  • ID 233 Optimization of Network Design for Charging Station
    Proceedings of the 5th NA International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Detroit, Michigan, USA, August 10 - 14, 2020 Optimization of Network Design for Charging Station Placement : A Case Study Silvi Istiqomah, Wahyudi Sutopo Master Program of Industrial Engineering Department Universitas Sebelas Maret Surakarta, Indonesia [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The use of electric vehicles (EV) is quite a lot. With so many EVs scattered, it is necessary to plan the placement of a filling station that takes into account all the components of tractive effort, regenerative braking, and parasitic power users. Actual driving distance and altitude data from Google Maps are used as data for placement of filling stations and can therefore far more accurately predict the range that can be achieved from a given EV than a typical Euclidean distance model. In addition, the optimization model for filling station placement considers the number of affordable households in the filling station procurement plan. One problem in this study is the importance of meeting the increasing demand for EV fuels. Considerations for adjusting existing EV levels. The proposed optimization technique is applied to the transportation network, and in the case study in the Solo area, where the focus is to reach the maximum range with the minimum number of filling station distances. The results are promising and show that flexibility, smart route selection, and numerical efficiency of the proposed design techniques, can choose strategic locations to fill stations from thousands of possible locations without numerical difficulties. Keywords Optimization, Charging station, Placement 1. Introduction With the development of EV, the planning of electric vehicle charging stations (EV) has become an important concern of distribution network planning.

  • Landmark Designation Report
    CITY OF HOUSTON Archaeological & Historical Commission _____ Planning and Development Department LANDMARK DESIGNATION REPORT LANDMARK NAME: Gulf Oil Filling Station AGENDA ITEM: C.2 OWNERS: Brookhollow Venture LTD HPO FILE NO.: 15L307 APPLICANT: Stephen Harrison DATE ACCEPTED: Apr-01-2015 LOCATION: 3709 La Branch Street HAHC HEARING DATE: Apr-23-2015 SITE INFORMATION Lots 5 & 6, Block 3, Empire, City of Houston, Harris County, Texas. The site includes a 294 square foot one story commercial building, formerly a gas station. TYPE OF APPROVAL REQUESTED: Landmark Designation HISTORY AND SIGNIFICANCE SUMMARY The Gulf Oil Filling Station at 3709 La Branch Street was constructed circa 1926 at a time when the automobile was becoming dominant in American cities. Built for the Gulf Oil Corporation, it is an excellent high-style example of early twentieth century neighborhood filling stations, and is representative of the transition in Gulf filling stations from the residentially-oriented Craftsman house with canopy form of 1910-1930 to the more streamlined, Art Deco influenced oblong box with canopy of the 1930s and 1940s. For half of a century, the La Branch station served the community of the Third Ward, but in the 1970s it fell into disrepair, as the neighborhood filling station was eclipsed by full-service gas station convenience stores located on major thoroughfares and highways. More recently, the structure has enjoyed a new lease on life as an ever-changing canvas for public art. Even in its vacancy the Gulf Filling Station has remained a neighborhood fixture and hub of activity. The building is currently undergoing rehabilitation for a new commercial use.

One site, considered to be representative of the aquatic resource at the time of assessment, was assessed on 25 May 2018 downgradient of the proposed development. In the Government gazette of 18 May 1984 No 9225 the general standard to which waste water and effluent must be purified prior to discharge is stated. The value for soap, oil and grease is 2.5 mg/L. With the promulgation of the new National Water Act in 1998 the strategy for conserving aquatic resources has changed, however, no new standard for soaps, oil and grease are available. The results of the water sampling at the downgradient site were thus compared to the available general effluent standard for comparison.

