AbstractWe have improved previous model calculations of the prominence-corona transition region including the effect of the ambipolar diffusion in the statistical equilibrium and energy balance equations. We show its influence on the different parameters that characterize the resulting prominence theoretical structure. We take into account the effect of the partial frequency redistribution (PRD) in the line profiles and total intensities calculations.

Photovoltaic Thermal Solar Collector (PVT) is a hybrid technology used to produce electricity and heat simultaneously. Current enhancements in PVT are to increase the electrical and thermal efficiencies. Many PVT factors such as type of absorber, thermal conductivity, type of PV module and operating conditions are important parameters that can control the PVT performance. In this paper, an analytical model, using energy balance equations, is studied for PVT with an improved parallel flow absorber. The performance is calculated for a typical sunny weather in Malaysia. It was found that the maximum electrical and thermal efficiencies are 12.9 % and 62.6 %, respectively. The maximum outlet water temperature is 59 oC.

Genetic Algorithm Approach

AbstractGravitational lensing can magnify a distant source, revealing structural detail which is normally unresolvable. Recovering this detail through an inversion of the influence of gravitational lensing, however, requires optimisation of not only lens parameters, but also of the surface brightness distribution of the source. This paper outlines a new approach to this inversion, utilising genetic algorithms to reconstruct the source profile. In this initial study, the effects of image degradation due to instrumental and atmospheric effects are neglected and it is assumed that the lens model is accurately known, but the genetic algorithm approach can be incorporated into more general optimisation techniques, allowing the optimisation of both the parameters for a lensing model and the surface brightness of the source.

Limiting Efficiency

Recent discoveries on the limiting efficiency of tidal fences are reviewed, followed by a new theoretical investigation into the effect of wake mixing on the efficiency of ‘full’ tidal fences (i.e. turbines arrayed regularly across an entire channel span). The new model is based on the momentum and energy balance equations but includes several unclosed terms, which depend on the actual (three-dimensional) characteristics of turbine near-wake mixing and therefore need to be modelled empirically. The new model agrees well with three-dimensional actuator disk simulations when those unclosed terms are assessed based on the simulations themselves, suggesting that this low-order model could serve as a basis to analyse how various physical factors (such as the design of turbines) affect the limiting efficiency of tidal fences via changes in those terms describing the characteristics of turbine near-wake mixing. Also discussed is the effect of wake mixing on the efficiency of ‘partial’ tidal fences.

Poynting Theorem

<p>Poynting theorem plays a very important role in analyzing electromagnetic phenomena. The electromagnetic power flux density is usually expressed with the Poynting vector. However, since Poynting theorem basically focuses on the power balance in a system, it is not so convenient in some situations to use it for evaluating the electromagnetic energies. The energy balance issue for time varying fields is revisited in this paper, and a set of energy balance equations are introduced, and a modified method for evaluating power flux is proposed.</p>
