Long-Distance Electrical Transmission between the V.I. Lenin Hydroelectric Station and Moscow

Subsea umbilical cable is an important link to transmit power and signals in subsea production system, often lasts for tens of kilometers in deep-sea projects. It is expensive, bulky, and inconvenient to transport. In this article, a compact, low-cost umbilical cable electrical simulator is proposed, which can be equivalent to the real umbilical cable in power transmission characteristics and can adjust parameters in a certain range. By studying the electrical transmission characteristics of long umbilical cable, the calculation method of electrical transmission characteristics is determined. A simulation device for simulating the transmission characteristics of umbilical cable is designed, which can be used to simulate the umbilical cable diameter of 10 and 16 mm2. The voltage drop characteristics, signal transmission attenuation characteristics, and power carrier characteristics of the umbilical cable electrical simulation device are simulated and experimentally analyzed. The experimental results show that the voltage drop characteristics, signal transmission attenuation characteristics, and power carrier characteristics of the umbilical cable electrical simulator are in good agreement with the real umbilical cable. The simulation device of umbilical cable can well simulate the power and signal transmission characteristics of real umbilical cable.

Wind energy converter commonly converts wind power to shaft and electric power. One of the problems of transmitting shaft power is the limited distance between the driving to the driven shaft. This paper describes an experimental study of electrical transmission from driving to the driven shaft that was carried out on three modes of cable lines transmission. The driving shaft was attached to an electric generator that converts shaft r to electric power. The driven shaft was coupled by electric motor which reconverts the electric to shaft power. The generator and motor were BLDC and BDC permanent magnet electric machines. The distance of the driving to the driven shaft was 300 meters. The electric power was transmitted using wires. The wires consisted of 2 and 3 cables commonly used by peoples and sold in market place. The results showed that electric transmission mode on the experiment has important role on performance of shaft power to electric power conversion on driving generator and energy losses on cables transmission. DC on small wires electric transmission gave total efficiency of 16.2 %. DC on large wires electric transmission gave total efficiency of 32.9 %. AC on large wires electric transmission gave total efficiency of 36.4 %.

Distance Transport

Long distance transport in plants takes place in phloem tissue which has characteristic cells, the sieve elements. At maturity these cells have sieve areas in their end walls with specialized perforations. They are associated with companion cells, parenchyma cells, and in some species, with transfer cells. The protoplast of the functioning sieve element contains a high concentration of sugar, and consequently a high hydrostatic pressure, which makes it extremely difficult to fix mature sieve elements for electron microscopical observation without the formation of surge artifacts. Despite many structural studies which have attempted to prevent surge artifacts, several features of mature sieve elements, such as the distribution of P-protein and the nature of the contents of the sieve area pores, remain controversial.

Atherosclerotic Risk Factors

On the occasion of diagnosing a popliteal entrapment syndrome in a 59-year old man with no cardiovascular risk factors, who developed acute ischemic leg pain during long distance running, we give an overview on this entity with emphasis on patientsage. The different types of the popliteal artery compression syndrome are summarized. The diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are discussed. The most important clinical sign of a popliteal entrapment syndrome is the lack of atherosclerotic risk factors in patients with limited walking distance. Not only in young athletes but also in patients more than 50 years old the popliteal entrapment syndrome has to be taken into account.

This study aimed to explore the relationships between attachment styles, proximity, and relational satisfaction. This was achieved by assessing a distinct type of long distance romantic relationship of flying crews, compared with proximal (non-flying crew) romantic relationships. The responses of 139 expatriate professionals revealed significant associations between proximity and anxious and avoidant attachment dimensions. The role of the avoidant dimension in comparison with that of the anxious dimension was found to be a significant predictor of relational satisfaction. This study contributes significantly toward addressing the role of proximity and attachment in relational satisfaction in a new context of geographic separation.
