摘要:

The rate of growth in the demand for power in many developing countries is alarming. Some are facing unprecedented power shortages, which are increasingly hindering the opportunity to fulfil potential economic development. In rural areas, particularly where the agricultural sector is leading the way towards higher per capita incomes, as is the case in many areas of India, the shortages are being felt the most. This trend is likely to continue as demand from rural areas increases through population pressure and development requirements, and may worsen due to the fact that the conventional means of supplying power to these areas i.e. through extension of the centralised grid, is fraught with inefficiencies.

摘要:

The Energy-GNP ratio in India, has an increasing trend which indicates that there is a real need for an all round increase in energy efficiency levels similar to those obtained in developed countries. As prices increase, the ratio declines for a developed country while the reverse is noticed for India. The Mathematical Programming Energy Economy Environment (MPEEE) model is developed to determine the optimum allocation of energy resources and to simultaneously reduce pollution levels. The model is run for different percentage reductions of CO2. At various percentage reductions in CO2, a critical electricity generation capacity is obtained using the model. The model helps to plan for the future in an economically and environmentally optimum way so as to stabilise the ratio.

摘要:

This technical note aims to provide a brief outline of atmospheric turbulence in the lower boundary layer so as to be able to understand the vertical wind profiles above the earth's surface. In addition to the cited references, a bibliography has been added for those wishing to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying principles and concepts.
