Análise computacional do desempenho de estratégia para o religamento controlado de linhas de transmissão

The search for mitigation solutions, with respect to the effects of overvoltages linked to the energization and reclosing maneuvers of transmission lines include a challenging subject with strong impact on the insulation coordination of electrical systems. Although the recognition of classical and commercial proposals to mitigate these phenomena, other possibilities are certainly still worthwhile highlighting and investigations. In this context, the present work is grounded in the exposure of the physical and mathematical foundations of a strategy based on controlled switchings, whose moments to the line reclosing are pre-programmed. The computational evaluation of the effectiveness of the methodology is made using the ATP simulator, which are studies in a typical electrical system subjected to the action of short-circuits fallowed by shutdowns and subsequent reclosing, under the action of technology here focused and lack thereof.

Simulação computacional de materiais bidimensionais: funcionalização de defeitos extensos no grafeno e retenção de contaminantes por argilominerais

In this work are considered two bidimensional systems, with distints chacacteristcs and applicabilitys. Is studied the adsorption of transition metals (MT) Fe, Co, Mn and Ru in extended defects, formed by graphene grain boundaries. First in pristine graphene The hollow site of carbon hexagon, in pristine graphene, are the most stable for MT adsorption. The Dirac cone in eletronic structure of graphene was manteined with the presence of MT. For the considered grain boundaries the MT has a greater stability for absorption in the grain boundaries sites in comparison with pristine graphene. Through the energy barrier values, are observed diffusion chanels for MT localized on the grain boundaries. This diffusion chanels indicate a possible formation of nanolines of MT in graphene. For the first stage of the nanolines, ate observed a better stability for the system with greater MT concentration, due to MT-MT interactions. Also, due to the magnetic moment of the MT, the nanolines show a magnetization. For the most stable configurations the system are metallics, particularly for Fe the band structure indicates an anisotropic spin current. In a second study, are considereted the retention capacity for metallic contaminants Cd and Hg in clayminerals, kaolinite (KAO) and montmorillonite (MMT). Through the adsorption energies of contaminantes in the clayminerals, was observed a increase in stability with the increase of contaminants concentration, due to the interaction Cd-Cd and Hg-Hg. Also, was observed that KAO has a strong interaction beteween monolayers than MMT. In this sence, for the adsoption process of contaminantes in the natural form of KAO and MMT, the latter has a better retention capacity, due to the small net work for contaminant intercalation. However, when the modification of clayminerals, with molecules that increase the spacing between monolayers, exist a optimal condition, which the contaminant absorption are more stable in KAO system than in MMT. In the Langmuir adsorption model for the clayminerals in the optimal monolayer spacing, the retention capacity for Cd and Hg in KAO system are 21% greater than in MMT system. Also, for the X-ray Absorption Near Edge Spectroscopy (XANES) for the K edge of Cd and Hg, are found a positive shift of absorption edge with the decreasing of monolayer spacing. This result indicates a possible way to determine the concentration of adsorbed contaminats in relation to unabsorbed ones, from the decomposition of experimental XANES in the obteined spectras.

Performatividad y arte computacional. Hacia una “DIY society”

El artículo analiza la figura del prosumidor desde los estudios visuales a partir de la combinación de la teoría de los actos de habla y los nuevos medios. El objetivo es evaluar si la distinción entre productores y consumidores, estrategias y tácticas de Michel de Certeau continúa siendo operativa en las interfaces gráficas de la cultura global de la información de Scott Lash. Para ello distingue dos tipos de performatividad de los actos de habla: la performatividad top-down del software, y la bottom-up de los juegos del lenguaje y las formas de vida. Estos tipos se aplican al análisis del discurso de los eslóganes que aparecen en los sitios web de las iniciativas “open” y de economía colaborativa, ya que las primeras están dedicadas a la producción de bienes inmateriales y las segundas a la producción de bienes materiales. El desarrollo muestra cómo los dos tipos de performatividad transforman el análisis textual de los estudios literarios y cinematográficos en una metodología capaz de investigar acciones materiales, humanas y no humanas. Las conclusiones describen el surgimiento de nuevas convenciones narrativas de poder y control ajenas a la ficción que apuntan a una “DIY society”.

