diesel generating set

Thermo-couples can be used to generate electric power using Seebeck effect, in remote areas. This can be done by heating one junction of a thermo-couple in a flame (e.g., of kerosene lamp) and keeping the other junction in air at room temperature. The thermo-emf so generated can..

Hydrocarbon based natural oil trapped in deeper layers of earth's crust is useful to produce many refined petroleum products such as high speed diesel, petrol. Petrol and diesel are commonly burnt in automotive vehicles to generate power for movemen..

The energy produced due to the 'fission of nuclei' of certain heavier elements (such uranium), or by the 'fusion of nuclei' of lighter elements (such as hydrogen), is called nuclear energy . Nuclear reactions generate very large and powerful amounts of energy. They can be used for peacef..

Wave Energy or Sea-wave Energy - Energy from the oceans is also available in the form of oceanic waves or sea-waves. Due to the blowing of wind on the surface of ocean, very fast sea-waves (or water waves) move on its surface. Due to their high speed, sea-waves have a lot of kinetic energy in them...

These are very fine thread-like, coiled filaments uniformly distributed in the nucleoplasm. At the time of cell division, the chromatin becomes thick and ribbon like and are known as chromosomes. The chromosomes contain genes, which are composed of DNA (deoxy-ribonucleic acid). Genes are responsib..

The concept of limits leads to define and describe continuity and derivative of the function. The continuity of a function has practical as well as theoretical importance. We plot graphs by taking the values generated in the laboratory or collected in the field. We connect the plotted p..

Pollution is caused by almost all activities of human beings, either directly or indirectly. Use of mosquito repellent, use of cooking gas, use of diesel / petrol, use of detergent, passing of urine, throwing away wastes, use of pesticides, establishment of a factory or a hospital or a ho..

In the initial set of experiments, Mendel concentrated only on the pattern of inheritance of a single pair of contrasting characters. This pattern of inheritance involving only one pair of contrasting characters is known as monohybrid inheritance. In the first set of experiments..

The electricity produced from flowing water is called Hydroelectric power. The world's first hydroelectric power plant was set up in 1882 in Wisconsin USA. It had a very small output, supplying power only for about 250 light bulbs. But from this small start the production of hydroelectric..
