The data used in the design of this hydro-electric
generating station was furnished by Hon. Walter M. Pierce
from a survey conducted by T. R. Barry C. E. in the service
of the Grande Ronde Water Co. during the summer of
1906.
In the preparation of this thesis there were...
The determinants of electrical energy demand for the State of
Oregon are represented in a mathematical model. This model is
structured to operate in parallel with a computer simulation model of
the state and is utilized independently to investigate electrical energy
consumption during various scenarios of economic activity and energy...
This research intends to provide insights into community wind energy development in Oregon using an integrated analysis approach, which incorporates GIS Suitability Analysis, Socio-Political Analysis, and Empirical Case Studies. In the GIS analysis, we developed a model through a series of steps (including data acquisition, preprocessing, data management, manipulation and...
Wind energy is a cornerstone to the world of renewables. It is widely used in many parts of the world as a clean and effective form of power generation. However, wind power has a number of drawbacks, which limits its use in many regions. Solar power has been used not...
About 2 percent of the solar energy reaching earth is converted to wind energy. Surface winds have the potential to supply about 30 times the total energy consumed in the United States. Achieving this potential on a household level is a feat
Fishery biologists and watershed management specialists have recently begun to investigate the pollutional threat posed by organic debris left in or near the forest watercourses. Oxygen content in some streams has fallen below the limits required for fish survival. The biochemical oxygen demand exerted by the debris and the reaeration...
