Abstract:
The aim is to link the unit <i>ampere </i>to the elementary charge <i>e</i>, a true invariant of nature. The high level of control over single electrons needed to realise such a quantum current standard has led to much interest in devices employing Coulomb blockade of tunnelling[2]. The time taken for an electron to tunnel through the barriers defining the dot, limits the output current of such devices to several pA[3,4]. A substantial increase in the current would allow these devices to be of a real practical use as a standard. This thesis explores another pumping mechanism for single charges

Abstract:
This thesis studies the optimal design for a photovoltaic-powered medium-head (30 meters) water pumping system, with the emphasis on improving the efficiency and reducing the maintenance requirements of the electrical subsystem. The reduction of maintenance requirements is realized by replacing the conventional brush-type permanent magnet dc motor with a brushless dc (BLDC) motor. Different BLDC motor control techniques such as position-sensorless operation, sinusoidal and trapezoidal excitations are investigated. The improvement in efficiency is achieved by maximizing the output power from th

The HCP floats in a stream of flowing water while tethered to the bank. The focus of the study was to identify and analyse the factors influencing the HCP. The HCP was then optimized for rural application. Data acquisition took place through experimentation on a full scale experimental platform according to a c

In this thesis, I investigate cascaded Raman fibre amplifiers (RFAs) pumped with shaped optical pulses delivered from a Yb doped fibre MOPA source. RFAs offer the potential to generate gain at any arbitrary wavelength with an appropriate pump source, limited only by the fibre’s transparency range. The use of a counter-propagating signal and pump creates a continuous gain, despite the instantaneous nature of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). A high power Yb doped fibre source emitting around the 1050 to 1100 nm region offers a flexible pump source that can in principle be used to generate gain

Abstract:
Electric pumps are extensively used in many industrial and commercial applications worldwide and account for about twenty percent of the world’s electrical energy demand. The useful energy consumed by the pumps is less than what they demand due to inefficiency caused by a number of reasons including the mismatch between the rated operating conditions and their actual operating conditions. Some studies including those done by the US Department of Energy, show that as much as 30-50% of energy consumed by pumping systems could be saved through equipment and control changes in the pumping systems.

碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>土木與防災研究所<br>96<br>Of the flood control pumping stations are the last line of defense. In recent years climate change caused abnormal rainfall intensity larger and became a major test to the pump stations with protection level of five years in return period. To ensure the function of pump stations, in addition to regular maintenance and continuous personnel training, establishment of management systems and appropriate operation mechanisms are essential factors. The study used Storm Water Management Model to simulate the runoff from catchments, the number of activated pumps an
