Introduction

Structures such as large buildings can create its own unique internal environment that can significantly impact the comfort and health of its occupants. After many years of investigating and studying building infrastructures, engineers and designers have increased their understanding and knowledge on the environmental conditions that exists within the building in relation to its physical properties. For the same reason, a solid background in building physics is an integral part of a building’s design, particularly in this modern era wherein green buildings are the rising trend. Most modern buildings integrate building physics prior to construction ...

Ultraviolet light (UV light) is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is located between visible light and X-rays in the electromagnetic spectrum. It is invisible to the human eye, and has a frequency greater than that of visible light but lesser than X-rays. It has a wavelength ranging from about 10 nm to 400 nm (ISO, 2007). UV light is a part of the radiation that comes from the sun. It can also be produced artificially by electric arcs, black lights, tanning lamps and mercury vapor lamps. The name Ultraviolet literally translates to “beyond violet”, as it has a ...

Introduction

This report has been structured and submitted to give insight regarding issues in health that are related to lighting and specifically the cost-benefit analysis that accrue due to the use of LED devices in the medical facilities. This is having in mind the fact that the research is linked to the people who serve as the medical practitioners and or engineers in the medical facilities. It applies the scholarly findings and analysis of these findings in a way that aims at coming up with clear reasons as to why the LED lighting should be considered as the best alternative ...

Benefits of Green Schools in Kuwait

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Kuwait is a country located in the Middle East, which is a region characterized by severe water shortages as its located in the middle of a desert. Also, nearly all the electrical energy consumed in Kuwait is generated from fossil fuels such as natural gas and diesel. This situation poses several challenges. For example, the lack of enough clean water for domestic use could lead to serious problems such as waterborne diseases, such as cholera or typhoid. Also, water shortages can affect businesses such as agriculture and hospitality businesses. On the other hand, over reliance on ...

Invented and patented by Thomas Edison in 1879, the incandescent bulb comprises of a wired filament placed inside a glass bulb (“The History”). When electricity is provided to the filament, it heats up thereby making the bulb glow and emit light (“Incandescent, LED”). The wired filament of the incandescent bulb was initially made using carbon obtained from a cotton thread that was uncoated. This filament gave the bulb a lifespan of just 14.5 hours. Later, the carbon filament was made using bamboo, which gave the bulb a longer lifespan of up to 1200 hours (“The History”). Much later, in ...

If one compares ornament with the language, its basic movements are grammar, and motives - vocabulary. The grammar of Ornament as grammar of the language is more versatile, while the vocabulary is colored with local cultural identity; it can be learned. Ornament is present in the ancient aesthetics and religious manifestations of animalistic cults, such as tribal tattoos and totem sculpture. Each civilization gave the shape to it and made a sign of culture. The fact that ornament in the 20th century was rejected by modernism, confirms its importance. Ornament is subject to certain laws and principles. As historians ...

Abstract

This paper analyzes the importance of generator synchronization to the power grid, the required conditions to perform this procedure and the consequences of imprecise synchronization. For a generator to be synchronized to a grid, the voltage magnitude, frequency, phase sequence and phase angle must match. Manual synchronization depends on an operator to modify generator voltage and frequency, confirm phase sequences of generator and grid, and monitor phase angle difference to timely initiate breaker closure. Automatic synchronizers perform all these function through a computerized system that consists of complex algorithms and control systems, and are categorized in phase lock type ...

Introduction

There are environmental chemical processes which require light to react. These processes are called photochemical reactions. Photochemical reaction is commonly initiated due to the absorption of solar energy or light. When molecules absorb energy in the form of light, the atoms are converted in a transient excited state (Larson & Weber, 1994). This transition state or excited has completely different physical and chemical properties with the initial state of the molecule. The excited states also have more tendencies to react since they are considered stronger acids and stronger reductants that the initial state of the molecule. The excited state of ...

Introduction

Siting and Designing decisions for hotels and resorts are major decisions because they influence a considerable number of people and animals both in the current and future generations. Siting and design decisions have a major hand viability and conservation of ecosystems as well as the financial success of the specific hotel or resort. Biodiversity plays an important role in facilitating a hotel’s operational activities. Inside the hotel, the food, furniture and amenities in the spa are all elements of diversity. Outside the hotel, plants and animals (that are also elements of diversity) make a major contribution in making ...

Solving Social Problems: Solar Energy in Rural India

The developing world grapples with the lack of access to electricity. Third world countries have poor electrical infrastructure which is still in the nascent stages of development. As a result, majority of people, especially those living in rural areas, have no access to electricity. The reach of the electrical grid in countries is limited to towns, and the poor who have access to electrical power supply suffer frequent and prolonged power blackouts. As a result, people in such countries result to unclean and unhealthy means of lighting, such as kerosene and diesel generators. The kerosene lamps cause respiratory problems ...
