Journal ArticleDOI
Pumped hydro energy storage system: A technological review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the existing global pumped hydro energy storage capacities, technological development, and hybrid systems and recommended the best possible options for small autonomous island grids and massive energy storage, where the energy efficiency of PHES varies in practice between 70% and 80%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluctuating fluid forces acting on two circular cylinders in a tandem arrangement at a subcritical Reynolds number
TL;DR: In this article, the aerodynamic characteristics of two circular cylinders in a tandem arrangement were investigated experimentally in a uniform flow at a Reynolds number of 6.5 × 10 4, which is within the range in which fluid forces acting on a single cylinder are comparatively insensitive to change in the Reynolds number.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerodynamic Characteristics of Two Side-by-Side Circular Cylinders and Application of Wavelet Analysis on the Switching Phenomenon
TL;DR: In this paper, the aerodynamic characteristics of two stationary cylinders, both circular and square, in a side-by-side arrangement were investigated experimentally in a uniform flow at a Reynolds number of 5.5×10 4, although the square cylinder results are rather limited.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feasibility study of a wind-pv-diesel hybrid power system for a village
TL;DR: In this paper, a wind-pv-diesel hybrid power system was designed for a village in Saudi Arabia which is presently powered by a diesel power plant consisting of eight diesel generating sets of 1,120kW each.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wake of two interacting circular cylinders: A review
Yu Zhou,Md. Mahbub Alam +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a compendium of previous studies from a perspective distinct from both Zdravkovich (1977) and Sumner (2010), and provide the full picture of the flow in terms of a number of regimes.
