Introduction A glucose polymer called glycogen is found in the majority of mammalian and non- mammalian cells, in microbes, and even in some plants. It is a significant and rapid source of stored glucose. As a supply of glucose for other tissues, it is mostly kept in the liver of vertebrates. It appears to be primarily employed in the muscle for energy- related functions as the metabolic fuel for glycolysis, which generates glucose 6- phosphate. As a result, glycogen is essential as a source of overall and cellular energy as well as an energy reserve. The synthesis and breakdown of ... Read More
The most fundamental difference between dry-type and oil-filled transformer is that a dry-type transformer has a solid insulating material to provide insulation between conducting parts of the transformer, whereas an oil-filled transformer is one in which dielectric oil is used as the insulating medium. Both transformers have their own advantages, disadvantages, and applications. In this article, we will learn about the major differences between dry-type transformer and oil-filled transformer. But before that let us get an overview of an electrical transformer, dry-type transformer, and the oil-filled transformer. What is an Electrical Transformer? An electrical transformer is a static ...

Introduction Flerovium is denoted or represented by the symbol (𝐹𝑙), with the atomic number equal to 114. This element is superheavy or, one of the heaviest elements in the periodic table. It is also an extremely radioactive material or element. This element was discovered in the year 1998, in the research centre of Russia. This element is found in group number 14 and period number 7 which means it lies in the p-block. The Electronic configuration for the flerovium is $\mathrm{[Rn]\:5f^{14}\:6d^{10}\:7s^{2}\:7p^{2}}$. It is a member (found in) of the carbon (𝐶) group, and it is the bulky element in that ... Read More
In the field of electrical and power distribution engineering, there are two important concepts namely neutral and floating neutral. The neutral, also called neutral wire, is a return path for electric current in electrical circuits that balances the phase loads and serves as a reference point. In practical applications, the neutral is typically grounded at the main panel or distribution end. On the other hand, the floating neutral is also a neutral wire but it is isolated from the ground terminal. The concept of floating neutral is not much common in practical applications, but it may be used in ... Read More
Introduction One billion can be written as 1 , 000 , 000 , 000 . In mathematics, place value can be used to define numbers. There are two different ways to represent the place value of the digits in the numbers. The positional values of the number are determined using place value charts. Positions allow for the expansion of the numbers in the general form. In this tutorial, we will learn about billions in rupees, the number system, and the conversion of the number system. Number Systems Number systems are mathematical expressions of numbers in various ways that computers ... Read More
The increasing demand of electricity cannot be met through conventional ways of generating electricity. To fulfil the electricity demand, several new methods have been developed. Solar panels are one of the most common of them. A solar panel is a semiconductor device that can convert sunlight into electricity. This light to electricity conversion is based on the principle of photovoltaic effect. Thus, solar panels are also known as photovoltaic systems. In a solar panel, there are multiple PV or solar cells used that absorb the sunlight and produce electricity. This electricity is stored in rechargeable batteries and supplied as per ... Read More
Introduction In early times sunlight was used for the bleaching of substances. Charles Tennant in the year 1799 introduced a solid combination of chlorine and slaked lime. This is the major contributor to the production of a bleaching powder in bulk. Now it is available in many commercial products, and it is used for the bleaching of water that is to remove germs present in water. And in some chemical industries, it is used as an oxidizing agent. Sodium Hydroxide or caustic soda is also an important inorganic chemical compound that is found in many commercial products such as soap, ... Read More
This article is meant for explaining the two most widely used visual representations of electrical systems also called electrical diagrams. These diagrams are single-line diagram and multiline diagram. These two diagrams are used in electrical engineering to represent various electrical layouts and connection arrangements of electrical systems. In electrical engineering, the visual/graphical representation of electrical systems like distribution systems, control panels, transmission line, generating stations, etc. is very important to understand the connections of various system components, designing and analyzing electrical systems, and more. In the field of electrical engineering, the following two main types of visual representations are ... Read More
Introduction Hydrocarbon butane has the chemical formula 𝐶4𝐻10. At room temperature, it exists in a gaseous state and is an alkane. Edward Frankland, a British chemist, was discovered in 1849. Although Edmund Ronalds, an English industrial chemist, noted its numerous qualities. He discovered butane in oil products and researched its qualities. Butane belongs to the family of paraffinic hydrocarbons and is a colourless, odourless gaseous hydrocarbon (compound of carbon and hydrogen). Normal butane, also known as n-butane, is a molecule in which all the carbon is connected in a straight chain. Isobutane, on the other hand, has a branched chain. ... Read More
A smart meter is an electrical instrument used for measuring electrical energy consumed and other electrical parameters of the electricity supply system. It is basically a type of energy meter equipped with more advanced metering technologies. The main advantage of using a smart meter is that it does not require any manual reading system for billing and other purposes. Instead, it can automatically send the data through communication channels to the electricity company. Therefore, smart meters help in reducing the operational cost and time. In this article, we will explain the major advantages and disadvantages of smart meters. Before ... Read More
