in most industrial zones, electric energy is one of the most important energy sources. since electrical motors are the main energy consumers of industrial factories, consumption optimization in these motors can be considered as a main option related to energy saving. one very effective way to reduce the consumption of these equipment is to use a motor speed controllers or drives. since the loss...

this paper studies the modeling and optimization of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of eggplant production using artificial neural network and multi-objective genetic algorithm in guilan province of iran. results showed that the highest share of energy consumption belongs to diesel fuel (49.24%); followed by nitrogen (33.30%). the results indicated that a total energy input of 13910.67 ...

a preliminary design of a polygeneration system (combined cooling-heating-power plant with a desalination unit), is proposed for a tourist resort located on the spanish coast. the well-known trigenerationconcept is enhanced to the included production of desalted water, considering for the purpose three different options: reverse osmosis (rodp), multi-effect (medp) and a combination of rodp and ...

in the last quarter of the century, a substantial amount of research work has been conducted on optimization of energy consumption by refrigeration systems and on proper design and construction of household refrigerator-freezers. the importance of such energy optimization schemes stems from the environmental impacts of freon (r-12) used as the working refrigerant in household refrigerator – fre...

the limitation of energy resources and its considerable consumption growth in iran has doubled the necessity of optimization and conservation of energy in the country compared to the average consumption rate of energy in the world and also because of high consumption rate's adverse effects in the environment. heating systems are among the main consumers of energy and using a high efficienc...

in this paper, trajectory generation for the 4 dof arm of surena iii humanoid robot with the purpose of optimizing energy and avoiding a moving obstacle is presented. for this purpose, first, kinematic equations for a seven dof manipulator are derived. then, using the lagrange method, an explicit dynamics model for the arm is developed. in the next step, in order to generate the desired traject...

Wind power has been widely considered in recent years as an available and a clean renewable energy source. The cost of wind energy production is currently the main issue, and increasing the size of wind turbines can reduce wind energy production costs. Hence, megawatt wind turbines are being rapidly developed in recent years. In this paper, an aerodynamic analysis of the NREL 5MW turbine is...
