Abstract

Objectives: This paper discussed the cost analysis and power quality issues by using distributed generation technology in India. Methods/Statistical Analysis: A new technology known as distributed generation has been adopted which helps in mitigate the demand of power in future. The insertion of DG in distribution system is very helpful in distant areas and small areas where the installation of transmission lines and availability of land is impossible. This paper review on the different types of Distribution technologies, their insertion cost as compared to conventional generation energy sources and power quality problems and how they useful in future to fulfill the demand of power. Findings: Previously conventional sources such as coal, petroleum, natural gas have been used for generation of electrical power. These conventional energy sources are not environmental friendly and their cost is more as compared to non-conventional energy source. As demand is increasing day by day such sources wind energy, solar energy, fuel cell etc. are helpful to fulfill the demand of electrical power. Application/Improvements: DG as a cheap source of electric generation reduces the transmission line cost, transmission losses and it is environmental friendly also and gives benefits to the consumer.

Abstract

Objective: This paper comprises the new way of construction and designing of mechanical roof for the controlled environment. Methods: Retractable roofs are those roofs which are used now days to cover the stadiums from the top so that there won’t be hindrance for the audience and players to see and play match in adverse weather conditions. Mechrella is kind of roof designed to be used for industries purpose where products and raw materials are dried or stored in open chambers. So this idea will be helpful in unfamiliar weather conditions. Finding: It was found that some industries that used to dry their raw material and products in direct sunlight suffered losses in unwanted rain shower so, Mechrella was sought an idea for such industries. It works automatically without any manual button. This idea is different, as before this retractable roof for stadiums were used and those were expensive to install in small levels industries. But this idea of Mechrella is cheaper and also easily portable. Application: It is cheap to install so it can be used in big as well as small scale industries to cover the roof in unwanted rain shower. Example: spices industries, dry flower industries etc.
