in this study, using sound created by wheat grain passing through a pipe, wheat flow rate was measured. the developed device consists of a hopper, metering device, sound sensor, delivery tube, dc motor and power supply. several wheat mass flow rates were tested and the sound signal created by the passage of the grain through the discharge tube was measured and transferred to a computer using da...

A comprehensive model for stochastic load flow analysis in electric power systems is proposed for the purpose of estimating the statistics of bus voltage magnitudes, circuit currents and transmission line power flows. The proposed method is driven by a realistic nonconforming stochastic electric load model, defined in terms of few independent stochastic processes; it is based on the quadratized...

The ill-conditioned load flow algorithm is important to power plan and analysis on security, stability in power system. The new ill-conditioned load flow algorithm based on node lopsided powers is proposed by transforming power flow equations to non-linear programming. It has the all-right astringency arose from the beginning value and no feasible solution in the power flow calculating progress...

Stability is an important constraint in power system operation. Often trial and error heuristics are used that can be costly and imprecise. A new methodology that eliminates the need for repeated simulation to determine a transiently secure operating point is presented. The theoretical development is straightfforward: dynamic equations are converted to numerically equivalent algebraic equations...
