method for biomedical energy harvesting system equipped in footwear has been proposed‚ which scavenges power from human gait motion‚ especially from the hell strike‚ by means of a power transmission system and a special generator. Once the electricity is generated‚ the equipped shoe can use the electrical power for rehabilitation purpose such as thermal and cold therapy. Two effective‚ automatically controlled heating and cooling instruments embedded in the shoe ’s sole maintain proper temperature

source of electricity is a major prerequisite for a sustained and successful economic development effort and poverty reduction. In Bangladesh‚ 90 million of the populations out of 140 million do not have direct access to electricity and remaining 50 million people have access but reliable and quality power is still beyond their reach (BPDB‚ 2007). In order to achieve the growth rate‚ availability of a reasonably priced and reliable source of electricity is a prerequisite. Present generation of electric

PRINCIPLE OF GENERATION‚ TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION OF HIGH AC VOLTAGES INTRODUCTION The potential benefits of electrical energy supplied to a number of consumers from a common generating system were recognized shortly after the development of the ‘dynamo’‚ commonly known as the generator. The first public power station was put into service in 1882 in London (Holborn). Soon a number of other public supplies for electricity followed in other developed countries. The early systems

Though Nepal has not yet been able to tap even one percent of its potential electricity capacity and 60 % of Nepal’s population is still deprived of electricity. It is fascinating to note that Nepal’s start in 1911 in the hydropower generation almost dates back to a century. As a cheap renewable source of energy with negligible environments impacts‚ small hydropower has an important role to play in Nepal’s

This is both slowing the pace of economic activity and causing public unrest with prolonged outages of electricity and gas. Capacity utilization in some key industries has fallen to nearly 50 percent. Worst affected is the fertilizer industry‚ which faces interruptions to its gas supply and forced closures. Pakistan has the capacity to produce more than one
