- Multi-stage pumps can deliver efficiency gains - Various trade organizations have presented data suggesting that pumping systems account for roughly 20% of the worlds electrical energy demand. There have also been figures presented stating that 85 percent of the total cost of ownership of a pumping system is the cost of the electrical energy to operate the system.
- The story below the first full-scale floating wind turbine - The innovative offshore floating Hywind wind turbine, moored in the North Sea off the Norwegian coast, demonstrates how Trelleborg Offshore’s syntactic foam buoyes contributes to the future of offshore power generation. “People see the tower and turbine, but forget that the expertise in designing the subsea portion is also critical, because it keeps the whole turbine afloat,” says Gary Howland, the company’s Renewables Sales Manager. “The dynamic floating structure weighs 5,300 tons and measures 165-m tall. A full 65m floats above the sea surface. The 13 km power offtake and communications cabling attached to the structure further adds to its weight.
- Multi-speed gearbox enhances performance of electric vehicles - Transmission specialist Zeroshift has devised a multi-speed gearbox for electric vehicles (EVs) that needs no clutch; it is claimed that a combination of a damper inside the gear hubs and electronic control of the motor make ratio changes seamless. Having more than one gear ratio and the ability to shift without interrupting torque means the motor runs at higher efficiency, thereby extending range and the batteries' life expectancy by up to 10 per cent.
- An alternative to copper-based grounding - Wind turbine towers are a natural target for lightning strikes. A good grounding system plays a critical role guarding against catastrophic damage to the blades, electronics, transformer, nacelle, and collector system out to the substation. Up until now, copper has been the predominant material in wire and cable used in the grounding of all manner of electrical systems. But the cost of copper fluctuates substantially and now regularly flirts with its all time high price reached back in mid 2008. This is not good news for wind-farm developers, and electrical and construction contractors who are under increasing pressure to control costs on these projects.
- Arc Flash Labels & Signs Arc Flash Safety - Arc Flash labels are not required by code. The NFPA 70E code applies to arc flash. Neither this code, nor OSHA requires that arc flash labels be used. HOWEVER, properly labeling arc flash hazard areas is an important component of safety AND should you have an arc flash incident you can expect that a lack of labeling will weigh against you in the following investigation.
- Water Abrasive System Used To Cut Pipe And Concrete In Water As Deep As 1,700 Feet - Dismantling decommissioned oil-drilling platforms, wells and pipelines requires precision demolition techniques. Gulf Coast specialty oil service contractor Proserv Offshore, a unit of Norwegian-based Proserv Group, has become known in the industry for using high-pressure, water-abrasive cutting technologies—also known as cold-cutting—to help remove a variety of oil and gas facilities.

Calculation
This specification prescribes the requirements for classification of low-alloy steel electrodes for flux cored arc welding. The requirements include chemical composition and mechanical properties of the weld metal and certain usability characteristics. Optional, supplemental designators are also included for improved toughness and diffusible hydrogen. Additional requirements are included for standard sizes, marking, manufacturing, and packaging. A guide is appended to the specification as a source of information concerning the classification system employed and the intended use of lowalloy steel flux cored electrodes. ANSI Approved. approx.
