Heat and Mass Transfer

In engines, an exhaust heat recovery system turns thermal losses in the exhaust pipe into energy. Even though the current generation engines consume less fuel than they used to, the thermal efficiency of an internal combustion engine has not much improved since its creation. The main purpose of this work is to further improve the heat recovery from exhaust of the engine. By optimizing the geometry of the HEX fins, it is required to achieve maximum heat transfer with acceptable pressure drop which makes back pressure in the exhaust. The heat exchanger used in this work is a curved finned tube heat exchanger which is supposed to deliver more heat transfer than the flat finned tube heat exchangers. Thereby, increasing the waste heat recovery. In order to achieve maximum heat recovery amount and minimum pressure drop along the heat exchanger, optimization is carried out for the geometry of the curved finned heat exchanger such as different fin curvatures, fins height, and are modelled numerically. The best combination of fin geometries for maximum desirability is to be found out. The study is conducted with the help of CFD simulation package Ansys CFX.

Heat transfer

The advancement in science had led to highly complicated electronic devices and at the same time the size of such devices is getting reduced day by day. The amount of heat generated by these devices is increasing in par with its complexity. The efficiency of electronics devices decreases with increase in temperature. The cooling of these devices to their normal working temperature is a great challenge since the area available for heat transfer will be very less and there is restricted movement of air. This paper deals with jet impingement cooling, in which high velocity jets are used for removal of heat from a surface. The jets are arranged in the form of a staggered array and are pulsating in nature. To increase the turbulence in the flow domain the jets are pulsated at a phase shift. The study is carried out at different frequencies. The objective of this study is to compare the heat transfer at different combinations of frequencies and angles of phase shift and find the combination at which the heat transfer is maximum. The study is done using computational fluid dynamics software tool ANSYS Fluent version 14.

Modern construction industry is aiming at incorporating cost effective, economic, durable and light weight sections in their construction practice. Cold formed steel sections due to its high post buckling strength and the above mentioned qualities have a become a favorite building material among engineers. Hence it is necessary to make an in depth study about the buckling behavior of cold formed steel sections to understand about the most economical design of light gauge sections. Even though studies on individual flexural members like channel sections, lipped channel sections, zed sections have been done there are a very few researches on built-up I sections which is a very important flexural member. In this study, cold formed sections under considerations are built-up I sections. Finite element analyses are used to investigate the web buckling behavior of various cold formed built-up I sections with and without web holes, under interior two flange and interior one flange loading conditions. Sections are made with similar cross sectional areas for comparison. The web holes are located at the mid-depth of the sections with a horizontal clear distance of the web holes to the near edge of the bearing plate. This becomes of great importance to study the effect of web holes on the strength of the sections so that a better precise design and economy can be maintained.

Heat Exchangers

Finned tube heat exchanger are used for heat transfer between air, gas and liquids or steam. Heat exchanger with finned heating surfaces, so-called finned tube heat exchanger, offer the possibility of heat transfer between gases and liquids significantly space-saving and is more efficient to implement than it is possible with straight tubes. finned tube heat exchangers are designed to transfer heat from clean air and gases with high efficiency on liquids or vapors, and vice versa. In this way the media can be heated, cooled or condensed, in a closely space. Finned tube heat exchangers can be used for different applications and in a variety of designs. In this work a model of finned tube heat exchanger was made and by using ANSYS fluent and used Al2O3 nanofluid as cooant for heat transfer enhancement and the analysis was carried out . CFD simulations are done for different concentration of Al2O3 at different flow speed . temperature contours in all the cases can be plotted by using CFD.by this we can clearly understand the heat transfer enhancement role of small concentration of nano particle on base fluid

In the recent times we are constantly hearing about petrol bunk frauds. Most of the petrol bunks today have manipulated the pumps such that it displays the amount as entered but the quantity of fuel filled in the customer’s tank is much lesser than the displayed value. I.et the pumps are tampered for the benefit of the petrol bunks owner. This results in huge profits for the petrol bunks but at the same time the customers are cheated. All the vehicles in India consist of analog meters hence it is not possible to precisely know the amount of fuel currently in the vehicle and also it is not possible to cross check the quantity of fuel filled in the petrol bunk. In this project we focus on creating a digital display of the exact amount of fuel contained in the vehicles tank and also helps in cross checking the quantity of fuel filled at the petrol bunk. In addition to this the project also tends to find the mileage of the bike which is a time consuming and tedious job to do manually by noting down the readings all the time and the proposed system will also show the nearest petrol pump using GPS when the fuel tank goes in reserve mode.

