In this paper we propose an evolutionary imperfect information game approach to analyzing bidding strategies in electricity markets with price-elastic demand. In previous research, opponent generation companies’ (GENCOs’) bidding strategies were assumed to be fixed or subject to a fixed...

The composition and manufacturing process of a three-layer anticorrosive cool coating for oil storage tanks are introduced. The optical, indoor thermal and physicochemical properties were systematically investigated. In addition, the outdoor cooling effect and the reduction of evaporation losses...

Benchmarking has been recognized to be an effective analysis methodology and management tool that helps to improve efficiency and performance in many areas for different objectives. Industrial energy benchmarking is a process of evaluating energy performance of an individual industrial plant or...

Based on the geological data of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau permafrost, such as the permafrost ground temperature, the thermal gradient within and below the frozen layer, we numerically investigate the gas production potential from hydrates at the DK-3 drilling site of the Qilian Mountain...

The combination forms of the hydrate dissociation methods in different well systems are divided into 6 main patterns. Dissociation processes of methane hydrate in porous media using the inverted five-spot water flooding method (Pattern 4) are investigated by the experimental observation and...
