    Optimal Sensor Location for State Estimation and Monitoring of Gas Transmission Networks

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Khaladj, Nader (Author) ; Bozorgmehry Boozarjomehry, Ramin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Monitoring of natural gas transmission networks, is one of the necessities for efficient, safe, and economical operation of energy supply networks. In order to efficiently control and monitor the operation of gas transmission network, various states of the network (like temperature, pressure, and flow) should be available. Among these states, some can be easily measured, and the rest should be estimated based on these measurements throughout the network. In this project, an algorithm to obtain near optimal locations of various measuring devices has been proposed. Furthermore, a method for estimation of the states of transmission network based on these measurements and Machine Learning has... 

    Optimization of Dynamic Performance of Gas Transmission Networks

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Ahmadian Behrooz, Hesam (Author) ; Bozorgmehry, Ramin (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In this work, a non-isothermal model of natural gas in pipelines including mass, momentum and energy balance equations are used as model equations for modeling and state estimation in gas pipeline systems. An algorithm is proposed to handle the discontinuities that appear in the dynamic model of a GTN. The states of GTN are estimated using the continuous/discrete form of the extended Kalman filter for two benchmarks and some heuristic rules for sensor placement in a GTN are concluded. Also, a framework for distributed and decentralized state estimation in high-pressure and long-distance gas transmission networks (GTNs) is proposed. Some heuristic rules are suggested for system decomposition...

    Abstract
    In this paper, a framework for distributed and decentralized state estimation in high-pressure and long-distance gas transmission networks (GTNs) is proposed. The non-isothermal model of the plant including mass, momentum and energy balance equations are used to simulate the dynamic behavior. Due to several disadvantages of implementing a centralized Kalman filter for large-scale systems, the continuous/discrete form of extended Kalman filter for distributed and decentralized estimation (DDE) has been extended for these systems. Accordingly, the global model is decomposed into several subsystems, called local models. Some heuristic rules are suggested for system decomposition in gas pipeline...
