Abstract

The demand for energy is constantly growing: analysts forecast that it will increase by 50% by 2040. New deposits being discovered and the elaboration of new methods of hydrocarbons extraction will allow using these resources for a long time. Nevertheless, most countries have begun to think about using solar power. This interest is caused not only by environmental problems, but also by the fact that annually 178.000 TW of solar radiation reaches our planet. To use solar energy, two methods – thermal and photovoltaic – are used. The first one involves heating up used liquid, the second one implies the conversion of sunlight into electrical energy. Containers for storing fossil fuels are installed at oil terminals. This hydrocarbon can be crude or refined oil in a form of heavy (mazut) or light (diesel) fuel. Solar energy can be used at oil terminals both for heating hydrocarbons (in order to reduce viscosity to operating parameters), and for storing electrical power. The use of solar energy will improve energy efficiency and the environmental component of a terminal. The paper presents the functioning of an oil product heating system as a sequence of events based on cause-effect relations. For a formal description of the logical structure of processes of solar energy use, the authors proposed a solution using the Petri net machine. Prerequisites for the use of Petri nets are: the presence of random and deterministic components in the process of generation of solar energy; the possibility of representing the conversion of solar energy in the form of sets of technologically homogeneous parallel processes; situational control related to the randomness of the possibility of converting solar energy. With the help of the model and by using the Petri net, conflict situations were found that could be solved by situational control. As practice shows, such kind of local situations is solved within the framework of automated control.
