Review Materials for Advanced Power Engineering 1994 Part I & Part II (Pt. 1 &2) / Springer:The role of energy in the modern world goes beyond mere technology and economics to influence welfare, the environment, the quality of life and, in broad terms, civilization itself. Since the industrial revolution, energy conservation technology has been at the forefront of the innovation required to satisfy the needs of mankind and, more than any other, this technology has always depended on the performance of the materials used. In this, the report of the Fifth Liège Conference devoted to a review of the work of the European Materials Collaborative Programmes, the results of the programmes are presented along the following technology oriented themes: steam power plant gas turbines diesel engines advanced combustion perspectives. The book thus presents one of the most up to date references available anywhere on materials technologies in energy conversion from fossil fuels and materials for high efficiency, low emission systems.

Review The Radiochemistry of Nuclear Power Plants With Light Water Reactors / Walter de Gruyter:In this text, radioactivity and the chemical reactions of radionuclons within the different areas of a nuclear power plant are discussed. The text concentrates on commercially-operated light water reactors which currently represent the greatest faction of the world's nuclear power capacity. In 1994, the total electricity production of such plants corresponded to approximately 17 per cent of the global production. Part A of the text is devoted to a short description of the design of different types of plants in current operation, focusing mainly on those aspects of the plants that are relevant for radionuclide chemistry and behaviour. In Part B, radiochemistry in the primary systems of the plant during normal operation state is discussed. Part C addresses accident conditions, which are different in essential ways as regards to radionuclide chemistry, from normal operating conditions.

Review Bath Workshop on Power Transmission and Motion Control: PTMC 98 / Professional Engineering Publishing:In order to solve a particular motion control problem the engineer is initially faced with the task of selecting an appropriate power transmission medium. This is frequently followed by modelling and simulation of the proposed solution in concert with control system analysis and design. The process involves both synthesis and analysis and, in some instances, can be particularly challenging to the engineer. This text covers all aspects of this power transmisison and motion control with particular emphasis placed on current international research and development. This collection of papers should be of value to researchers and practitioners working in the power transmision and motion control community.

Review Aging and Life Extension of Major Light Water Reactor Components / Elsevier Science:Hardbound. In a comprehensive and lucid manner this book presents an understanding of the aging degradation of the major pressurized and boiling water reactor structures and components. The design and fabrication of each structure or component is briefly described followed by information on the associated stressors. Interactions between the design, materials, and various stressors that cause aging degradation are reviewed. In many cases, aging degradation problems have occurred, and the plant experience to date is analysed. The discussions summarize the available aging-related information and are supported with extensive references, including references to U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) documents, Electric Power Research Institute reports, U. S. and international conference proceedings and other publications. [+]The book will prove a useful reference for engineers engaged in the operation and life extension of the present generation of nuclear pow.

Review The Field Orientation Principle in Control of Induction Motors (Power Electronics and Power Systems) / Springer:The Field Orientation Principle (FOP) constitutes a fundamental concept behind the modern technology of high-performance, vector-controlled drive systems with AC motors. The recent intense interest in these systems has been spawned by the widespread transition from DC to AC drives in industry. Induction motors, industry's traditional workhorses, are particularly well suited for FOP-based vector control. The Field Orientation Principle in Control of Induction Motors presents the FOP in a simple, easy-to-understand framework based on the space-vector dynamic model of the induction machine. Relationships between the classic phasor equivalent circuits of the motor and their vector counterparts are highlighted. A step-by-step derivation of dynamic equations of the motor provides a formal background for explanation of the basic approaches to vector control. In addition, the author presents scalar control methods for low-performance drives as an intermediate stage between uncontrolled and high-performance drives. The reader will also find a full chapter devoted to power inverters, which constitute an important component of adjustable speed AC drive systems, and a review of associated issues such as observers of motor variables, parameter estimation, adaptive tuning, and principles of the position and speed control of field-oriented induction motors. With a wealth of numerical examples and computer simulations illustrating the ideas and techniques discussed and an extensive bibliography, The Field Orientation Principle in Control of Induction Motors is a practical resource and valuable reference for researchers and students interested in motor control, power and industrial electronics, and control theory.

Review Modern Electrical Drives (NATO SCIENCE SERIES: E Applied Sciences Volume 369) / Springer:Electrical drives lie at the heart of most industrial processes and make a major contribution to the comfort and high quality products we all take for granted. They provide the controller power needed at all levels, from megawatts in cement production to milliwatts in wrist watches. Other examples are legion, from the domestic kitchen to public utilities. The modern electrical drive is a complex item, comprising a controller, a static converter and an electrical motor. Some can be programmed by the user. Some can communicate with other drives. Semiconductor switches have improved, intelligent power modules have been introduced, all of which means that control techniques can be used now that were unimaginable a decade ago. Nor has the motor side stood still: high-energy permanent magnets, semiconductor switched reluctance motors, silicon micromotor technology, and soft magnetic materials produced by powder technology are all revolutionising the industry. But the electric drive is an enabling technology, so the revolution is rippling throughout the whole of industry.
