Fish schooling as a basis for vertical axis wind turbine farm design [PDF]
, 2000 Most wind farms consist of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) due to the high power coefficient (mechanical power output divided by the power of the free-stream air through the turbine cross-sectional area) of an isolated turbine.

A unifying view for performance measures in multi-class prediction [PDF]
, 2010 In the last few years, many different performance measures have been introduced to overcome the weakness of the most natural metric, the Accuracy. Among them, Matthews Correlation Coefficient has recently gained popularity among researchers not only in ...

Improved Thermoelectric Cooling Based on the Thomson Effect [PDF]
, 2012 Traditional thermoelectric Peltier coolers exhibit a cooling limit which is primarily determined by the figure of merit, zT. Rather than a fundamental thermodynamic limit, this bound can be traced to the difficulty of maintaining thermoelectric ...

Relationships for Nozzle Performance Coefficients [PDF]
Volume 1B: Gas Turbines, 1979 The relationships between the performance coefficients for flow, kinetic energy, and thrust are developed for the irreversible adiabatic flow through a choked nozzle. The basis of the development is maximum flowrate per unit area and an exit pressure greater than or equal to the exhaust pressure.

Analysis of Performance of Cavitation Models with Analytically Calculated Coefficients [PDF]
Energies, 2021 Cavitation is often simulated using a mixture model, which considers the transport of an active scalar, namely the vapor fraction αv. Source and sink terms of the transport equation of αv, namely vaporization and condensation terms, rule the dynamics of the cavity and are described through different models.

Illustrating the relationship between the coefficient of performance and the coefficient of system performance by means of an R404 supermarket refrigeration system [PDF]
International Journal of Refrigeration, 2016 Because the coefficient of performance (COP) is primarily concerned with the core refrigeration system, using it for optimisation purposes may lead to higher than necessary energy consumption. This hypothesis was studied with a simple equation relating this coefficient to the coefficient of system performance (COSP), and with a software model based on ...

A rigorous approach to the robust design of continuous-time ΣΔ modulators [PDF]
, 2011 In this paper we present a framework for robust design of continuous-time Sigma Delta modulators. The approach allows to find a modulator which maintains its performance ( stability, guaranteed peak SNR, ...) over all the foreseen parasitic effects ...
