... time cooking period were measured in KIT-IMP and KIT-TRD. A simulation model was established to evaluate most potential factor to control the level of pollutants inside the kitchen. Findings Conventional processes of energy consumption in the households, along with the outdoor concentration...

... of energy produced by the BIPV façade and its consumption in adjacent office room. Calculations of energy generated by PV panels were made using simulation programme ESP-r. Advanced model, used in analyses, take into account dependence of the main electrical parameters of photovoltaic cell from temperature...

... this network, often many developments can be made. The available financial resources being limited, the most effective developments must be chosen. This optimization problem, suggested in Finke and Sonnenschein, can be treated by heuristics and simulation approaches, but the method is heavy and the obtained...

It is expected that simulation will provide the longitudinal...

...H. Sekhar; R. Mahanti Purpose The aim of the research is to use an integrated approach – simulation and Six Sigma to improve the ambient air quality. Design/methodology/approach Integration of simulation and Six Sigma DMAIC methodology in a foundry had been used to improve the ambient air...

... makers means to determine the required reduction of source. Originality/value The new extreme value model has mostly been applied in environmental studies for the statistical treatment of air pollution. The results of the numerical and simulated CO data indicate that the new model both is easy to use...

... this cooperation in a manner comfortable to hydrometeorological experts, a part of the CrossGrid project is aimed towards developing a PSE, whose prototype is described here. The PSE consists of a cascade of simulation models, a storage system for computed and measured data and other used datasets, a Web‐based...
