Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book considers the economic worthwhileness of insulating domestic hot water pipes using a mathematical model of heat loss and experimental data from the hot water system in the author's own house. The payback time of a D.I.Y. installation of bath tap hot water pipe lagging is estimated, together with the cost saving on electricity bills.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this book Peta Trigger develops three methods of tackling problems in engineering science from first principles. The first two are matrix based, the required matrix and determinant properties being fully explained in the first two appendices. The third method is an iterative, approximation one. They are shown to be advantageous compared with other commonly used methods, and are applicable where the quantities involved are real or complex numbers. The text shows how the required equations for the application of each method are dervived, and a third appendix shows how matrices are set up for circuit parameters. Worked examples illustrating the application of each method are drawn from electronics and in each case the means of checking the result obtained for truth and accuracy is outlined. Readers are invited to test their understanding by completing a problem begun in the text using the method illustrated.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book contains advice about writing Tutor Marked Assignments (TMAs) for Maths, Science and Technology courses, which may be particularly welcome to students in the early stages of studying for an OU qualification or who are contemplating study with the OU. Planning, layout and structure together with content aspects of writing TMAs are considered, with examples. TMAs with a strong mathematical element, those which involve a combination of description and mathematical working, and those which are more "biological" in content and essay in type, reports and web pages are included. The author's credentials for writing this book are that she was a student at the OU from 2000-2010, and wrote upwards of 80 TMAs during that time, from entry level 1 to level 3 honours. These included TMAs for Mathematics, Science and Technology courses, the author finishing with 720 points and two B.Sc. honours degrees in Mathematics and MST (Open).

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book considers first what it means to be transsexual, and what the transsexual has to go through to achieve transition is described, with profiles of transsexuals including the author's. But it is particularly concerned with the morality of transsexualism, especially from a religious point of view, and so next, what the Bible- or interpretations of it have to say about transsexualism, beginning with the Old Testament and the book of Genesis are discussed. Finally, the questions of whether those with transgender feelings can be transsexual and still be true Christians, and how the gospels, subsequent chapters in the New Testament and the Christian church, together with the Old Testament can help transgender people, are examined.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book will be of interest to all those who desire to live an economical and healthy life. To this end, the author describes in some detail a number of cost-saving measures in the areas of Eating & Drinking; Staying Warm and Comfortable; Exercise & Travel; Cleaning & Keeping Clean and DIY, which together with Sleep and Sleeping well, comprise the main chapters. Although, as the title suggests, the emphasis is on economizing, there is a discussion in each chapter of how the measures described promote physical and mental health.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'Wind turbines: description, appraisal & alternatives' considers in detail the evidence and arguments for and against wind turbine generated electricity. Although wind generation is the main focus, enough information is given of other forms of generation, both 'conventional' (coal, gas and nuclear) and other 'renewable' (such as solar and hydro), to enable readers to see how wind generation fits in to the UK generation, transmission and distribution system as a whole. The book is aimed at readers with a good knowledge of arithmetic who are interested in the question of why wind turbines are increasingly becoming a feature of the UK land- and sea-scape, as well as those who wish to learn something of the basics of electricity generation and transmission in general. Sufficient detail is given to enable readers with some additional knowledge of mathematics and elementary principles of engineering to pursue these topics in more depth. Basic and more detailed text is colour-coded accordingly. The book is arranged in four parts. Part I is concerned with the technical viability of wind turbines, and after looking at the development of wind turbines from windmills, the construction of wind turbines in terms of their main components (rotor, drive, generator, tower, foundation, etc.), their operation and installation are described, with reference to specific examples of domestic, commercial, and industrial on shore and off shore types. Part II looks at conventional forms of generation, with which wind generation is compared in considering the economic and environmental viability of wind turbine generated electricity in the context of the national generation, transmission and distribution system. Part III goes on to look at other forms of renewable generation, and considers whether other forms of generation, including conventional generation, might constitute viable alternatives to wind in providing future electricity needs. Finally, Part IV presents an overall summary together with a concluding assessment of wind turbine generation, and considers the place of wind generation alongside other forms of generation in scenarios of the generation, transmission and distribution system in the near, mid and far future.
