Abstract

To overcome many-query optimization, control, or uncertainty quantification work loads in reliable gas and energy network operations, model order reduction is the mathematical technology of choice. To this end, we enhance the model, solver and reductor components of the "morgen" platform, introduced in Himpe et al [J.~Math.~Ind. 11:13, 2021], and conclude with a mathematically, numerically and computationally favorable model-solver-reductor ensemble.
