The annual average of solar photovoltaic energy in Phoenix is 6,720

Engineering
1 answer:
Dovator [93]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The amount of money saved is $22,075.2

Explanation:

The solar voltaic energy in Phoenix, S_E = 6,720 Wh/m²/day

The area on the roof available for solar panels, A = 500 m²

The percentage of the energy received by the solar panels converted into electricity, η = 15% = 0.15

The cost of electricity, C = $0.12/kWh

The number of days in a year, t = 365 days

Therefore, the maximum area covered by the solar panel = A = 500 m²

The total solar photovoltaic energy received by the solar panels, 'E', in a year is given as follows;

E = S_E × A × t

By plugging in the values of the variables, we get;

E = 6,720 Wh/m²/day × 500 m² × 365 days = 1,226,400,000 Wh

The electrical energy generated, E_e = η × E

∴ E_e = 0.15 × 1,226,400,000 Wh = 183960000 Wh = 183,960 kWh

The amount of money saved = The cost of electricity generated = C × E_e

C × E_e = $0.12/kWh × 183,960 kWh = $22,075.2

∴ The amount of money saved = C × E_e = $22,075.2

Assume a program requires the execution of 50 x 10^6 FP instructions, 110 x 10^6 INT instructions, 80 x 10^6 Load/Store (L/S) in
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

We can not improve CPI of FP instructions when we run the program two times faster because it would be negative.

Explanation:

Processor clock rate = 2 GHz

Execution Time =   ∑  (\frac{Clock cyles}{Clock rate})

Clock cycles can be determined using following formula

Clock cycles = (CPI_{FP} x  No. FP instructions )+ ( CPI_{INT} x No. INT instructions) + ( CPI_{L/S}  x No. L/S instructions ) + ( CPI_{branch} x No. branch instructions)

Clock cycles = ( 50 x 10^{6} x 1) + (  110 x 10^{6} x 1) + ( 80 x 10^{6} x 4) + ( 16 x 10^{6} x 2)

Clock cycles = 512 x 10⁶

So,Initial Execution time for FP instructions is,

    = \frac{512(10^{6}) }{2(10^{9}) }

 Initial execution Time =  256 x 10⁻³

For 16 processors ,

clock cycle = 512 x 10⁶

Execution Time = 256 x 10⁻³

To run the program two times faster, half the number of clock cycles

(\frac{Clockcycles}{2} )=   (CPI_{FP} x  No. FP instructions )+ ( CPI_{INT} x No. INT instructions) + ( CPI_{L/S}  x No. L/S instructions ) + ( CPI_{branch} x No. branch instructions)

CPI_{FP improved} x No. FP instructions  =  (\frac{Clockcycles}{2} ) -[ ( CPI_{INT} x No. INT instructions) + ( CPI_{L/S}  x No. L/S instructions ) + ( CPI_{branch} x No. branch instructions)]

CPI_{FP improved} x 50 x 10^{6}  = ( \frac{512(10)^{6} }{2} ) - [ (  110 x 10^{6} x 1) + ( 80 x 10^{6} x 4) + ( 16 x 10^{6} x 2)]

CPI_{FP improved} x 50 x 10^{6}  =  - 206 x 10^{6}

CPI_{FP improved}  = - 206 x 10^{6} / 50 x 10^{6}

CPI_{FP improved} = - 4.12 < 0

A prototype boat is 30 meters long and is designed to cruise at 9 m/s. Its drag is to be simulated by a 0.5-meter-long model pul
Ghella [55]

Answer:

a) 1.16 m/s

b)  1/216000

c)  (√15)/6480000

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Length of boat prototype, lp = 30 m

Speed of boat prototype = 9 m/s

Length of boat model, lm= 0.5 m

a) lm/lp = 0.5/30 = 1/60 = ∝

(vm/vp) = ∝^(1/2) = √∝ = (1/60)^(1/2)

vm = 9 × (1/60)^(1/2) = 1.16 m/s

b) The ratio of the model to prototype drag, Fm/Fp, is given as follows;

Fm/Fp = (vm/vp)²×(lm/lp)² = ∝³

Fm/Fp = (1/60)³ = 1/216000

c) The ratio of the model to prototype power  pm/p_p = (Fm/Fp) × (vm/vp) = ∝³×√∝

The ratio of the model to prototype power  pm/p_p = √(1/60) × (1/60)³

pm/p_p = √(1/60) × (1/60)³ = (√15)/6480000

Do the coil resistances have any effect on the plots?
PolarNik [594]
Because of the skin depth effect, the current at high frequency tends to flow at very low depth from radius. Then at high frequency the effective cross section of the wire is narrower than at DC.

Fro example skin depth at 100 kHz is 0.206 mm (0.008”), a wire more thicker than AWG26 could be a waste of copper, better use a bunch of thin wire (Litz wire) to rise the Q factor.
