What is an Alternator? How does it Work?
Electricity in your car is as important as it is in your home. All the vehicles have a dedicated device, alternator, which runs all the electronic parts. Find out what exactly an alternator is how does it work to provide electricity to our vehicle. What is an alternator? The alternator is an electric generator that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, particularly in the ...

Project - Spatial Model in Hagichon
Partially funded by the water authority of Israel Decision Makers have started the implementation of the spatial model concept that has been developed in the SAFEWATER project in the city of Jerusalem. The Israeli Ministry of Energy funds this project. It includes the development of a monitoring system that alerts when the performance of Solar inverters is deteriorating. Currently, the pilot ...

How to Monitor Data Centre Power Usage
There is now a huge desire amongst IT and Facilities professionals to adopt a suitable power management strategy, but implementation with existing tools can be extremely disruptive and problematic. Unless a new data centre is being built from scratch, installation of intelligent PDUs and inline power monitoring devices will ultimately result in considerable downtime and cost. However, a solution ...

An innovative application of activity–based costing and management in decision support modelling
The purpose of this article is to introduce a new cost management and decision support model. The current cost monitoring models act as real–time cost calculators rather than as decision support tools. The model presented in this study can monitor and analyse the costs in real–time. This will allow for timely and effective marketing and operations decision–making, e.g., selling price, marketing ...

A novel particle swarm optimisation self-regulating stand-alone wave energy conversion scheme
The paper presents a novel stabilisation scheme system for a wave energy converter (WEC) using permanent magnet linear generator (PMLG) connected to a six-pulse diode rectifier. The proposed controller of WEC-battery renewable energy system is based on multi-objective particle swarm optimisation (MOPSO) technique. The optimisation algorithm is implemented to control a novel low cost dynamic AC ...

A new microturbine-based dispersed generation scheme
Almost all of the commercial microturbine-based dispersed generation systems today are composed of a high-speed permanent-magnet alternator and a diode rectifier-PWM inverter pair. A dispersed generation scheme made up of a microturbine, an induction generator, and a diode rectifier-PWM inverter pair is introduced in this paper. A complete model for the self-excited squirrel-cage induction ...

Modelling of DSTATCOM for distribution system
This paper deals with the simulation of distribution static synchronous compensator (DSTATCOM) for improving power quality of a distribution system feeding linear as well as non-linear loads. Nowadays, there are an increasing number of non-linear loads which inject harmonics into the system. A three-phase insulated gate bipolar transistor- (IGBT-)based current controlled voltage source inverter ...
