in this paper, the 10-minutes period measured wind speed data at different heights (10 m, 30 m, and 40 m) are presented for khvaf, which is one of the major counties with high wind potential in khorasan provinces in iran. to the author’s knowledge, there hasn’t been any assessment works in the mentioned site. from the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the weibull fu...

The laser cutting parameters are dependent on the beam characteristics, the cutting rate required, the composition and thickness of the material to be cut, and the desired cut edge quality. The laser cutting process and cut quality depend upon the proper selection of laser and workpiece parameters. Deficiencies in cutting quality may be related to the slow process drifts and disturbances that a...

Induction generators (IGs) are becoming important day by day in wind energy conversion. As such the numbers of IGs in a power system are increasing hence posing power quality problems. When large numbers of IGs are switched on or switched off from a circuit give rise to transients in the power system. In this paper authors tried to explore the effect of machine parameters on starting transients...

Induction motor is the most popular load in the industry, it is very important to study about the effects of voltage quality on induction motor performance. One of the most important voltage quality problems in power system is voltage unbalance. This paper evaluates and compares two methods including finite element method (FEM) and equivalent electrical circuit simulation for investigation ...

overall energy efficiency (oee) is an important indicator of energy consumption in tillage operations. tillage energy was studied objectivity to accurately measure the oee of mf399-4wd tractor. the tractor was equipped with different types of sensors to measure and calibrate the required data including: fuel consumption, actual forward speed, wheel speed and slippage, engine speed, draft and dr...

The femtocell concept aims to combine fixed-line broadband access with mobile telephony using the deployment of low-cost, low-power third generation (3G) base stations in the subscribers' homes. While the self-configuration of femtocells is a plus, it can limit the quality of users and reduce the efficiency of the network, based on outdated allocation parameters such as signal power level. To t...

The flicker and harmonics generated by electric arc furnaces present a problem that is well known to both the steel industry and electrical utilities. This paper presents a method to compensate for measurement errors introduced by current and voltage transformers and anti-aliasing filters in a power quality measurement system. Dynamic compensation may be performed in real time using digital fil...
