abstract = {Volatile renewable electricity production causes a temporal
mismatch of supply and demand, which can be reduced by
consumers using optimal production scheduling to shift their
demand in time. However, if production processes with
nonlinear dynamics must be scheduled simultaneously with
multi-energy systems (MESs) introducing discrete on/off
decisions, the resulting optimization problems are typically
not solvable in real-time today. This thesis reformulates
simultaneous dynamic scheduling (SDS) problems of MESs and
nonlinear production processes to mixed-integer linear
programs (MILPs), which can be solved in real-time. These
MILP reformulations rely on tailored scheduling models
consisting of three piece-wise affine (PWA) parts: (1)
process output models, (2) data-driven process energy demand
models, and (3) MILP energy system models. For part 1, we
present two alternatives: First, we use a scale-bridging
model (SBM), which is easy-to-apply but requires heuristic
tuning. We use two cooled continuous stirred tank reactor
(CSTR) case studies to show that our approach can capture
the major part of the nonlinear potential in real time, and
a heated distillation column case study to show that our
approach can reduce the number of states substantially.
Second, as a rigorous alternative to the heuristically tuned
SBM, we derive dynamic ramping constraints (DRCs), which are
first restricted to flat processes with only one scheduling
relevant variable. These DRCs consider linear dynamics of
high order with PWA constraints. We use that, for flat
processes, a nonlinear model can be transferred to a linear
model by coordinate transformation. Again, we use a CSTR
case study to show that our approach can capture the major
part of the nonlinear potential. For non-flat processes, we
develop heuristic DRCs, based on simulation experiments. For
the heated distillation column, these heuristic DRCs perform
similarly to SBMs regarding both optimization runtime and
operational costs. Lastly, we show that DRCs can also
consider multiple scheduling-relevant variables by applying
DRCs to an electrolyzer with slow temperature dynamics. We
outperform a quasi-steady-state scheduling through optimized
temperature dynamics. This thesis thus offers reformulations
that strike reasonable compromises between optimization
runtime and solution quality for SDS of production processes
and MESs. While SBMs can be applied with less effort and
knowledge, DRCs offer more dynamic flexibility for flat
processes.},
