five main kinds of renewable energy: biomass‚ hydropower‚ geothermal‚ wind and solar. Solar energy is provide by the sun in the forms of sunlight and heat‚ has been utilized the least even though it is probably the most accessible. However‚ solar energy holds a number of benefits for societies and it has already proven to have positive effects on residential homes and industrial applications. For many years‚ solar energy has been the economic choice for use in many industries where power is required

Activity 5.5a CAD Model Features Part 1 Introduction In order to use CAD effectively as a design tool‚ the designer must have the skills necessary to create‚ edit‚ and manipulate a 3D model of a part in order to create a realistic representation of an imagined object. In this activity you will build on the CAD skills that you learned in Activity 5.2b Introduction to CAD Skills. You will learn about and use additional tools and features available in most CAD programs and apply your new CAD skills to

TECHNICAL PRESENTATION Computer-aided design Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer technology for the design of objects‚ real or virtual. CAD often involves more than just shapes. As in the manual drafting of technical and engineering drawings‚ the output of CAD often must convey also symbolic information such as materials‚ processes‚ dimensions‚ and tolerances‚ according to application-specific conventions. CAD may be used to design curves and figures in two-dimensional ("2D") space;

was a part of NASA’s ERAST programme (Environmental Research Aircraft and Sensor Technology). It was developed by NASA and Californian company AeroVironment Inc. ERAST programme develops pilotless solar powered airplane technology. The HELIOS construction is based upon its predecessors like NASA’s solar plane Pathfinder‚ which was successfully tested a few years prior to HELIOS. Due to its speed HELIOS was able to fly over the same spot for days or weeks‚ therefore‚ in the future such aircrafts could

Solar power and its Importance Solar power is the technology of obtaining usable energy from the light of the Sun. Solar power has been used as a traditional technology for centuries and is coming into widespread use where other power supplies are absent‚ such as in remote locations and in space. Humanity has been able to give good use to solar power thanks to how technology has advanced overtime. Solar power plays an important role in everyday life because it’s currently used in a lot of applications

Concentrated Solar Power An Analysis on Solar Thermal Power and its Application Hassan Almutawa and Chavis Sabin Abstract Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is a renewable energy source that converts the radiation from the Sun into thermal energy. CSP plants collect solar energy throughout the day and can continue to provide electricity for up to six hours after dark using thermal storage. CSP plants can only be built in arid flat areas with a high annual solar radiation rating. Many countries

HISTORY OF SOLAR ENERGY Jake Tutorow Indiana Institute of Technology Fort Wayne‚ IN Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explain the history of solar energy as well as the difficulties faced in acquiring government support and investments for infrastructure and technological gains. The history of solar energy is broken into five distinct categories: Earth energy‚ the ancient solar age‚ the modern solar age‚ solar in the 1950s‚ solar today‚ and agriculture. Earth energy focuses on the understanding