The purpose of this paper to review some major studies to determine the relation between the safety climate and safety of an organization. Safety climate acts as a demonstrator of safety level in an organization. Improvement of the safety of an organization like by subjugating the risk-taking behavior of the employee, by improving the safety performance of worker, by scale down the underreporting of injuries and accidents only possible by positive safety climate. Most of the studies show that the positive safety climate is associated with the improved safety of an organization which at last long decreases the risk of workplace injuries and accidents.

The present paper describes the characteristics of leachate generated from municipal solid waste landfilling sites of Kuberpur, Agra. The main objective of this study was to collected and analysed for various physic-chemical parameters to estimate its pollution potential. This paper provides a reliable and robust database to serve as a reference for the implementation of the most suitable technique for reducing the negative environmental effects of discharge leachate at Kuberpur site. It has been found that leachate contains high concentrations of organic and inorganic constituents beyond the permissible limits. While, heavy metals concentration was in trace amount as the waste is domestic in nature. The data presented in this study indicated that the age of the landfill has a significant effect on leachate composition. The biodegradable fraction of organic pollutants in the leachate decreases as an outcome of the anaerobic decomposition occurring in the landfill.

Surface finish and material removal rate are two important factors in the manufacturing which affect acceptability of the product which in turn reflects on the profitability of the organization. The worth of the production setup to produce the components with high material removal rate (MRR) without sacrificing the surface requirements can play vital role in sustainability and profitability of the organization. In this paper, the effect of process parameters on metal removal rate and surface roughness has been investigated in milling of AL material with Carbide end mill cutter. Cutting speed, feed and depth of cut have been taken as input factors in three level response surface methodologies used for experimentation. Mathematical models have been developed using response surface methodology to predict surface finish, and metal removal rate in term of machining parameters. Depth of cut and feed rate are found to be a dominant parameter for surface roughness; whereas feed rate mainly affects the metal removal rate.

DNA Cryptography

The most common and widely used technique in the communication security and computer security fields is cryptography. Cryptography includes converting some data to incomprehensible format so that a non-intended recipient cannot determine its intended meaning. In this project, a binary form of data, such as plaintext message transformed into sequences of DNA nucleotides. The proposed method is a two-step procedure. First it converts the text messages to a DNA format, subsequently the nucleotides are passing through a Playfair Encryption process based on amino acids structure and in the second phase hide these message in a reference DNA sequence using 3:1 hiding rule.

Energy Reduction in Mobile Phones

In today’s world, there is an increasing demand of high data transfer rates in the IT industry which is highly achieved at the expense of a large amount of energy. The most common way to establish communication between the devices is to use Wi-Fi whether it is being used to browse internet or being used to transfer the data. The basic Wi-Fi offers high bandwidth which is much greater when compared to what Bluetooth provides. At the same time, while using mobile phones in specific, Wi-Fi uses a lot more power as compared to Bluetooth (active as well as inactive mode), which reduces the battery efficiency of the mobile phones. To overcome this issue, we propose to use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi alternatively by switching between these technologies based on the application requirements demand raised instead of performing the switching process based on the bandwidth used. The proposed scheme doesn’t require any change to the mobile applications but still increases the battery efficiency of the mobile devices and reduces the power consumption of data transfer.

Human comfortness is essential now a day because of the improvement in life style and increasing atmospheric temperature. Electrical air conditioning machines are not most suitable for large buildings because of the higher power consumption and shorter life. Central air conditioning or chilled water system is more reliable for easy operation with a lower maintenance cost for large building. With large buildings such as commercial complex, auditorium, office buildings are provided with central air conditioning system. Educational and research institutions, Hotels, Hospitals, malls etc. are also need human comfortness, as the population of student community increase year by year. The effective design of central air conditioning or a chiller system can provide lower power consumption, capital cost and improve aesthetics of a building. This paper establishes the results of cooling load calculation of different climate conditions by installing dehumidifier. By using CLTD method and Carrier program then the results are compared for a single-story building which is a part of an institute. Cooling load items such as, Electrical equipments, people heat gain, lighting heat gain, infiltration and ventilation heat gain can easily be putted to the MS-Excel programme. The programme can also be used to calculate cooling load due to walls and roofs. And results were compared with the standard data given by ASHRAE and CARRIER Fundamental Hand Books, hourly analysis programme and results are satisfactory. It is also seen that in this paper cooling requirement of without dehumidifier is about 20 % more as compare to with dehumidifier for climate condition of Thiruvanathapuram, Kerala in India. It will be a significant for a large commercial building.

