The current study presents the design features and photovoltaic requirements of a floating photovoltaic plant (FPVP) whose purpose is to reduce the evaporation from the surface of a water reservoir while generating ...

This paper presents a distance protection test procedure by applying the Real-Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) of a power system. RTDS is a tool to design, develop, and test power-system protection. The RTDS enables ...

In this paper, the training needs of wind farm employees have been specified, assessed and prioritized. For this purpose, first of all, the main tasks of wind farm employees have been identified. Afterwards, four ...

The many advantages of renewable energies—especially wind—such as abundance, permanence, and lack of pollution, have encouraged many industrialized and developing countries to focus more on these clean sources of energy. ...

The optimal design of a plate-fin recuperator of a 200-kW microturbine was studied in this paper. The exergy efficiency, pressure drop and total cost were selected as the three important objective functions of the ...

Decisions can be taken to increase energy efficiency and to mitigate the emissions to the environment by examining the energy audit and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions footprint of crop production in different ways and ...

The present paper reports the laminar fluid flow and heat transfer of a heated array of circular-perforated and solid fins mounted over a flat surface using the finite-volume method. One to four circular cross-sectional ...

In this study, a reputable Kalina cycle system, KCS 11, is simulated and analysed. Within this efficient cycle, there are three heat exchangers: the first heat exchanger is designated for heat absorption from the heat ...

Output power in a hybrid power system is constant while the input power with variable characteristics that is generated by different sources. Using Hybrid Electrical Energy Storage (HEES) systems, is growing rapidly ...

Biomass, as a renewable source of energy, can be used in many industries to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels. However, due to the significantly high and varied moisture content of biomass, its use has several ...
