Beschreibung:
Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) methods have been applied widely to optimal design of energy supply systems. A hierarchical MILP method has been proposed to solve such optimal design problems efficiently. In addition, some strategies have been proposed to enhance the computation efficiency furthermore. As one of the strategies, a method of reducing model by time aggregation has been proposed to search design candidates efficiently in the relaxed optimal design problem at the upper level. In this paper, the hierarchical MILP method with the strategies has been extendedly applied to the optimal design of energy supply systems with storage units. Especially, the method of re- ducing model is extended by aggregating representative days and sampling times differently in consideration of the characteristics of storage units. A case study is conducted on the optimal design of a gas turbine cogeneration system with a thermal storage unit for district energy supply. Through the study, it turns out the hierarchical MILP method is effective to derive the optimal solution as compared with a conventional method. It also turns out that the model reduction with the special time aggregation is effective to shorten the computation time as compared with that without time aggregation in case that the number of candidates for equipment capacities is relatively small.
