Solar energy is the most suitable among all renewable energy options for competing with fossil fuels in desalination due to its ability to utilize both heat and power for the process. In this study, the Parabolic Trough Solar Collector (PTSC) for powering a Single Stage Flash (SSF) desalination unit was proposed for Basrah city climate, Iraq. The desalination system comprises two directly coupled sub-systems: the PTSC and the SSF desalination unit. The preheated feed brine water coming from condenser was used as a Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) for PTSC, which gets heated to a desired temperature referred to as the Top Brine Temperature (TBT). The numerical simulations were performed via EBSILON professional 16.02 (2022) software. The effects of TBT, mass flowrate of feed brine water to get the desired TBT, solar collector area, and vacuum pressure inside flash chamber on the performance of the desalination system was studied. A major finding of the current study can be summarized as follows: The collector efficiency is enhanced eventually as TBT increases. The maximum values of distillate water in June are around 5.5, 4.56, 3.69, 2.75 and 1.85 kg/h for 12.408, 10.434, 8.3472, 6.26, and 4.1736 m² collector area respectively, when TBT 107 °C and vacuum pressure 40 kPa. For 1.598 m² collector area, the total distillate in the 1st of June amounted to 7.9 kg, with an average production rate of around 0.7 kg/h. The solar SSF system's productivity per solar collector unit area at 20 kPa, 15 kPa, and 10 kPa vacuum pressures was 4.7 kg/day/m², 5.3 kg/day/m², and 6.25 kg/day/m², respectively. The average Performance Ratio (PR) values are determined to be 0.694, 0.577, and 0.491 for 10 kPa, 15 kPa, and 20 kPa, respectively. These results are very acceptable when compared with an existing literature.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the mechanical characteristics and energy absorption capabilities of both closed-cell pure Aluminum foam and closed-cell A356 foam. A portion of the lightweight pure foam samples (17.12, 17.77 and 15.27 g) is produced through casting of raw material (99.9 % pure aluminum) using Titanium Hydride (TiH2) as a foaming agent, which lead to (7.5, 7 and 8) Pores Per Inches (PPI); and samples of A356 foam (38.24, 38.18 and 35.88 g) is produced through casting of A356 alloyed material with same procedure which lead to (11, 10 and 12) PPI. In order to determine the maximum compressive strength, strength-to-weight ratio, energy absorption density, complementary energy, and energy absorption efficiency, a uniaxial compression test is conducted. The results indicate that compression of pure foam structure smashed in a ductile manner and shows a lamellar eutectic structure while A365 foams under compression are crashed with brittle character with complex phases distribution inside (polyhedral and globular morphologies), A noticeable enhancement is observed in the mechanical characteristics of the A356 foam. The maximum compressive strength and specific energy absorption of alloyed foam are increased by a factor nearly of 4 and 2 respectively for all tested samples. Also, the result shows a significant decreasing in compressive strength with increasing of PPI for both pure and alloyed foam. The notable enhancements in the properties of alloyed closed cell foam render these advanced materials a viable option for high-strength applications.

Lithium-ion batteries' physical properties classify them as one of the most important sources of clean energy that overcome the need for fuel usage. The rated operating temperature and its uniformity are of the main demands of Lithium-ion batteries. In this survey, several types of studies have been reviewed with the aim of understanding the thermal management systems used to control the temperature of lithium-ion batteries and their uniformity in the battery pack. They are represented by active and passive systems, as well as the hybrid system, which integrates each of the two mentioned systems into a system to obtain the best thermal performance. Active cooling systems were classified due to the type pf coolant used to air and liquid system, meanwhile passive system classified to PCM and heat pipe system. The survey reveals that the air-cooling of lithium-ion battery pack is better than the use of liquids. About 74% of the reviewed works prefer the use of active strategies. The working temperature under normal conditions should be within -20 to 60 °C, meanwhile the optimum range is 15 to 35 °C. The maximum temperature difference between batteries in the pack is preferred to be 5 °C or less.

In this paper, a theoretical study of the conventional solar-still system integrated via the design of heat recovery of air exhausted from the air conditioner condenser employing heat exchangers (WHRUs) was conducted. This study aims to improve desalination performance by compensating for the non-existence of sunlight during the night. A comparison was made between the desalination performance in the event of exposure to solar radiation and its performance in the case of exposure to the system (WHRUs). It was found that the (WHRUs) system has a minimal impact on the production of the conventional desalination rig during the night period, as the highest cumulative productivity in the presence of the (WHRUS) reached (2.15 kg) in August. In contrast, the productivity dependent on solar radiation was (4.58 kg) for the same month, with the most significant percentage of improvement reaching (31.91 %).

