The Energetic Company needs to make plans for the energy systems for a new building. The energy needs in the building fall into three categories: (1) electricity. (2) heating water, and (3) heating space in the build- ing. The daily requirements for these three categories (all measured in the same units) are Electricity 30 units Water heating 20 units Space heating 50 units The three possible sources of energy to meet these needs are elec- tricity, natural gas, and a solar heating unit that can be installed on the roof. The size of the roof limits the largest possible solar heater to 40 units, but there is no limit to the electricity and nat- ural gas available. Electricity needs can be met only by purchas ing electricity (at a cost of $50 per unit). Both other energy needs can be met by any source or combination of sources. The unit costs are Electricity Natural Gas Solar Heater Water heating $150 $110 $70 Space heating $140 $100 $90 The objective is to minimize the total cost of meeting the energy needs. (a) Formulate this problem as a transportation problem by con- structing the appropriate parameter table. DI (b) Use the northwest corner rule to obtain an initial BF solu- tion for this problem. D. (c) Starting with the initial BF solution from part (b), interac- tively apply the transportation simplex method to obtain an optimal solution. D.1 (d) Use Vogel's approximation method to obtain an initial BF solution for this problem. D.1 (e) Starting with the initial BF solution from part (d), interac- tively apply the transportation simplex method to obtain an optimal solution.