Utilização de um aplicativo de simulação computacional na avaliação de desempenho térmico de protótipo de habitação de interesse social (his)

This Masters Degree dissertation seeks to make a comparative study of internal air temperature data, simulated through the thermal computer application DesignBuilder 1.2, and data registered in loco through HOBO® Temp Data Logger, in a Social Housing Prototype (HIS), located at the Central Campus of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte UFRN. The prototype was designed and built seeking strategies of thermal comfort recommended for the local climate where the study was carried out, and built with panels of cellular concrete by Construtora DoisA, a collaborator of research project REPESC Rede de Pesquisa em Eficiência Energética de Sistemas Construtivos (Research Network on Energy Efficiency of Construction Systems), an integral part of Habitare program. The methodology employed carefully examined the problem, reviewed the bibliography, analyzing the major aspects related to computer simulations for thermal performance of buildings, such as climate characterization of the region under study and users thermal comfort demands. The DesignBuilder 1.2 computer application was used as a simulation tool, and theoretical alterations were carried out in the prototype, then they were compared with the parameters of thermal comfort adopted, based on the area s current technical literature. Analyses of the comparative studies were performed through graphical outputs for a better understanding of air temperature amplitudes and thermal comfort conditions. The data used for the characterization of external air temperature were obtained from the Test Reference Year (TRY), defined for the study area (Natal-RN). Thus the author also performed comparative studies for TRY data registered in the years 2006, 2007 and 2008, at weather station Davis Precision Station, located at the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais INPE-CRN (National Institute of Space Research), in a neighboring area of UFRN s Central Campus. The conclusions observed from the comparative studies performed among computer simulations, and the local records obtained from the studied prototype, point out that the simulations performed in naturally ventilated buildings is quite a complex task, due to the applications limitations, mainly owed to the complexity of air flow phenomena, the influence of comfort conditions in the surrounding areas and climate records. Lastly, regarding the use of the application DesignBuilder 1.2 in the present study, one may conclude that it is a good tool for computer simulations. However, it needs some adjustments to improve reliability in its use. There is a need for continued research, considering the dedication of users to the prototype, as well as the thermal charges of the equipment, in order to check sensitivity

Selección de la capa salina del suelo que mejor se correlaciona con el rendimiento de azúcar recuperable de la caña de azúcar

El objetivo del experimento fue encontrar qué capa del suelo (salinidad) se correlaciona mejor con la producción de azúcar recuperable de la caña. Se realizó en el campo Zapote, de la empresa Tumán, localizada en la costa norte, departamento de Lambayeque, Perú. Este campo (salinidad 2-8 dSm-1) fue sembrado con caña de azúcar (Saccharum spp.) cultivar H32-8560, en 105 parcelas (cosechadas a cinco edades diferentes) que fueron fertilizadas con cinco dosis de N, y un testigo sin fertilizar. Se realizaron correlaciones lineales entre el rendimiento de azúcar y la salinidad (conductividad eléctrica del extracto de saturación : CEe) de diferentes capas del suelo (0-30 cm, 30-60, 60-90, promedio de 0-60, promedio de 0-90, capa más salina de 0-60, capa menos salina de 0-60 cm). También se correlacionó el rendimiento de azúcar con diez promedios aritméticos y ponderados de la salinidad obtenida antes de la siembra y después de la cosecha. Se encontró mayor correlación cuando se usaron los datos de salinidad de antes de la siembra, que cuando se usaron datos de después de la cosecha.Las más altas correlaciones con el rendimiento de azúcar (salinidad antes de la siembra) correspondieron a la salinidad de la capa promedio 0-60 cm (R: 0,27- 0,84 [(p<0,01]); la capa menos salina de 0-60 cm (R: 0,47 [p<0,01]-0,82 [p<0,01]); la capa más salina de 0-60 cm, (R: 0,04-0,81 [p<0,01]). Conclusión: es suficiente muestrear y analizar los suelos sólo hasta la profundidad de 60 cm antes de la siembra.

Simulação computacional como ferramenta de auxílio ao projeto: aplicação em edifícios naturalmente ventilados no clima de Natal/RN

Natural air ventilation is the most import passive strategy to provide thermal comfort in hot and humid climates and a significant low energy strategy. However, the natural ventilated building requires more attention with the architectural design than a conventional building with air conditioning systems, and the results are less reliable. Therefore, this thesis focuses on softwares and methods to predict the natural ventilation performance from the point of view of the architect, with limited resource and knowledge of fluid mechanics. A typical prefabricated building was modelled due to its simplified geometry, low cost and occurrence at the local campus. Firstly, the study emphasized the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, to simulate the air flow outside and inside the building. A series of approaches were developed to make the simulations possible, compromising the results fidelity. Secondly, the results of CFD simulations were used as the input of an energy tool, to simulate the thermal performance under different rates of air renew. Thirdly, the results of temperature were assessed in terms of thermal comfort. Complementary simulations were carried out to detail the analyses. The results show the potentialities of these tools. However the discussions concerning the simplifications of the approaches, the limitations of the tools and the level of knowledge of the average architect are the major contribution of this study
