In order to satisfy the excessive demand during the heating days, the excessive supply during the nonheating days should be stored and used then. Underground gas storage is the process accomplishing this task. A detailed study of the reservoir and model construction will enable correct forecasts and thus the successful operation of the underground storage facility. In the event that the demand exceeds the field's top production capacity optimization has to be made in order to maximize the gas production. Genetic algorithm is used as the optimization tool in this study. A population is initially randomly generated and manipulated by processes analog to natural operators in the effort to find the optimum. Each population consists of individuals which each represent a different set of well production rates for the gas storage field. In this study, a real gas reservoir in Turkey having the potential for being an underground gels storage unit is evaluated. A preutilization design procedure is applied to determine the field's working renditions. interactive software (GASOPT) is developed which utilizes the three-dimensional gas reservoir simulator as the generic algorithms evaluation function. A probable demand curve is put forward. Forecast and optimization is made with GASOPT.

A multi-item newsvendor problem with preseason production and capacitated reactive production Chung, Chia-Shin; Flynn, James; Kirca, Oemer (Elsevier BV, 2008-08-01) Given items with short life cycles or seasonal demands, one can potentially improve profits by producing during the selling season, especially when its production capacity is substantial. We develop a two-stage, multi-item model incorporating reactive production that employs a firm's internal capacity. Production occurs in an uncapacitated preseason stage and a capacitated reactive stage. Demands occur in the reactive stage. Reactive capacities are pre-allocated to each item in the preseason stage and canno...
Usage of spouted bed and microwave assisted spouted bed dryers in bulgur production Kahyaoğlu, Leyla Nesrin; Şahin, Serpil; Department of Food Engineering (2009) The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of spouted bed and microwave assisted spouted bed drying on drying rates and quality parameters of bulgur. The drying experiments were performed at three air temperatures (50, 70, 90oC) and at two microwave powers (288 W, 624 W). Quality parameters were selected as bulk density, apparent density, apparent porosity, internal porosity, microstructure analysis, and color for dried cooked wheat; yield and water absorption capacity for bulgur. The dr...
An investigation into the age-based thermal energy balance of occupied classrooms in primary schools Taner, Özün; Düzgüneş, Arda; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2008) The effect of indoor heat gain from occupants as a bio-thermal source was hypothetically assessed in terms of its contribution to overall heating requirements during such occupancy and hence to potential energy savings. The spaces considered were classrooms in a sample of 6 public co-educational primary schools located within the city limits of Ankara built after 1998, the date when compulsory primary education was integrated to encompass grades 1 through 8 for ages 6 to 14, respectively. Being so, this all...
Gas permeation properties of poly(arylene ether ketone) and its mixed matrix membranes with polypyrrole Mergen, Görkem; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yılmaz, Levent; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2003) For the last two decades, the possibility of using synthetic membranes for industrial gas separations has attracted considerable interest since membrane separation technologies have the advantages of energy efficiency, simplicity and low cost. However, for wider commercial utilization there is still a need to develop membranes with higher permeant fluxes and higher transport selectivities. Conductive polymers, due to their high gas transport selectivities, give rise to a new class of polymeric materials for...
Investigation of parameters affecting the drying rate of sanitary wares Güngör, Ergin; Güngör, Ergin; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2005) The influence of drying parameters namely residence time before drying, drying temperature, drying time, relative humidity, and slip recipe on the drying rate of slip cast sanitary wares, predominantly lavatories and toilet closets, was studied. The drying temperatures were changed from 80 oC to 110 oC with an increment of 10 oC. The drying time was changed from 10 to 7 h with a decrease of 1 hour. Relative humidity of the environment was changed from 60 to 75 %. The percent weight loss, percent residual mo...
