Performance Evaluation of Wood Gasifier
Abstract: Generating electrical energy through biomass has advantages besides achieving self-sustainability. Biomass is particularly useful for agriculture dependent economy nations like India. Energy conversion systems based on biomass are particularly interesting because biomass utilization effectively closes the carbon cycle. An experimental investigation on biomass based gasifier engine system of 35kVA capacity has been carried out for power generation application. Problems of cooling and cleaning hot and dirty gas from gasifier has …

Specific Contact Resistance of CuxO Thin Films Deposited by r. f. Sputtering Method
Abstract: Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This paper contains measurement of contact resistivity and bulk resistivity of CuxO (0<x<1) thin films deposited by r. f. sputtering method. The conditions for deposition of CuxO thin film were optimized by varying the r. f. power to vary the contact resistivity and bulk resistivity. Electrical characterizations were performed by Transmission Line Model (TLM) and Vertical Transmission Model (VTM) studies. The films deposited on glass substrate have …

Texture Segmentation Using Multichannel Filtering And Kohonen’s Self Organizing Map
Abstract: The texture is very important cue in region based segmentation of images. Texture features play a very important role in computer vision and pattern recognition. Texture segmentation can be broken down into two areas, feature extraction and clustering. In this paper, we implement two stage of feature extraction technique using multichannel filter and Self Organizing Map (SOM). Firstly, we go through channel filters, also known as 2-D Gabor functions. The …
