Transformer oil deterioration is a number of changes in the insulation fluid which occur during operation of a transformer. These usually result in degradation of physical, chemical and operational properties of the oil. The quality of the oil deteriorates to the point when it becomes apparent that the fluid is reaching the end of itsRead More
Wind energy is one of alternative sources for human livelihood. Scientists found out that it has the lowest impact on the greenhouse effect. Wind technology doesn’t demand use of a large number of exhaustible resources. They don’t cause environmental damage as roughly as other energy providers, such as fossil fuel plants. So it is theRead More
Wind turbines are one of the most powerful and widespread energy source all over the world. Actually humans used the energy of the wind centuries and even millennia ago. However modern technologies of wind power service became available with nowadays rapid industry development. Wind Turbines in the World People came up with wind energy useRead More
