Improving the efficiency of management of transport and energy resources of the logistics system of an industrial enterprise

Purpose. To define peculiarities of the processes and indicators of the functioning of the transport and warehouse logistics system (TWLS) of industrial enterprises using a simulation model that takes into account the need to implement a cargo delivery plan to warehouses in conditions of restoring the flowability of cargo during unloading, in order to determine the optimal operating parameters based on the criterion of minimum costs. Methodology. To build a model of the functioning of the transport-warehouse logistics system of unloading raw materials at the enterprise, the method of simulation modelling was used, statistical analysis was used to establish the laws of distribution of the input parameters of the model. The assessment of the use of energy resources was carried out using a regression analysis of the duration of heating of various types of cargo at industrial enterprises. Findings. The conducted experiments on the developed simulation model made it possible to determine the rational number of used resources – locomotives and cargo heating chambers when they freeze. Due to the use of the proposed methods and model, the efficiency of the management of transport and energy resources of the logistics system of an industrial enterprise has been increased. Originality. The developed simulation model of the functioning of the raw material and fuel unloading subsystem, unlike the existing ones, takes into account the peculiarities of the transport and storage process in the cold period of the year and allows determining the rational number of transport and auxiliary resources, taking into account the influence of external factors. Practical value. The obtained results make it possible to increase the efficiency of the TWLS operation of industrial enterprises due to the development of methods based on the logistic approach to the management of transport-warehouse processes. The simulation model of the management of the heating and unloading process allows you to determine the most economical mode of operation of transport and warehouse logistics systems of industrial enterprises by determining the rational number of involved resources.
