Summary: Geomagnetic disturbances have significant impacts on the normal operation of power systems, oil and gas pipelines, and railway systems. This study provides a systematic calculation approach for geomagnetically induced current (GIC) in ground-based systems and proposes a versatile modeling method for GIC. Different Earth models are used to determine the geoelectric field, and the GIC is calculated based on a combination of geophysical and engineering steps. The systems are categorized into lumped-parameter and distributed-parameter systems based on their characteristics, and specific cases are considered to demonstrate the effectiveness of the model.

Summary: Two hydraulic transient models (DPM and LPM) and efficient numerical algorithms were established and applied to a large-scale DH network for simulating and analyzing network hydraulic transients caused by valve and pump operations. The DPM can capture high-frequency hydraulic transients subtly, while the LPM can only describe average hydraulic fluctuations. The computation time of LPM is shorter due to neglecting pressure waves and fluid compressibility.

Summary: The present study aimed to evaluate the use of microalga Scenedesmus almeriensis for treating untreated urban wastewater. Two 12 m(3) raceway reactors, one supplemented with wastewater and the other with chemical fertilizer, were operated outdoors in a semi-continuous mode for eight months. The results showed that S. almeriensis could be produced in wastewater without affecting the photosynthetic apparatus, with an average productivity of 13 g center dot m(-2)center dot day(-1) in both systems. Moreover, the nutrient content of the wastewater, including nitrogen, phosphorous, and chemical oxygen demand, was reduced to meet European limitations, with average removal rates of 2.2, 0.2, and 3.0 g center dot m(-2)center dot day(-1) respectively. The raceway reactors demonstrated high potential for microalgal production and efficient biotreatment, proving to be robust and reliable. Additionally, an accurate model was developed to evaluate the effect of environmental conditions on biomass productivity in the clean system (R-2 = 0.9, p = 0.0002).

Summary: This work proposes a hierarchical framework for controlling a solar thermal facility to provide operating conditions for an absorption chiller machine. A case study of the CIESOL thermal plant is conducted with verified subsystems and valves in a simulation environment. Three different models are used for absorption chiller modeling, and a hybrid nonlinear predictive controller is formulated for hierarchical control. A lower layer with PI controllers is designed to handle valve nonlinear dynamics and disturbance rejection. Results show that the hierarchical structure extends the operating time of the solar-powered absorption chiller by approximately 115 minutes compared to conventional operation, with reduced fossil fuel usage.

Summary: This paper addresses the issue of control signal saturation caused by feedforward control from measurable load disturbances. An efficient feedforward compensator can generate significant peaks in the control signal during fast changes in the load disturbance, potentially causing the signal to reach saturation. The authors propose reducing the gain of the feedforward compensator during saturation periods to overcome this problem, presenting a method to calculate this gain reduction. Simulation examples demonstrate the significant performance improvement achieved by implementing this idea in cases of saturation problems. The proposed algorithm is also tested on a lab-scale temperature control system to demonstrate its practical capabilities.

Summary: This study introduces an adaptive optimal model-free controller for solar collector fields (SCFs) that overcomes the challenges of using high-complex models. The proposed controller is based on the Reinforcement Q-Learning algorithm and achieves optimal performance using only plant measurements. It outperforms model-based controllers by handling nonlinearities, time-varying model parameters, and computational costs associated with nonlinear models. Simulations using actual data from a thermal plant demonstrate the effectiveness of the model-free controller, as the Q-Learning algorithm converges to the optimal gains of the Linear Quadratic Tracking (LQT) controller.

Summary: Developing highly efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts is crucial for zinc-air flow batteries. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic polymers (COPs) have emerged as promising alternatives due to their designable and controllable atomic-level structures. However, their catalytic performances are limited by conductivity and catalytic activity. In this study, nanosheet FeNi-MOF and iron phthalocyanine rich COP hybrid materials are assembled through the pi-pi stacking effect to create highly efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts. The resulting catalyst exhibits superior catalytic performance and stability, making it a promising candidate for zinc-air flow batteries.

The modified e-CPA model demonstrated better performance and the hybridization with electrical conductivity models resulted in two predictive models for estimating the electrical conduction of dilute and concentrated electrolyte solutions. These predictive models showed relative average percentage deviations (AARD) of 11.15% and 13.87% over wide ranges of temperature and electrolyte concentration.
