In Kenya’s new long-term development blue print Vision 2030, the Kenyan government aims at transforming the country from a low income country to a new developed middle income country. However according to World Bank, the current economic growth rate currently stands at 5.8%.This therefore depicts…

Electric power is critical for running household utilities; these utilities moderate household living conditions to provide reasonable comfort and convenient habitation. Households thus, derive values or utility not from the direct consumption of energy such as electricity, but rather from the services that are produced…

Over the last few decades, renewable energy sources have surged into the energy arena, providing viable alternatives to the non-renewable energy sources that humans have been consuming at alarming rates. Renewable energy is a source of energy that does not deplete as it is used;…

Power control can be a useful tool in ensuring energy efficient spatial reuse, while minimising the energy consumption. These functionalities are quite similar to those of cell zooming. Cell zooming is nevertheless quite different from power control in many ways. Whereas power control focuses on…

It’s the beginning of August. In Davenport, Florida, where Budget Air Supply was founded, things have been sultry and sweltering. Even for those of who love the sunshine and thrive when basking in the warm, summer heat, there is such as thing as too hot…

Because of its robustness, simplicity and reliability, induction motors (IM) have been widely used as electromechanical devices for energy conversion. Among the types of induction motor most used are the squirrel-cage and wound-rotor, the latter being less employed, but with advantageous characteristics over other types…

Abstract This project is the first graduation project for the department of energy engineering, it shows a basic research study project that show the advantages and disadvantages of using cow manure as bio-fuel to create energy, this project is considered the introduction to a more…

Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the effects of magnetic field and rhizobial inoculant on the Alfalfa’s growth parameters (leaves, nodules number, shoot and root lengths) and nitrogen fixation process. Inoculated and non-inoculated seed with Sinorhizobium meliloti were subjected to 0.75mT and 1.5mT intensities…

Globally, the energy sector is shaking hands with emerging robotic technologies for clean, cheap, and reliable energy, creating diffusion of ideas within the sector; consequently, Nigeria as a compelling member in the energy sector needs to embrace these pathways as it holds the capacity to…

The economic growth and the potential increase in population is on the higher side since the beginning of the 20th century. There are statistics that among the overall energy consumption, the building energy consumption is seen increase over 50% in recent time. For instance, the…
