Impacto da redução do nível de tensão na iluminação residencial em uma rede inteligente

In this paper, we will present an overview of the smart grid defining the three main systems that compose it: smart infrastructure system, smart management system and smart protection system. We will conceptualize a functionality of smart management system, the conservative voltage reduction, citing its benefits and its history of application. And, finally, we'll cover a test in which we reduce the nominal voltages on incandescent bulbs, CFL and LED, in the context of residential lighting, and on LED and HPS, in the context of public lighting. The test aims to check whether the voltage reduction adversely affects sources of lighting by measuring the temperature manually with a thermal imaging camera FLIR and illuminance with a LUX meter. The set of power factor, total harmonic distortion, and input power values will be collected automatically through the power quality Analyzer Fluke 345 with a probe Fluke Hall Effect Current. For residential lighting, it was found that both CFL and LED had good performance with the smallest variations in illuminance. Between both, the LED source had the lowest harmonics and the lowest power consumption, on the other hand incandescent bulbs had a bad performance as expected. Public light sources also had a good performance and obtained power factors within the standards, as opposed to the CFL and LED residential sources. The data collected clearly shows the feasibility for nominal voltage reductions. Even with small reductions, there are possibilities of savings which can be passed on to the utilities and consumers

O lodo de esgoto como fator de supressão de fitopatógenos

O descarte ideal para um resíduo altamente poluente somado à necessidade de se diminuir o uso do agrotóxico nas plantações, faz com que estudos sejam direcionados para a utilização do lodo de esgoto como fator de supressão de fitopatógenos. Alguns pesquisadores já encontraram resultados bastante animadores, atribuindo aos resíduos das estações de tratamento de esgoto, a diminuição dos sintomas ou até mesmo o total controle dos organismos fitopatogênicos. O trabalho teve como objetivo sintetizar os resultados, com ênfase em artigos científicos e trabalhos acadêmicos dos últimos 15 anos, da aplicação do lodo de esgoto, fornecendo subsídio para estudos posteriores e para o público em geral interessado no assunto. O foco principal foram os mecanismos envolvidos na supressão de micro-organismos causadores de doenças em plantas, mas foram abordados os métodos de obtenção e aplicação, a problemática de substâncias e micro-organismos potencialmente perigosos presentes no lodo de esgoto, bem como os principais pontos relevantes da utilização florestal e agrícola do resíduo

Influência da incorporação de nanofibras de poliamida 6 com e sem nanotubos de carbono como reforço de prótese parcial fixa adesiva

The aim of this study was to evaluate the behavior of reinforced composites with polyamide 6 fibers aligned (6000 rpm) and alignment (120 rpm) with or without CNT using the flexural strength test. After preparation of nanofibers aligned nylon 6 (6000 rpm) and alignment (120 rpm) with and without incorporation of nanotube carbon by the method of electrospinning, were performed one control group (n = 10) and 4 experimental groups (n = 40) G1: Control (just resin Charisma - Heraeus Kulzer) ;G2 Resin + N6 aligned (6000 rpm) + CNT; G3:Resin + N6 alignment (120 rpm) + CNT; G4: Resin + aligned ( 6000 rpm) N6. G5: Resin + N6 alignment (120 rpm). The fibers were cut to the dimensions of 0,3 x 15 mm and were applied an adhesive at the surface (Single Bond 2) for 5 min and cured. In the matrix, was added resin in the proximal box (Charisma A2, Heraeus Kulzer) and cured for 40 s. (power 1100 mW / cm²). A first layer of resin and on the resin was deposited. The resin layers specimens were light irradiated with three overlapping exposures delivered. For each resin layer were light irradiated for 40 sec. The samples were tested with a cross-speed of 1 mm / min, and a 50 Kgf at Universal testing machine (EMIC mod.DL2000). The Dunnet test showed that only the nanotube group was significantly different from the control group. The ANOVA two-way indicates that the nanotube factor was statistically significant (p < 0.05) and there is no interaction between factors and orientation nanotube. The presence of nanotube showed lower fracture resistance values for aligned and unaligned groups. The results of this study showed that the orientation of the fibers does not influence the strength of composite resins and the incorporation of nylon nanofibers with carbon nanotubes decreased the fracture resistance values. The presence of the fibers has not been able to improve the strength of the material in any of the...

Análise dos ciclos operacionais para especificação de motores de indução trifásicos

This paper addresses the three-phase induction motor by a thermal analysis of its operation, under the gaze of the standards of the Brazilian Association of Technical Standards that deal with working arrangements (operating cycles) defined by appropriate tests and for each use of the motor basis of this study, emphasizing especially the fact of the first three cycles are the cycles with greater possibilities of use for scaling a three-phase induction motor for the main industrial processes, will also be made an analysis of the reasons why the three-phase induction motors have a loss of power at altitudes above 1000 m above sea level and some methods of how to define how a three phase induction motor can be used in one of the first three working arrangements
