Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLightning Over-Voltages on Amman-Aqaba 400 KV LineGhassan Halasa, Ibrahim Badran, Hafez El-ZayyatAn attempt is made to evaluate the lightning over-voltage failure rate for Amman- Aqaba 400kV transmission line by studying the geographical and temporal characteristics of lightning causing the line forced outages. The line was divided into three sections based on weather and pollution conditions. It was found that the line failure rate due to lightning over-voltages is low compared to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,640 accessesView PDFCite
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 · 8,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonic Elimination of Inverters using Blind Signal SeparationB. Justus Rabi, R. ArumugamHarmonics cause major problems in power system due to non linear loads. With the rapid growth in the utilization of the rectifier for critical loads, e.g. In computer or medical equipment the need for high quality uninterruptible power is increasing. The non-linear current drawn by the rectifier loads distort the output of UPS system. Mainly because of output filter impedance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,903 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonics Study and Comparison of Z-source Inverter with Traditional InvertersB. Justus Rabi, R. ArumugamThis paper presents an Impedance Source Inverter for A.C electrical drives. The impedance source inverter employs a unique impedance network cable with inverter main circuit and rectifier. By controlling the shoot-through duty cycle, the z-source inverter system using MOSFETS provide ride-through capability during voltage sags, reduces line harmonics, improves power factor and high reliability, and extends output voltage range. Analysis, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Fully Integrated Dual-Band Low Noise Amplifier for IEEE 802.11 and Hiper LAN ApplicationMow Shouxian, Ma Jianguo, Yeo Kiat Seng, Do Manh AnhA fully-integrated dual-band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), which can be used for IEEE 802.11 and Hiper LAN applications, was investigated in this paper. The proposed LAN was implemented entirely pm a single chip based on a standard 0.18 μm 1P6M CMOS process. It draws 13 mA current from a 1.5-V voltage supply and achieves power gains of 17 and 10 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,291 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInsulating Properties of Low Density Polyethylene/Alumina NanocompositesSi-Jiao Wang, Jun-Wei Zha, Yun-Hui Wu et al.High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) cable has become an important factor in the development of HVDC transmission. However, there are still difficulties such as space charge distribution in the development of HVDC cables. In this study, Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposites filled with nano alumina (nano-Al2O3) particles with or without modification were prepared by employing melting blend method. The results show … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Jul 2015 · 7,940 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTakagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Gains Scheduled PI Controller for Enhancement of Power System StabilityLokman H. Hassan, M. Moghavvemi, Haider A.F. MohamedProblem statement: Power system oscillations affect system stability and may lead to failure if not properly controlled. Approach: A Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Gains Scheduled Proportional and Integral (FGPI) controller was proposed for a Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC)-based stabilizer to enhance the power system stability. Linguistic rules and fuzzy inference mechanism are utilized to tune the controller parameters on-line in different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,545 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow-Cost Encoding Device for Optical Code Division Multiple Access SystemMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Boonchuan Ng, Norshilawati Mohamad Ibrahim, Sahbudin ShaariProblem statement: Instead of using Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) to develop the coded spectrums, which consist of expensive elements, the grating also are highly sensitive to environmental changes and this will contribute to the increment of capital and operational expenditures (CAPEX and OPEX). Approach: This study presented the development of low-cost 16-ports encoding device for Optical Code Division Multiple Access … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,644 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Single-Phase Rectifier with Improved Power Factor and Low THD using Boost Converter TechniqueIsmail Daut, Rosnazri Ali, Soib TaibThe method of using Boost type of converter was proposed for a 300W single-phase rectifier in this paper. By designing the necessary techniques and methodology, the overall Power Factor (PF) and Total Harmonic Distortion would be improved to the expectation. The cause of having low PF and high THD for a diode-capacitor type of rectifiers is related to non-linearity of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNikola TESLARelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.Nicolae Tesla, has remained and spent most of his life, making it hard to pronounce "Teslea"), is considered to be the inventor of the alternating current and uncovered cableless power transmission. It is attributed to the transmission of energy through monophase, biphasic, polyphase alternating currents and transmission of non-wired energy by electromagnetic waves (oscillations) in the industrial alternating current frequency … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2017 · 13,204 accessesView PDFCite
