Cement producers are large consumers of thermal and electrical energy, which on a global level are only available at steadily increasing costs. Efforts to reduce demands by using higher effi ciency equipment and substituting fuels and raw materials to lower production costs have been addressed in recent years. These changes have introduced constraints that must now be managed to secure the requ...

Abstract: Electrical sensitivity of a boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) was examined toward (C3H4) molecule by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G (d) level, and it was found that the adsorption energy (Ead) of methylacetylene (C3H4) the pristine nanotubes is a bout -1.78kcal/mol. But when nanotube have been doped with Si and Al atomes, the adsorption energy of me...

Abstract: Electrical sensitivity of a boron nitride nanotube (BNNT) was examined toward pyrrole (C5H6N) molecule by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G (d) level, and it was found that the adsorption energy (Ead) of pyrrole on the pristine nanotubes is a bout -16.37kcal/mol. But when nanotube have been doped with Si and Al atom...

In this paper an optimal controller is proposed for a self-balancing electrical vehicle called Segway PT. This vehicle has one platform and two wheels on the sides and the rider stands on the platform. A handlebar, as a navigator, is attached to the body of Segway, with which the rider controls the vehicle. Since Segway uses electrical energy produced by batteries, resource consumption manageme...

the use of renewable energy in power generation and sudden changes in load and fault in power transmission lines  may cause a voltage drop in the system and challenge the reliability of the system. one way to compensate the changing nature of renewable energies in the short term without the need to disconnect loads or turn on other plants, is the use of renewable energy storage. the use of ener...

concerns related to climate change and security of energy supply is pushing various countries to make strategic energy planning decisions. in this regard, energy system modelling is an appropriate method to find out the utilization of current declining non-renewable energy resources and other possible scenarios. consequently, it is available to consider various aspects of energy system decision...

The application of conductive coatings on ferritic stainless steel can decrease electrical conductivity. Theaim of this research was to investigate the electrical conductivity of cobalt coated AISI 430 ferritic stainlesssteel by pack cementation technique. Coated coupons were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Electrical conductivity of the coated substrates was measured as a fun...

Abstract: The big share of electrical breakdown in electrical devices failure among other factors is caused by multitasking such as electrical insulation, mechanical support, energy dissipation, Energy storage, etc. which brings many attentions to lifetime estimation of said insulation material. Up to now, there was no-general theory had been suggested for lifetime estimation of mentioned insul...
