Optimum parameters of electromechanical system model “electrical grid-drive-compressor-pneumatic network”

Increasing the energy efficiency of the system “electrical network - compressor - pneumatic network” in general can be achieved by performing a “floating” upper level of pressure. The optimal parameters of the mathematical model that allow to determine the optimum operating mode of the compressed air production and distribution system consisting of the following elements “electric network - drive - compressor - pneumatic network” are substantiated in the work. The intervals of the pump pumping-down cycle in the pneumonetwork are determined at a fixed value of compressed air consumption, and the dependence of the optimum efficiency on the compressed air consumption consumed by the compressed air receivers is determined.
