Procedure Selecting Pumps Running as Turbines in Micro Hydro Plants
Energy Procedia, 2017 Abstract The authors present a combined method using statistical and numerical models for selecting a pump running as turbine in micro hydro plants. The data of the site (head and capacity) allow calculating two coefficients, C Q and C H , which identify the pump to use successfully as turbine in that place.

Two Problems for the Political Inclusion of Animals
Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In recent years, the field of animal ethics has taken a political turn, with scholars arguing that sentient nonhuman animals should be included in the political sphere. This article explores two key challenges arising from this turn towards the political inclusion of animals: the Conflict Problem and the Numbers Problem.

Analytical Prediction Models for Evaluating Pumps-As-Turbines (PaTs) Performance
Energy Procedia, 2017 Abstract: The hydropower sector is moving to the small-scale generation due to the exploitation of the majority water reservoirs with the aim of providing electrical energy in rural zones. Pump-as-Turbines (PaTs) is one of the most interesting technology due to their use for recovering energy in different industrial applications.
