Capillar activity of nonwovens characterized their filtration ability. Widely used method for porous media characterization is experimental capillary rise method. Non-woven porous media textiles can be characterized by studying the kinetics of liquid rise within the pore spaces. It is well known that the porous structure of the non-woven fabric gives an advantage associated with the deeper penetration of the plasma into the treated material. The electrical and magnetic polarization of textile filaments carried out under atmospheric or lowered gas pressure is a useful method for changing their surface state. Experimental studies have been conducted to determine the capillary activity of porous non-woven filter PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) textile material by capillary rise after low temperature plasma treatment in vacuum. The aim of this study is to use the capillary activity changes as a measure for the type and the extent of modification of non-woven needle felted textile materials after their treatment in ionized media. In the present article, it has been shown that the capillary activity measurement of can be successfully used to analyze the changes occurring along with the physicochemical filament modification in the cold plasma medium.

In the paper, the results from the analysis of the working process of the residual current devices (RCD) in the frequencies over than 50 Hz (resp. 60 Hz), are presented. The main aim of the investigation is to estimate the applicability of the considered RCD in the systems including modern converting devices and its protective measures from the electric current breaking in the working frequencies over than 50 Hz (resp. 60 Hz). The paper finishes with conclusion remarks about advantages and disadvantages of the considered models of RCD.

This paper aims to clarify flexibility by summarizing the analytic frameworks that have recently emerged to measure operational flexibility. Flexibility has been identified as an essential property of power systems, and indices and metrics used to recognize and evaluate a power system flexibility are continually defined. In this paper some indices and metrics that have already been developed are briefly presented and discussed. Also different methods for enhancing the flexibility are presented in more details.

In this paper, an approach for asynchronous drive testing at different control modes U = f(f) has been developed. Many tests have been carried out using a specialized laboratory simulator and the results obtained have been analyzed. The experimental verification of the approach proves its applicability in the choice of suitable frequency converter for drives in various fields of industry and transport: pre-invested funds can be restored by implementing optimal control mode and increased energy efficiency.

The work presents the development of a microcontroller system prototype based on the platform “Arduino Uno”. The prototype has been used to perform experimental tests to determine the Joule integral of a fuse. The prototype relies on an indirect method of obtaining the results for the Joule integral.

An investigation of copper and iron losses distribution in internal permanent magnet synchronous motor is presented. Two rotor configuration have been analyzed – with integral permanent magnet per pole and with a segmented magnet with one ferromagnetic rib in the pole middle. Maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) and iron loss minimization (ILM) control have been applied for both constructions. The influence of the rotor configuration and the control strategy on the loss distribution is shown.

The reliability of the power system is divided into - adequacy and security. System adequacy relates to the existence of sufficient generators within the system to satisfy the consumer load demand or system operational constraints. This report presents a way of probabilistic modeling of available capacity in the generation subsystem. Under considerations are conventional generating units, cogenerations and different types of renewable energy sources.

The paper examines an innovative approach to limit switching overvoltage’s from shunt reactors MV, which are installed in nodal distribution stations. This is done by changing the magnitude and nature of the switched current. The necessary electrical and technological protections, as well as their settings, are considered.
