Currently, more and more research shows fluid around earthquake source areas, which plays an important role in the process of earthquake preparation and generation. However, there is considerable controversy over the source of fluid in the deep crust. As for the problem of heat around earthquake source areas, different models have been proposed to explain the stress heat flow paradox. Among them, the dynamic weakening model has been thought to be the key to solving the heat flow paradox issue. After large earthquakes, energy distribution is directly related to friction heat. It is of timely and important practical significance to immediately implement deep drilling in-site surveying to gain understanding of fluid, friction heat and energy distribution during earthquake generation. The latest international progress in fluid, heat and energy distribution research has been reviewed in this paper which will bring important inspiration for the understanding of earthquake preparation and occurrence.展开更多

The low level jet is blowing above the near-surface layer during nighttime and is decoupled from the surface. Nowadays, some studies showed the possibility to use the sub-jet wind at levels higher than 90 m as a source of energy in this area. In the present work, the wind turbines, with hub heights situated at 150 m and blade extremities at 150 ± 60 m, were used to make an economic study of wind energy potential in Sahel. Thus, monthly wind power was determined by two methods. The first involved the wind distributions directly observed. The second was based on the Weibull distributions which were fitted to the data. Day and night were compared. Results showed that this jet was an attractive source of energy provided if huge-capacity energy storage was used. So, the energy stored at night could be restored during the daytime, when the demand is highest. An economic study was done to estimate the number of wind turbines needed to satisfy the Niamey demand. The cost was found reasonably cheap relative to that of other renewable energy sources.展开更多

With proper uniform input voltage distribution control, near maximum use of the power sources is achieved by employing only one MPT (maximum power tracking) controller instead of multiple MPT controllers dedicated for their respective power sources. Provided that the maximum power point voltages of the input power sources are similar, the resulting system architecture offers near-maximum power transfer with a lower parts count. A feasibility study using computer simulation has successfully validated two SIPO power architectures and their control concepts for optimum power transfer.展开更多

Mean values are recorded and stored for every hour using a data logger. For accounting wind turbine generator (WTG.) tower height, data recorded from S60 anemometer at 60 m height is used for analysis purpose. This paper analyzes the probability distribution of wind speed data recorded by maharashtra energy development agency (MEDA) wind farm at Ahmednagar (India). The main objective is to validate the wind energy probability by using probability distribution function (PDF) of available wind potential. The energy generated from wind for any time interval is equal to the area tinder power curve multiplied by time in hours for that time interval. To estimate the wind energy probability, hourly wind speed data tbr one year interval is selected. Weibull distribution is adopted in this study to best fit the wind speed data. The scale and shape paranleters are estimated by using maximum likelihood method. The goodness of fit tests based on the probability density function (PDF) is conducted to show that the distribution adequately fits the data. It is found from the curve fitting test that, although the two distributions are all suitable for describing the probability distribution of wind speed data, the two-parameter weibull distribution is more appropriate than the lognormal distribution.展开更多

The numerical simulation results are verified by experiments, based on this, the velocity and temperature distribution of three-dimensional displacement ventilation system with single and double heat sources are studied. Velocity and temperature fields under two different cases of heat source are analyzed and compared. The numerical results show that there are three layers in vertical temperature fields of displacement ventilation system with single or double heat sources, and the vertical temperature distribution of single heat source is different from that of double heat sources. When indoor load is large, the comfort requirement of people indoor can't be satisfied with displacement ventilation system only, thus an additional refrigeration system is necessary. Furthermore, under the condition of two heat sources, the displacement ventilation parameters can't be computed simply according to single heat source inlet parameters, therefore the interaction between heat sources should be considered.展开更多
