Influence of Arc Faults on Pressure Production Characteristics in AC Turret of UHV Transformers
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The overpressure caused by arc fault in the oil tank can lead to a transformer explosion. Since the AC turret of transformers serves to connect the transformer windings with the AC busbar, the arc current can be extremely high if an earth fault arc occurs leading to potentially hazardous pressure.

Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.Abstract This article argues that W. E. B. Du Bois grounded his seminal conceptualisation of “the Negro church” in a Pan‐Africanist challenge to how Christian reformers and missionaries' usage of “Darkest Africa” as a metaphor for modern urban vice and poverty denigrated Africa and the African diaspora while promoting a segregated, imperialist version ...

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...

Development of Binderless Fiberboards from Steam-exploded and Oxidized Oil Palm Wastes
BioResources, 2014 Binderless fiberboards were made from oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) empty fruit bunches with two treatments: steam explosion and Fenton reagent oxidation. Fiberboards were prepared with a targeted density of 1.20 g/cm3 and a thickness of 4 mm. A factorial
