摘要：A complex solution of problem of creating mathematical models of multi-energy systems is possible using a unified approach. An approach that will ensure consistent construction of mathematical models and unification of computational algorithms. The paper presents the elements of the concept of energy circuits as a basis for unified modeling of systems of different physical nature. The existing and developed approaches to solving the problems of calculating the flow distribution in multi-energy systems are presented, based on the analysis of publications on this subject. The general structure of the mathematical model of the flow distribution in a multi-energy system and the set of optimization problems for steady-state operating conditions are described. A possible formulation of the optimization problem for the short-term operation of a multi-energy system is presented.
