In 1860, a brilliant product was born. For a 200 year old product, you might think it’s extinct or unavailable. But it’s still alive and kicking in rooms of homes all around the world. Yes, it’s the product that cools your room with a gentle breeze – the ceiling fan.

For those who have been living in a cave of late, a ceiling fan is – in simpler words, a motor hung from the ceiling of any room. Attached to a base are a number of blades with the only responsibly being that of circulating the air.

Ceiling fans can add simple grace or amazing elegance to anyone’s abode, depending upon personal likes and dislikes. For more than a century now they have become almost a standard feature for anyone who wishes to control rising costs in heating and cooling.

And like so many household stuff these days, this technology has turned its head to become a remote control. Rejoice because you have no need to crawl and drag your hot sweaty body out of your sofa just to reach the ceiling fan switch on those hot scorching days anymore. Once you have bought and installed a remote control ceiling fan, all that is left is for you to pick the remote up and press the button!

These remote controls that comes with the fans are both very stylish and functions well. Some even attempt to draw your attention to far away places by engraving a palm tree on it or tempt your decor senses with cherry wood finish. Still others offer modern designs and unique patterns. A lot of controls are equipped with dimmers for fans that come with lights.

If you’re like me, you’re bound to lose your remote one of these days. Well, worry not because there’s now a general remote which can work with most of the popular brands of fans. The universal of all universals is a Westinghouse. The options on this remote are unbelievable. These remote controls are not only capable of your standard 3 speed control but also a full range of light intensity, temperature speed control, exit room timer, fan and light timers and a 50 feet operation range. Wow! It makes a splendid addition to any fan.

Well, for me, I am always wishing for the day for a ceiling fan that is voice activated. You only need to yell out,”On, High Speed, Off.” What is that old adage? “Look Ma, no hands!”

Solar Photo Voltaic Modules are best known as a method for generating electric power by using solar cells to convert energy from the sun into electricity. The Solar Photo Voltaic Module effect refers to photons of light knocking electrons into a higher state of energy to create electricity. The term photovoltaic denotes the unbiased operating mode of a photo-diode in which current through the device is entirely due to the transduced light energy. Virtually all photovoltaic devices are some type of photo-diode.Solar cells produce direct current electricity from light, which can be used to power equipment or to recharge a battery. The first practical application of photovoltaic was to power orbiting satellites and other spacecraft, but today the majority of photovoltaic modules are used for grid connected power generation. In this case an inverter is required to convert the DC to AC. There is a smaller market for off-grid power for remote dwellings, boats, recreational vehicles, electric cars, roadside emergency telephones, remote sensing, and cathodic protection of pipelines. Average solar irradiance, watts per square meter. Note that this is for a horizontal surface, whereas solar panels are normally mounted at an angle and receive more energy per unit area. The small black dots show the area of solar panels needed to generate all of the world’s energy using 8% efficient photovoltaic.Cells require protection from the environment and are usually packaged tightly behind a glass sheet. When more power is required than a single cell can deliver, cells are electrically connected together to form photovoltaic modules, or solar panels. A single module is enough to power an emergency telephone, but for a house or a power plant the modules must be arranged in multiples as arrays. Although the selling price of modules is still too high to compete with grid… Continue reading

Digital elevation models (DEMs) are three-dimensional maps of an area’s topographical features or surface terrain. They differ from other types of digital terrain models (DTMs) in that they offer continuous elevation data of the various locations included in a mapped area. Thus, terrain maps like contour line maps or topographical maps might be referred to as DTMs but not DEMs. Techniques for creating digital terrain models include remote sensing techniques like satellite and plane imaging, as well as the more traditional method of direct land surveying. DEMs today are used in geographic information systems (GIS) and in consumer and industrial electronic devices and products, like GPS maps and digital location based services offered by cellphone providers. Specific MethodsThe most powerful technique for creating digital elevation models is called the interferometric synthetic aperture radar technique. This is where orbiting satellites take radar images over the course of two passes over the terrain that is being mapped. This is sufficient to produce a DEM map of ten kilometers per side and with a resolution of 10-meters. Another common, if not as powerful method, is called digital image correlation, whereby two optical images taken by a plane or earth observation satellite are combined. The two pictures, taken from different angles, produce a more complete data set for each portion of the terrain being mapped. The first set of usable elevation data for a large portion of the earth’s continental surface was procured by the earth observation satellite SPOT 1 in 1986 using this method. The traditional method of direct land survey is not as common when it comes to digital elevation models as the two discussed above. However, land survey is still used for mapping mountainous regions, which are not as accurately mapped using remote sensing methods. Some of the specific fields… Continue reading
