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.
UPS: What is it and how does it work?
UPS (the abbreviation of Uninterruptable Power Source) is also called no-break. The operation and types are today’s subject.
Technical Museum Nikola Tesla (Part 3)
Continuing to Technical Museum Nikola Tesla series. Are shown another section and main hall. Other part are in following links.
Technical Museum Nikola Tesla (Part 1)
I was in Zagreb, Croatia’s capital and visited the Technical Museum Nikola Tesla. It is a huge museum and this is the first part of series.
Auxiliary Power Unit (APU)
Did you know that commercial planes have an engine which aren’t in wings? It is the auxiliary power unit and this post’s subject.
Asynchronous x synchronous generators
This post is about a comparison between asynchronous and synchronous generators. Showing main advantages and disadvantages of both.
How asynchronous generator works?
The asynchronous generator is also called induction generator. It is used in small hydropower plants and wind turbines.
DC voltage to rotor of synchronous generator
This is the second part of synchronous generator. The subject is an introduction about ways to provide direct current to synchronous machine’s rotor.
How synchronous generators work?
Synchronous generators are used in many types of power plants to convert mechanical energy of turbines in electrical energy.
