A Review on Waste Heat Recovery Processes and a Proposed Scheme for Commercial Establishments
Abstract: AbstractWhen the matter of harvesting waste heat is considered, the major questions that arise are the amount of waste heat generated and the efficiency of conversion of the same into useful energy. This paper reviews recent research on waste heat recovery and also proposes an idea of how we can harness waste heat from commercial establishments using Thermopiles / Thermoelectric Generators and use that electrical energy for low power loads. …

Safety Management in Indian Nuclear Power Plants
Abstract: AbstractNuclear industry goes to great lengths to ensure that safety takes overriding priority in siting, design, construction, and operation of nuclear power plants. There are well established safety principles and practices, which are followed internationally. The principle of defence in depth is followed in toto, to ensure that safety provisions are adequate and consequences would be acceptable. Management of safety is carried out by the regulating authority through periodic safety …

A Thermal Review and Simulation of Renewable Tube Heat Exchanger – A Review
Abstract: AbstractRenewable energy is the conventional source of energy. It is the endless source of energy and quality available in nature. At the present scenario, heating and cooling is a major concern in environment due to global warming. Air conditioning systems has been developed to resolve major part of energy is being engaged in such issues, which also causes global warming. Renewable tube heat exchanger is a renewable source of energy …
