Thermodynamic properties of the system toluene — 1, 1, 1-trichloroethane

Data on molar excess enthalpy on mixing at 298.15 K and 308.15 K, vapor-liquid equilibrium, latent heats of vaporization at 91.444 kPa and vapor pressures for the system toluene – 1, 1, 1-trichloroethane are presented. A simple adiabatic calorimeter designed for molar excess enthalpy measurements is described, tested and used. On présente, dans le cas du système toluène – 1, 1, 1-trichloréthane, des résultats relatifs aux grandeurs suivantes: a) enthalpie molaire d'excès à 298.15 K et 308.15 K; b) équilibre liquid-vapeur; c) chaleurs latentes de vaporisation à une pression absolue de 91.444 kP; d) pressions de vapeur. On décrit un calorimètre adiabatique simple, conçu pour mesurer l'enthalpie molaire d'excès, dont on a fait l'essai.

Real-time multipurpose reservoir operation: a case study / Exploitation en temps reacuteel d'un reservoir agrave buts multiples: eacutetude d'un cas

A real-time operational methodology has been developed for multipurpose reservoir operation for irrigation and hydropower generation with application to the Bhadra reservoir system in the state of Karnataka, India. The methodology consists of three phases of computer modelling. In the first phase, the optimal release policy for a given initial storage and inflow is determined using a stochastic dynamic programming (SDP) model. Streamflow forecasting using an adaptive AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model constitutes the second phase. A real-time simulation model is developed in the third phase using the forecast inflows of phase 2 and the operating policy of phase 1. A comparison of the optimal monthly real-time operation with the historical operation demonstrates the relevance, applicability and the relative advantage of the proposed methodology.
