Tourist tips

gusty front is the boundary that separates the cold downdraft of a thunderstorm from the warm, moist surface air (air near the surface). Its external manifestations are very similar to the passage of a cold front near the surface.

Huge damage to the economy and nature microbursts of a gusty front.

Pay attention to the development of fin-shaped clouds ahead of the front, and updrafts of air rising along the gusty front.

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Associated gas will burn profitably 17.09.2004

Engineers from North Dakota want to use gas microelectric turbines in oil fields.

Associated gas, which, together with oil, flies out of the well, is by no means always used. Either the quality is not very good, or the quantity is not enough - it is unprofitable to build a gas pipeline to the nearest plant, or something else. In general, most oilmen burn this gas, polluting the environment and contributing to the greenhouse effect without any benefit to humanity.

"We believe that by installing microelectric turbines in the mines, it will be possible to both generate electricity and reduce emissions of harmful substances by three-quarters," says John Harju from the Center for Energy and Environmental Studies at the University of North Dakota. Now the center's engineers have begun testing such turbines in their state's oil fields. The microturbine is specially designed for gas with a high sulfur content, up to 1,5% (this is the gas that comes from the Dakota subsoil); its power is 30 kW. This is quite enough to provide electricity to almost a dozen houses.

In principle, such a turbine can develop a power of up to 300 kW: then the contribution from waste associated gas to the power supply of the mine will be considerable and will help oil producers significantly save money.
