1. TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF USING A VARIABLE-FREQUENCY DRIVE IN MICRO-IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT Irrigation is essential for the development of crops in regions with scarcity or irregular rainfall distribution, enabling high productivity. However, the use of water resources and electrical energy leads to a concern with irrigation efficiency. Pressure demand varies during the operations of irrigation systems and the appropriate pressure can be r

2. Efficiency of electricity distribution companies
Abstract Purpose After assessing papers on efficiency, most of the studies available are focused on the analysis of efficiency measures, without providing a deep discussion of the factors that determine efficiency. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of Brazilian electricity distribution companies based on a structural model that enables the identifi

3. Impact of the inclusion of variable CO2 cost in the distribution network design
Abstract Paper aims This study aims to evaluate the economic-financial impact that the inclusion of environmental variable CO2 cost attributed to transportation (fuel consumption) and manufacturing activities (electricity consumption) represents in a distribution network optimization design. Originality This is the first work carried out in Brazil to prese

4. Power Flow Analysis and Self-recovery of Electrical Energy Distribution Network Using Artificial Neural Networks
ABSTRACT A computational model for self-recovery of electricity distribution network was developed to simulate it, emulated by the IEEE 123 node model. The electrical system considered has automatic switches capable of identifying a momentary failure in the line and finding the best reconfiguration for its reclosing. An artificial neural network (ANN), backp

5. Effects of the Photovoltaic Distributed Generation on Electricity Distribution System Voltage - Updated Review
ABSTRACT Concerns about the environment and a growing demand for electricity have led to the intensive search for renewable energy sources. Photovoltaic solar energy, in the form of distributed generation, has shown a very high growth rate to an extent that in some regions it will be adopted on a large scale, thus being responsible for the supply of a signif

6. Study of the electricity consumption reduction of a compressed air system: the case of a steelmaking company
Abstract This work aims to reduce the energy consumption and thus increase the availability of blast furnace compressors of a steelmaking company, located in Alto Paraopeba region in Minas Gerais state, Brazil, through the elimination of waste points in the compressed air distribution. In order to develop this work, an ultrasound test in the compressed air l

7. Evaluation of a Thermochromic Liquid Crystal for Use as a Temperature Sensor for Components of Electrical Systems
Connectors used in electrical power distribution systems should allow the passage of electricity continuously and without interruption. However, this does not always occur due to failure caused by improper assembly and/or corrosion of the materials employed, which reflects the quality of service. Notable among the new detection technologies that have been st

8. Comparative study of energy costs in irrigation according to the new brazilian electricity tariff model
ABSTRACT The tariff flags on Brazil came into force in January 2015, applied to all electrical distribution agents of the national interconnected system (SIN) and all final consumers are being charged for this new model. Given this, the cost of electricity in irrigation suffered representative additions involving searches of alternatives, such as the use of

9. Comparison of polymers and ceramics in new and discarded electrical insulators: reuse and recycling possibilities
The expansion and maintenance of electricity distribution networks generates large amounts of waste, much of it in the form of discarded insulators that are not reused or recycled. This paper describes the results of tests on used and new ceramic and polymeric insulators to verify if their exposure to weathering justifies their replacement. In new and used c

10. Geração distribuída aplicada à edificações : edifícios de energia zero e o caso do laboratório de ensino da FEC-Unicamp / Distributed generation applied to buildings : net zero energy buildings and the case of the laboratory at FEC-Unicamp
Electricity consumption in Brazil increased 47% in the last decade, and it is estimated that it will increase 55.6% until 2020. Most of the electricity generated in the country is based on large hydroelectric dams, located away from the major cities. The planned expansion of the generation park to meet this increase in the demand is also based on this model,

11. Por dentro da Gaiola de Faraday: estudos e ideias sobre a estrutura da matéria (1836-1838)
This research deals with experimental practices developed by Michael Faraday, held from 1836 until early 1838, focusing mainly on the experiment, which would later be known as the "Faraday cage". We analyzed the Experimental Researches in Electricity (ERE), in which are recorded reflections and experiments that were subsequently presented to the Royal Societ

12. Distributed generators performance during short-circuits considering fault ride-through requirements / Desempenho de geradores distribuídos durante curtos-circuitos considerando requisitos de suportabilidade a afundamentos de tensão = : Distributed generators performance during short-circuits considering fault ride-through requirements
The increase of distributed generation penetration in distribution systems not only helps to diversify the electrical matrix but also brings both technical and economic benefits. Yet, it also raises worries related to energy supply reliability. For wind power plants into the medium and high voltage networks there are the grid codes for "Fault Ride-Through" w
