Design and Analysis of Power Systems Conference: AIChE Annual MeetingYear: 2015Proceeding: 2015 AIChE Annual MeetingGroup: Computing and Systems Technology Division Type: Oral Room: Salon D Location: Salt Lake Marriott Downtown at City Creek Time: Wednesday, November 11, 2015 - 8:30am-11:00am Chair(s):Adams, T. A. II, McMaster University Co-chair(s):Hasan, F., Texas A&M University Electricity generation has grown rapidly in the past decade across the world. This session focuses on design and analysis of power systems. Areas of interest include using computational approaches and models, ranging from dispatch models to capacity expansion models, to help design and analyze power systems in a robust manner. Case studies on design/analysis of individual power generation and storage technologies are also welcome.
