Sunlight is the most abundant renewable energy resource with
an intensity of approximately 1kW/m² and over 1.5×10²²J
(15,000 Exajoules) impinging earth’s surface everyday. This
enormous energy is 11,538 times greater than the daily
consumption of 1.3EJ of the world. Earth's ultimate recoverable oil resource is 3 trillion barrels,
TURBO AIR CONDITIONER
Consider any normal car air-conditioning system. According to the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), an automobile is used on an average for 249 hours annually and air conditioner usage is about 43% to 49% of the vehicle usage.
The United States currently lacks a truly efficient means for people to travel long distances in a timely manner.
To solve this issue, I propose to build a high speed rail network that would eventually connect all the major cities in the country.
"Digitally Timed Gas Mileage" is my invention for today's interesting car culture. It will tell you how much time (hours,min,sec) is left until you have to refuel your car. This will replace the empty/full gauge with a digital clock, showing how much time is left.
The objective will be the design and construction of an “Ambulatory Ice Cream Vending Machine, with integrated Refrigeration, moved by Human Power”. The project will be part of a student group of Mechanical Engineering, of the University UTESA, Dominican Republic. The team will be lead by Prof. Eduardo Sagredo.
With today's society basing all new advancements and technologies on renewable energy, clean energy and energy efficiency, "going green" is the new future.
Hydrogen is the most abundant resource on Earth so implementing this as a new fuel will greatly benefit our environment in numerous ways.
The designs provided herein are of a sound location detection device.
The purpose of this product is to identify the location of origin of a particular sound in any environment.
Why struggle through the air when it can be swept out of your way in front of your vehicle? If you have ever driven in the slip stream of a truck you will know you don't need to be so heavy on the gas.
Idea is based on gravitational force, water and buoyancy. These three natural forces are present all over the world and will never end. In this Idea power project these three forces are used for the production of electricity, Gravitational force.
This invention relates to 2° order biquad/universal continuous time IF analog active filters for telecommunications and active full self-compensation techniques to improve the frequency range, the stability and/or the selectivity of the filters with a very low, or as if zero, cost.
