reg no: ETF5176
project type: Estonian Science Foundation research grant
subject: 2.5. Power Engineering
status: completed

duration: 01.01.2002 - 31.12.2004
description: The aim of the research work is to work out the methods, algorithms and computer's programs for optimal control and operation of cogeneration power plants (CHP) in power systems. Basically is examined the optimal control of small CHP. The problem of optimal load dispatch between CHP units and the problem of optimal unit commitment at CHP are examined. The problem of optmal load dispatch between CHP in power system is examined too.

Results. Economic dispatch and unit commitment of cogeneration power plants give economy of fuel at CHP and in power systems.
