An innovative application of activity–based costing and management in decision support modelling
The purpose of this article is to introduce a new cost management and decision support model. The current cost monitoring models act as real–time cost calculators rather than as decision support tools. The model presented in this study can monitor and analyse the costs in real–time. This will allow for timely and effective marketing and operations decision–making, e.g., selling price, marketing ...

Project - Spatial Model in Hagichon
Partially funded by the water authority of Israel Decision Makers have started the implementation of the spatial model concept that has been developed in the SAFEWATER project in the city of Jerusalem. The Israeli Ministry of Energy funds this project. It includes the development of a monitoring system that alerts when the performance of Solar inverters is deteriorating. Currently, the pilot ...

How to Monitor Data Centre Power Usage
There is now a huge desire amongst IT and Facilities professionals to adopt a suitable power management strategy, but implementation with existing tools can be extremely disruptive and problematic. Unless a new data centre is being built from scratch, installation of intelligent PDUs and inline power monitoring devices will ultimately result in considerable downtime and cost. However, a solution ...

Wallem and AO Schiffahrt uses FluidScan for Shipboard Condition Monitoring - Case study
With depressed freight rates and overcapacity of shipping on lucrative trade routes, most shipping companies across the world are now practicing "slow steaming" operations. Operating the main "two-stroke" engines at 40-60% of their nominal output results in dramatically lower fuel costs but at high risk of cylinder cold corrosion if lubrication is not carefully managed. Adding to the complexity ...

Cubic Gas Sensing Solutions in Lithium-Ion Batteries Thermal Runaway Application
Recent years, lithium-ion batteries thermal runaway events have attracted widespread attention. To further reduce the loss of life and property caused by lithium-ion batteries thermal runaway, some important regulations have been promulgated. UN GTR 20: “The vehicle shall provide an advance warning indication to allow egress or 5 minutes prior to the presence of a hazardous situation inside ...

Fuel Cell Voltage Monitoring Considerations
Knowing what’s happening inside a fuel cell is a critical function, especially as fuel cells are continuing to be developed. One important aspect of this is to measure the voltageof each cell in a stack. Although this may sound trivial, it can be more complex and more expensive than it may at first appear due to high voltages, high channel counts,communication types, etc. There are a few ...

SRF – a class of its own
Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) is still classified as a waste material, not a product, despite the fact it is manufactured to a quality specification and is a resource from which energy can be recovered. Here, UNTHA UK’s alternative fuel production expert Marcus Brew considers the parameters within which SRF must be manufactured, before investigating the arguments for and against SRF being ...

Smarter grids, appliances, and consumers
More and more utilities are beginning to realize that building large power plants just to handle peak daily and seasonal demand is a very costly way of managing an electricity system. Existing electricity grids are typically a patchwork of local grids that are simultaneously inefficient, wasteful, and dysfunctional in that they often are unable, for example, to move electricity surpluses to areas ...
