Local Energy: Distributed generation of heat and power
In future the UK's energy supplies, for both heat and power, will come from much more diverse sources. In many cases this will mean local energy projects serving a local community or even a single house. What technologies are available? Where and at what scale can they be used? How can they work effectively with our existing energy networks? This book explores these power and heat sources, explains the characteristics of each and examines how they can be used.
Low Power and Low Voltage Circuit Design with the FGMOS Transistor
This new book demonstrates how FGMOS transistors can be used in a low voltage and low power design context. The techniques used provide innovative solutions, often in situations where the limits of the technology in question have been pushed far below the values recommended by the manufacturer.
The Switching Function: analysis of power electronic circuits
This new book demonstrates the usefulness of the switching function in analysing power electronic circuits in the steady state. It includes analysis of generic circuits of power electronics using the switching function, and derives compact expressions for output voltage and current and input current.
The calculation of short circuit currents is a central task for Power System engineers, they are essential parameters for the design of electrical equipment and installations, the operation of power systems and the analysis of outages and faults. Short-circuit Currents gives an overview of the components within power systems with respect to the parameters needed for short circuit current calculation. It also explains how to use a system of symmetrical components to analyse different types of short circuits in power systems.
Killer Presentations: Power the Imagination to Visualise Your Point - With Power Point
In this book presentations guru Nicholas Oulton sets out a revolutionary approach that will allow you to use Power Point - TM - to exponentionally multiply the power of your presentations. You will radically increase the chances of impressing your audience and achieving your objectives. Using tried and tested principles, Nicholas shows how - through practical, systematic thinking and overhauling your attitude to the visual aids you use - you can ditch bad old habits and bring your presenatations to vivid life.
