This paper describes the performance, generated power flow distribution and redistribution for each power plant on the grid based on adapting load and weather forecasting data. Both load forecasting and weather forecasting are used for collecting predicting data which are required for optimizing the performance of the grid. The stability of each power systems on the grid highly affected by load...

Parker’s initial insights from 1958 provided a key causal link between the heating of the solar corona and the acceleration of the solar wind. However, we still do not know what fraction of the solar wind’s mass, momentum, and energy flux is driven by Parker-type gas pressure gradients, and what fraction is driven by, e.g., wave-particle interactions or turbulence. SOHO has been pivotal in brin...

Using improved, self-consistent analysis techniques, we determine the average solar wind charge state and elemental composition of nearly 40 ion species of He, C, N, O, Ne, Mg, Si, S, and Fe observed with the Solar Wind Ion Composition Spectrometer on Ulysses. We compare results obtained during selected time periods, including both slow solar wind and fast streams, concentrating on the quasi-st...

The British Isles benefits from dense meteorological observation networks, enabling insights into the still-unresolved effects of solar eclipse events on the near-surface wind field. The near-surface effects of the solar eclipse of 20 March 2015 are derived through comparison of output from the Met Office's operational weather forecast model (which is ignorant of the eclipse) with data from two...

Axial flow fan has been used for large amount of flow rate in air handling units of industrial application fields. The fan involves a shrouding duct as flow guidance for uniform flows. Pressure difference between before and ahead of rotating blades causes the flows movements. The case where the flow resistance such as a heat exchanger is located prior to the rotors is typical in-field model for...

Due to the continuous increment of the load demand, identification of weaker buses, improvement of voltage profile and power losses in the context of the voltage stability problems has become one of the major concerns for the larger, complex, interconnected power systems. The objective of this paper is to review the impact of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) controller in Wind generators...

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the aeromechanic performance and near wake characterstics of dual-rotor wind turbine (DRWT) models with co-rotating or counter-rotating configurations in comparison to a conventional single rotor wind turbine (SRWT) model in order to elucidate the underlying physics to explore/optimize design of wind turbines for higher power yield and better d...

The high opacity of He I λ10830 makes it an exceptionally sensitive probe of the inner wind geometry of accreting T Tauri stars. In this line blueshifted absorption below the continuum results from simple scattering of stellar photons, a situation which is readily modeled without definite knowledge of the physical conditions and recourse to multi-level radiative transfer. We present theoretical...

[1] During the period 1999–2002 there have been three instances, in May 1999, March 2002, and May 2002, respectively, when the solar wind densities at 1 AU dropped to abnormally low values (<0.1 cm ) for extended periods of time (12–24 h). These longlasting low-density anomalies observed at 1 AU are referred to as ‘‘solar wind disappearance events’’ and in this paper, we locate the solar source...

It is well known that the strongest and most frequent bora over the Croatian coast of the Adriatic Sea is found in the region of Senj (Figure 1) (e.g., Yoshino, 1976; Makjani}, 1978; Vu~eti}, 1991; Orli} et al., 1994; Penzar et al., 2001; Grubi{i}, 2004:, Dorman et al., 2006). According to field measurements (Yoshino, 1976), the strongest winds appear in the mountainous areas northeast of Senj,...
