Concept Of Hydropower

Concept Of Hydropower:

The hydropower is basically the utilization of the potential energy of water to the electrical energy in which dams and large water reservoirs are constructed.These dams are constructed in hilly for proper mechanical pressure is needed to convert into electrical energy.A water turbine is fitted on the dam that is connected with the transformer.The work of the transformer is gain the mechanical energy from the water turbine and to covert it into the electrical energy.And after that transformer sends the electricity to the transmission towers.


There is also the modern concept of the offshore of hydropower in which the tidal currents and through the power waves of the sea water,the electrical energy is generated.Another component is the pumped storage hydropower is the advanced technology deployed on the areas where the demand of electricity is to high.The electrical energy is generated by flowing the water from the higher reservoir to the lower reservoir.Due to the movements of water the mechanical pressure is produced then the water turbine utilize it to convert it to the electrical enaergy.So the reservoirs not only plays the crucial role in the storage of energy but it also an important part of the hydropower projects.The main advantages of the reservoir that it has sources from which it can take water such as water stored from the rain water.

The another component is the Run-of-River hydropower in which the water turbine moves with the flow of the the river.And the electricity is directly utilized.To make the hydrpower system more environment friendly the fish ladder is constructed which provides the way for fishes to travel.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF CHOCOLATE

Image
  HEALTH BENEFITS OF CHOCOLATE: Chocolate is the healthiest product which is very good for the health and for increasing the testorone level.Because after doing the workout the consumption of the chocolate along with milk increase the strength as well as it also maintains the blood pressure,improves the functionality of brain and heart,lowering the bad cholestrol,reducing the resistance of insulin,developing the capability of brain to create connection with neurons.  The compound which are beneficial are: flavanols polyphenols theobromine Dark chocolate consist of the compounds such as flavanols,theobromine that lowers the Low Density Lipoprotein(LDL) i.e the bad cholestrol and higher the High Density Lipoprotien(HDL) is the good cholestrol.As per the report of American Heart association consumption dark chocolate with almonds and nuts damages the LDL cholestrol which is beneficial for the health and it is also decreases the rsk of haert diseases.Inflammation is the part of th...

RESISTANCE FROM CRACKS IN BEAMS

Image
  RESISTANCE FROM CRACKS IN BEAMS: Concrete is the material which has compressive property. It is the brittle material which lead to sudden cracks in the structural components such as beam and columns. In beam the inclined cracks appear are the shear cracks. But they are resisted or controlled at side of compression zone because of the placement of reinforcements. This is the reason the beam bearing capacity increases and is able to bear large amount of  loads. The reason of bending is because of existence of steel reinforcements are placed.     If there chance of load applied from opposite direction.This problem occurs in the old structural houses.The hoging cases also appears in the ships and under ground water tanks of houses because of the load applied by the water in the opposite direction.So to eradicate this steel bars are also placed on the tension zone.The cracks which appears on the center of the beam are flexural cracks.The flexural appears due to the...
