Acknowledgement & Project Overview The aim of this project report is to estimate and calculate the approximate design of a 1MW solar PV power plant (utility scale). The total no. of solar panel required and the different parameters of the solar panel estimated. A site in West Bengal is taken virtually to estimate the solar intensity of the site which is most important for calculation of such type of report. A Single Line Diagram (SLD) has been introduced in this report. Also the brief details

2012: Beginning of the End or Why the World Won't End? 12.22.11 Scenes from the motion picture "2012." Courtesy Columbia Pictures. Remember the Y2K scare? It came and went without much of a whimper because of adequate planning and analysis of the situation. Impressive movie special effects aside, Dec. 21, 2012, won't be the end of the world as we know. It will, however, be another winter solstice. Much like Y2K, 2012 has been analyzed and the science of the end of the Earth thoroughly studied. Contrary

Question 1 (a) The House of Quality functions as a living document and a source of ready reference for related products and future upgrades. While it is a great communication tool at each step in the process, the matrices are the means and not the end. Its purpose is to serve as a vehicle for dialogue to strengthen vertical and horizontal communications. Through customer needs and competitive analysis, the House of Quality helps to identify the critical technical components that require

THE UNIVERSE When we look up in the night sky we can see the stars and the moon. And because it is natural to be curious, we ask questions and we want answers. When our view was limited by what our eyes could see, the sky was our Universe. Then the telescopes deepened our view, photography enhanced it, and spectroscopy broadened it. The universe grew from a sky of stars to a realm of galaxies, to an expanding universe of galaxies. Many people believe that nature, the sun and moon, the star,

1/ ENERGY BANDS IN SOLIDS In this chapter we begin with a review of the basic atomic properties of matter leading to discrete electronic energy levels in atoms. We find that these energy levels are spread into energy bands in a crystal. This band structure allows us to distinguish between an insulator, a semiconductor, and a metal. 1-1 CHARGED PARTICLES The charge, or quantity, of negative electricity and the mass of the electron have been found to be 1.60 X 10- 19 C (coulomb) and 9.11

ART APOCALYPSE AND MILLENIALISM (Name) (Institution affiliation) (Course) (Date) APOCALYPSE AND MILLENIALISM Introduction As the societies embrace the turn of a millennium, there is, historically, a perceived notion that this is a portentous time- a time of jubilation, may be, but on equal grounds, and may be more persistently, a time of apprehension. Five hundred year cycles system appears to be as significant as the thousand year cycles
