Induction motors (IM) have been a fundamental part of industrial applications for over a century and the number of their applications continues to expand. A significant amount of the world’s total energy expense is consumed by this kind of motor. Hence, it is very important to increase the energy efficiency of these machines. Due to its good performance, field-oriented control (FOC) is the most common strategy to control IM. FOC requires references for stator current and rotor magnetic fluxes. For velocity regulation, a velocity reference is used instead of a stator current reference. However, at motor start-up or when a change of torque is required, it would be convenient for these references to be variable in order to reduce energy consumption. In this work, it is shown that this is indeed the case, and a technique to find optimal time-variable references for stator currents and magnetic rotor fluxes to reduce energy consumption is proposed. It is shown that, depending on the mechanical load, an energy reduction of 20–45% can be achieved.

AbstractThe paper analyses the role of control and monitoring of electro-energetic equipment in order to reduce operational costs, increase profits and reduce carbon emissions. The role of SCADA and EcoStruxure Power systems is presented and analysed taking into account the energy consumption and its savings. The paper presents practical and modern solutions to reduce energy consumption by up to 53%, mass by up to 47% and increase the life of the equipment by adjusting the electrical parameters. The Integrated Navigation System has allowed an automatic control and an efficient management. For ships, the implementation of an energy efficiency design index and new technologies was required for the GREEN SHIP project.

Current consumption of cloud computing has attracted more and more attention of scholars. The research on Hadoop as a cloud platform and its energy consumption has also received considerable attention from scholars. This paper presents a method to measure the energy consumption of jobs that run on Hadoop, and this method is used to measure the effectiveness of the implementation of periodic tasks on the platform of Hadoop. Combining with the current mainstream of energy estimate formula to conduct further analysis, this paper has reached a conclusion as how to reduce energy consumption of Hadoop by adjusting the split size or using appropriate size of workers (servers). Finally, experiments show the effectiveness of these methods as being energy-saving strategies and verify the feasibility of the methods for the measurement of periodic tasks at the same time.

Background: Energy Efficient wireless routing has been an area of research particularly to mitigate challenges surrounding performance in category of Wireless Networks. Objectives: The Opportunistic Routing (OR) technique was explored in recent times and exhibits benefits over many existing protocols and can significantly reduce energy consumption during data communication with very limited compromise on performance. Methods : Using broadcasting nature of the wireless medium, OR practices to discourse two foremost issues of variable link quality and unpredictable node agility in constrained WSNs. OR has a potential to reduce delay in order to increase the consistency of data delivery in network. Results : Various OR based routing protocols have shown varying performances. In this paper, a detailed conceptual and experimental analysis is carried out on different protocols that uses OR technique for providing more clear and definitive view on performance parameters like Message Success Rate, Packet Delivery Ratio and Energy Consumption.

According to the vacuum bursting process for fresh chestnut shell and requirements for relevant vacuum system, a vacuum system of steam jet pump was designed with a start-up jet pump attached to it. Of which the waste gas from ejector was used for reheating in the bursting process to lead the vacuum bursting unit to run more reliably and stably with efficiency improved and energy consumption reduced. The rate of bursting came up to 95% in the process test.
