The paper deals with the design optimization of voltage source inverter (VSI) fed squirrel cage induction motor. A set of nine independent variables were selected and to make the machine feasible and practically acceptable, certain constraints were imposed o…
This study investigates the effect of the various process conditions such as temperature, extraction duration, particle size and solute/solvent ratio on the seed oil solvent extractions using ethanol, n-hexane and methanol/chloroform (50:50) as solvents from…
The shortfalls of fossil fuel, rapid depletion of reserves, nonrenewable, non-biodegradable, low lubricity, emissions of poisonous gases have resulted in the search for alternative energy source to fill the gap. This research work focused on synthesis, engin…
Statistical Quality Control (SQC) analysis deals with quantitative data; it is also a scientific method of analyzing masses of numerical data so as to summarize the essential features and relationship of data in order to generalize from the analysis pattern …
This work addresses the gully erosion problems of the Nanka/Agulu area of Anambra State, Nigeria. Field reconnaissance and observation visits were made to five (5) major erosion sites in the study axis between the months of November, 2011 and February, 2015 …
VARIOUS TYPES OF INSULATORS USED IN POWER SYSTEM FOR SAFE OPERATIONS OF THE TRANSMISSION LINES
PUBLISHEDOverhead bare conductors on steel towers or concrete poles are utilized in transmission and distribution of bulky electric power. These conductors are bare and do not have any insulated coating over them. To ensure safe operation of the lines, a necessary cl…
