In addition to the Cernavoda nuclear power plant (NPP), south-eastern Romania and the Danube delta has a wider significance in the Romanian electricity system. The region, including offshore sites in the Black Sea, has a large (3 GWe) renewable wind energy potential (Leahu, 2008). The growth in renewables and nuclear power in this corner of Romania... 

Electrical power systems are normally three-phase systems connected using wye or delta connections. In wye connections the three phases are connected to form a letter Y with a neutral point at the intersection of the three phases. In delta connections the three phases are connected to form a Greek letter delta (A). Delta systems do not have a neutral hence delta systems are 3-wire systems. A Y connection has a neutral and thus it is a 4-wire system. 

A time diagram of the electric field bursts (5.1.1) is shown in Fig. 5.3. A planar rotor perturbed by a sequence of delta kicks according to (5.1.1) is known as the kicked rotor. In order to familiarize ourselves with the physics of kicked systems, we focus in this section on the classical mechanics of the kicked rotor. If we denote by L the angular momentum of the rotor, the Hamiltonian function of the kicked rotor is given by... 

A common practice in electrical energy distribution switchgears is the open delta connection of PT s used for measurement and protection. However, it is shown that failures occur between phases with relative ease [Magallanes Ramirez Alba Medina, 1991]. In three-phase industrial systems, the use of this connection involves using only two PT s, so that economically there is a saving in purchasing one FT for each panel. It also requires less space to accommodate two FT s within the switchgears. 

Quantitatively, lower dissipation factors result in higher-quality, higher-performance electrical or electronic systems, having lower electrical losses. Dissipation factor values have no units because they are mathematical ratios. Low dissipation factor values, desirable for electronic plastics, would be below 0.01 and 0.001. Two other terms for dissipation factor are loss tangent and tan delta. A related term is quality factor or Q factor, which is the reciprocal of the dissipation factor. See also dielectric properties electronic plastic. 

Electron Drift in a Constant Electric Field. As an example, let us consider the system discussed in the time-of-flight section. In this system, charge carriers are generated close to the injecting contact and drift to the collecting contact under the force of a constant electric field. As discussed above, the current response on a laser pulse has a constant value of Jph = AQIr for 0 < t < t, and drops instantly to zero at t=r. The input signal is a delta function and the output response is a step function. Linear-response theory shows that the system function H s) is the Laplace transform of the impulse response function h(t). In our example ...
