Classically, the purpose of the gas network was the transportation of predominantly natural gas from a supplier to the consumer for long-term scheduled volumes. With the rise of renewable energy sources, gas-fired power plants are often chosen to compensate for the fluctuating nature of the renewables, due to their on-demand power generation capability. Such an only short-term plannable supply and demand setting requires sophisticated simulations of the gas network prior to the dispatch to ensure the supply of all customers for a range of possible scenarios and to prevent damages to the gas network. In this work we describe the modelling of gas networks and present benchmark systems to test implementations and compare new or extended models.}, language = {en} } @misc{StreubelStrohmTrunschkeetal., author = {Streubel, Tom and Strohm, Christian and Trunschke, Philipp and Tischendorf, Caren}, title = {Generic Construction and Efficient Evaluation of Network DAEs and Their Derivatives in the Context of Gas Networks}, issn = {1438-0064}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-89920-6_83}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-64582}, abstract = {We present a concept that provides an efficient description of differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) describing flow networks which provides the DAE function f and their Jacobians in an automatized way such that the sparsity pattern of the Jacobians is determined before their evaluation and previously determined values of f can be exploited.

When applied to such a problem, the classical trapezoidal rule suffers from a loss of accuracy if the solution trajectory intersects a nondifferentiability of \(F\). The advantage of the proposed generalized trapezoidal rule is threefold: Firstly, we can achieve a higher convergence order than with the classical method. Moreover, the method is energy preserving for piecewise linear Hamiltonian systems. Finally, in analogy to the classical case we derive a third order interpolation polynomial for the numerical trajectory. In the smooth case the generalized rule reduces to the classical one. Hence, it is a proper extension of the classical theory. An error estimator is given and numerical results are presented.}, language = {en} }
