Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradation of High Voltage Polymeric Insulators in Arid Desert's Simulated Environmental ConditionsYasin KhanProblem statement: High Voltage (HV) polymeric insulators are replacing ceramic insulator commonly used for HV outdoor networks due to their ease of handling, reliability and cost. However, their long term performance and reliability are major concerns to power utilities. Approach: To investigate their performance in arid desert's conditions, two types of HV composite insulators were aged as per International Electrochemical … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,103 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA GA Based Transmission Network Expansion Planning Considering Voltage Level, Network Losses and Number of Bundle LinesS. Jalilzadeh, H. Shayeghi, M. Mahdavi, H. HadadianTransmission Network Expansion Planning (TNEP) was studied considering voltage level, network losses and number of bundle lines using decimal codification based genetic algorithm (DCGA). TNEP determines the characteristic and performance of the future electric power network and directly influences the operation of power system. Up till now, various methods have been presented for the solution of the Static Transmission Network … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of the Harmonics, the Fault Location and the Fault Resistance on the Performance of the Impedance-Type Distance RelayA. S. Khraiwish, M. Alshamasin, R. Kassasbeh et al.One of today's trends is continuously increasing the number and the power ratings of the non-linear loads connected to the electric power systems. These non-linear loads, such as power-electronic converters, are the main source of the harmonics that affect the performance of the impedance-type distance relays. It was found that, in the presence of harmonics, undesired operation of such type … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,569 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPneumatic and Hydraulic Systems in Coal Fluidized Bed CombustorZ. O. Opafunso, I. I. Ozigis, I. A. AdetundeProblem statement: This study designed the pneumatic and hydraulic systems in coal fluidized bed combustor. These are fluidization of silica sand bed material, Air distributor, centrifugal fan, electric motor power drive and surface heat exchanger. Approach: The effects of increased gas velocity on silica sand and the resultant drag force formed the basic equations in fluidization. Air distributor was introduced … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractShort-Term and Medium-Term Load Forecasting for Jordan's Power SystemI. Badran, H. El-Zayyat, G. HalasaSeveral electric power companies are now forecasting electric loads based on conventional methods. However, since the relationship between loads and factors influencing these loads is nonlinear, it is difficult to identify its nonlinearity by using conventional methods. Most of papers deal with 24-h-ahead load forecasting or next day peak load forecasting. These methods forecast the demand power by using forecasted … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation Model of Brushless Excitation SystemAhmed N. Abd AllaExcitation system is key element in the dynamic performance of electric power systems, accurate excitation models are of great importance in simulating and investigating the power system transient phenomena. Parameter identification of the Brushless excitation system was presented. First a block diagram for the EXS parameter was proposed based on the documents and maps in the power station. To identify … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,528 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 abstractCodesign Methodology of Real-time Embedded Controllers for Electromechanical SystemsSlim Ben Saoud, Andreas Gerstlauer, Daniel D. GajskiUnder increasing time-to-market pressures in the electric drives industries, the development time of new algorithms and new control systems including their debugging time must be minimized. This requirement can be satisfied only by using a well-defined system-level design methodology and by reducing the migration time between the algorithm development language and the hardware specification language. In this study, we propose … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamics at Classical DistributionRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuClassical distribution is the most used in rigid memory mechanisms adapted to four-stroke internal combustion engines such as Otto or diesel, as it was designed by Otto more than 150 years ago, without essential changes from its conception and up today. Since it was not yet possible to introduce the electric car to the industrial scale and today we have … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2019 · 6,400 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,098 accessesView PDFCite
