The Thermal Physical Phenomenon of Some Native Wood Species in NigeriaBy Paul Philip, R. Layi Fagbenle
Abstract: The Determination of the thermal conductivity of some selected local wood species from measurement of necessary parameters required in its determination were performed using the Lee's disc method of measuring the thermal conductivity of a poor conductor in the form of a flat disc. Five hardwood species commonly patronized by timber contractors, builders, woodcarvers and cabinet-makers in Ile-Ife town, Nigeria were selected. The steady state method was employed in this …

Exploration of Geothermal Energy from Abandoned Oil wells (A Case Study of Eleme, Porthacourt, River State, Nigeria)By Paul Philip, A. M. El-jummah
Abstract: This project considers the basic technical aspects of power generations from some abandoned oil wells which involve the analysis of the data from the wells. The power capacity of the wells in the first category is determined primarily by the temperature of the produced water and conversion efficiency of the geothermal power plant. The factors that control the wellhead temperature of the produced fluid are: formation temperature, well depth, well …
