Fresnel linear concentrator
The Fresnel linear concentrator is a little known form of thermal solar energy generation. The operation of this technology is today’s subject.
Why is the system three-phase?
Why is the production, transmission, and distribution of electrical energy system three-phase, instead of single-phase? Let’s find out in this post.
Capacitance and inductance: More information
I received requests to write more about capacitance and inductance. This post can be considered as the second part of derivated electrical quantities.
Electromagnetic pulse (EMP)
I received requests to write about electromagnetic pulse (EMP). In this post, are described the power of EMP, source, and weapons which use this technology.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI)
Fulfilling requests, this post’s subject is the problem of electromagnetic interference (EMI). In addition to relation with electromagnetic compatibility.
Stirling engine: What is it and how it works?
Stirling engine is of external combustion. Created in 1816 by Stirling brothers to be an alternative to steam engines, which were dangerous at that time.
Electrical e-Library at CERN (Part 2)
Continuing the visit to CERN. This second and last part is about the permanent exhibition of Microcosm and the guided tour.
Electrical e-Library at CERN (Part 1)
I was in Geneva, Switzerland, and I visited the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). This site shows permanent exhibition for visitors.
Technical Museum Nikola Tesla (Part 4)
This is the last part of Technical Museum Nikola Tesla.
