New Delhi ‘Odd–Even II’: A Hasty Repeat
Abstract: Three months after Odd–Even I, Delhi government again came forward with Odd–Even phase II experiment during April 15–30, 2016 without making any change in the rules of ‘Odd– Even’ phase I. This time too, the pollution level was not improved. Results indicated that the levels of PM2.5 and ozone were showing poor air quality at various sites in the city. At Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences, Dilshad Garden, …

Optimal Operation of Self-Sustainable Green Microgrid in Deregulated Power Sector
Abstract: This paper presents the concept of self-sustainable green microgrid consisting of renewable energy sources like wind, solar etc. The intermittent nature of renewable energy sources has been taken into account by using pump storage unit, which stores the surplus green energy. The novelty of the work lies in the fact that green energy has been utilized as, when available, to the maximum of its capacity, and given priority over thermal …

Thyroid Disorders in Regard to Aetiology, Clinical Patterns, Management
Abstract: Thyroid disorders are one of the important and common endocrine problems encountered in clinical and occupational practice in all age groups more frequently in women and in adult population. Amongst all the functional thyroid disorders, hypothyroidism is far more common than hyperthyroidism. Recognition of this condition at an early stage can delay the progression to overt disease. Appropriate use of biochemical test, i.e., thyroid function test can delineate practically all …

Numerical Simulation of Entrained-flow Coal Gasification: A Study on Particles History
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Studies of coal particle history during coal gasification inside the gasifier are very limited. A comprehensive 3D numerical simulation of entrained-flow coal gasification is conducted. The Eulerian-Lagrangian approach is applied to solve the Navier-Stokes equations and the particle dynamics. The finite rate/eddy dissipation model is used to calculate the rate of gasgas phase reactions, whereas only finite rates are used for solid-gas phase reactions. …
