MODELLING THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOUR OF A WIND TURBINE
The WIND TURBINE accomplishes a two action process in absorbing the energy from the wind and delivering the energy in various forms through its rotor. Differential equations have important Engineering applications in modelling a physical system, that is, setting up mathematical models to determine the behaviour of the turbine. We consider the forces on the [...]

EFFECTIVE PARADIGM FOR DIRECT CURRENT (DC) DISTRIBUTION IN ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTING SYSTEM USING LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LEDs)
Posted on 23 September 2011
In this paper, we suggest a model of direct current (DC) power flow distribution for light-emitting diodes (LEDs), in compliance from the behavioral and economical changes in Energy Consumption. The general scientific community believes that light emitting diodes (LEDs) will play a fundamental role in architectural lighting system’s applications. There is no question that LED [...] Continue Reading

INTEGRATED POWER SUPPLY’S DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION PRACTICE FOR SOLAR LIGHTING APPLICATIONS
Posted on 23 September 2011
The characteristics of an integrated power supply for Solar lighting applications, require that a variation of input voltage of within a certain percentage, be regulated to a predetermined output voltage to an appreciable efficiency. This paper will focus on the solar lighting’s integrated power supply design and construction practices, intended to provide lighting in rural [...] Continue Reading
