Contents • Introduction • Network models for supply chains • Network models for gas networks • Numerical results and optimization • Outlook
Introduction Supply Chain: Gas Pipeline Networks:
Networks • Tasks: • Determine dynamics on the arcs • Define „correct“ coupling conditions
Supply Chain Modelling • See Armbruster, Degond, Ringhofer et al. Basic equations: : density of parts : maximum processing capacity L/T: processing velocity
Model • Idea: • Each processor is described by one arc • Use above equations to describe dynamics of the processor. • Add equation for the queues in front of the processor • Advantage: • Standard treatment of equations (constant maximal processing rate) • Straightforward definitions for complicated networks, junctions Start with simple structure:consecutive processors
Theorem: Proof: Explicit solutions of Riemann problems, Front Tracking, Bounds for the number of interactions of discontinuities, see Holden, Piccoli et al. Remark 1: Possible increase of total variation due to influence of queues Remark 2: Not a weak solution across the junction in the usual network sense (queues)
Comparison with ADR: N-curve from ADR is obtained from
Junctions Dispersing Junction:
Junctions Merging Junction:
Numerical Results (Example 1, see ADR) Inflow: Density: Queues 1,2,3:
Results (Optimization of processing velocity of processor 5):
Modelling of Gas Networks Isothermal Euler equations with friction or without friction
Gas Networks Simplifying assumptions: Discuss Riemann problems at the vertices
Consecutive pipelines Theorem:
Remark (Demand and Supply functions): 1-waves and 2-waves for given left state Demand function Supply function
General networks Remark: Similar to the above, solutions can be constructed, see example 1. However: Corresponding maximization problem can have no solution.
Discussion • Remark: The solution is not a weak solution in the usual network sense. The second moment is not conserved • Remark: In contrast to traffic networks the distribution of flow for a dispersing junction can not be chosen, but is implicitly given by the equality of pressure. • Remark: For real world applications the pressure at the vertex is reduced by so called minor losses. This is modelled by a pressure drop factor depending on geometry, flow and density at the intersection.
Example 1: Coupling conditions: Remark: Existence, uniqueness?
Example 1 (Construction of a solution fulfilling the constraints):
Numerical Results (Example 2) Pressure increase on the two vertical pipes 2 and 4
Outlook • Simplified problems: • ODE on networks • Mixed Integer Problems (MIP) derived from PDE, see traffic networks • Optimization problems: • Supply Chains: Improve optimization procedures (Adjoint calculus etc.) • Gas networks:pressure distribution corrected by compressors discrete optimization,
