GENERAL
MODELLING AND OPTIMIZATION OF ENERGY SYSTEMS
Session (Mon 08:15-12:00)
Instructor: Prof. François Maréchal
Assistants: Eduardo Pina, Sai Sudharshan Ravi
Overview:
The objective of this course is to teach the basics of computer aided process system engineering for modelling and optimization of energy conversion systems. The students will learn how to build energy systems models and how to carry out thermo-economic optimization for optimal system's design. Both linear and non-linear problems will be modelled and solved using proper tools. Multi objective optimizations techniques will be used to consider both economic and environmental targets. The main concepts are applied in a group project.
Class planning:
Each Monday, there is a course meeting at EPFL. The class meeting consists of different elements:
- Lectures T1-12: Lectures on course theory held by Professor Maréchal/Dr. E. Pina.
- Introduction project part 1-4: Introduction to the different aspects of the project, by Professor Maréchal and the assistants.
- Discussion T 1-12: Flip class on course theory, where students present key concepts of the course to the class. (Miro link here, zoom link).
- Each course session consists of 2-4 elements, depending on their length. The following table summarises the semester outline, including the theory and project topics covered each week.
Recorded classes and presentations can be found here.
Resources:
- Lecture slides as well as relevant videos are uploaded on Moodle.
- For questions regarding the theory, please use the forum "theory questions"
- For project-related questions that are relevant for the whole group, please use the Mattermost "townsquare" channel.
- If you need to refresh your knowledge in Thermodynamics and engineering, please use this free course.
- The VMs are accessible using VMware Horizon in the server https://vdi.epfl.ch under the name STI-FM-cours-2024
Problems in accessing the materials ?
1. If you cannot access the virtual machine (VM) (VPN needed outside EPFL campus), please contact M.Sai Ravi;2. if you have problems on VM, e.g. blackscreen, frozen screen etc, please contact 1234@epfl.ch ;

Project material
During the semester, each group will receive access to a dedicated GitLab repository. This repository contains everything you need for the project: the required data, a Quarto (
To explore the tutorial, download the
That said, you are not required to use Quarto. You are free to perform your calculations using Jupyter Notebooks (e.g., via noto.epfl.ch) or any other computational environment. You can also use other tools like Overleaf for writing your report, as long as the final output is clear and well-structured.
At the end of the project, each group must submit:
-
Your working repository (with code, data, and any documentation)
-
A PDF report of your results
You will be evaluated based on the quality of your scientific reporting, not the specific tools you choose to use.
Discussion Forums
During this course, we will be using mattermost for most of the communications. To create an account click here. Mattermost is a communication tool similar to Slack (and eventually Whatsapp). All the groups will have a dedicated channel with TA's assigned that answer questions specific to the project; furthermore, it is also the place to share tasks, ask questions and book time slots with the TAs

Flip Class
The Miro plateform is used to present your answer to the theory discussions. You can insert any figure or explanation in the space dedicated to your question and you will present the answer during the flip classes. You can join the zoom class here.

-
Be respectful, constructive, and critical.

-
Storytelling: Is the flow logical? Are sections well connected?

- The exam will take place from January 27 to 31, 2025 in the room ME A2 465 (the one of your presentation with pr. Maréchal in December).
- The exam will start with your short 3 minutes speech about your project. Avoid getting over 3 minutes! Then prof. Maréchal will ask you questions on the theory of the course. Only prof. Maréchal will ask questions. The 2-3 other TAs and experts will only grade your answers.
- During the exam, you will have at your disposal a screen with your own summary of your project (on Miro). You can also put some theory notes and equations on it to support your answers to the theory questions. A good advice is to avoid covering your summary with the whole course, since it usually disturb the explanation, make it unclear and make the student lost in the summary. You have to submit the link to your miro board > 24 hours before your exam.
- For the student doing the oral exam online, here is the zoom link. You will receive as well an inviation by mail (https://epfl.zoom.us/j/67721524400?pwd=2WjegYGAql47DsQpHCDtk1xKWLzXAH.1)
