  • Method For Energy Demand Management In A Production Flow Line
    Publication number: 20150227138
    Abstract: A method for energy demand management in a production flow line having a plurality of stations. The method includes calculating a slack time for the production flow line or a selected station and determining an option of operation mode flexibility. In addition the method includes performing a feasibility analysis of the option and providing a solution based on an elasticity measure. The method is supported by a mean value analysis technique and discrete event simulation. The method provides an automated energy auditing and analysis tool in a production system.
