Recent technological advances coupled with the collaboration between government and industry will soon make it possible to include IP routers and IP modems on board a commercial geostationary communications satellite. The Internet Protocol Routing in Space (IRIS) Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) will introduce a new network capability that is aimed at enhancing military network-centric...
To properly regulate currents inside IGNITOR poloidal (PFC) and toroidal (TFC) field coils a system of 15 thyristor AC/DC converter has been designed. The total electrical power drawn by the 400 kV grid has been minimized performing a multi-steps iterative optimization process. In this way the most appropriate current distribution within each PFC has been identified and the coil geometry modified,...
This article explains how the BPL (broadband over power lines) technology can serve as an alternative medium of communication for electrical network tasks on operations and maintenance at C.A. La Electricidad de Caracas
The industrial prototype of a superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES), sized to deliver 1 MW for 1 s, was designed and constructed as the result of a research project, partly funded by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research. After successfully undergoing factory tests, the SMES was installed at the Elettra Synchrotron Light facility in Trieste-I and is there under commissioning...
