Preliminary Inventory Of Lifeline Systems And Evaluation Of Seismic Hazards In Reno And Sparks, Nevada, Barbara Priest
Dissertations and Theses
The Reno-Sparks community is in a seismically hazardous area. Recent research indicates that a Richter 7.0 or greater magnitude earthquake could affect the area. Many of the emergency and essential facilities are situated in dangerous geological locations and are housed in outdated structures which could be severely damaged in the event of a major earthquake. Detailed site evaluations need to be made with respect to location of new structures and of existing building safety. The 1979 Unified Building Code seismic provisions should be adopted without exception; Nevada Revised Statute 278 .160 needs to be revised to require a seismic safety …

Arkansas Wood Fuels: A Feasibility Study, Ralph O. Gunderson
Arkansas Wood Fuels: A Feasibility Study, Ralph O. Gunderson
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
This report presents estimates of quantities and location of logging residues in Arkansas. Six sites are determined as potential fuel use sites for these residues. Estimates of the demand for wood fuel at these sites are made. The supply and demand for wood fuels are studied to determine the feasibility of utilizing logging residue as a fuel at these six locations in Arkansas.
Cogeneration Of Ethanol From I.C. Engine Powerplants: An Economical And Convenient Method To Supply Process Energy For Ethanol Production, Randall Noon
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
I.C. engine power plants have significant and suitable waste heat for the production of ethanol. Such power plants are often located in conjunction with cattle and grain producing areas, two of the important ingredients for ethanol production. Cogeneration of ethanol from I.C. engines will afford significant production of ethanol without requiring more fuel than is currently used.

Ratepayer Financing Of Solar Thermal Electric Commercial Demonstration Projects, Mark D. Jarmie, Jeff V. Conopask
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Commercialization of a new energy supply technology requires demonstration of its feasibility to potential customers at each staqe of development. While small improvements of proven energy supply svstems are usually privately pioneered, larger or more uniaue research projects are often delaved as economic and technical concerns are assuaged through public sector R&D funding. For solar thermal central receivers, even though their technical viability has been tested on a small scale, acceptance by utilities will require full-scale field experiments and commercial-sized demonstration plants.

Wood Fuels In Power Generation, Yildirim Omurtag, Larry Wetzel, Michael Mcevilly
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
In order for wood to be considered a feasible energy source for power generation, it must prove to be economical, meet society's pollution criteria, and provide sufficient energy to meet its regional demand applications or requirements. This report looks at wood's availability, its potential as a fuel source, the different methods of energy conversion, and lastly, submits conclusions and recommendations concerning wood-fueled power generation.
The information and background was supplied and supported by actual application, government publications and documentations, and other sources. The availability report includes living biomass, wood residues, and potential biomass expansion. Once availability was determined, the portion …
Rate Of Return Regulatory Policy -- The Bane Of Electric Utilities?, Charles David Laderoute
Rate Of Return Regulatory Policy -- The Bane Of Electric Utilities?, Charles David Laderoute
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
In the past,rate of return regulation served to the advantage of electric utility stockholders. Today this is no longer the case. Furthermore, owners cannot assume that utility management can or will work totally in their behalf. As a result, this paper presents as its main thesis that utility stockholders should band together into advocacy groups to support their right to a fair rate of return.
Pipeline Gathering System Operations Model, Mark E. Ryan
Pipeline Gathering System Operations Model, Mark E. Ryan
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
A computer model to aid in the analysis of pipeline gathering system operations has been developed. The model simulates the actual daily operation of the gathering system, on a task by task basis, taking into account terrain, climate, and facility breakdowns. The model can be used to project operating requirements for new systems or analyze problems in existing systems.
The Price Of Oil, R. W. Clack
The Price Of Oil, R. W. Clack
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
An examination of major forces in the petroleum market with primary emphasis on the decade of the 1970s. The market force (s) responsible for the factor-of-ten increase in the price of crude oil is isolated, if not identified. The market's "message" is set forth for energy policy planners.

Amorphous Silicon Solar Cells: A Review, Robert D. Engelken, Patrick L. Cole
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Recent developments in the production and study of the properties of amorphous silicon containing hydrogen and fluorine impurities are reviewed. Especially emphasized are the properties of the material in regard to its photovoltaic potential and the roles of hydrogen and fluorine in modifying such properties as band gap and mobility from those of the pure amorphous and crystalline material.
The Regulatory Nemesis, K. Daniel Hinkle
The Regulatory Nemesis, K. Daniel Hinkle
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Energy sources are truly regulated from the bowels of the earth to the flame tip. Local, state and federal governments, whether by design or blind ineptitude, have created a maze of administrative regulations that affect the development of both current and future energy sources. Rather than discuss regulatory horror stories, it is the purpose of this paper to discuss the impacts of this maze of regulations on current and alternate energy sources.
The first section will review 16 federal acts that make up the regulatory nemesis. The second section will review an example of the maze in action on a …

Entropy Based Analytic Techniques, John O. Dow
Entropy Based Analytic Techniques, John O. Dow
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
The study of energy supply futures is simplified when the end use of this energy is included in the analyses. The various supply and end use opportunities can be evaluated against a standard basis with the analytic techniques discussed here. A simplified theoretical background for these techniques is given and a wide range of energy supply and end use situations to which the techniques apply is presented.

Use Of Ailerons To Improve Control Of Large Wind Turbines, Melvin H. Snyder, W. H. Wentz Jr., John T. Calhoun
Use Of Ailerons To Improve Control Of Large Wind Turbines, Melvin H. Snyder, W. H. Wentz Jr., John T. Calhoun
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Studies have been conducted to determine feasibility of using aileron or spoiler controls as alternates to pitch control for large horizontal axis wind turbines. Results of the study show that either ailerons or spoilers can provide control necessary to limit turbine power in high wind conditions. An aileron system is recommended for the present application, based upon the ability of ailerons to provide self-starting and added power at low wind speed conditions.
