In electric arc furnace steelmaking units, the essential parameters are reducing price, increasing production and decreasing environmental pollution. Electric arc furnaces are the largest users of electric energy in industry. The most important techniques that can be used to reduce the electric energy consumption in electric arc furnaces are scrap preheating, stirring, use of burners and hot ch...

Many perceive electric vehicles (EVs) to be ecoenvironmentally sustainable because they are free of emissions of toxic and greenhouse gases to the environment. However, few have questioned the sustainability of the electric power required to drive these vehicles. This paper presents an in-depth study that indicates that massive infusion of EVs to our society in a short time span will likely cre...

in this paper, numerical investigation of a flat passive micromixer with heterogeneous surface properties that the flow through it, is driven by the electroosmotic flow have been presented. the governing equations, which consist of a laplace equation for the distribution of external electric potential, a poisson equation for the distribution of electric double layer potential, modified navier-s...

Painters of the electric power industry, IT has accelerated the development of a smart grid environment. Of Electric Power Industry in the server, watt-hour meter, modem, network, and remote metering and remote meter reading, remote control, and demand is adjustable. Through server optimization techniques to obtain the information of the remote terminal server is installed as a regional, if you...

Three phase induction motors are widely used in industrial, commercial and residential systems, because of their ruggedness, simplicity and relatively low cost. Approximately 65% of the electricity consumed in industry is used to drive electrical motors. Therefore, the efficiency and reliability of induction motors operation is of major importance, in order to improve the energy efficiency in i...

In this paper‎, ‎the static bending‎, ‎free vibration‎, ‎and dynamic response of functionally graded‎ ‎piezoelectric beams have been carried out by finite element method‎‎under different sets of mechanical‎, ‎thermal‎, ‎and electrical‎ ‎loadings‎. ‎The beam with functionally graded piezoelectric material‎ ‎(FGPM) is assumed to be graded across the thickness with a simple‎ ‎power law distributio...

The past several years have seen marked changes in the institutional structures of the electric power industry in many countries. In most cases the driving forces for change have come from the governments. Often the objective is to introduce more competition and to increase private sector ownership of the electric supply industry. The overall aim regardless of the drivers, is to reduce the pric...
