more wind turbines are to be put up. Another disadvantage is the fact that some of the green energy sources cannot be installed in certain areas of the planet. For instance‚ wave energy can only be utilized if the waves coming from the ocean reach at least 16 feet. The use geothermal energy can only be done in geologically unstable parts of the planet. But if you look at such arguments‚ places that cannot use one form of green energy technology can be substituted for another. If wind turbines need

Short Fiction Essay: Setting "I hear again the ring of axes in deep woods‚ the crunch of snow beneath my feet. I feel again the smooth velvet of ghost-birch bark" (Whitecloud 157). In "Blue Winds Dancing‚" author Tom Whitecloud uses vivid descriptions of the outdoors. He allows us to understand how beautiful nature is. He gives nature a personality. His surroundings are almost a character themselves. In this story‚ Whitecloud is the main character. Written in first person‚ he brings us on his journey

Centrifugal pumps uses OF CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS: The applications of centrifugal pumps are numerous; however‚ these pumps are most often used in buildings for the following purposes: To pump the general water supply. This includes both the overhead and pneumatic tank systems. In general water supply systems where the pump takes off directly from the city pressure main or where no suction lift is required‚ a centrifugal pump can be used. When a centrifugal pump is being used with a suction

o Article history: Received 23 July 2010 Accepted 6 August 2011 Keywords: Vortex induced vibrations Piezoelectric energy harvesting Tandem cylinders abstract We design and test micro-watt energy-harvesters inspired by tree trunks swaying in the wind. A uniform flow vibrates a linear array of four cylinders affixed to piezoelectric energy transducers. Particular attention is paid to measuring the energy generated as a function of cylinder spacing‚ flow speed‚ and relative position of the cylinder

harnessing the power of flowing water. The power is generated by channeling the flow through a turbine which rotates a generator and creates the power. The most common location for instillation of a hydroelectric power plant is at a dam. The water develops potential energy while it is stored in the reservoir behind the dam and is then gravity feed through extremely large steel pipes into the turbine. The pipes used are referred to as penstocks. In large-scale power plants‚ the penstocks can easily
