In the present study, the most important parameters that affect the performance of a solar chimney power plant are investigated. The plant has a collector area of 7000 m diameter and a tower of 1000 m height. Under certain weather conditions, the results obtained show that the maximum electrical power of this plant can be reached in June and can be up to 119 MW. This amount of electrical power, which...
Improvement of the overall efficiency of energy infrastructure is one of the main anticipated benefits of the deployment of smart grid technology. Advancement in energy storage technology and two-way communication in the electric network are indispensable components to achieve such a vision, while efficient pricing schemes and appropriate storage management are also essential. In this paper, we propose...
Renewable energy generation has the advantage of sustainability and low carbon gas emission. Many countries are building power plants using green energy sources such as wind turbines and photovoltaic systems. Whilst these big energy generation stations will help in addressing environmental and energy dependence issues, power grid congestion during peak demand periods remains a serious challenge that...
Sustainable engineering has strong potential for hands-on multi-disciplinary project-based learning. In particular, projects within sustainable engineering can readily involve electrical, mechanical, computer, civil, and chemical engineering aspects while still being accessible to undergraduate engineering students. In this paper, we discuss a series of renewable energy and alternative energy storage...
Primary school is the basic unit of our educational system. But in the remote areas, a huge shortage of primary school is observed. Many children of these areas are deprived from sufficient educational facilities. These remote areas are either under supplied or have no provision of electricity supply from the national grid. For this, most of the schools cannot provide the facilities that depend on...
