A SIMPLE METHOD TO ESTIMATE THE WIND POTENTIAL OF A REGION » Abstract. Starting from the conviction that the problem of wind power conversion should deserve a greater attention in Romania, the authors present a simple method to estimate the wind potential of a region. An evaluation and comparison modality for the wind power potential on different geographical zones is proposed, as well as a method to estimate the useful part of this potential. The illustration is made by processing measured data, supplied by INMH, for 23 meteorological stations, during a month (March, 2007). » Keywords: wind energy, potential, estimation
ADAPTIVE CONTROL ARCHITECTURE FOR REDUNDANT ROBOTS » Abstract. In this paper, a control architecture with variable structure for redundant robot is proposed. The cooperation of the robot’s actuators, to realise a robot task is made by the sub-tasks dynamically allocation for each sub-controller of the architecture. The control algorithm of a sub-controller with self-governing is based on robot Jacobian matrix. The algorithm for the estimation of Jacobian matrix’s elements uses the covariance matrix. In this paper, the factorization technique of the covariance matrix for the identification of the redundant directions inside the actuator motion space is used. » Keywords: sub-controllers, sub-tasks dynamical allocation, redundancy

ASSESSMENT OF THE TWO PHASE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS IN THE VAPORIZER TUBES BY SEVERAL MODELS » Abstract. Flowing fluids undergo boiling in many of case in which we transfer heat to fluids moving tubes. When we use the terms boiler, steam generator, or evaporator we usually refer to equipment that involves heat transfer within tubes .the prediction of heat transfer coefficients in these systems is often essential. The object of this research is aimed to the assessment of the heat transfer coefficient in the vaporizer tubes in saturated regime by several models. Two mechanisms appear in this regime: the nucleate boiling and the convection boiling; these two mechanisms can coexist or one can be dominant. Every model gives the interaction between the two mechanisms and precise their variations according to the different thermohydraulics parameters. The finalized trial program concerns the prevision of the heat transfer coefficients; and the evaluation of the nature of two phase flow in the vaporizer tubes. The application on the vaporizer tubes of the dynamic boiler of the thermal power station Sonelgaz - Annaba, Algeria and the comparison between the models gave us a very important databank. » Keywords: two phase flow, saturation, heat transfer coefficient, convective boiling, nucleate boiling

INDUSTRIAL REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF ROMANIA IN EU CONTEXT » Abstract. Considering the importance of regional development in the context of Romania's accession to EU, the present paper highlights, using the newest theories in the field, an original model for determining the industrial regional development degree. The paper aims to answer the problem of evaluating the industrial regional development of Romania, presenting the results of a comparative analyze, from the point of view of industrial production for which the most recent statistical data, meaning the 1995 and 2004 years were used. Analyze is then completed with the calculation of an aggregate indicator called the degree of industrial development, using the theory of subtle sets. There are changes concerning the grouping of the regions, the structure of the principal components and the value of aggregate indicator from a period to another. » Keywords: industrial regional development, subtle sets, principal components analyze, cluster analyze
SEMICONDUCTORS BASED ON CONTROLLED DOPED BARIUM TITANATE (1st PART) » Abstract. This paper presents the experimental results of doping barium titanate in order to obtain a semiconductor. The semi conducting materials based on controlled doped barium titanate are termosensible materials with a strong dependence of electric resistivity with temperature (PTCR effect) and may be used for obtaining electronic components. These materials can be elaborated by method of solid state reaction. The controlled doping of barium titanate, which is an insulating material in its pure state, can lead to semiconductorial or dielectrical properties in terms of the type of doping elements and the level of doping. There were used as doping elements Pb, Ca, Co, Se, Zr. The calcined powders and sintered compacts were micro structurally characterized by X-Ray diffractometry and electric measured. The application of these materials is large: in electronic and electro technical industry, telecommunication, automatization, automobile industry. » Keywords: semiconductors, barium titanate, controlled doping
