This paper presents the aerodynamic design and economical evaluation of a 200 kW site specific wind turbine for the province of Semnan in Iran. By designing site specific wind turbines, the cost of energy which is calculated out of the annual energy production and also the cost of manufacturing the rotor are minimized. The aerodynamic design is based on the well-known blade element momentum...

In philosophy, there is an as yet unresolved discussion on whether there are different kinds of kinds and what those kinds are. In particular, there is a distinction between indifferent kinds, which are unaffected by observation and representation, and interactive kinds, which respond to being studied in ways that alter the very kinds under study. This is in essence a discussion on ontologies a...

The performance of a tunnel furnace and dryer in brick production was exergoenvironmentally assessed. real data factory Turkey with daily capacity 392 tons fired bricks were used the analysis. exergoenvironmental factor control volume calculated as 0.87. specific cost determined to be 559.55 €/h, 3.39 €cent/ kg 1.94 €cent/MJ. exergoeconomic environmental damage prevention obtained 0.41 € cent/M...

1. 10 per cent. atoxyl in blood incubated at 37 degrees C. for 1 hour gives rise to a solution that is much more than ten times as toxic as a 1 per cent. solution of atoxyl similarly incubated. 2. When the comparison is made after incubation for 3 hours instead of for 1 hour, the toxicity of the 10 per cent. solution is but slightly greater than ten times that of the 1 per cent., provided the r...

The assertion of Lucifer, that the pre-Adamite world was also peopled by rational beings much more intelligent than man, and proportionably powerful to the mammoth, etc., etc., is, of course, a poetical fiction to help him to make out his case. Lord Byron señala a unas lagunas bíblicas y las utiliza para cuestionar los principios de nuestra fe y debatir la naturaleza de la maldad. También, las ...

Repetition suppression (RS) is a reduction of neural response that is often observed when stimuli are presented more than once. Many functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have exploited RS to probe the sensitivity of cortical regions to variations in different stimulus dimensions; however, the neural mechanisms underlying fMRI-RS are not fully understood. Here we test the hypothe...

A method for measuring the volume of fluid available for the distribution of sodium (sodium space) by the use of its radioactive isotope (Na(24)) has been described and the accuracy of the method has been discussed. Simultaneous determinations of the plasma volume by means of the blue dye T-1824 and the volume of the extracellular fluid by employing radiosodium and sodium thiocyanate have been ...

In 1816, following the failure of his marriage and establishment a legal separation, Lord Byron left London for continental Europe. He finally settled in Italy longest period (1817–1823) before involving himself Greek struggle independence from Ottoman rule. would die at Missolonghi 1824, not any battle wound, but disease debility. This article examines constant traits habits dress, dandyism pr...
