Assessing Random Power Flow for Vehicle-to-Grid Operation Based on Monte Carlo Simulation
Conference paper

This paper employs Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) to assess how randomly power flow is distributed in Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operations. V2G technology facilitates a bidirectional flow of electricity by allowing Electric Vehicles (EVs) to feed excess power back into the grid in addition to drawing power from it. The researchers used Monte Carlo simulation as a computational technique that involves generating random samples to analyze the behaviour of a system, to assess the impact of random variations in power flow on V2G operations. They considered various factors such as EV charging and discharging patterns, grid conditions, and user behaviour to create a realistic simulation environment. The main objective function in this study wants to achieve is to reduce the dependency on the grid and develop a stochastic framework for the efficient management of microgrids with the presence of EVs. reduce cost. As a result, the analysis of the MCS shows the performance of the bidirectional operation, and the output power of the integrated sources is obtained.

Applying Precedence Rules in Executing Work for the Purpose of Balancing Assembly Lines Using Electronic Tables
مقال في مجلة علمية

The issue of balancing assembly lines is one of the important activities in production and operations management because of its importance in raising the efficiency and effectiveness of assembly lines, reducing wasted time, and reducing bottlenecks that hinder the flow of production. Among the problems facing production operations is the decrease in line efficiency in addition to the presence of wasted time and the occurrence of accidents. Production bottleneck between workstations, so the goal of this paper was to balance the assembly line by following different precedence rules. A system was designed to re-arrange and balance the assembly line using the Excel program, with the aim of obtaining the best arrangement according to five ways of arranging tasks. The results showed that the priority rule for the weighted site weighing method had the highest efficiency of 88% and the lowest wasted time of 22 minutes.

Evaluation the effect of the Reservoir Rock Permeability in the Gas Injection and Optimizing Oil Recovery Factor by Eclipse Software
Journal Article

This paper examines on the effect of the reservoir rock permeability on gas injection by using reservoir simulation. This task will be performed by using reservoir simulation software (Eclipse). This injection interacts with CO2 to create conditions favorable for oil recovery. The main target of this project is to investigate the effect of the reservoir rock permeability on gas injection and the optimum injection rate to get the optimum recovery. The problems statement of this study is: As the oil and gas in a formation is produced, the hydrocarbons remaining in the reservoir may become trapped because the pressure in the formation has lessened, making production either slow dramatically or stop altogether. Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Burning fossil fuels generates greenhouse gas emissions that act like a blanket wrapped around the Earth, trapping the sun’s heat and raising temperatures. Examples of greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change include carbon dioxide and methane. The result of effect of the reservoir rock permeability on gas injection by using reservoir simulation shows that with the increase in the permeability of reservoir rock, the rate of gas production increases. The greater the permeability of rocks, the rate of water production increases, which is a direct method relationship between water production and permeability. We note after this evaluation that the cumulative oil, water, and gas production increases with the increase in rock permeability.

Strategic Approaches to Design Teams for Construction Quality Management and Green Building Performance
Journal Article

Buildings exert a profound influence on the environment, with the design phase recognized as the pivotal determinant of a building’s overall performance. Green building design, in particular, introduces heightened complexity, where the attributes of the design team play a pivotal role in shaping performance outcomes. Consequently, the characteristics of the design team emerge as crucial factors in the enhancement of both green building design performance and client attributes. This study aims to empirically examine a model formulated to gauge the extent to which Effective Design Team Attributes contribute to the enhancement of performance in designing green buildings and influencing client attributes. To achieve this objective, a comprehensive questionnaire survey was administered to professionals within the architecture and engineering domains actively engaged in the design and consulting sectors of the building industry. The collected data underwent meticulous scrutiny for authenticity and dependability using the WINSTEPS 5.2.5 software before undergoing subsequent analysis. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS version 19, with Principal Components Analysis (PCA) and the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach implemented through Amos version 18 to derive the most robust model. The findings underscore the pivotal role of an adeptly managed design team in significantly improving both the performance of green building designs and the qualities of clients.

Performance Analysis of Gas Turbine Power Plant; Effect of Operating Parameters
Journal Article

This study aims to evaluate the performance of a simple cycle gas turbine power plant by analysing the effect of different operating parameters. These operating parameters include compressor pressure ratio and compressor & turbine isentropic efficiencies. The study quantitatively assesses the exergetic efficiency and the exergy destruction of each unit in the cycle, as well as the power used or produced by the cycle. Any change in these parameters can significantly impact the power plant's overall performance through a specific unit in the cycle. For instance, increasing the compressor pressure ratio can reduce the temperature difference across the combustor, lessening the exergy destruction and improving the cycle’s overall performance. However, any decline in the compressor or the turbine isentropic efficiency results in an increase in the exergy destruction of the affected unit and can result in a decrease in the overall cycle performance. This is due to either an increase in power required by the compressor or a decrease in power produced by the turbine. The analysis suggests that the turbine isentropic efficiency has a greater impact on the net power generated than the compressor isentropic efficiency. Additionally, the turbine inlet temperature is a dependent variable as operating at different compressor pressure ratios and compressor isentropic efficiencies lead to varying turbine inlet temperatures. Therefore, increasing the turbine inlet temperature does not always lead to improved performance.

IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE ZAWIA POWER PLANT
Conference paper

ABSTRACT

This article presents another method to improve the performance

and efficiency of a gas-fired power plant in Al-Zawia, Libya. In

order to improve power plant efficiency and increase power, the

principle of a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), which is

mainly based on the waste heat energy of exhaust gases generated

by a simple gas turbine unit, is a method that can be used for

improvement. The present system was simulated using Aspen

HYSYS software. For validation purposes, the simulation results

were compared with the actual operating data, net power and

thermal efficiency of the cycle under the same conditions. These

results show a high level of agreement between theoretical and

practical data. This agreement enables and provides good

implementation to use this software to simulate an entire combined

cycle. In addition, operating parameters that influence power plant

performance were examined. The results show that the combined

cycle improved the thermal efficiency and net power output by

49.8% and 50%, respectively, under the same operating conditions.

The results also showed that compressor pressure ratio and inlet air

temperature have significant effects on thermal efficiency and net

power produced in both simple and combined power plants

Innovative SQL Query Generator Using an Arabic Language Description
Conference paper

This paper presents the development of an advanced system designed to efficiently process Arabic queries in today’s data-driven landscape. By using the T5 sequence-to-sequence model developed by Google and fine-tuning it specifically for transforming textual and verbal input into SQL queries, the system becomes adept at accurately comprehending and interpreting Arabic queries.

The resulting system serves as a user-friendly tool that automates the generation of SQL queries. Users can input their queries in written or recorded Arabic utterances, eliminating the need for manual translation and query construction.

This involved fine-tuning T5 models on a SQL dataset, splitting the dataset, tokenizing it, and setting training parameters. The implementation phase included loading the fine-tuned model, which incorporated PICARD to generate valid queries effectively. This paper also explores the impact of Arabic translation on the performance and accuracy of the model.

The optimal testing on test set accuracy achieved was 63.11%, the real-world testing accuracy: T5-base without PICARD scored 56.96% and 51.36% on English and Arabic questions, respectively, while T5-large with PIARCD scored 77.74% and 70.34% on English and Arabic questions.
