A microwave-assisted sol-gel method was used to synthesize (N, Fe)-codoped activated carbon (AC)/TiO2 photocatalyst for enhanced optical absorption in the visible light region. The prepared samples were characterized via X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, ultraviolet-visible...

Most of the wind power plants currently installed at North Sea are near to shore connected with the onshore grid through AC cable. AC transmission technology is proven and reliable, but there will be a need to switch from AC to DC transmission since large number of offshore power plants at longer distance to shore are expected to be installed by the end of 2020. Furthermore, to enhance the inte...

In this paper performance analysis of various hybrid reactive power compensators (RPC’s) at the inverter AC sides of a line commutated converter (LCC) based multi-terminal HVDC (MTDC) transmission system, feeding weak AC networks, is carried out to thoroughly gather the mechanisms of interactions between an HVDC system and weak AC systems. The hybrid compensator is realized by equally mixing th...

We have proposed a human-area networking technology that uses the surface of the human body as a data transmission path and uses an AC electric field signal below the resonant frequency of the human body. This technology aims to achieve a “touch and connect” intuitive form of communication by using the electric field signal that propagates along the surface of the human body, while suppressing ...

The ac conductance in granular insulating Co-ZrO2 thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition is systematically studied as a function of the Co volume content x. An absorption phenomenon at low frequencies that mimics the universal response of disordered dielectric materials is observed in the range of metal content below the Co percolation threshold xp 0.35 in the so-called dielectric regim...

ENHANCEMENT OF POWER SYSTEM STABILITY BY SIMULTANEOUS AC-DC POWER TRANSMISSION Dr. Sushil Kumar Principal Pragati college of Engg. & Management,Raipur [email protected] Abstract It is difficult to load extra high voltage (EHV) ac lines to their thermal limits as a sufficient margin is kept against transient instability.This paper proposed a model in which it will be possible to load these ...

Transmitting power at high voltage and in DC form instead of AC is a new technology proven to be economic and simple in operation which is HVDC transmission. The HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) technology is used to transmit electricity over long distances by overhead transmission lines or submarine cables. It is also used to interconnect separate power systems. A further development in this...

Abstract: This paper is focused on the discussion and comparison of characteristics and behavior of three low frequency ac (LFAC) transmission system configurations operating under the same control scheme and conditions to identify the most promising operation system for LFAC. Merits of LFAC over high voltage direct current (HVDC) are mentioned first. By changing power flow direction without au...

This paper presents voltage stability in an electrical network when connected by wind generators. Due to several advantages wind energy is the growing renewable energy. Nowadays, wind energy is penetrating into the conventional power network. Due to random variations in wind speed, the output power and terminal voltage fluctuates continuously. The influence of wind generators on the power quali...

The power distribution of nearly all major countries have accepted 3phase distribution as a standard. With increasing power requirements of instrumentation today even a small physics laboratory requires 3-phase supply. While physics students are given an introduction of this in passing, no experiment work is done with 3-phase supply due to the sheer possibility of accidents while working with s...
