Simplified Method for Substation Grounding System Design
No full textThis paper focused 230 66 kV, substation grounding system and calculation results of required parameters at location of Kalay region. The grounding system is essential to protect people working or walking in the vicinity of earthed facilities and equipments against the danger of electric shock. It provides the floor surface either assures an effective insulation from earth potential or effectively equipment to a close mesh grid. Calculations of grounding grid system in the substation area where the top soil layer resistivity is less than the bottom layer resistivity can be less the number of ground rod used in the grid because the value of Ground Potential Rise GPR is insignificantly different. To get desired parameters such as touch and step voltage criteria for safety, earth resistance, grid resistance, maximum grid current, minimum conductor size and electrode size, maximum fault current level and resistivity of soil are designed in detail consideration.

Exploring Effectiveness of Official Development Assistance Comparison Analysis of Developing Countries
No full textThis study examines the effectiveness of foreign aid in developing countries, especially in the healthcare sector. This study also investigates the relationship between foreign aid and infant mortality rate in countries such as Myanmar, Cambodia and Vietnam for 2002 -2015. The empirical results show that there is a negative relationship between foreign aid and infant mortality rate. The foreign aid can be effective with sound governance and lower rate of corruption.
Infant mortality rates can be reduced with good sanitation facilities and decreasing numbers of HIV/AIDS sufferers.
This study applied regression method for analyzing the relationship and provide policy and managerial implications.2

SERVQUAL instrument was adapted and more than 380 questionnaires were distributed to the respondents who had experience visiting the automobile service center in the northern region of Malaysia. The result of the study showed there is a significant relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction where it has explained about 48% of the variation in customer satisfaction. Empathy, reliability, responsiveness, and assurance were found to be important factors in influencing customer satisfaction
Monitoring the microbial community shift throughout the shock changes of hydraulic retention time in an anaerobic moving bed membrane bioreactor
No full textAn anaerobic moving bed membrane bioreactor (AnMBMBR) fed with synthetic domestic wastewater was investigated under hydraulic retention time (HRT) shocks to assess the effects on the microbial (bacteria and archaea) community and reactor performance. 16S rDNA targeted polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) approach was optimized to relate the metabolic and community composition with biogas generation, methane content and COD removal efficiency. From the drastic decrease of HRT (from 8 h to 4 h), the methane production was significantly reduced due to the HRT shock, while the COD removal efficiency was not affected. The enhanced growth of homoacetogenic bacteria, Thermoanaerobacteraceae competes with methanogens under shock period. When the HRT was recovered to 8 h, the methane generation rate was higher than the initial operation before the shock HRT changes, which would be ascribed to the activity of new emerging hydrogenotrophic archaea, Methanocella sp. and Methanofollis sp.

Construction of N-Rich Aminal-Linked Porous Organic Polymers for Outstanding Precombustion CO2 Capture and H2 Purification: A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study
No full textA large number of scientific investigations are needed for developing a sustainable solid sorbent material for precombustion CO(2 )capture in the integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) that is accountable for the industrial coproduction of hydrogen and electricity. Keeping in mind the industrially relevant conditions (high pressure, high temperature, and humidity) as well as good CO2/H-2 selectivity, we explored a series of sorbent materials. An all-rounder player in this game is the porous organic polymers (POPs) that are thermally and chemically stable, easily scalable, and precisely tunable. In the present investigation, we successfully synthesized two nitrogen-rich POPs by extended Schiff-base condensation reactions. Among these two porous polymers, TBAL-POP-2 exhibits high CO2 uptake capacity at 30 bar pressure (57.2, 18.7, and 15.9 mmol g(-1) at 273, 298, and 313 K temperatures, respectively). CO2/H-2 selectivities of TBAL-POP-1 and 2 at 25 C-degrees are 434.35 and 477.93, respectively. On the other hand, at 313 K the CO2/H-2 selectivities of TBAL-POP-1 and 2 are 296.92 and 421.58, respectively. Another important feature to win the race in the search of good sorbents is CO2 capture capacity at room temperature, which is very high for TBAL-POP-2 (15.61 mmol g(-1) at 298 K for 30 to 1 bar pressure swing). High BET surface area and good mesopore volume along with a large nitrogen content in the framework make TBAL-POP-2 an excellent sorbent material for precombustion CO2 capture and H-2 purification.11Nsciescopu

Autonomia ucznia z perspektywy studentów uczących się języka angielskiego jako obcego w kontekście węgierskiej szkoły wyższej
No full textTechnology has provided language learners with opportunities to learn English autonomously. Despite previous studies in the Hungarian context (e.g., Édes 2008; Szőcs 2017), more research on learner autonomy is required in order to find out what might explain university EFL learners’ lack of autonomy and help them become more autonomous. The purpose of this quantitative study was to address the problem by investigating learners’ perceptions of their own and their teachers’ responsibilities in language learning, their perceived abilities and motivation to learn English, their autonomous behaviours outside and inside the classroom, and the relationships between the above variables. The questionnaire was completed by 74 EFL students from a Hungarian university. The data were analysed by SPSS 26.0. The results indicate that in the investigated context, in the EFL learners’ perceptions, teachers were more responsible for their in-class learning than themselves. Nevertheless, the students demonstrated some autonomy both inside and outside class, to an equal extent.Rozwój technologii znacząco zwiększył możliwości uczących się w zakresie autonomicznej nauki języka angielskiego. Chociaż jak dotąd przeprowadzono wiele badań nad autonomią ucznia osadzonych w kontekście węgierskim (e.g., Édes 2008; Szőcs 2017), nadal istnieje potrzeba prowadzenia dalszych badań, które wyjaśnią przyczyny braku autonomii wśród studentów uczących się języka angielskiego jako obcego i pomogą wskazać, w jaki sposób można uczynić ich proces uczenia się bardziej autonomicznym. Celem przedstawionego w artykule badania ilościowego było zanalizowanie sygnalizowanego powyżej problemu poprzez zbadanie sposobów postrzegania zadań i odpowiedzialności nauczyciela i uczących się w procesie nauki języka, ich umiejętności, motywacji, zachowań autonomicznych w klasie językowej i poza nią, a także zależności pomiędzy tymi zmiennymi. Kwestionariusz zastosowany w projekcie wypełniło 74 respondentów – studentów węgierskiego uniwersytetu. Zebrane dane zostały zanalizowane za pomocą SPSS 26.0. Uzyskane wyniki wskazują, iż w badanym kontekście nauczyciele są postrzegani przez studentów jako osoby bardziej odpowiedzialne za proces uczenia się niż sami uczący się. Niemniej jednak studenci prezentują określone zachowania autonomiczne, obecne w jednakowym stopniu zarówno w środowisku szkolnym, jak i poza nim
