Prediction Approach for Hourly Output of the Energy Station in the District Energy System Based on the Attenuation and Delay of the Pipeline Network

摘要

This paper establishes a heat-transfer model for pipeline networks, taking into account the attenuation and delay for district energy systems. The model can transform the hourly load of each building into the hourly output of the energy station to level the load. Furthermore, the hourly output of the energy station was calculated based on three scenarios that represent the locations of energy stations. The results indicate that there was a great difference between the superposition value of all the users and the output of the energy station.
