Energy window

Windows often are thought of as independent components of a building. However, to maximize windows energy efficiency, they must he integrated with the rest of a building system.

Cross-machine comparison is an extremely beneficial tool to the novice analyst. Most vibration monitoring systems permit direct comparison of vibration data, both filtered window energy and complete signatures, acquired from two machines. This capability permits the analyst to directly compare a machine that is known to be in good operating condition with one that is perceived to have...

The ESs mentioned above consist of two electrodes with the same type of capacitive materials made from either EDL capacitive materials or pseudocapacitive materials (symmetrical configuration). In order to further increase the operating potential window, energy, and power density, a new type of ES has been developed, which is known as hybrid capacitors. With extensive achievements in this area, various types of hybrid ESs have been developed. Generally, hybrid capacitors utilize both the EDL capacitance and faradaic reaction to store charges. The hybrid capacitors reviewed in this book include (1) ESs based on composite electrodes made from both EDL capacitive materials and pseudocapacitive materials (2) asymmetric ESs with one EDL electrode and another pseudocapacitive or battery-type electrode and (3) asymmetric ESs with one pseudocapacitive electrode and another rechargeable battery-type electrode.
