Effect of Data Length on Estimation of Probable Maximum Precipitation Using Hershfield Method
Abstract: Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) represents the greatest depth of precipitation for a given duration that is physically possible over a given size storm area at a particular geographical location and at a particular time of year. PMP is used for estimating probable maximum flood which, in turn, is used for design of major hydraulic structures such as dams and spillways, flood protection works and nuclear power plants. One of the …

ASSESSING THE EFFICACY OF BIO-COAGULANTS IN WATER TREATMENT.
Abstract: The study was designed to investigate the efficacy of Bio-Coagulants in water treatment settling tanks using alum (the commercially available coagulant) as a control for comparison. One of the most important steps in the treatment of water is coagulation, which is utilized to react with organic materials in raw water and destabilize suspended particles. Coagulants, like alum, are frequently used because they lessen the repulsive force between particulate matter, promoting …

A Review on Distribution Feeder and Designs
Abstract: An increase in the number of inverter-interfaced photovoltaic (PV) generators on existing distribution feeders affects the design, operation, and control of the distribution systems. The existing distribution system analysis tools are capable of supporting only snapshot and quasi-static analyses. Capturing the dynamic effects of the PV generators during the variation in the distribution system states is necessary when studying the effects of controller bandwidths, multiple voltage correction devices, and anti-islanding. …
