Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleENERGY EFFICIENT FLOW AND LEVEL CONTROL IN A HYDRO POWER PLANT USING FUZZY LOGICA. Selwin Mich Priyadharson, M. S. Saravanan, N. Gomathi et al.The main objective and an innovative design of this work is to improve the energy efficiency by controlling the variables flow and level in a hydroelectric power plant using Programmable Logic Control (PLC)-Human Machine Interface (HMI) and fuzzy logic approach. This project will focus on design and development of flow and level controller for small scale hydro generating units by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 19 Apr 2014 · 6,814 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Sediment Profile for 210Pb, Pb, U and Th from Sultan Abu Bakar Dam Due to Soil Erosion from Highland Agriculture Area, Cameron Highlands, MalaysiaZaini Hamzah, Seh Datul Riduan, Ahmad SaatProblem statement: Sultan Abu Bakar Dam in Cameron Highlands act as a catchment’s to accumulate all eroded soil carried by the run off flow through Bertam River, the main river that passes through the highland agriculture area. All suspended solid that carried out by the river contain various kind of hazard potential to the environment. U, Th and Pb are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 12 Jul 2011 · 7,239 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCavern Design Philosophy under High Stress Rock Condition a Case Study in Sri LankaBahram SalehiFor stabilizing of rock cavern stress condition and orientation, rock properties and cavern geometry have determinant effects. Numerical and analytical study and knowledge about self-support arching can assist to designer in appropriate understanding of cavern and ground interaction. The comparative studies by E. Hoek, showed that the mushroom shaped cavern was not an acceptable design because of high value stress … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 21 Mar 2017 · 7,978 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNEURAL CASCADED WITH FUZZY SCHEME FOR CONTROL OF A HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANTA. Selwin Mich Priyadharson, T. Ramesh Kumar, M. S. Saravanan et al.A novel design for flow and level control in a hydroelectric power plant using Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)-Human Machine Interface (HMI) and neural cascaded with fuzzy scheme is proposed. This project will focus on design and development of flow and level controller for small scale hydro generating units by implementing gate control based on PLC-HMI with the proposed scheme. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2014 · 6,527 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVALUATION OF THE ADEQUACY OF THE WIND SPEED EXTRAPOLATION LAWS FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS METEOROLOGICAL SITESDalila Khalfa, Abdelouaheb Benretem, Lazher Herous, Issam MeghlaouiIncreasing knowledge on wind shear models to strengthen their reliability appears as a crucial issue, markedly for energy investors to accurately predict the average wind speed at different turbine hub heights and thus the expected wind energy output. This is particularly helpful during the feasibility study to abate the costs of a wind power project. The extrapolation laws were found … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 7,439 accessesView PDF Cite
