This paper presents an artificial bee colony (ABC) based algorithm to optimally solve the problem of allocation and the problem of design and schedule of multiple hybrid photovoltaic (PV -diesel distributed generation in distribution systems.
In another move to ease the shortages the Obama administration directed the Defense Logistics Agency to purchase up to 380,000 barrels of unleaded gasoline and 317,000 barrels of diesel for distribution to storm-stricken areas.
The five projects illustrate different options for the electrical generation (single, hybrid or combination of technologies), storage (battery or diesel backup) and distribution (microgrid or individual systems), as well as different methods for data gathering and systems design.
Neiro et al. (2014) focused on the scheduling of an in-line diesel blending and distribution subsystem of an oil refinery, considering crude oil unloading, mixing, and inventory control, production unit scheduling, and finished product blending and shipping.
This paper presents quantitative data on the CH2O distribution around diesel and n-heptane fuel sprays in the combustion chamber of a commercial heavy-duty diesel engine.
Three-dimensional simulations of diesel particulate matter (DPM) distribution inside a single straight entry for the Load-Haul-Dump loader (LHD -truck LHD -truckd truck hauloadingerandons were conductrucky using ANSYS FLUENT computational fluid dynamics software.
While similar particles are emitted from both gasoline and diesel powered engines, the distribution and surface properties of the particles are different, which suggests potential differences in the health effects associated with these exposures [ 5].
But their economies of scale come from mass distribution, and with diesel fuel costing more than $4 per gallon in many locations, it's no longer efficient to transport food 1,500 miles from where it's grown.
In the spring of 2010, as U.S. commanders tried to apply General David Petraeus's counterinsurgency doctrine to Kandahar, the military proposed a quick fix to the city's electrical supply: hooking up the city's distribution network to diesel generators and paying for the fuel.