Thermal steam power plants represent the most important and dependable type for supplying the base load of electricity around the world. The thermos-economic analysis is an important tool for improving the performance of thermal steam power plants. In the present study, a thermo-economic analysis of a simple steam power plant for different boiler pressure was performed. The analysis comprises the energy, exergy, entropy, economics, and exergy-economic of a simple cycle steam power plant for different boiler pressure. The analysis was performed for a simple steam power plant with the constant output power of 10 MW and the boiler pressure is varied from 10 bar to 100 bar by a step of 10 bar. For each boiler pressure and constant output power, firstly, the fuel mass flow rate, steam flow rate, energy and exergy efficiency, and cost of electricity were calculated. Secondly, entropy generation, exergy destruction, and exergy efficiency for each component were calculated. Finally, exergy destruction economics for each component of the plant was performed. The results reveal that increasing the boiler pressure from (10 to 100 bar) for constant output power reduces the cost of electricity from (0.135 to 0.1025 $/kWh) due to a decrease in the fuel mass flow rate and an improvement in the thermal cycle and exergy efficiency. Also, when the boiler pressure increases, the exergy destruction for the pump increases, the exergy destruction for the boiler decreases, the exergy destruction for the turbine increases, and the exergy destruction for the condenser decrease.

This numerical study was conducted to simulate and analyze the pushout test for the new shear connector in a new steel-concrete composite system. In this system, the shear stirrups of the reinforced concrete beam are used as shear connectors when passed through holes drilled in the web of inverted steel T-section. The numerical analysis was performed by creating a three-dimensional finite element model using the finite element program ANSYS 21 student version to simulate the behavior of the new innovative shear connectors. The pushout specimens analyzed in this study have been tested experimentally by the same researchers earlier. A total of fifty-six push-out specimens were modeled and analyzed to investigate the effect of many parameters on the shear strength and slip capacity of the shear connector. The parameters studied in this investigation were the specimen dimensions (length and width), the diameter of stirrups (shear connector), the number of connectors per specimen, concrete strength, size of T-section, and shape of the specimen. The finite element analysis using ANSYS gave a good prediction of the effect of studied parameters on connector strength, the failure modes, the form and intensity of deformations in the model, and the load-slip response. The maximum difference in connector strength which was observed between the numerical and experimental results was 15 %.

The shear panels of plate girder made from corrugated in the web is investigated in this research. A corrugated web beam of plate is attached in the shear zone of the web as part of an experimental and theoretical investigation into plate girders. In experiments, seven plate girder specimens were tested under two points of load. Six of them were made of different shape of corrugated plate in the web, the last specimen was tested without corrugation as a reference specimen called control. In this study investigated the effected of (corrugation plate, thickness of corrugation with number layers of corrugated and the shape of corrugated plate) on (buckling and ultimate loads also on lateral and vertical deflection) and compared with reference specimen, these specimens have the same dimensions, the main variable was the thickness of the corrugated plate in the web (0.5, 1, and 2) mm, the depth was constant (300 mm). According to results of the experiment, the corrugated plates primarily increase the plate girder's stability. A corrugation of plate increases the buckling load and ultimate load significantly through the contribution of the corrugation to delay buckling of the plate girder in the web. In addition, it was found that increasing the plate-girder thickness leads to increased buckling and ultimate loads, because the stiffness will increase and delay the buckling. Also, the trapezoidal corrugation and the diagonal corrugate that placed perpendicular on the tension field action, give higher buckling and ultimate load than control beam. Ansys (version 17.0) computer program was used in this research represent the steel and nonlinear large structural shell was used to represent the corrugated web beam of the plate in the finite element analysis model.

The main effective parameter in this process were rotational speed, linear speed, tool shoulder radius, heat transfer coefficient and clamping percentage to study their influence on represent temperature, von misses stress and frictional stress distribution. Because of the difficulty to obtained the number of the simulation cases in order to get the most important results, Taguchi L27 orthogonal array was apply to reduce the total number of the simulation cases. Pure copper (t = 3.18 mm) material type was applied as work plate material. ANOVA statistical tool was utilized to achieved the optimization process after the simulation cases done. Percentage of contribution of each parameter can be obtained by ANOVA table and mean of S/N ratio plot. Validation process was achieved between the Current study and experiment work in the temperature distribution field with percentage of error 2.7 %. From optimization result It is found that the optimum condition in order to obtained good results for temperature was rotational speed of (450 rpm), linear speed (2.75 mm/s), tool shoulder radius (7 mm), heat transfer coefficient (300 w/m2 K), clamping distance percentage (40 %).
