A wind farm is a collection of wind turbines built in an area to provide electricity. Wind power is a renewable energy resource and an alternative to non-renewable fossil fuels. In this paper impact of wind farms in power system reliability is investigate and a new procedure for reliability assessment of wind farms in HL1 level is proposed. In proposed procedure, application of Fuzzy – Markov f...

This paper is an attempt to Numerical Modeling and Experimental Study of Air Flow in the Yazdi Wind-Towers. Wind Towers has been known as one of the most effective climatic elements in Iranian traditional architecture. This paper is an attempt to evaluating Yazdi wind-tower to discussion the two main questions: 1. What is the role of Orientation of wind-towers span, regarding to climate and he...

We present observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) within the supernova remnant G0.9+0.1. At Chandra’s high resolution, the PWN has a clear axial symmetry; a faint X-ray point source lying along the symmetry axis possibly corresponds to the pulsar itself. We argue that the nebular morphology can be explained in terms of a torus of emission in the pulsar’s...

We show that the climate phenomena of El Niño and La Niña arise naturally as states of macrovariables when our recent causal feature learning framework (Chalupka et al., 2015, 2016) is applied to micro-level measures of zonal wind (ZW) and sea surface temperatures (SST) taken over the equatorial band of the Pacific Ocean. The method identifies these unusual climate states on the basis of the re...

The manufacturing of long lengths of Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox (Bi2212) wire has led to the development of high-field magnets at low temperature. Both react-and-wind and wind-and-react manufacturing of magnets, however, have significant drawbacks that limit the performance of the conductor in magnet form. In this letter, an alternative approach to magnet manufacturing, react–wind–sinter, is proposed to avo...

15N-labeled fertilizer was applied to Sorghum at different rates (0, 100 kg N.ha -1 ) to 1m2 microplots and with two kind of water (well water “WW” and treated wastewater “TWW”) to Sorghum grown in field during 1997 and 1999. Increases in DM production, N uptake and 15 NRF were observed with TWW. About 17% and 36% of the 15Nfertilizer were recovered in the crop with TWW in 1997 and 1999, respec...

With large expansion plans for the offshore wind turbine industry there has never been a greater need for effective operations and maintenance. The two main problems with the current operations and maintenance of an offshore wind turbine are the cost and availability. In this work a simulation model has been produced of the maintenance process for a wind turbine with the aim of developing a pro...

Young supernova remnants that contain pulsar wind nebulae provide diagnostics for both the inner part of the supernova and the interaction with the surrounding medium, providing an opportunity to relate these objects to supernova types. Among observed young nebulae, there is evidence for a range of supernova types, including Type IIP (Crab Nebula and SN 1054) and Type IIb/IIn/IIL (G292.0+1.8).
