The impact of different energy storages on power systems has become more important due to the development of energy storage technologies. This paper optimizes the stochastic scheduling of a wind-based multiple energy system (MES) and evaluates the operation of the proposed system in combination with electrical and thermal demand-response programs and the three-mode CAES (TM-CAES) unit. The prop...

introduction: mass production of natural enemies has been considered a necessity for biological control programs. most beneficial insects have a relatively short shelf-life, so suppliers do not have a sufficient number of biocontrol agents. the development of storage techniques for biocontrol agents provides flexibility and efficiency in mass production. cold storage by prolonging insect develo...

many cell lines, when cultured under proper conditions, can form three dimensionalstructures called multicellular spheroids. these spheroids resemble in vivo tumor models in severalaspects. therefore, studying growth characteristics and behavior of spheroids is beneficial inunderstanding the behavior of tumors under various experimental conditions. in this work, we havestudied the growth proper...

with the increasing installed capacity of desalination, the greenhouse gas emission for generating the required energy to power the desalination plants is also becoming the focus of attention in the world community. domestic reverse osmosis membranes have been very successful technology especially in the developing world to provide safe drinking water. the novel concept of photovoltaic powered ...

UNLABELLED Thermal sensation has a large influence on thermal comfort, which is an important parameter for building performance. Understanding of thermal sensation may benefit from incorporating the physiology of thermal reception. The main issue is that humans do not sense temperature directly; the information is coded into neural discharge rates. This manuscript describes the development of a...

Chinese hamster ovary cells cultured in vitro were exposed to hyperthermic treatment at 43 degrees C or 45 degrees C. Depletion of 99.5% of the intracellular glutathione (GSH) by addition of 0.1 mM diethylmaleate (DEM) increased thermal sensitivity. This effect, however, was dependent upon oxygen tension. Decreasing the oxygen tension reduced the effect. Thermal cytotoxicity was further augment...

The strategy of sustainable development is one of the two important strategies for Chinese economic development. The present small scale thermal power plants cause much pollution, and consume too much energy, so they are being confronted with the crises of existence and management. Accordingly, it is urgent for small scale thermal power plants to carry out study on the crisis management about t...

The thermal management of lighting electronics is for a great deal supported by simulation tools. Results strongly depend amongst others on the component models, the modelling of radiation heat transport and the value of the component heat production. This paper gives a survey of how these topics are dealt with in a product engineering environment and the directions for improvement.
