Theoretical and Experimental Comparison of Total Harmonic Distortion Factors for the Evaluation of Harmonic and Interharmonic Pollution of Grid-Conne…
2006
Grid connected photovoltaic systems are increasingly used in electrical distribution systems. However, they inject distorted currents. Therefore special attention must be paid to harmonic and interharmonic measurements. The new edition of IEC 61000-4-7 introduces the concept of harmonic and interharmonic groups, which implies new expressions for Total Harmonic Distortion factors. In the paper a theoretical and experimental comparison is made between the different total harmonic distortion factors in order to show which of the currently defined distortion factors is best-suited to detect harmonic and interharmonic pollution. Experimental tests were carried out first by means of a calibrator …
A Time-Domain Approach Based on the IEEE Std 1459-2000 for the detection of Loads Producing Harmonic Distortion
2008
This paper presents a novel strategy for the detection of harmonic sources in power systems for both the single-phase and the three-phase systems. It is based on the IEEE Std. 1459-2000 approach and it is based only on the separation of the fundamental components from the harmonic content of voltage and current. The proposed strategy do not require any spectral analysis of voltages and currents and it can be entirely implemented in the time domain. In the paper, the formulation of the novel approach is given and some simulation results are presented.
An enhanced approach based on IEEE 1459 for the detection of disturbing loads in distorted and unbalanced three-phase power systems
2009
This paper presents an enhanced approach for the detection of disturbing loads in distorted and/or unbalanced three-phase power systems in both cases of three and four-wires. It is based on the IEEE Std. 1459-2000 effective apparent power resolution and it requires only the separation of the fundamental components of voltage and current from the remaining harmonic content. In the paper, the formulation of the novel approach is given and some simulation results are presented.
Theoretical and experimental analysis of photonic structures for fluorescent concentrators with increased efficiencies
2008
In this study we present a theoretical and experimental analy- sis of the application of photonic band stop filters on top of photovoltaic fluorescent concentrators in order to increase the photon collection efficiency. The light guiding effect of the fluorescent concentrator relies on total internal reflection. The escape cone of total internal reflection is their major loss mechanism. Our ray tracing simulation allows to calculate the beneficial effect of photonic band stop reflection filters, which reduce these losses, and to simulate the angular distribu- tion of the light trapped in the concentrator. We present simula- tions of the optical properties of 1D and 3D photonic structures an…
Early life stress programming of NG2+ glia transcriptome alters functional properties of voltage gated sodium (Nav) channels and cognitive performance
2020
AbstractThe precise mechanisms underlying the detrimental effects of early life stress (ELS) on adult mental health remain still elusive. To date, most studies have exclusively targeted neuronal populations and not considered neuron-glia crosstalk as a crucially important element for the integrity of stress-related brain function. Here, we have investigated the impact of ELS on a glial subpopulation with unique properties in brain homeostasis, the NG2+ cells. ELS shifted the NG2+ transcriptome towards more mature stages, and these transcriptional effects were dependent on stress-induced glucocorticoids. The functional relevance of one candidate gene, Scn7a, could be confirmed by an increase…
Current-Based Measurement Technique for High Sensitivity Detection of Resistive Bridges With External Balancing Through Control Voltages
2017
We present a novel approach based on differential measurements of dc currents with very high sensitivity suitable for the detection of very small variations of resistors in Wheatstone full-bridge configurations. External control voltages allow for the compensation of the bridge unbalancing avoiding the need of changing its elements so making the solution suitable for integrated sensor systems. The proposed current-based measurement technique has been implemented through three different circuits, in transimpedance configuration and without the use of any further amplification stage, employing only two active blocks that allow for a very high integration level. The main characteristics of the…
Energy efficiency improvement in hospital buildings, based on the example of a selected type of hospital facility in Poland
2019
Abstract Energy demand in hospitals is of highly diverse nature: heat energy, cool energy and electricity. A guarantee of energy supply is required to ensure continuity of medical procedures. Taking care of the lowest possible costs of hospital operations, special attention should be paid to energy efficiency of the installations used in the hospital buildings. The paper presents an analysis of energy demand for heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting in an example hospital in Poland. The selected object was considered a reference as it was built according to a repetitive construction plan, according to which several dozen other hospitals were built in Poland. On the basis of data from 2…
Voltammetric Investigation on Uranyl Sorption by Alginate Based Material. Influence of Hydrolysis and pH Dependence
2015
The removal of U(VI) as uranyl (UO22+) from aqueous solutions was investigated by sorption onto alginate based material. The hydrolysis of uranyl ion was always taken into account in the calculations of free (22UO) ion in aqueous solution, in the experimental pH range considered, as well as the acid-base properties of alginate polymer. The sorption process follows a pseudo-second order kinetic model and the sorption rate decreases when the pH value increases. In addition to the classical Langmuir and Freundlich models, the equilibrium data were fitted by using a modified multi-component equilibrium model, never tested before. Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV) and Inductively Coupled Plas…
Aflatoxinas, tricotecenos de tipo A y hongos productores en maíz y avena. Nuevos antifúngicos y su impacto en salud
2021
Los hongos filamentosos están ampliamente distribuidos en la naturaleza y existen especies causantes de infecciones en el hombre, animales o plantas, o productores de micotoxinas que pueden ocasionar intoxicaciones agudas o crónicas. Los hongos toxigénicos pertenecen principalmente a los géneros Aspergillus, Fusarium y Penicillium. El cambio climático facilita la adaptación de especies toxigénicas a nuevas condiciones de estrés térmico/hídrico, lo cual afecta a su distribución geográfica en cultivos básicos, como los cereales. Ello facilita la dominancia de las especies mejor adaptadas, lo que se traduce en la emergencia de ciertas micotoxinas en los cereales como las aflatoxinas (AF) o tri…
