Abstract

Capstone Microturbine and Heliofocus Solar Thermal Solutions in a partnership built an open loop Brayton cycle system using a 65 kW Capstone Microturbine and a concentrated solar energy receiver. This system was built for initial development testing to validate the ability to generate electricity on a small scale at high efficiencies using only solar energy as the input. A secondary goal was to demonstrate the ability of the receiver to transfer sun energy into the working fluid of air at efficiencies that would support the target overall system electrical efficiency of 21%. Concentrating Solar Power systems in the 20 kW to 100 kW electrical output power range currently do not exist in the market place today. Demand for this type of power generation is high due to its small footprint per kW of energy produced, its ability to be distributed in small kW increments to meet site demand and space, its relatively high electrical efficiency and its projected low cost per kilowatt of generated electricity. This initial testing was done without the production configuration dish concentrator component and instead a solar tower with a field of Heliostats provided the sunlight to the solar generation system. Test results showed that the receiver met the efficiency goal set forth and that the overall system was capable of producing 25kW of electricity to the electric grid. The receiver efficiency measured was 89% at or near the needed airflow and air temperature levels required by the Microturbine to support an overall system efficiency of 21%. The next step in the development process would be to integrate the development system onto a concentrating solar dish and demonstrate the total conversion efficiency at the target 21% prior to commercialization.

14. Why Were There No Poor Laws in Australia?

Abstract

There were no paupers aboard the First Fleet, nor any poor laws. There were paid officials of the central state under the direction of the Home Office; there was a military force of Marines, some with their families; and there were convicts, state dependents who legally were no longer the responsibility of a parish but were under the control of the Home Office. The labor of the convicts, but not their persons, was assigned to Governor Phillip, who in turn would assign that labor as he thought fit in the colony, subject of course to instructions from his superiors. Who needed a poor law in a jail?

18. The Australian Anglican Historical Documents and Images Project

Abstract

The sponsoring Anglican History Seminar, which meets annually, determined to extend the collection to cover digitized documents and images from the history of the Anglicanism in Australia generally. Dr Brian Dickey joined Dr Treloar in this expanded phase of the project. The Revd Bruce McAteer, General Secretary of the ACA acts as publisher. The editors aim to include documents and images of importance to the national life of the ACA, as well as important ‘firsts’ and other items that might generally illustrate the history of Anglicanism in Australia. We have adopted a broad and inclusive approach to what will be published on the site, which will be renamed as above. Broadly the editors will avoid newspaper reports from capital city newspapers (because these will eventually be digitized by the ANL), and published books. But manuscripts, reports, pamphlets and other ephemera, as well as images, are within view. Proposals for inclusion in the collection are therefore invited at large. In making a proposal it would be helpful to have what would ideally form the basis of the editorial introduction: A precise bibliographic statement of the item’s identity: author, recipient, date, location, file number etc

Abstract

During June 1892 relations between the managements and the miners at Broken Hill deteriorated. In 1889 the miners had achieved the closed shop and a system of wage rates based on time. In June 1892 the managers proposed to substitute for this system one based on contract. The economic context was one of contracting opportunity and falling profits. Silver prices in particular had fallen 15% since 1889.2 In these circumstances the mine managers were probably not averse to a con frontation with the workers that might allow an assault on the integrity of the unions and the Barrier Ranges Trades and Labour Council, formed in 1890. It might ease their problems by allowing them to cut their production costs. They had the example, moreover, of the successful destruction by the pastoral interests of the principle of the union shed demanded by shearers and their supporters during the maritime strike of 1890. Just as the shearers' union had been humbled, so perhaps might the miners be put in their place.
