when we start the tube light, then it takes initially 1100
volt, after glow it takes 120 volt?(when we give 220 volt a.c.)

Answer Posted / prakash gokhale

Normally bulb or tubes are filled up with some gases.
deionisation of such gases gives the light as a product of
collidation of gas particles. But for that deionasation
high energy is required and we use choke for the same.
Choke is a inductive device which takes more power for
starting.

We are preparing another project which involves Waste heat recovery from a 1 MW GE Engine. The Engine in particular gives out flue gas at 487Deg C with a flow rate of 5650 kg/hour and this can be cooled to 180 Deg C. This gives a thermal output of ~ 594 KW that is available for input to VAM via heat exchanger / boiler. Additionally 581 KW will be available from engine jacket water (temperature profile 80/ 80 Deg C and a flow rate of 50m3/hr) Our estimation is that 300 TR of cooling is possible with a suitable VAM machine(s). Please advise what is the most suitable arrangement with maximum TR and min Capital expenditure. plz reply me as early as possible
