The objective of this study is to find the optimal operational planning of the hybrid cooling system, which is combined by ice storage system and the absorption chiller. The optimization technique used in this study is dynamic programming. The objective function is summed cost during a day including charge and discharge periods of ice storage system and operation time of absorption chiller. Assuming that initially ice storage tank is stored fully and the cooling load is perfectly predicted for the operational planning. This method provides the most efficient and economic combination of equipment operational planning for cooling with respect to energy consumption cost.

This paper presents a optimal path search of mobile robot using energy efficiency. Proposed method has two goals that determining the velocity of mobile robot and finding the optimal path. We model the relationship of motors' speed and power consumption with quadratic polynomials. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, we performed simulations on the energy consumption of different paths.

The major goal of building energy management is to minimize the energy consumption while maintaining the comfortable environment condition. Nowadays building energy management to save HVAC energy and so on is the most critical issue for existing building service branch with high efficiency equipments and their optimal operation. The effects on the building energy savings of the building equipment retrofit and the improvement of its operation method, especially in the field of HVAC system, were analyzed in this study for domestic small and/or medium sized buildings. Over 8.8% of energy saving was achieved compared withe total energy consumption in commercial building. These results could be used for reasonable maintenance and efficient management of the various building service equipments and related systems.

Advanced glazing systems with excellent heat transmission values (Ug-Value) have been developed to reduce the energy consumption and the greenhouse gas emission. This study proposes a triple glazing system consisting of gaps with a vacuum and a carbon dioxide gas layer which is one of greenhouse gases. As a fundamental stage, this study is focused on calculating the optimal glazing thickness and the Ug-Value via a computer simulation, Therm & Window package. As the results, it was presented that the optimal thickness of the proposed triple glazing system is 22.2 mm, and the Ug-Value is 0.273 W/㎡·K. If this glazing system is to be applied to buildings, it could not only reduce building energy consumption but could also contribute to the treatment of carbon dioxide gas which is one of greenhouse gases.

In the automatic operation of an urban rail vehicle, a conventional PID control algorithm is applied to run the vehicle between stations within time limit and jerk limit. But the energy consumption in the automatic operation is much higher than in the manual operation. In this study, the optimal control algorithm for automatic operation is proposed to minimize energy consumption, which satisfies automatic operation for the urban rail vehicle, compared with the conventional PID control algorithm.

This paper studies evaluation of illiquid assets by using a consumption and investment model. In particular, the paper defines the marginal values of illiquid assets and shows how optimal consumption and investment policies are related to the marginal values. The general results are illustrated by two concrete examples.

This paper is a study of optimal train driving strategy to minimize the energy consumption. Optimal driving strategy can be analyzed as an optimal problem which have constraints by using Largrangian Function and Kuhn-Tucker condition. We simulate the section between Konkuk University Station and Seongsu Station which is on outer circle line of the Seoul Metro line No.2 by using MATLAB and consider the straight level track and the speed limit.

The optimal byproduct gas supply system was developed for the optimal management of the byproduct gases in the iron and steel making process based on EXCEL environment. It supplies optimal byproduct gas distribution result as well as analysis including expected electricity generation, holder level change, amount of oil consumption, energy distribution to each boiler, and efficiency of energy resource. To reflect the changing environment of the plant such as maintenance, the system was developed to easily change the optimization model for changing configuration of the system. To verify the performance of the system , case studies for various situation was performed with the developed system, a...

The optimal portfolio selection problem under inflation risk and subsistence constraints is considered. There are index bonds to invest in financial market and it helps to hedge the inflation risk. By applying the martingale method, the optimal consumption rate and the optimal portfolios are obtained explicitly. Furthermore, the quantitative effect of inflation risk and subsistence constraints on the optimal polices are also described.
