CHAPTER TWO REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 Theoretical Framework In the preceding sections, the study variables were introduced and their hypothesized association, illustrated using a conceptual framework wherewith hypothetical statements of bivariate relationships were drawn. This section attempts a discussion on related concepts, literature, research and findings of previous studies as postulated by other scholars. Hence the theoretical framework for this study is confined to studies and theories

1) used in combination with three-phase ac to dc diode rectifiers is presented. It is shown that by using proposed switching network in three-phase ac to dc boost converter, zero switching losses are obtained while maintaining a unity input power factor. Active network capacitor, Cs, diodes D7, and D8, maintain a zero voltage during turn-off of Q1, and Q2, Capacitor, Cs, discharges through the boost inductors of the circuit thus limiting the rate of rise of current during turn-on. Moreover, the advantage

Fuzzy Logic Technique for PQ Improvement by UPQC for Renewable Energy Recourse’s 1BJ SHIVA RAMA KRISHNA RAO, PG STUDENT, BRILLIANT GROUP OF INSTITUTIONS, HYD 2O SWATHI, PG STUDENT, BRILLIANT GROUP OF INSTITUTIONS, HYD 3B. NAGI REDDY, ASST.PROF, BRILLIANT GROUP OF INSTITUTIONS, HYD ABSTRACT: -- In this a fuzzy logic control technique has been proposed for power quality improvement by using UPQC The UPQC is controlled to regulate the WF terminal voltage, and to mitigate voltage fluctuations at

• Viento Funding II, Inc. (“Viento” or the “Borrower”) owns controlling interest in a portfolio of three operating wind power generating plants (the “Projects”) located in Nebraska, New Mexico, and Texas. The Projects have an aggregate net capacity of 361 MW and achieved COD between December 2005 and April 2009. The Projects are fully contracted under three Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). Each of the PPAs has a 20-year term with the earliest expiring in December 2025. The energy off-takers are

The potential for a supply shortage is further exacerbated by the high proportion of electricity supplied by hydro power in New Zealand. Historic low storage capacity of many hydro plants attributed to both lack of foresight and environmental impact entails that the plants sometimes offer at low cost as they need to continuously cycle the water. A wet year will result in low costs, and a system flush with hydro power that might contribute to thermal generation running at margins and susceptible to

Item CD-RISC scale from 160 employees of 12 IT firms located in Chandigarh tricity region. The result of exploratory principal component factor analysis with varimax rotation and Confirmatory Factor Analysis verified the original five factor structure as given by Connor and Davidson (2003). In this study 74% of variance was jointly explained by the five factors. The result supported the dimensionality, reliability (α = 0.85) and validity of the CD-RISC scale for measuring the IT Executives resilience

Executive summary: fletcher building is a leading infrastructure and building materials manufacturer and general construction. They began their company in 1909 with the construction of a timber weatherboard house in Dunedin, NZ. The head office of the company is in Penrose, Auckland. The company is very big and there are near about 18,800 employees are working globally. Fletcher Building Limited announced a new organization structure and changes in several executive leadership roles. The changes

7-ACA from waste carbohydrate showed the possibility of industrialization. Then, various factors of the process, governing the efficiency of process, were investigated to maximize the economics. 3.2. Factorial design of process and evaluation of economics Full factorial analysis was performed to investigate the major factors concerned with the economics. The major key factors were listed, and the values of factors were coded. The center points of coded values were set as follows: feedstock (carbohydrates)

Renewable Energy Sustainability According to the United Nations, the world reached a population of 7 billion people in 2011, and it is estimated that the world population will increase to 9.7 billion people by the year 2050. Due to the lifespan of the average person increasing by almost thirty to forty years within the past sixty years, the population is growing faster than the Earth can possibly sustain everyone. The current main sources of energy are still nonrenewable resources. Nonrenewable
