Corona Losses

PT. PLN (PERSERO) as a state-owned company responsible in the electricity sector is required to improve the quality of electricity transmission. In the transmission of electrical power to consumers will be got losses of power. Raising the voltage is an alternative to this problem but it creates new problems because the higher the voltage has increased the corona will occur. The impact of the corona in addition to damaging equipment, noise, and disturbing radio waves, the corona also causes power losses that are proportional to the length of the transmission line. This study uses a quantitative method, by calculating the corona power losses by comparing 4 different cross-sectional areas of the conductor and 4 different air temperatures. The results of this study found that the smaller the cross-sectional area of the conductor the power losses due to corona are smaller, conversely the greater the cross-sectional area the greater the power losses. At the smallest cross-sectional area of 282.6 mm2, the power losses that occurred were 2.013% and at the largest cross-sectional area of 378.7 mm2, the power losses were 5.251%. While the influence of air temperature, the lowest corona losses occur at 29 0C which are 1,223,886 kW and the biggest occur at 24 0C which are 1,373,419 kW, so the higher the air temperature the smaller the corona losses, conversely the lower the air temperature than the higher the corona losses that occur.

Introduction: Factors for adverse cardiac events after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation among patients with hemodialysis (HD) remain to be elucidated. Hypothesis: Suboptimal DES implantation is associated with the increased incidence of adverse events in patients with HD. Methods: A total of 109 consecutive patients with HD who underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided DES implantation were included. The impact of post-stent OCT findings on the incidence of device-oriented clinical endpoints (DoCE) at 1 year was investigated. DoCE included cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization, and stent thrombosis. Results: There was no significant difference in baseline clinical characteristics and pre-stent lesion characteristics between patients with DoCE (n=15) and those without DoCE (n=94). Significant hazard ratio (HR) for the incidence of DoCE was not observed in the presence of edge dissection, irregular protrusion, or incomplete stent apposition (Panel A). In receiver operating characteristic curve analyses, the best cutoff of minimum stent cross-sectional area (MSA), %stent expansion [MSA / mean reference lumen cross-sectional area х 100], and eccentricity index (minimum stent diameter / maximum stent diameter) at MSA site for detecting DoCE was 3.4 (mm 2 ), 72.0 (%), and 0.71, respectively. Significant HR for the incidence of DoCE was observed in the presence of MSA< 3.4 (HR 3.58, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04 - 12.4, p=0.035) and eccentricity index< 0.71 (HR 6.68, 95% CI 1.94 - 23.0, p=0.001) (Panel B). Conclusions: Smaller stent area and eccentric expansion were associated with increased incidence of DoCE after DES implantation in patient with HD, although the presence of other post-stent suboptimal findings were not associated with the incidence of DoCE. The present results suggest the importance of larger stent area and concentric stent expansion in patients with HD.

The Sacrifice

In order to improve the toughness of oil casing steel N80 without the sacrifice of its original high strength, an intercritical quenching treatment was conducted under the temperature determined by a differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Effects of intercritical quenching on the microstructure of oil casing steel N80 were characterized by means of optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Tensile strength, reduction of cross-sectional area and microhardness were measured to evaluate the mechanical property of oil casing steel N80 after intercritical quenching treatment. The study results show that the tensile strength and microhardness of intercritical quenched oil casing steel N80 consisting of ferrite (F) and martensite (M) is slightly lower than that of tempered oil casing steel N80 composing of sorbite (S), yet which is still higher than that of full annealled oil casing steel N80 composing of pearlite (P) and a little amount of ferrite (F). In particular, the reduction of cross-sectional area of oil casing steel N80 intercritical quenched at 740°C is higher than those of tempered and full annealled. Additionally, both dimple and cleavage can be found on the impact fracture surface of N80 steel after intercritical quenching at 740°C. The toughness of oil casing steel N80 can be obviously improved by the intercritical quenching treatment at 740°C due to the formation of ferrite (F).

AbstractWhile concurrent training is regularly used in older populations, the inverse relationship between fibre size and oxidative capacity suggests that endurance training in resistance-trained individuals may result in some loss of resistance training-induced gains in muscle mass, which may be more pronounced in older people. We investigated the impact of superimposed endurance training in younger (28.5 ± 4.8 years; n = 8) and older (67.5 ± 5.5 years; n = 7) highly resistance-trained men. Participants underwent a 10-week endurance cycling training programme consisting of five 6-min intervals at 75% max heart rate (HRmax) separated by 4-min intervals at 90% HRmax. The anatomical cross-sectional area (ACSA) of the thigh muscles, as determined with MRI, was 24% smaller in older compared to younger participants (p < 0.001). Although maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) was also lower in the older group (p < 0.001), VO2max per kg body mass did not differ significantly between younger and older participants. Histological analyses of biopsies of the m. vastus lateralis showed that endurance training induced an increase in succinate dehydrogenase activity in both younger and older participants (p ≤ 0.043), and an increase in the number of capillaries around type I fibres (p = 0.017). The superimposed endurance training did not induce a significant decrease in thigh ACSA, fibre cross-sectional area, or knee extensor maximum voluntary isometric force. These observations indicate that adding endurance training to resistance training can lead to positive endurance-related adaptations without negative consequences for muscle size and strength in older and younger resistance-trained people.
