizon predictive control of a heat exchanger
(2014-07)
Leapfrogging (LF) is a recently developed optimization technique that initially places players in random spots in the feasible decision variable space [1]. The approach to reach the global optimum is by "Leaping" the player ...
Long-term loblolly pine aboveground growth, canopy dynamics, and economic implications from throughfall exclusion, fertilization, and thinning in southeastern Oklahoma, USA
(2020-12)
Loblolly pine (Pinus tadea L.) is the most commercially important timber species in the southern USA. Climate change induced drought, due to longer periods without rainfall, will alter forest growth in the region. Loblolly ...
Approach to Modeling and Optimization of Integrated Renewable Energy System (Ires)
