Circuit analysis (Part 2)
In this second part, will be presented two circuit analysis methods. Will be shown only DC circuits with resistors.
Types of dam to hydroelectricity
The dams are important to many hydro power plants. In this post, will be shown the many types of dam.
Circuit analysis (Part 1)
This is a basic concepts post destined to students and beginners in the area. This is the first part about how to make circuit analysis in direct current only with resistors.
Visit to Itaipu power plant
I visited the Itaipu power plant, the biggest hydropower generator in the world. The Three Gorges Dam in China is bigger in size, but Itaipu generates more power.
Wave power generation
This post’s subject is wave power generation from sea. This is an alternative of clean and renewable power source which can complement with other renewable power sources.
All fuels (Part 2)
Giving continuity to subject about fuels. In this post will be shown alternatives fuels, it’s features and properties.
All fuels (Part 1)
I received requests to write about fuels. In this post, will be shown the main petroleum fuels actually used, your properties and applications.
How universal motor works?
Imagine a motor which can work both in continous current and alternate. This motor exists, it is called universal motor and is this post’s subject.
How steam turbines work?
No thermal power plant works without steam turbines, designed specifically to energy generation. Are this subject’s post.
