Énergie primaireUne source d’énergie primaire est une forme d’énergie disponible dans la nature avant toute transformation. Si elle n’est pas utilisable directement, elle doit être transformée en une source d’énergie secondaire pour être utilisable et transportable facilement. Dans l'industrie de l'énergie, on distingue la production d'énergie primaire, de son stockage et son transport sous la forme de vecteurs d'énergie et de la consommation d'énergie finale.
Object storageObject storage (also known as object-based storage) is a computer data storage that manages data as objects, as opposed to other storage architectures like which manages data as a file hierarchy, and block storage which manages data as blocks within sectors and tracks. Each object typically includes the data itself, a variable amount of metadata, and a globally unique identifier. Object storage can be implemented at multiple levels, including the device level (object-storage device), the system level, and the interface level.
Droop speed controlDroop speed control is a control mode used for AC electrical power generators, whereby the power output of a generator reduces as the line frequency increases. It is commonly used as the speed control mode of the governor of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid. It works by controlling the rate of power produced by the prime mover according to the grid frequency.
Non-local variableIn programming language theory, a non-local variable is a variable that is not defined in the local scope. While the term can refer to global variables, it is primarily used in the context of nested and anonymous functions where some variables can be in neither the local nor the global scope. In Lua they are called the upvalues of the function. In the Python 3 example that follows there is a nested function inner defined in the scope of another function outer.
