This article presents a numerical investigation of mass and heat transfer effects on an unsteady Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) nanofluid flow in a permeable pipe. The influences of the chemical reaction and magnetic flux are considered. With the central finite-difference technique, the fundamental equations are discretized. The resulting equations are solved numerically using methods of lines, bvp4, and shooting methods. The influences of material factors on the solution are investigated and displayed through tabular and graphical illustrations. The study revealed that the Sherwood number, skin friction, and rate of heat transfer are all decreased by an increase in the magnetic field. Additionally, the rate of rise of the chemical reaction and Brownian motion is observed to reduce the concentration of the nanofluid. Furthermore, the study finds that the Soret number, porosity medium resistance parameter, and thermophoresis parameter all cause the concentration profile to climb; while, increasing the pace of the chemical reaction and brown mobility leads the profile to decline. Key words: Chemical reaction, porous medium, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD, nanofluid.
本文用数值方法研究了非定常磁流体(MHD)纳米流体在可渗透管道中的质量和传热效应。考虑了化学反应和磁通量的影响。利用中心有限差分技术对基本方程进行离散化。利用直线法、bvp4法和射击法对所得方程进行了数值求解。研究了材料因素对溶液的影响,并通过表格和图解进行了展示。研究表明,随着磁场的增大,舍伍德数、表面摩擦和换热率均降低。此外,观察到化学反应和布朗运动的上升速率降低了纳米流体的浓度。此外,研究发现Soret数、孔隙介质阻力参数和热泳参数均导致浓度曲线升高;然而,增加化学反应的速度和褐色迁移率会导致剖面下降。关键词:化学反应,多孔介质,磁流体力学,纳米流体

Recently, American Sign Language has been widely researched to help disabled people to communicate with others. However; the Arabic Sign Language “ASL” has received much less attention. This paper has proposed a smart glove which has been designed using flex sensors to collect a dataset about hand gestures applying ASL. The dataset is composed of resistance and voltage measurements for the bending of the fingers to represent alpha-numeric characters. The measurements are manipulated using normalization and zero referencing methods to create the dataset. A Convolutional Neural Network ‘CNN’ composed of twenty-one layers is proposed. The dataset is used to train the CNN, and the Accuracy and Loss parameters are used to characterize its success. The dataset is classified with an average success rate of 95% based on the classification accuracy. Loss has decreased from 3 to less than 0.5. The proposed CNN layers have classified ASL characters with a reasonable degree of accuracy.

Leakages in a pipeline are an important problem due to the potential economic and environmental hazard they present. In this study, we proposed a LoRaWAN-based approach for detecting and localizing leakages in pipelines. Our study includes an experimental setup that simulates a pipeline network with pressure and flow rate sensors attached. The flow rate and pressure data were transmitted through LoRaWAN to a receiver, which in turn uploads the data to a cloud server using a cellular network. The receiver compares the flow rate reading from all the monitoring nodes attached to the pipeline network. If flow rate reading from successive nodes presents a percentage variation of more than 1.5%, a leak is confirmed to have taken place. The flow rate readings can also be used to localize the leak. The resolution of the leak detection is dependent on the number of monitoring nodes on the pipeline network. In our study, the pressure readings were found to be insufficient to provide reliable evidence of leakages. In our specific situation, due to the relatively short length of the experimental pipeline network, a pressure drop of up to 38.2% was recorded between successive nodes with an overall pressure loss of 62%, making pressure data unsuitable for leak detection in the short pipeline network.
由于潜在的经济和环境危害,管道泄漏是一个重要的问题。在这项研究中,我们提出了一种基于lorawan的方法来检测和定位管道中的泄漏。我们的研究包括一个实验装置,模拟附有压力和流量传感器的管道网络。流速和压力数据通过LoRaWAN传输到接收器,接收器再通过蜂窝网络将数据上传到云服务器。接收端比较连接到管网的所有监测节点的流量读数。如果连续节点的流量读数呈现超过1.5%的百分比变化,则确认发生泄漏。流速读数也可用于定位泄漏。泄漏检测的分辨率取决于管网中监控节点的数量。在我们的研究中,发现压力读数不足以提供可靠的泄漏证据。在我们的具体情况下,由于实验管网长度较短,连续节点之间的压降高达38.2%,总压力损失为62%,使得压力数据不适合短管网中的泄漏检测。

