Assessing the impact of employing machine learning-based baseline load prediction pipelines with sliding-window training scheme on offered flexibility estimation for different building categories

Italo Aldo Campodonico Avendano et al.

Summary: The study focuses on evaluating the impact of baseline load prediction pipelines performance on the accuracy of flexibility estimation provided by different types of buildings. Different machine learning algorithms, along with sliding-window and offline training schemes, are investigated and compared for hour-ahead baseline load prediction. Using smart meter measurements, optimal pipeline and training window sizes are identified for each building type. Physical simulations are conducted to simulate the consumption profiles of five buildings, both in regular operation and when offering flexibility. The results demonstrate that the identified optimal prediction pipeline (Extra Trees algorithm with a sliding window of 5 weeks) outperforms offline training (average r2 score of 0.91 vs. 0.87). Using these pipelines allows for accurate estimation of offered flexibility, ensuring fair compensation from the grid operator.

Reduced FV modelling based on CFD database and experimental validation for the thermo-fluid dynamic simulation of flue gases in horizontal fire-tubes

Alessandro Morelli et al.

Summary: This work proposes an optimized physical heat transfer correlation in smooth horizontal fire-tubes using a one-dimensional reduced Finite Volume Method. The correlation is validated over a wide range of operating conditions through experimental data and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The calibrated physical correlations provide accurate estimations of heat transfer and pressure drops with reduced computational cost.
