PhD Thesis - Energy Systems Research Unit - University of Strathclyde

This chapter described how the overall MERIT system works, incorporating the
changes outlined in this thesis. The techniques used to verify the behaviour of
the models adopted and other changes made were also discussed. The
applicability of the program will be shown in Chapter 8, through the use of a
relevant case study.