The Wave Energy Conversion System (WECS) control strategy is presented in this study to make sure the system operates at its best under fluctuating wave resource situations. The suggested system consists of a MOPSO based MPC approach, a point absorber WEC oscillating in heave, back-to-back power converter for grid connections, and a linear permanent magnet generator. Despite the benefits of model predictive control, problems including switching frequency variations, steady-state errors, high processing costs, and constrained prediction horizons continue to exist. The article presents a method that incorporates the switching control action into the cost function while maintaining the finite nature of a model predictive control to handle the switching frequency issue. In order to minimise switching frequency variations while also addressing other control goals, such as regulating the direct current linked voltage and controlling the flow of active and reactive power, the switching control weight factors are optimised. In order to increase power quality, a fuel cell-based short-term energy storage system is also included to direct current link between the back-to-back converters.
提出了波浪能转换系统(WECS)的控制策略,以保证系统在波浪资源波动情况下的最佳运行状态。建议的系统包括基于MOPSO的MPC方法,在升沉中振荡的点吸收器WEC,用于电网连接的背靠背功率转换器和线性永磁发电机。尽管模型预测控制具有优势,但包括开关频率变化、稳态误差、高处理成本和受限预测范围在内的问题仍然存在。本文提出了一种将开关控制动作纳入成本函数的方法,同时保持模型预测控制的有限性质来处理开关频率问题。为了最大限度地减少开关频率变化,同时也解决其他控制目标,如调节直流连接电压和控制有功和无功功率的流动,开关控制权重因子被优化。为了提高电能质量,一个基于燃料电池的短期能量存储系统也被包括在背靠背转换器之间的直流连接中。

The need for bioenergy as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels is increasing, and the production of biofuels using bacteria is considered one of the prominent methods used in this field. This research aims to model the process of producing biofuels using bacteria and storing them using a chemical storage system. A mathematical model was used to analyse the process, where the chemical constants and optimal environmental conditions for the process were determined. The process variables were identified, including acidity level, increased production coefficient, and the effect of thermal variables on the process. The productivity and efficiency of the process of producing biofuels using bacteria were analysed, and the effect of environmental variables on this process was studied. The produced biofuels were stored in a chemical storage system, where the system was analysed, and the appropriate conditions for safely storing biofuels were determined. The data resulting from the mathematical model and the storage system were analysed and graphed. The research concluded that biofuels can be efficiently produced using bacteria and safely stored using a chemical storage system. The effect of environmental variables was analysed, and the chemical constants used in the mathematical model were optimized, resulting in a significant improvement in the efficiency of the process. The results of this research can be used to improve the process of producing biofuels and develop safer and more efficient storage systems for biofuels.

The software product is high used by the society in general and its development complexity are inputs of this research that gears into the software development processes. The mapping and modelling of software processes, as well as their standardization are not trivial tasks in the industry of software. Therefore, process mining practices can be useful for discovering or validating processes. This article presents a hypothetical software development project that uses the agile SCRUM method, Jira software, Jenkins pipeline and a process mining tool called ProM. As the project team generates many records using the software development tools, these records are considered event logs and it is be used during process mining activities. ProM allows users to identify processes from the event logs and is used with the records generated by Jira and Jenkins. The visualization of a possible process derived from the use of these event logs is presented when using the ProM tool and the Flexible Heuristics Miner algorithm. In conclusion, process mining can be useful to discover or validate existing software processes during the execution of a software project, also allowing these processes to be standardized to be used in future projects.

Spectral methods for the solution of a boundary value problem of an ordinary differential equation are reviewed with particular emphasis laid on pseudo-spectral collocation method. The pseudo-collocation method is then used to solve the one dimensional bio-heat equation with metabolic heat generation in cylindrical coordinates applied to human tissue. It was noticed that an increase in heat transfer coefficient (hA), enhanced the temperature but a decrease in the tissue thickness was observed when this coefficient was increased. The effects of the combined heat transfer coefficient are analyzed and the results indicate that the obtained solution can be used in the study of the thermal behaviour of a biological system with the potential to locate tumours in the living tissue.

The technical cost incurred in providing adequate services for drinkable water production and distribution is high in developing countries of which Nigeria is no exception. By analysing the energy aspect of this cost, with a view of eliminating non-value-adding energy wastes, the cost of production can be reduced. In this work, an energy audit of the University of Ibadan water factory has been carried out, as a means of reducing the electrical energy wastes within the factory, as well as the associated costs to these energy wastes. Data on equipment being used and their power ratings were collected via walkthrough audit, by means of interviews and personnel observation, and thereafter inputted into Excel spreadsheet in order to determine the extent of energy consumption of each of the factory equipment, areas of energy wastage and areas of energy conservation opportunities. The factory’s structural data was obtained through the use of a 50m fibre measuring tape, in order to carry out lighting, air-conditioning and ventilation assessments on selected rooms in the factory, as means of proper energy conservation. Energy management measures were deployed by suggestion of more efficient equipment. Major equipment found includes automatic filling machine, pumps, steam generator, conveyor etc. The total electrical energy consumption of the factory was 9,280.899 kWh, of which equipment such as pumps took 20% (highest energy consumption). Areas of major energy consumption include pet blowing room, production room 1, production room 2 and the borehole area. While the current cooling capacities of most rooms in the factory were above the cooling requirement of each room, the luminosity requirement of selected rooms in the factory is surpassed by the current luminosity level found. Energy management measures were found to reduce the energy consumption of the factory by 17%, saving a sum of 87,906.207 naira of electrical energy cost monthly. In conclusion, the energy audit carried out on the University of Ibadan water factory was found useful in reducing energy waste and associated costs within the water factory. This approach can be applied in industries for electricity cost reduction, hence, production cost.
在发展中国家,为饮用水的生产和分配提供适当的服务所需的技术费用很高,尼日利亚也不例外。通过分析这一成本的能源方面,以消除非增值能源浪费的观点,可以降低生产成本。在这项工作中,对伊巴丹大学水厂进行了能源审计,作为减少工厂内电能浪费以及这些能源浪费的相关费用的一种手段。通过走访审计、访谈和人员观察等方式收集正在使用的设备及其额定功率的数据,然后输入到Excel电子表格中,以确定工厂每台设备的能耗程度、能源浪费区域和节能机会区域。工厂的结构数据是通过使用50米的纤维卷尺获得的,以便对工厂内选定的房间进行照明、空调和通风评估,作为适当节能的手段。通过建议使用更高效的设备,采取了能源管理措施。主要设备包括自动灌装机、泵、蒸汽发生器、输送机等。工厂用电总能耗9280.899 kWh,其中水泵等设备能耗占20%(能耗最高)。主要能耗区域包括宠物吹制室、生产1室、生产2室和钻孔区。虽然工厂内大多数房间的当前制冷量高于每个房间的冷却要求,但工厂内选定房间的光度要求超过了当前发现的光度水平。发现能源管理措施使工厂的能源消耗减少了17%,每月节省87,906.207奈拉的电费。最后,对伊巴丹大学水厂进行的能源审计发现有助于减少水厂内的能源浪费和相关费用。这种方法可以应用于工业,降低电力成本,从而降低生产成本。

