An analysis of Grenada's power sector and energy resources: a role for renewable energy technologies?
Presently, Grenada's power sector is fully dependent on fossil fuel imports for meeting the country's electricity demand. Electric utilities in Small Island Developing States (SIDS), in general, face high cost of electricity generation due to diseconomies of scale in production, consumption and logistical aspects. Grenada's private power monopoly is no exception and the high cost of import ...

Cavitation and its types
Hydrodynamic cavitation is a process of generation of cavities (bubbles) filled with gas and vapor dissolved in fluid. The cavities appear when fluid flows around obstacles or vice versa, the obstacles (blades) move in liquid. The cavities explode into tiny bubbles, which can burst under certain conditions. The burst bubbles release local pressure up to 103 Pa, with subsequent jet formation 700 ...
