Simulation of a Transport Standby for Ensuring Safe Heat Supply Systems Operation

Abstract

Abstract The process of development a transport (parametric) standby for cities and other settlements heat supply systems in cases of increasing pipeline diameters with constant network configuration is studied. The formation of a standby can ensure uninterrupted and safe operation of heat supply systems. Safe operation is supposed to be ensured through analysis and prevention of possible emergency situations. The development of the transport standby mathematical models is based on the energy equivalence of subscriber subsystems of heat supply systems, which distinguishes the obtained mathematical models from existing analogues. To evaluate the impact of parametric optimization results on economic indicators, a computational experiment was conducted. As an object of study, the design scheme of a residential neighborhood was considered. An analysis of the computational experiment results proved the efficiency of the obtained transport standby mathematical models for running heat supply systems. It is possible to provide transport standby for systems of any sizes and configurations or for the studied fragments of these systems. For practical use, it is of interest to calculate the parametric standby of individual houses with autonomous boiler rooms.
