Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANN Based DSPIC Controller for Reactive Power CompensationR.A. Jayabarathi, N.B. DevarajanIn India with a power shortage of about 10% of installed capacity, the transmission and distribution losses are relatively high. One of the reasons for the large loss is the excessive reactive loads on the primary distribution feeder. With the right amount of reactive power compensation, as system load varies, line losses can be considerably reduced. The application of Artificial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,851 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Development of a Photovoltaic Power System for Tropical Greenhouse CoolingFaisal Mohammed Seif Al-Shamiry, Desa Ahmad, Abdul Rashid Mohamed Sharif et al.Renewable energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) panels are used today in many applications. Natural ventilation in tropical greenhouse is common method for ventilation, which gives higher inside temperatures compared to the outside temperatures. In addition, this type of ventilation is not enough to reduce high temperature inside the structure in low land areas. Thus the requirement of cooling is increased. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,213 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFast Power Loss Computation and Shunt Capacitor Insertion Using Fuzzy Logic TechniqueWagah F. Mohammad, Nabil Tawalbeh, Kasim M. Al-AubidyFast power loss computation was implemented using supervisory control and data acquisition system (SCADA) with personal computer. Logic Control Array (LCA) and EPROM circuits were used to implement SCADA system to facilitate the required measurements to obtain the daily load profile for residential and commercial customers. LCA, EPROM and PC were used to simplify the electronic circuits, reduce the cost … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,391 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLoad Balancing on Open Networks: A Mobile Agent ApproachR. B. Patel, Neetu AggarwalIn order to disperse the load on a Web server, generally the server cluster is configured to distribute access requests, or mirror servers are distributed geographically on different networks. Use of the Internet and the World-Wide-Web (WWW) has become widespread in recent years and mobile agent technology has proliferated at an equally rapid rate to evenly distribute the requests to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 6,616 accessesView PDF Cite
