Hydroelectric Power Plant (and Pumped Storage Power Plant)Ryan Triadhitama
I would like to share some materials as a basic information about hydroelectric power plant and pumped storage power plant. I might not be able to provide all the detail information on the slides, but feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
This presentation summarizes different types of hydro turbines classified based on how water acts on the turbine blades. Impulse turbines like Pelton and Turgo turbines use the kinetic energy of a high velocity water jet to turn the runner. Reaction turbines like Francis and Kaplan turbines use both the pressure and velocity of water. Francis turbines have fixed blades while Kaplan turbines have adjustable blades controlled by a servo mechanism. The presentation provides details on the working, typical specifications and applications of these common hydro turbine types to help select the optimal turbine for a hydroelectric project based on factors like head, flow, and output requirements.
The Francis turbine is an inward flow reaction turbine with radial discharge at the outlet. It is a mixed-flow turbine where water enters the runner radially and exits axially. Francis turbines are used in applications with medium head between 45-250 meters. They have medium specific speeds between 50-250 and a vertically oriented shaft. Francis turbines are widely used worldwide due to their high efficiencies between 80-94%. However, they also have high costs due to their complex design and cavitation can be an issue.
Pump storage hydroelectricity involves pumping water from a lower reservoir to an upper reservoir during off-peak hours using surplus grid power. The stored water is then released through turbines to generators during peak hours to produce electricity and meet higher demand. It helps balance the electricity load by absorbing excess power during low demand and releasing it during high demand periods. The largest pump storage plant is located in Bath County, Virginia and has an installed capacity of 3003MW from 6 turbines. It provides load balancing and frequency regulation services on the power grid.
This presentation summarizes key aspects of hydroelectric power plants. It introduces hydroelectricity as a renewable energy source that converts the kinetic energy of flowing water into electricity. It then discusses applications of hydroelectric power, providing examples of how hydroelectric plants can supply base load and peak load power. The document proceeds to describe the Kaptai hydroelectric power plant in Bangladesh as a case study, detailing its dam, reservoir, and power generation capacity. It concludes by outlining the essential components and schematic arrangement of typical hydroelectric power stations.
This compressor works on the principle of centrifugal action. It finds wide variety of applications in engineering field. It is available in market from low to high capacities.
This document discusses power plant economics, selection criteria, and environmental issues. It covers topics such as load curves, base load vs peak load, heat rates, cost per kW calculations, depreciation methods, present worth, reliability, and factors that influence the cost of power generation such as load factor, efficiency, and preventative maintenance.

This project and implementation is very useful for long journey vehicle and this setup
helps to raise vehicle by using battery or engine power. An automatic pneumatichydraulic jack comprises a mini air compressor and automatic hydraulic jack to serve
as an on-vehicle tool where as the power of the battery on the vehicle is used to drive
the mini air compressor which compresses air to serve as its primary force. The air
enters an entry channel from an air inlet nozzle and passes to an air chamber via a
changeover valve to push a small air-oil piston, thus converting air pressure into
hydraulic pressure on the other side of the piston which enters into a large hydraulic
cylinder via a check valve and pushes a large piston. The downward movement of the
small air-oil piston causes engagement with and turns the changeover valve, thus
connecting the air chamber channel to an exhaust channel and the entry channel to the
storage tank channel which enables the oil storage tank to supply the small hydraulic
cylinder with oil under pressure and make the small air-oil piston move upwards when
the small hydraulic cylinder is filled with oil, the small air-oil piston turns the
changeover valve to connect the air entry channel to the air chamber channel again,
thereby completing the cycle. Such reciprocation converts the air pressure into
hydraulic pressure to push the big piston which in turn, jacks up the vehicle. To lower
the vehicle, an oil return screw is turned to allow the oil to return to the oil storage tank
via a return channel

Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy. They consist of a tower, nacelle, rotor blades, generator, and other components. When wind blows, the rotor blades spin a shaft connecting to a generator inside the nacelle to produce electricity. Wind turbines require a minimum wind speed of 10-15 kph to function and automatically stop at 90 kph for safety. They come in both onshore and offshore varieties, with offshore turbines able to generate more electricity due to more regular winds but being more expensive to install and maintain.
The objective of this project is to design a wind turbine that is optimized for the constraints that come with residential use. The main tasks of this project are:
> To study the design process and methodology of wind turbine
> Derive the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory then use it to conduct a parametric study that will determine if the optimized values of blade pitch and chord length create the most efficient blade geometry
> Analyse different air-foils to determine which one creates the most efficient wind turbine blade.
Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy. Modern wind turbines are much more efficient than older designs, able to generate 250-300 kilowatts compared to older models generating around 30 kilowatts. Wind turbines work by using wind to turn blades which spin a shaft connected to a generator, producing electricity. They are mounted on towers to access stronger winds higher off the ground. While wind energy has advantages like being renewable and producing no emissions, it also has disadvantages like dependence on wind conditions and higher initial costs than some other energy sources.

It then discusses different blade designs including the number of blades (one, two, or three blades are common), blade composition (wood, metal, fiberglass are options), construction techniques, airfoil shape to maximize lift and minimize drag, and twist and taper along the blade's length. Additional topics covered include tip-speed ratio, performance curves, the Betz limit on maximum energy capture, rotor solidity, pitch control mechanisms, and blade manufacturing processes. The document concludes by discussing classroom wind turbine blade challenge activities.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.
