ASSIGNMENT MODEL FOR CHARGING OF THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE BY ELECTRIC CHILLERS USING ZERO-ONE PROGRAMMING APPROACH
Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system is commonly installed at District Cooling plant for storing of chilled water (CHW). The stored CHW is used to support requirement of chilled water during day time. Charging of the TES tank by the electrical chillers (EC) is done during off-peak hours. For the case...
