BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Hemodialysis resource use-especially water and power, smarter processing and reuse of postdialysis waste, and improved ecosensitive building design, insulation, and space use-all need much closer attention. Regarding power, as supply diminishes and costs rise, alternative power augmentation for dialysis services becomes attractive. The first 12 months of a solar-assist...

the present paper is aimed at describing a “closed cycle” power plant schematic (soft, solar oxygen fuel turbine) with macroalgae (seaweed) cultivation in a pond, combustion of its organic matter in a fluidized bed boiler of rankine cycle and return of the combustion products to the pond to feed algae. the oxygen used for combustion is released to atmosphere in photosynthesis. as a renewable fu...

In 1995, Mayor and Queloz [5] detected for the first time a planet orbiting a nearby star (15.4 parsecs). Since then, the interest in the detection of extra-solar planets, in order to learn about the origin, evolution and composition of planetary systems, has been grown and at this moment more than 150 extra-solar planets have been found. Almost all of them have been discovered using indirect m...

The future construction of utility-scale solar power plants in Australia will present challenges to integrate these plants into the existing electricity industry. This paper considers the likely solar forecasting requirements to facilitate the integration of photovoltaic and concentrating solar thermal plants into the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM). Many market participants may be...

The scope of this paper is to evaluate and compare the potential of LS-PV(Large Scale Photovoltaic Power Plant) power generation systems in the southern region of Libya at Al-Kufra for both stationary and tracking systems. A Microsoft Excel-VBA program has been developed to compute slope radiation, dew-point, sky temperature, and then cell temperature, maximum power output and module efficiency...

The stability of power production in photovoltaics (PV) power plants is an important issue for large-scale gridconnected systems. This is because it affects the control and operation of the electrical grid. An efficient forecasting model is proposed in this paper to predict the next-day solar photovoltaic power using the Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) and Bayesian Regularization (BR) algorithms and r...

Concentrated Solar Power plants are complex systems subjected to quite sensitive variations of the steam production profile and external disturbances, thus advanced control techniques that ensure system stability and suitable performance criteria are required. In this work, a multi-objective H∞ robust controller is designed and applied to the power control of a Concentered Solar Power plant com...

As Rosetta was orbiting comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, the Ion and Electron Sensor detected negative particles with angular distributions like those of the concurrently measured solar wind protons but with fluxes of only about 10% of the proton fluxes and energies of about 90% of the proton energies. Using well-known cross sections and energy-loss data, it is determined that the fluxes and en...

in this paper, a novel control method for photovoltaic converter connection to the national gridis presented, so in addition to the injection control by solar arrays to the grid, this method cancompensate reactive power and harmonics in the load current. the system will be connected inparallel between the grid and load. the proposed system supplies all load power consumption(including active po...

PLTS has enormous potential in Indonesia, especially Java-Bali, which accounts for 70% of Indonesia's electricity needs. In this study, a simulation the system design was carried out using hybrid microgrid as power supply PVsyst software to simulate performance. Power load requirements are adjusted specifications electric vehicles. Meteonorm meteorological data were compared with field adjust v...
