Renewable energy systems are technologies that can generate electricity from solar, wind, hydroelectric, biomass, and other renewable resources. This research project aims to find the best technology combinations for several scenarios in Malaysia. The strategies analysed by evaluating investments each of decided Malaysia, Pekan, Pahang Mersing, Johor, using HOMER Pro software. finding shows PV–wind hybrid system has a better net present cost (NPC) than both scenarios, which USD −299,762.16...
Solar enhanced natural draft dry cooling tower (SENDDCT) is a novel heat rejection device for thermal power plant, which uses solar energy to reheat the air after exchanger and therefore improves ventilation of performance enhancement. This paper develops 3-D models compare effects circular/sawtooth arrangements on 140 m high SENDDCT. The result shows that sawtooth arrangement can improve dissipation rate SENDDCTs. Under no crosswind condition, flow field distributions circular are similar...
Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is vital to status evaluation of power transformers. In this study, a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) sensor was fabricated and applied DGA. Then, chromatographic system developed on basis the SOFC detector. From Nernst function SOFC, mathematical model based oxygen consumption accumulation (OCA) has been proposed quantify trace gases dissolved in oil. Based OCA concentration can be calculated though chromatogram directly, no calibrating needed, thereby greatly...
This paper reports an investigation into a practical cooling issue on type of fan-forced finned-tube heat exchangers used in Queensland's coal seam gas (CSG) industry. CSG compression facilities some production sites suffered underproduction recent summers because frequent automatic engine shutdowns. The problem is not expected by the manufacturer's design. However, it suspected being related to control systems triggering overheating-protection shutdowns due possible deficiencies one or...
Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are one of the most widespread forms geothermal energy technology. They utilise near-constant temperature ground below frost line to achieve energy-efficiencies two or three times that conventional air-conditioners, consequently allowing a significant offset in electricity demand for space heating and cooling. Relatively mature GSHP markets established Europe North America. implementation Australia, however, is limited, due high capital price, uncertainties...
