  • Wind Turbine DesignPrimary objective in wind turbine design is to maximize the aerodynamic efficiency, or power extracted from the wind. But this objective should be met by well satisfying mechanical strength criteria and economical aspects. In this video we will see impact of number of blades, blade shape, blade length and tower height on wind turbine design.
  • Modelling Complex Mechanical Structures with SimMechanicsModeling physical components or systems in Simulink® typically involves a tradeoff between simulation speed and model fidelity or complexity: the higher the fidelity of the model, the greater the effort needed to create it..
  • Biomass Energy Vs. Natural GasIn 2009, natural gas prices plunged to below $4 per MMBtu where many "Experts" are saying that prices will remain low for decades as a result of technology break-throughs allowing for sizable increases in natural gas supply for North America. The Energy Information Agency (EIA) just released data projections reflecting this potential increased supply in natural gas.

New study highlights enthusiasm of British farmers for renewable energy

Posted by Sohail Azad On 06:01

A new study published by 'Forum For the Future' highlights the enthusiasm for investing and deploying renewable energy by farmers on their farms. This comes out at the same time that the Government is trying to stop farmers installing solar pv on their farms in an effort to throw a sop to UKIP.'Forum For the Future', in collaboration with Nottingham Trent University, blow away the alleged conservatism of British farmers by indicating how large quantities of British electricity supply (much larger...

Government implies it may not sign Hinkley C deal before General Election

Posted by Sohail Azad On 09:08

The Government has refused to confirm that it it will sign a contract with EDF allowing Hinkley C to be built before April 2015, which is only a few weeks before the General Election. This can be seen in the text below which contains an answer to a Parliamentary Question tabled by Caroline Lucas. This evasive response underlines the shaky status of the Hinkley C nuclear project. See the text below:The Department for Energy and Climate Change has provided the following answer to your written parliamentary...

The real secret letter from the Treasury about disastrous Hinkley C is revealed

Posted by Sohail Azad On 02:49

Hot on the heels of news of further escalations of delays (and thus)  costs for EPRs being built in Finland and France there is news that the Treasury is conducting a 'secret' review of the EPR project that is scheduled to be built at Hinkley C.See http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/business/industries/utilities/article4272779.eceThis is more pantomime nonsense broadly similar to all the facile Parliamentary deliberations about whether the �92.50 per MWh price to be paid over 35 years with...