Mobile Ad Hoc Network

The Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network, or VANET, is a technology that uses moves cars as nodes in a network to create a mobile network. VANET turns every participating car into a wireless router or node, allowing cars approximately 100 to 300 metres of each other to connect and, in turn, create a network with a wide range. As cars fall out of the signal range and drop out of the network, other cars can join in, connecting vehicles to one another so that a mobile Internet is created. Working with GPSR routing protocol main aim is to increase the performance and the efficiency of the GPSR as well as E-GPSR routing protocol. In this paper, we also give out a mathematical model to evaluate the performance of our proposal. Basing on the model, we use ns to simulate the highway condition. Form the result, we find that our proposal is better that GPSR at aspect of time delay. But in the packet delivery ratio, it doesn't bring us a remarkable improvement. The proposed methodology considers the border node and angle of orientation of the neighboring nodes. Based on this the D-GPSR outperforms the GPSR and E-GPSR routing protocol in terms of throughput, average end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio and network load. D-GPSR is methodology and algorithm is studied in detailed.

With increasingly stricter legislations worldwide and shrinking reserves of fossil fuels, biodiesel has emerged out as one of the most promising alternative fuel for diesel engines. However, one major drawback of biodiesel is that it produces higher NOx emissions than mineral diesel although the soot emissions are comparatively lower due to its different combustion characteristics. In the present work, Jatropha biodiesel has been proposed as an alternative fuel for powering existing diesel engine. Transesterification has been carried out for effective utilization of Jatropha oil. Thermal efficiency, brake specific fuel consumption(BSFC),smoke opacity, exhaust gas temperature(EGT),brake mean effective pressure(BMEP) have been measured for Jatropha oil. A comparable study is carried out on the basis of different performance curves, which are plotted for each proportion between thermal efficiency versus brake mean effective pressure(BMEP), smoke opacity versus brake mean effective pressure(BMEP) and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) versus brake mean effective pressure(BMEP). Transesterification process is a very effective process for reducing high viscosity of vegetable oils and bringing about changes at molecular level. Vegetable oils do not exhibit combustion related problems and the transesterification process produces a Bio-origin fuel that behaves almost like mineral diesel oil.

An automatic brake system for a vehicle consists of an electric motor, related to the motor for transmission motion from the motor to a brake lever that pushes the restraint. This project provides a brand new idea style of the EMPB (electro mechanical parking brakes) system that has straightforward and cheap characteristics. This project deals with coming up with and fabrication of EMPB system. Mechanical device hand brake system conjointly remarked as brake by-wire, replace typical parking braking systems with a totally electrical part system. This happens by replacement typical linkages with electrical motor-driven units. The braking force is generated directly at every wheel by high performance electrical motors and automobile management, that area unit controlled by an ECU. The electronic hand brake replaces the traditional handbrake. It’s operated by a switch within the center console. The mechanical device hand brake provides the subsequent edges over the traditional handbrake: easy use-the hand brake is applied totally no matter the strength of the driving force. Safety- the electrical hand brake applies mechanically once the key is off from the ignition.

Virtual Manufacturing system is a computer system which is utilised to generate the same information about manufacturing system’s structure, states and behaviours as we can observe in real manufacturing systems. Virtual reality and virtual manufacturing often concentrate on an interface between VR technology, manufacturing, production theory and practice. It is our belief that the direction of evolution of manufacturing theory and practice will become clearer in the future once the role of VR technology is understood better in developing this interface. Virtual Manufacturing will have a similar effect on the manufacturing phase thanks to the modelling, simulation and optimisation of the product and the processes involved in its fabrication. After a description of Virtual Manufacturing (definitions and scope), we present some socio-economic factors of VM and finally some “hot topics” for the future are proposed.

Heat Transfer

Heat exchangers find extensive use in industrial applications such as automotive systems, power generation, nuclear industry, process plants, heat recovery systems, refrigeration systems, food industry, etc. A heat exchanger is a device where two fluids streams come into thermal contact in order to transfer the heat from hot fluid to cold fluid stream. It has been widely reported in literature that heat transfer rates in helical coils are higher as compared to those in straight tubes. Due to the compact structure and high heat transfer coefficient, helical coil are a preferred means of heat transfer which is finding application in the industry. In this investigation the aim is to identify the effects of variation of Helical Pitch, the Helical diameter and the effect of orientation on the heat transfer rate and efficiency for helical heat exchangers

A ceiling fan is a mechanical device usually electrically powered, Suspended from the ceiling of a room, that uses hub mounted rotating blades to circulate air. The electrically powered ceiling fan was invented by 1882 by Philip Diehl. The disadvantage of existing ceiling fan is to cover small area of room, so cooling capacity will be decrease. A multi axis ceiling fan is a basically modification of existing ceiling fan. A fan mounted overhead for universal adjustment of the air flow direction. Its consists of gear mechanism and ac & dc motor. Multi axes ceiling fan will cover large area of room
