"Flatsun" at La Gaîté Lyrique (2011) by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. "Solar Equation," 2010 Aerostat, 5 HD projectors, 7 computers, custom software 14m / 48' balloon "Solar Equation" is a large-scale public art installation that consists of a faithful simulation of the Sun, 100 million times smaller than the real thing. Commissioned by the Light in Winter Festival in Melbourne, the piece features the world's largest spherical balloon, custom-manufactured for the project, which is tethered over Federation Square and animated using five projectors.
The solar animation on the balloon is generated by live mathematical equations that simulate the turbulence, flares and sunspots that can be seen on the surface of the Sun. This produces a constantly changing display that never repeats itself, giving viewers a glimpse of the majestic phenomena that are observable at the solar surface and that only relatively recent advances in astronomy have discovered.

"Flatsun," 2011 custom-made LED screen, computerized surveillance tracking system, fluid dynamic algorithms (Navier Stokes, fractal flames, reaction diffusion and Perlin noise), aluminium, stainless steel, glass 55.12" / 140 cm diameter 6.3" / 6 cm depth edition of 6 Installation view at La Gaîté Lyrique, Paris, France. A circular display that simulates the turbulence at the surface of the Sun using mathematical equations like navier-stokes, reaction-difussion and perlin noise. The piece reacts to the presence of the public by varying the speed and type of animation displayed. If no one is in front of the piece the turbulence slows down and eventually turns off.

Conozca más sobre la energía geotérmica. INBioparque inaugura Sala de Volcanes y Geotermia. La nueva atracción tiene la misión de mostrar la actividad volcánica costarricense y los esfuerzos que el país realiza en el desarrollo y la implementación de fuentes de energías limpias y renovables, las cuales contribuyen a la conservación de la biodiversidad del país. Esta nueva sala de exhibición está diseñada para recibir diversos grupos en un espacio amplio y ameno, con aplicaciones interactivas que propiciarán una experiencia entretenida y educativa a los visitantes.
Una de las principales atracciones de la sala es un gran volcán, con sensaciones de sonido, luces y movimiento, acompañado de información sobre los volcanes activos de Costa Rica, usando aplicaciones como; tomas áereas en formato digital, trivias, así como fotografías en gran formato y videos. Eco Kids Explore: Geothermal Energy. Energy and kids. Three different types of power plants - dry steam, flash, and binary - are used to generate electricity from geothermal energy, depending on temperature, depth, and quality of the water and steam in the area. In all cases the condensed steam and remaining geothermal fluid is injected back into the ground to pick up more heat. In some locations, the natural supply of water producing steam from the hot underground magma deposits has been exhausted and processed waste water is injected to replenish the supply. Most geothermal fields have more fluid recharge than heat, so re-injection can cool the resource, unless it is carefully managed.
Dry Steam Power Plants A dry steam power plant uses dry steam, typically above 235°C (455°F), to directly power its turbines. Dry steam is steam that contains no water droplets. Flash steam Flash steam power plants use hot water above 182 °C (360 °F) from geothermal reservoirs. Ellis & Associates :: Architectural models + more.
