"Operational optimization of district heating system based on an integr" by Menglong Lu, Chao Zhang et al.
Abstract The time-varying feature of heating loads of public buildings creates a considerable space for exploring control strategies of matching the balance between the supply and demand side of district heating system (DHS). However, the strong coupling relationship between hydraulic conditions of each building has brought great difficulties for the operation regulation of DHS. Therefore, an operation strategy based on real-time indoor temperatures was proposed and a new integrated model based on dynamic hydraulic conditions combining with real-time temperatures were developed. The integrati...