By analysing the energy aspect of this cost, with a view of eliminating non-value-adding energy wastes, the cost of production can be reduced. In this work, an energy audit of the University of Ibadan water factory has been carried out, as a means of reducing the electrical energy wastes within the factory, as well as the associated costs to these energy wastes. Data on equipment being used and their power ratings were collected via walkthrough audit, by means of interviews and personnel observation, and thereafter inputted into Excel spreadsheet in order to determine the extent of energy consumption of each of the factory equipment, areas of energy wastage and areas of energy conservation opportunities. The factory’s structural data was obtained through the use of a 50m fibre measuring tape, in order to carry out lighting, air-conditioning and ventilation assessments on selected rooms in the factory, as means of proper energy conservation. Energy management measures were deployed by suggestion of more efficient equipment. Major equipment found includes automatic filling machine, pumps, steam generator, conveyor etc. The total electrical energy consumption of the factory was 9,280.899 kWh, of which equipment such as pumps took 20% (highest energy consumption). Areas of major energy consumption include pet blowing room, production room 1, production room 2 and the borehole area. While the current cooling capacities of most rooms in the factory were above the cooling requirement of each room, the luminosity requirement of selected rooms in the factory is surpassed by the current luminosity level found. Energy management measures were found to reduce the energy consumption of the factory by 17%, saving a sum of 87,906.207 naira of electrical energy cost monthly. In conclusion, the energy audit carried out on the University of Ibadan water factory was found useful in reducing energy waste and associated costs within the water factory. This approach can be applied in industries for electricity cost reduction, hence, production cost.","PeriodicalId":12001,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Engineering and Technology Research","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87627148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unit weight and elastic modulus of concrete utilizing volcanic stone waste (VSW) as coarse aggregate have been studied at 28 days of hydration. The origin of VSW was the residual of volcanic stone processing for making the handmade ornaments of traditional Balinese buildings. Three types of concrete mixture compositions were made by varying the proportion of cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate in concrete. Each mixture composition stirred using four variations of water/cement (w/c) ratio. For each variation in w/c, five cylindrical specimens with a diameter of 150 mm and a height of 300 mm were made to measure the unit weight and modulus of elasticity of concrete specimens after 28 days of hydration. The result shows that the unit weight and the elastic modulus of concrete decrease with increasing w/c at fixed proportions of cement and aggregates and increase with increasing proportion of aggregates at fixed w/c. The increase in elastic modulus with an increase in the a/c ratio for a fixed w/c ratio is more noticeable for a w/c ratio of more than 0.6. Moreover, the elastic modulus increases correspondingly with an increase in unit weight for a given a/c ratio.
研究了以火山石废料为粗集料的混凝土在水化28 d时的单位重量和弹性模量。VSW的起源是用于制作传统巴厘岛建筑手工装饰品的火山石加工的残留物。通过改变混凝土中水泥、细骨料和粗骨料的比例,配制出三种类型的混凝土配合比。每种混合成分使用四种不同的水灰比(w/c)搅拌。针对每一w/c变化,制作5个直径为150 mm、高度为300 mm的圆柱形试件,测量水化28天后混凝土试件的单位重量和弹性模量。结果表明:在水泥与骨料配比固定的情况下,混凝土的单位重量和弹性模量随水泥浆比的增大而减小,随骨料配比的增大而增大;当w/c比大于0.6时,弹性模量随a/c比的增加而增加。此外,弹性模量随单位重量的增加而相应增加,对于给定的a/c比。
