the existing studies of threshing process of combine harvesters adopt the assumption of constant mass, which is contradictory to the phenomenon of separation of grains and short stalks in actual threshing process. therefore, the characteristics of threshing and separation are not accurately described. aiming at this problem, this study established the tangential-longitudinal threshing and separ...

In today’s VLSI system design, power consumption is gaining more attention as compared to performance and area. This is due to battery life in portable devices and operating frequency of the design. Power consumption mainly consists of static power, dynamic power, leakage power and short circuit power. Dynamic power is dominant among all which depends on many factors viz. power supply, load cap...

Power Consumption and Competitive Advantage Minimizing power consumption is one of the most critical design goals for portable wireless devices. Heat dissipation due to undesirable power requirements affects product reliability and product life. Most important, and one of the few things the average consumer understands, is the useable time of the device between battery charges. Longer operating...

Low-power wireless networks are quickly becoming a critical part of our everyday infrastructure. Power consumption is a critical concern, but power measurement and estimation is a challenge. We present Powertrace, which to the best of our knowledge is the first system for network-level power profiling of low-power wireless systems. Powertrace uses power state tracking to estimate system power c...

Wireless ad-hoc network has limited battery power. Energy consumption control is the main issue in a ad-hoc network. Node battery power is a precious resource that should be used in order to avoid the early termination of nodes. Node power consumption is reduced by vary transition time. Power control with transition time is proposed to control power consumption in mobile ad-hoc network. Simulat...

Power consumption of digital circuits has become a critical design parameter. As such, it is necessary that the system designer is able to estimate power consumption and correlate the results back to high level specifications. A gate level tool that estimates power consumption and correlates the results with functiona! modules and control states has been designed. This tool has produced estimat...

The fossil fuels consumption is rapidly growing due to increased water and electricity demands. An interconnected water-energy nexus is generally composed of thermal power plants, combined potable water and power (CWP) generation units, and desalination only processes. Hence, participation of hydro power plants in electricity generation facilities not only reduces the total fuel consumption of ...

This paper describes a custom design approach as applied to power management in an innovative course on rapid prototyping of computer systems at Carnegie Mellon. We emphasize the importance of the choice of user interface modalities on power consumption of wearable computers. The paper identifies the major components of power consumption in a wearable computer, and evaluates their respective co...

Due to limited resources, power consumption is a crucial characteristic of sensor node hardware and applications. Although many researchers contributed low power and energy aware applications, power consumption is still a limiting factor. As discovered by recent deployments, the sensor node lifetime is very often significantly shorter than expected. We present a model, which enables highly accu...

Adiabatic logic is used to minimize the energy loss during operation of the circuit. Using two-phase adiabatic static CMOS logic (2PASCL) the power consumption can be reduced. This paper compares the power consumption of Static Energy Recovery Full Adder(SERF) and the proposed full adder using two phase adiabatic static CMOS logic(2PASCL). The average power consumption of proposed full adder is...
