Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuel and Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Potentials by Appropriate Fuel Switching and Technology Improvement in the Canadian Electricity Generation SectorFarshid Zabihian, Alan S. FungProblem statement: In recent years, Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and their potential effects on global climate change have been a worldwide concern. According to International Energy Agency (IEA), power generation contributes more than half of the global GHG emissions. Approach: Purpose of this study is to examine GHG emission reduction potentials in the Canadian electricity generation sector through fuel switching … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Development through Waste Heat RecoveryP. S. Bundela, Vivek ChawlaProblem statement: Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) steam Technology is a proven Technology pioneered by Japanese for cement plant and it is economically viable. Electrical Power can be generated by adopting the latest technology in this field. It used a medium to low temperature (120-350°C) Turbine technology (standard thermal power plants run on steam temp-500°C). Approach: It requires treat exchangers (Hx) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,406 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Decentralized Control of Unified Power Flow ControllerHossein Shayeghi, Ali AbdolalipourA new approach based on structured singular value is proposed for the robust decentralized Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) design. To achieve decentralization, using the schauder fixed point theorem the synthesis and analysis of Multi-Input Multi-output (MIMO) control system is translated into set of equivalent Multi-Input Single-Output (MISO) control system. Power systems such as the other industrial plants contain different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Critical Review of Global Wind Power GenerationT. Ahilan, Dr. K.P. Mohammed, Dr. S. ArumughamThis research begins with an overview of wind development and installation-related trends, including trends in capacity growth. Development of wind power has reached a level of maturity, which could be taken upon for further novelty and growth in meeting the future energy needs in much greater proportion. Current research techniques are producing stronger, lighter and more efficient blades for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,486 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Robust Decentralized Control for UPFC Controller Based on Structured Singular ValueSeyed Abbas Taher, Shahabeddin Akbari, Ali Abdolalipour, Reza HemattiNew approach based on structured singular value (µ-synthesis) was proposed for the robust decentralized unified power flow controller (UPFC) design. To achieve decentralization, using the Schauder fixed point theorem the synthesis and analysis of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) control system translated into a set of equivalent multi-input single-output (MISO) control system. Power systems similar to other industrial plants contain different kinds … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Applied Research Program on Water Desalination with Renewable EnergiesSergio M. Alcocer, Gerardo HiriartThe use of renewable energy for desalination might be quite different in many places of the world. In Mexico, specifically in Baja California, there is an abundance of "traditional" renewable resources like sun and wind but also some others like hot springs at the coast, tidal currents and tidal amplitudes of over six meters in the upper part of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Model Predictive Control System Design and Implementation for Unmanned Ground VehiclesSai Charan Dekkata, Sun Yi, MA Muktadir et al.Autonomous ground robots autonomously are being used inthe places where it is very hazardous for human beings to reach and operate,such as nuclear power plants and chemical industries. The aim of the researchpresented here is to develop a control system that enables such ground robotsnavigate autonomously with various sensors as the depth camera, 2D scanninglaser, 3D Lidar, GPS, and IMU. … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 27 Oct 2022 · 6,004 accessesView PDFCite
