This paper describes a methodology for transmission expansion planning (TEP) within a deregulated electricity market. Two objective functions including investment cost (IC) and congestion cost (CC) are considered. The proposed model forms a bi-level optimization problem in which upper level problem represents an independent system operator (ISO) making its decisions on investment while in the l...

Liquid paraffin can be used as a coolant fluid in electronic and cutting devices due to its suitable capabilities such as electrical insulating, high heat capacity, chemical, and thermal stability, and high boiling point. In this study, the dynamic viscosity of paraffin containing the alumina nanoparticles has been examined experimentally. The nanofluids with different composition of alumina (0...

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) technology shows great interest in the recent scientificliteratures. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) is a interconnection of energy storage of PHEVs and grid. Byimplementation of V2G dependencies of the power system on small expensive conventional units canbe reduced, resulting in reduced operational cost. This paper represents an intelligent unitcommitment (UC) wi...

Encountering series-compensated transmission lines, sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) may strike the power system by jeopardizing its stability and mechanical facilities. This paper aims to verify the capability of static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) in mitigating the mechanical and electrical oscillations such as SSR in wind farm integrations. A wind turbine with a self–excited inductio...

the prophet’s political activities in medina indicate a particular kind of power exercise in the public domain. on the other hand, after receiving shari’a, he promulgated it and enforced the related verdicts and teachings among people. realization of these two facts in his behavior turns the relationship between power exercise by him and islamic shari’a into a basic question. the relationship b...

The chemical compositions, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of fucoidan extracted from Sargassum ilicifolium and S.angustifolium were investigated. The results showed that these seaweeds were characterized by an acceptable level of minerals and proteins. The fatty acid profile was dominated by the palmitic acid, which represents about 37.44±0.01% and 23.05±0.01% of the...
