Modeling and Optimization of Steady Flow of Natural Gas and Hydrogen Mixtures in Pipeline Networks
Saif R. Kazi, Kaarthik Sundar, Shriram Srinivasan +1
We extend the canonical problems of simulation and optimization of steady-state gas flows in pipeline networks with compressors to the transport of mixtures of highly heterogeneous…
Routing Problem for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Patrolling Missions -- A Progressive Hedging Algorithm
Sudarshan Rajan, Kaarthik Sundar, Natarajan Gautam
The paper presents a two-stage stochastic program to model a routing problem involving an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in the context of patrolling missions. In particular, given…
Operation of Natural Gas Pipeline Networks With Storage Under Transient Flow Conditions
Sai Krishna Kanth Hari, Kaarthik Sundar, Shriram Srinivasan +2
We formulate a nonlinear optimal control problem for intra-day operation of a natural gas pipeline network that includes storage reservoirs. The dynamics of compressible gas flow t…
Robust Gas Pipeline Network Expansion Planning to Support Power System Reliability
Kaarthik Sundar, Sidhant Misra, Anatoly Zlotnik +1
We examine the problem of optimal transport capacity expansion planning for a gas pipeline network to service the growing demand of gas-fired power plants that are increasingly use…
Optimal Economic Operation of Liquid Petroleum Products Pipeline Systems
Elena Khlebnikova, Kaarthik Sundar, Anatoly Zlotnik +3
The majority of overland transport needs for crude petroleum and refined petroleum products are met using pipelines. Numerous studies have developed optimization methods for design…
Natural Gas Maximal Load Delivery for Multi-contingency Analysis
Byron Tasseff, Carleton Coffrin, Russell Bent +2
As the use of renewable generation has increased, electric power systems have become increasingly reliant on natural gas-fired power plants as fast ramping sources for meeting fluc…
