This paper discusses a study of the impacts of ambient temperature gradients along electric power transmission lines on power transfer capability limits. This investigation is performed through the use of novel multi-segment, non-uniform, temperature-dependent line models, which are used to capture the non-uniformity of line parameters caused by ambient temperature variations. For demonstration...

In this paper, we investigate the energy problem of monitoring sensors on high-voltage power transmission lines and propose a wireless charging scheme for a Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) sensor tag to solve a commercial efficiency problem: the maintenance-caused power outage. Considering the environmental influences on power transmission lines, a self-powered wireless energy relay is de...

The philosophical groundwork of Gilles Deleuze is examined for its relevance for narrative practice in therapy and conflict resolution. Deleuze builds particularly on Foucault's analytics of power as "actions upon actions" and represents power relations diagrammatically in terms of lines of power. He also conceptualizes lines of flight through which people become other. These concepts are explo...

Electrical energy is transported from the generating point to the point of use through interconnected transmission lines .The flow of electricity through the transmission lines can be effectively and efficiently controlled by using interline power flow controllers instead of going for a new transmission lines.The construction of a new transmission lines is increasingly difficult because of vari...

A complete methodology is employed to determine the transmission characteristics of low-voltage/broadband over power lines (LV/BPL) channels associated with underground power distribution networks, in the light of the multiconductor transmission line (MTL) theory. The established bottom-up approach, already used to treat overhead and underground MV/BPL transmission, is extended to analyze BPL t...

High-voltage power lines can be quite easily mapped using laser scanning data, because vegetation close to high-voltage lines is typically removed and also because the power lines are located higher off the ground in contrast to regional networks and lower voltage networks. On the contrary, lower voltage power lines are located in the middle of dense forests, and it is difficult to classify pow...

In this paper basic CAM (Content Addressable memory) cell performs match and mismatch operation. CAM provides fast data search operation and it is also used as search engines. The CAM cell comprises of NAND cell block of array (1x8) and NOR cell block of array (4x32). Here in this paper 45nm technology (transistor sizing) with the supply voltage of 1V is used. The data stored in the CAM cell wi...

Fuel cells belong to an avant-garde technology family for a wide variety of applications including micro-power, transportation power, stationary power for buildings and other distributed generation applications. The first objective of this contribution is to find a suitable reduced model of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC). The derived reduced model is then used to design a state estimator. I...