  • Leave the Filling Station Behind: Wireless, Distributed, 7-11 Kw Charging Changes How, When and Where Evs Will “Fill Up” — and Makes Charging Easy As Parking a Car
    Leave the Filling Station Behind: Wireless, distributed, 7-11 kW charging changes how, when and where EVs will “fill up” — and makes charging easy as parking a car WiTricity Corporation ©WiTricity Corporation Leave the Filling Station Behind: Wireless, distributed, 7-11 kW charging changes how, when and where EVs will “fill up” — and makes charging easy as parking a car In 1973 and again in 1979, cars lined up sometimes for blocks on end at filling stations — with gas rationing and consumer panic replacing the laws of supply and demand. Electric vehicle (EV) owners today, by contrast, don’t face shortages or supply crises over their fuel. Electricity is of course not nearly as volatile a commodity as oil. Yet, relying too heavily on the “filling station” mindset risks the downsides of filling stations too. Level 3, DC Fast Charging (DCFC) kiosks at gas stations, rest areas and shopping centers will undoubtedly be crucial EV range extenders. However, according to Gas lines, 1973 studies by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, DCFC will only be needed 4% of the time, when EVs are used for longer trips that extend beyond their battery capacity. [1] For the vast majority of EV use — the other 96% of the time — DCFC will be overkill and likely anywhere from an inconvenience to a hassle to the kind of miserable, queuing experience drivers regularly faced in 1973 and ’79. This time, though, rather than a shortage of fuel, a shortage of DCFC stations would be the cause of any lines at the “pump.” EVs can in fact leave the filling station experience nearly completely behind — at least 96% in the rearview mirror.

  • Ethanol Production Impacts Transportation System
    June 2007 Ethanol Production Impacts Transportation System Over the past few years, renewable and alternative fuels have received significant public and media attention regarding energy prices, national energy security, eco- nomic impacts, environmental effects and a whole range of other issues. But how do fuels such as ethanol ultimately get to consumers at the filling station? The logistical aspects of transporting energy feedstocks like corn to ethanol plants, and moving fuels to filling stations has received less scrutiny. In 2005, the U.S. used 20.7 million barrels of petroleum each day, using 67 percent for transportation, the largest single use of petroleum. Imports of oil have outstripped domestic production since 1996, with 12.4 million barrels imported per day.1 This makes fuels such as ethanol a focal point in discussions of how to displace demand for petroleum, which requires an investigation of fuel transport trends. “The biofuels industry has a major impact on the transportation system,” says North- ern Iowa Council of Governments Executive Director Joe Myhre, who has witnessed significant growth of ethanol in the COG’s eight-county region. “Locally, the coun- ties have to invest monies to build and maintain the infrastructure that supports the ethanol or biodiesel plants, and the state has been a tremendous partner in providing assistance.” Ethanol Production in the United States Use of ethanol in the United States began in the mid-1800s, but production was limit- ed until after lead was phased out of gasoline and government incentives to produce ethanol were established in the 1970s.

  • Experimental Study on the Effects of Kerosene-Doped Gasoline on Gasoline-Powered Engine Performance Characteristics
    Journal of Petroleum and Gas Engineering Vol. 1(2), pp. 37-40, June 2010 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/JPGE © 2010 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Experimental study on the effects of kerosene-doped gasoline on gasoline-powered engine performance characteristics O. Obodeh* and N. C. Akhere Mechanical Engineering Department, Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Edo State, Nigeria. Accepted 19 April, 2010 This investigation was carried out to study the engine-out emissions from a four-stroke, four-cylinder, water-cooled spark ignition (SI) engine with kerosene blended gasoline with different proportions of kerosene ranging from 0 - 50% by volume in step of 10%. Gaseous exhaust emissions were measured with the aid of pocket gas TM -portable gas analyzer. The experimental results showed that the engine-out emissions increase with increase concentration of kerosene in the blend. The analyses gave increase ranging from 21.7 - 53% for carbon monoxide (CO), 23.4 - 57.1% for unburnt hydrocarbon (HC) and 2.4 - 8.2% for particulate matter (PM). The experiment also showed increase in specific fuel consumption (SFC) for all load conditions ranging form 34 - 36%. Measures needed to reduce fuel adulteration were suggested. The measures encompass effective monitoring mechanism and enforcement of heavy penalty on sale of adulterated fuels. Key words: Kerosene-gasoline blend, gasoline engine, engine-out emissions. INTRODUCTION Where different products of comparable qualities have In Nigeria, the adulteration of gasoline is normally different prices or consumers have no efficient tools to indulged primary due to the significant price differential distinguish similar products of different qualities, between products.
