At present, traditional prediction methods for the temperature field are expensive and time consuming, particularly for large structures and dimensions, whereas deep learning surrogate models have limitations related to constant boundary conditions and two-dimensional input slices, lacking the three-dimensional topology and spatial correlations. Herein, a constraint-incorporated model using U-Net architecture as the backbone is proposed to predict the temperature field and effective thermal conductivity of sphere-packed porous media, considering diverse external heat fluxes. A total of 510 original samples of temperature fields are generated through lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) simulations, which are further augmented to 33,150 samples using the self-amplification method for the training. Physical prior knowledge is incorporated into the model to constrain the training direction by adding physical constraint terms as well as adaptive weights to the loss function. Input vectors with different heat fluxes and porosities are embedded into latent features for predicting different boundary conditions. Results indicate that the constraint-incorporated model has a mean relative error ranging between 1.1 % and 5.7 % compared with the LBM results in the testing set. It exhibits weak dependence on the database size and substantially reduces computational time, with a maximum speedup ratio of 7.14 × 10⁶.

A “Time Series Simulation Conditional Generative Adversarial Network” (TSS-CGAN) generates short-term electricity price scenarios. In particular, the network is capable of generating a 24-dimensional output vector that corresponds to the expected behavior of electricity markets. The model can replace typical approaches from financial mathematics like statistical factor models to model the price distribution around a given forecast. The data cover a 3-year period from 2020 to 2023. Our empirical study is conducted on the EPEX SPOT market in Europe. An electricity price scenario includes the prices of the hourly contracts of a day-ahead auction at the EPEX SPOT power exchange. The model uses multivariate time series as input factors, consisting of point forecasts of electricity prices and fundamental data on generation and load profiles. The architecture of a TSS-CGAN is based on the idea of Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks combined with 1D Convolutional Neural Networks and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory. The model is evaluated using qualitative and quantitative criteria. For the evaluation, 10,000 simulations of a test period are carried out. Qualitative criteria are whether the model follows certain electricity market-specific regularities and depicts them adequately. The quantitative analysis includes common error metric, compared to benchmark models, like DeepAR, Prophet and Temporal Fusion Transformer, the examination of the quantile ranges, the error distribution and a sensitivity analysis. The results show that the TSS-CGAN outperforms benchmark models such as DeepAR by reducing the continuous ranked probability score by 50% and considers market-specific circumstances such as the production of fluctuating energies and reacts correctly to changes in the corresponding variables.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34138,"journal":{"name":"Energy and AI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666546824000880/pdfft?md5=68acafc3eee4796c88abd4e8470f8783&pid=1-s2.0-S2666546824000880-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142242214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Low flammability limit (LFL) is a key property of jet fuel which should be sufficiently flammable to burn in combustor of aeroengine and meanwhile should be non-flammable for safety storage in fuel tank of aircraft. LFL of fuel could be influenced by integrating effects including molecule structure, intramolecular chemical bond energy and binding energy of molecule to molecule. Three types of theoretical models, based on different individual view including LFL of every pure hydrocarbon, stoichiometric concentration, and combustion enthalpy, present unsatisfactory simulation results, which can be deduced without integrating all potential influence factors together. The artificial neural network (ANN) approaches have been involved to bridge the relationship of the complex compositions in jet fuels with LFL. For providing adequate and available composition input, the boundary of fuel compositions has been extracted based on constrains of boiling point, flash point and freeze point coupling with statistic petroleum-based jet fuels. By clustering analysis, 43 critical classes of compositions, extracted as surrogate hydrocarbons based on with similar LFL within 1 % deviation, have been deployed as input matrix. ANN-LFL model, trained by only drop-in fuel with feature of Sigmoid function as an activation function, can distinguish drop-in fuel with non-drop-in fuel. ANN LFL model can predict LFL of drop-in fuel with 0.988 accuracy. The predict output value of non-drop-in fuel could present obvious deviation with traditional jet fuel.

However, a challenge lies in the fact that employing these computationally complex methods without stability preservation might not suffice to handle the rapid changes of this highly dynamic environment in real-world scenarios over communication delays. This study introduces a flexible real-time approach for the frequency control problem using an artificial neural network (ANN) constrained to stabilized regions. Our solution integrates stabilizing PID controllers, computed through small-signal analysis and tuned via an automated search for optimal ANN weights and reinforcement learning (RL)-based selected constraints. First, we design stabilizing PID controllers by applying the stability boundary locus method and the Mikhailov criterion, specifically addressing communication delays. Next, we refine the controller parameters online through an automated process that identifies optimal coefficient combinations, leveraging a constrained ANN to manage frequency deviations within a restricted parameter range. Our approach is further enhanced by employing the RL technique, which trains the tuning system using an interpolated stability boundary curve to ensure both stability and performance. This one-of-a-kind combination of ANN, RL, and advanced PID tuning methods is a big step forward in how we handle frequency control problems in isolated AC microgrids. The experiments show that our solution outperforms traditional methods due to its reduced parameter search space. In particular, the proposed method reduces transient and steady-state frequency deviations more than semi- and unconstrained methods. The improved metrics and stability analysis show that the method improves system performance and stability under changing conditions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34138,"journal":{"name":"Energy and AI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":9.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666546824000879/pdfft?md5=aa1f6332916d594872b4758b677dbe81&pid=1-s2.0-S2666546824000879-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142162848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, deep learning has emerged as a highly effective tool in overcoming persistent issues in battery diagnostics by adeptly managing expansive design spaces and discerning intricate, multidimensional correlations. This approach resolves challenges previously deemed insurmountable, especially with lost, irregular, or noisy data through the design of specialized network architectures that adhere to physical invariants.

Emerging technologies such as explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), AI for IT operations (AIOps), lifelong machine learning to mitigate catastrophic forgetting, and cloud-based digital twins open new opportunities for intelligent battery life-cycle assessment. In this perspective, we outline these challenges and opportunities, emphasizing the potential of innovative technologies to transform battery diagnostics, as demonstrated by our recent practice and the progress made in the field.
