Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling, Simulation and Group Control of Distributed Static Series CompensatorsPoria Fajri, Saeed Afsharnia, Daryoush Nazarpour, Mohammad Ali TavallaeiThis study investigates the new concept of Distributed Static Series Compensator (DSSC); a small, light weight cylinder that clamps directly onto the transmission line conductor and has the ability to alter the impedance of the power lines in order to increase power transfer capability and maximize economic value of the transmission system. A graphic-based simulation model of the DSSC is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2008 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordExperimental Modeling of Pile-Leg Interaction in Jacket Type Offshore Platforms Cyclic Inelastic BehaviorM.R. Honarvar, M.R. Bahaari, B. AsgarianOffshore platforms in seismically active areas should be designed to survive in the event of severe ground excitations with no global structural failure. The annulus between the pile and leg in jacket-type offshore platforms can be filled with cement grout as a means of reducing horizontal deflections, inhibiting corrosion and preventing local damages. This paper discusses an experimental approach which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling and Control of Three-Phase Shunt Active Power FilterMoleykutty George, Kartik Prasad BasuIn this research the performance of a three-phase shunt active power filter (APF) using Model Reference Controller (MRC) has been compared with that using instantaneous active and reactive (p-q) theory. The novelty of this research lies in the application of MRC to generate the amplitude of the reference supply current required by the APF circuit and the successful implementation of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Design Strategy for Volumetric Efficiency Improvement in a Multi-cylinder Stationary Diesel Engine and its Validity under Transient Engine OperationP. Seenikannan, V.M. Periasamy, P. NagarajThis paper proposes an approach to improve engine performance of volumetric efficiency of a multi cylinder diesel engine. A computer simulation model is used to compare volumetric efficiency with instantaneous values. A baseline engine model is first correlated with measured volumetric efficiency data to establish confidence in the engine model's predictions. A derivative of the baseline model with exhaust manifold, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe 2D Eulerian Approach of Entrained Flow and Temperature in a Biomass Stratified Downdraft GasifierA. Rogel, Jasni AguillónThis paper describes a “1-D+2-D” numerical model used to simulate the gasification of pine wood pellets in a stratified downdraft gasifier whereby Eulerian conservation equations are solved for particle and gas phase components, velocities and specific enthalpies. The model takes into account the biomass particle process such as heating up, drying, primary pyrolysis of biomass, secondary pyrolysis of tar, homogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordNonlinear Growth Models for Modeling Oil Palm Yield GrowthAzme Khamis, Zuhaimy Ismail, khalid Haron, Ahmad Tarmizi MohammedThis study provided the basic needs of parameters estimation for nonlinear growth model such as partial derivatives of each model, determination of initial values for each parameter and statistical tests of industrial usage. Twelve nonlinear growth models and its partial derivatives for oil palm yield growth are presented in this study. The parameters are estimated using the Marquardt iterative method … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 15,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMathematical Modeling of Wastewater Oxidation under Microgravity ConditionsBoyun Guo, Donald W. Holder, David S. SchechterVolatile removal assembly (VRA) is a module installed in the International Space Station for removing contaminants (volatile organics) in the wastewater produced by the crew. The VRA contains a slim pack bed reactor to perform catalyst oxidation of the wastewater at elevated pressure and temperature under microgravity conditions. Optimal design of the reactor requires a thorough understanding about how the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
