A New Approach to Analyze the Performance of Flat Plate Collector
Abstract: AbstractAs per standards, the thermal efficiency test for the flat plate collector is used to be conducted under specified steady state conditions and then incident angle modifier ‘Kτα’ has been used to calculate the thermal efficiency at a different angle of incidence. These standards do not consider the effect of solar azimuth angle, as well as time consumption and require the costly test setup. In this paper, a new approach …

Comparative Adsorption Studies on Raw Rice Husk, Acid Leached Rice Husk and Base Leached Rice Husk by Using Methylene Blue as Dye
Abstract: Current methods for removing dyes from wastewaters are costly and cannot effectively be used to treat wide range of such wastewaters. This work describes the use of raw rice husk (RRH), acid-leached rice husk (ALRH) and base-leached rice husk (BLRH) as adsorbents for decolorization. Characterization of raw rice was done by powder X-ray diffraction (P-XRD) analysis, surface area analysis and scanning electron microscopy. Raw rice husk was collected directly from …

Perturbant Effect of Iron in Free and Complexed Form on the Briggs-Rauscher Oscillating Reaction
Abstract: The present work is aimed to investigate the perturbations of the oscillatory regime of Briggs-Rauscher (BR) reaction by Fe(bipy)32+ and Fe(C2O4)33‑ complexes in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The path of the perturbation (immediate quenching of oscillation -inhibition time- resumption of oscillations) provoked by the ferrous complex (Fe(bipy)32+) was found different to that of the ferric complex (Fe(C2O4)33‑). The initial concentration of Fe(bipy)32+ complex showed a linear dependence on …

Modelling and Evaluation of Kinetics of Methane Chlorination using Matlab Techniques
Abstract: The chlorination of methane follows series-consecutive reaction mechanism to yield the chloromethanes products. The equation of reaction comprised of four consecutive step chemical reaction equations. The kinetics model for chlorination of methane into monochloromethane, dichloromethane, trichloromethane and tetrachloromethane was developed from the chemical reaction equations. In the elementary rate equation, the concentration of chlorine was assumed to be in excess, reducing the model to first order kinetics. The developed model …

FPGA-based Multichannel Digital Duty-Cycle Modulation and Application to Simultaneous Generation of Analog Signals
Abstract: The DCM (duty-cycle modulation) is used in industrial electronics as a special technique for producing switching time-varying periodic waves, with variable pulse width and modulation period. As an implication, unlike the fixed period of a PWM wave, the cyclic ratio of a DCM signal changes as a function of the modulating input according to a known function. However, most existing research works related to DCM-based instrumentation systems, are limited to …
