This paper proposes a multi-stage power generation system suitable for renewable energy sources, which is composed of a DC-DC power converter and a three-phase inverter. The DC-DC power converter is a boost converter to convert the output voltage of the DC source into two voltage sources. The DC-DC converter has two switches operates like a continuous conduction mode. The input current of DC-DC...

By identifying the effect of any parameter such as distance, attenuation and scattering on the Line Spread Function (LSF), one can compensate the quantitative and qualitative destructive effect of such parameters by deconvolution method. Using a 99mTC line source, this study was performed on a single head ADAC SPECT system operating in planar mode. Variation of FWTM and FWHM and LSFs as a...

Progress in ocean wave forecasting is described in the context of the fundamental law for wave prediction: the energy balance equation. The energy balance equation gives the rate of change of the sea state caused by adiabatic processes such as advection, and by the physical source functions of the generation of ocean waves by wind, the dissipation due to whitecapping and the nonlinear four-wave...

We present here the design and fabrication of a self-powered and autonomous fringing field capacitive sensor to measure soil water content. The sensor is manufactured using a conventional printed circuit board and includes a porous ceramic. To read the sensor, we use a circuit that includes a 10 kHz triangle wave generator, an AC amplifier, a precision rectifier and a microcontroller. In terms ...

To thoroughly study the extinguishing effect of a high-pressure water mist fire system when transformer occurs, 3D experimental model is established in this work by employing Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) software. More specifically, setting different parameters, process with presence both diverse ambient temperatures and sprinkler laying conditions simulated. In addition, employed implementati...

Fire is one of mankind’s greatest discoveries but can also be a great source danger in accidents. any occupancy has the potential to cause harm its occupants and severe damage property. As solution smart fire detection system designed using GSM technology, smoke/Flame sensors, Arduino water sprinkler system, LCD display, buzzer,. A smoke sensor used detect from Flame sensor. In event The microc...

This study investigates which factors may influence producers’ use of irrigation technologies and/or water management practices (WMPs). One major finding is that Arkansas producers are more likely to rely on WMPs instead of sprinkler irrigation as a response to changes in depth to water and drought occurrences. This finding highlights the importance of expanding the existing literature that foc...

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of treated wastewater on soil chemical and physical properties. Field experiment was conducted in Borkhar region in Isfahan province in central Iran with two water treatments of wastewater and groundwater under sprinkler and surface irrigation systems for three crops of sugar beet, corn and sunflower. Soil samples were collected to 120 cm dep...

in order to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on tea yield and yield components in supplemental irrigation and rain fed conditions an experiment was conducted at feshalam tea research station in fouman (guilan) during (2008-2010). in this study, line-source irrigation technique and the strip plot experiment on randomized complete block design was used. six levels of nitrogen, zero, ...
