Mathematical Study and Steady-State Modeling of Simple Vapour Adsorption Refrigeration System
Abstract: Abstract This paper discusses the mathematical formulation for various heats involved during different processes of a simple vapour adsorption refrigeration cycle having activated carbon and methanol as the active working pairs. This formulation is further used and a detailed analysis of the cycle’s performance is studied based on a steady-state model prepared on the FORTRAN77 platform compiler. The analysis includes effects of the input parameters of the cycle such as …

Analysis of Thermodynamic Behavior of a Turbulent Air Flow in a Rectangular Duct
Abstract: Abstract A numerical study of turbulent air flow in a rectangular duct with three plate and waved baffles was investigated. The governing equations, based on the model k-ε realizable used to describe the turbulence, are solved by the finite volume method with the use of the SIMPLE algorithm. The dynamic and thermal structure of the flow was analyzed by the presentation of several parameters, namely, the intensity of turbulence, reports …

Canopy Design and Fabrication for Reducing Noise Level Generated at Work Place without Affecting Equipment/Machine Performance
Abstract: Abstract Laws governing the safety and health of employed people exist in most countries of the world, the purpose being to create a suitable working environment and eliminate unsafe practices and processes. Work areas should be designed and laid out so that they are satisfactory both, from the environmental and safety points of view. In this connection, safety also implies that noise is kept at a level, which is not …

Comparative Analysis of Vapour Compression Mini Ice Cream Plant by Using Different Size Capillary Tubes
Abstract: Abstract An experimental set up is made for comparative analysis of vapour compression mini ice cream plant by applying different size capillary tubes. The experiments were performed and results were recorded for comparing the best unit. The capillary tube was formed in coil shape having different inner diameters such as 0.79 and 1.12 mm. The pressure at suction and discharge of capillary were recorded to evaluate the cycle COP, power …

Performance Improvement of Air Cooled Condenser of Split Air Conditioner: A Study
Abstract: Abstract Running residential or commercial split type air-conditioners plays a vital role for increasing electrical energy consumption in large quantity. While considering the performance of air conditioning system or specific energy consumption which is to be considered, as a function of condenser, compressor and evaporator performance respectively. By improving the heat transfer efficiency of the condenser performance improvement can be achieved, which helps in reducing electrical consumption. In the present …
