Paper Introduction: FUEL CELLS ON THE NASA SPACE SHUTTLE ORBITER
Introduction
This research reviews the fuel cells used on the NASA space shuttle orbiter vehicles. The presentation of the review focuses on (1) fuel cell structure, (2) fuel cell components, (3) fuel cell reactants, (4) fuel cell storage and distribution, and (5) fuel cell operation. The review of fuel cell operation includes consideration of (a) parameter and (b) processing.
Fuel Cell Structure
The concept of the fuel cell is not a new technology. The fuel cell dates to 1839 and British scientist Sir William Grove. The first fuel cell appeared in 1842 (Connelley 1). Practical applications of the fuel cell concept proved elusive, however, until the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) funded the

Paper Abstract: Reviews the potentialities of solar energy as an alternative fuel. Discusses the need for federal funding into research & development of the relevant technologies.
Paper Introduction: U.S. energy policy is a matter of ongoing concern. Our society makes use of massive amounts of energy of various types, and the need for energy is growing. Energy policy is tied to a number of other policies, from the economic to foreign affairs. The costs of energy have an impact on every aspect of society, and energy policy relates to foreign affairs in that the dependence of America on foreign energy sources creates a situation whereby the nation can be held hostage to the whims of external powers. In such an atmosphere, more and more concern has been raised that the United States discover a source of renewable energy, something that will not be depleted as will fossil fuels, something that is cleaner and safer for the environment than are fossil fuels, and something that is still economically viable, producing sufficient energy at a cost compa

Paper Abstract: Examines alternatives, safety, types of waste, regulations, costs, technology, reprocessing, natural & human hazards, examples.
Paper Introduction: Although the nuclear waste storage problem has not yet reached crisis proportions, it is a chronic, complex issue that defies societal consensus, even within the scientific community. Each category of nuclear waste--high-level, low-level, and transuranic (TRU)--presents unique challenges for containment. All are potentially dangerous; at issue is the selection of the best options for long-term storage.
High-level nuclear waste is comprised of spent fuel from private sector and military reactors, as well as the liquids remaining from fuel processed for atomic weaponry. Used reactor fuel is considered intensely hot and irradiated. High-level nuclear wastes have long half-lives and are considered permanent hazards. (Half-life describes the amount of time required for 50 percent of a reactor fuel's original radioactivity to decay.)

Paper Introduction: Tidal Power As A Source Of Electricity
Tidal energy has been used by humans for hundreds of years. In the modern era, the power is utilized for the production of electricity. The technologies involved are both proven and effective. However, with the exception of a tidal power plant at La Rance, France, the energy resource remains largely undeveloped. This may be in part because of the relatively high cost of the electricity produced. Only in appropriate circumstances will tidal power ever utilize its potential as both a dependable and enduring power source.
Tidal surges are caused by complex interactions between the gravitational fields of the sun and the moon. These phenomena occur in cycles of varying length. For the most part, the earth's oceans bulge along an axis which is approximately in line

Paper Abstract: History & evolution from 644 A.D.to the 1990s. Purposes, technology, designs, theory, materials, efficiency, wind turbines.
Paper Introduction: Historically, wind energy conversion systems can be considered as one of man's earliest machines. Windmills, according to documentation, were used in Persia as early as 644 A.D. to grind grain (5:9). Mechanically, the Persian windmill was a development of the watermill--an earlier machine used for turning grains into flour--and it looked a little like one turned up on end. A vertical shaft was set in a square tower, with sails set at right angles to the shaft at its top end. The wind passed through slots in the tower on to the sails, allowing the shaft to turn, as well as any machinery set at the bottom end (2:13). Traditionally, this principle travelled with the prisoners of Ghengis Khan to China, where horizontal mills with matting sails, but without the enclosing tower, were used to drive irrigation machinery. The Chinese discovered that if the

Paper Abstract: Critical review of overview of global oil industry through 1986.
Paper Introduction: This study will provide a book review of Peter R. Odell's Oil and World Power.
Odell has set an ambitious task for himself. Not only does he attempt to present and analyze the role of oil in the world, he at the same time is revising an earlier work (the book was originally published in 1970, before the oil crises of the early 1970s) which without such revision would have seemed largely out of date. The unrevised work would have doubtless had historical significance, but it would not have been particularly useful in understanding the oil situation in the world in the 1990s.
The author's credentials are impressive, but they might also be questioned with respect to his potential biases. He puts his connections on the table immediately in the Preface to the book: "The first edition of this book . . . emerged (in 1970) from some

Paper Abstract: Definition, types, examples (James Bay project), benefits, costs, environmental issues.
Paper Introduction: Water has been used to generate power for thousands of years. The use of water to generate electricity is a relatively new phenomenon, but one which has gained in popularity since such power is renewable and often readily available. This research explores the use and production of hydropower in Canada, with a special emphasis on the James Bay construction project. Attention is given to hydropower itself, different types of hydropower projects, and the economic, environmental and social costs associated with large hydropower megaprojects.
Hydroelectric power comes about when water passes through a vertical distance (called a 'head'). "Run-of-the-river" techniques use the head from the increased flow from a gradually declining riverbed. Dams use falling water which
