The use of Flat Solar Collectors for the generation of Domestic Hot Water (DHW), facilitates access to this resource in an efficient, economical and sustainable way. The Sustainable Development Goals proposed by the UN, referring specifically to sustainable water management and access to renewable energy, are the main motivation for this work, since the former is an essential vital resource and its access reduces the inequality index, in developing countries such as Colombia, while the use of solar thermal energy reduces the environmental impact of the water heating process, thus reducing the consumption of electrical energy in the residential sector. Therefore, this work proposes to estimate DHW profiles through a spreadsheet that models the DHW flow thermodynamically for a whole year, making it possible to evaluate the energy performance of a Solar Collector available in the Colombian market and that is used in four types of dwellings located in the city of Bogotá. The simulation results present the DHW consumption profiles in kg/h per year, with DHW temperatures of up to 21°C, for a total transmitted irradiance of the order of 1100 W/m^2, which produces thermal energy close to 1kW. This comparative analysis allows us to review the technical and economic feasibility of solar collectors installed in single-family homes and with a DHW consumption profile close to the Colombian socio-economic reality

Currently, astronomy outreach in Chile is in good health. There is atleast a dozen research groups belonging to universities, and most ofthem also include a specific area for Education and Public Outreach(EPO), using resources to communicate astronomy to the public. Amateur astronomy, astrotourism and astronomy clubs at schools are alsoimportant actors in astronomy outreach, as well as recent initiativesfrom the government recognizing the dark skies as our natural heritage, and promoting science as a useful tool for knowledge and development. This presentation summarizes some of these initiatives,focusing on creating new educative materials establishing alliances,and finally discussing how these efforts could consolidate the leadership of Chile in astronomy education, and how we could create newopportunities in South America on this topic.

In Mexico, there are some regions where society does not know the conditions of air quality, and in some others this information is not used or analyzed. Hence is important the study of air quality evolution to generate strategies that allow to mitigate adverse effects on population. In this research we analyze the trend of Criteria Air Pollutants (PM10 and O3 and CO), considering the distribution of good, regular and bad days for air quality, as well as the trend of hourly, daily, monthly and annual concentrations in the city of Villahermosa, Tabasco between 2011-2017, with information provided by the State government, in order to design an effective communication mechanism. We obtained air quality indicators based on the official Mexican regulation and the temporal behavior of the pollutants. Additionally, we trained artificial neural network models for the prediction of air pollutant concentration. Finally, we propose the design of a web portal for the communication of air quality. According to the weekly behavior, is shown that we are exposed daily to potential health hazards by any of the air pollutants, also that the second trimester of each year shows the worst conditions and that the pollutants that have a greater contribution to air pollution in the city are CO, PM10 andO3. Likewise, the tendencies of PM10 andO3 indicate a slow decrease of -0.5 ug/m3-year, -0.0004 ppm-year respectively, which requires a redefinition of government strategies that may potentiate their decrease. In this sense, the web portal is proposed under two main approaches: First, with the purpose of communication, aimed to the society so it can take preventive measures on their exposure to high contamination levels. The second approach is aimed to the academic community and government authorities, with graphic information on the criteria air pollutants’ tendencies, providing analytical elements for structuring environmental policies.
引用方式:Magaña E. et al.,空气质量趋势和在塔巴斯科的大气监测网络的web应用程序的建议,墨西哥。摘要:空气污染是一个日益受到关注的问题,因为它对人们的健康和环境构成了风险。在墨西哥,有些地区的社会不知道空气质量的状况,而在其他一些地区,这些信息没有被使用或分析。因此,对空气质量演变的研究对于制定能够减轻对人口不利影响的策略非常重要。在这项研究中,我们分析了标准空气污染物(PM10和O3和CO)的趋势,考虑到空气质量好的、正常的和坏的日子分布,以及每小时、每天、每月和每年的浓度趋势,塔巴斯科州比利亚埃尔莫萨市2011-2017年期间,州政府提供的信息,以设计一个有效的沟通机制。我们根据墨西哥官方规定和污染物的时间行为获得了空气质量指标。此外,我们训练了人工神经网络模型来预测空气污染物浓度。最后,我们提出了一个空气质量交流的门户网站的设计。根据每周的行为,我们每天都暴露在任何一种空气污染物的潜在健康危害中,而且每年的第二个三个月的情况最糟糕,对城市空气污染贡献较大的污染物是CO, PM10和do3。同样,PM10和do3的趋势分别显示缓慢下降,分别为-0.5 ug/m3-年和-0.0004 ppm-年,这需要政府重新定义可能促进其下降的策略。从这个意义上说,门户网站的提出主要有两种途径:第一,以沟通为目的,针对社会,使其能够对暴露于高污染水平的社会采取预防措施。第二种方法针对学术界和政府当局,提供关于空气污染物趋势标准的图形信息,为制定环境政策提供分析要素。

The present research study presents the results of the aerodynamic analysis of a USB AERO aircraft using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in operational conditions of cruise flight at an angle of attack of 3.5 degrees. The ANSYS FLUENT computational tool was used, with which the lift, drag and longitudinal momentum coefficients were determined. Additionally, the aircraft was analyzed at different angles of attack in order to determine aerodynamic characteristics such as the highest lift coefficient and the loss angle, in addition to establishing the maximum aerodynamic efficiency.

Ontological representations in different domains of reality enable the creation of conceptual relationships that can be coded to reuse and share knowledge. The present article proposes a semantic model representation in Colombian computer law through the methodological process of Methontology. This proposal is the first approximation of a legal semantic model in Colombia that allows structuring searches founded on inferences to obtain information with a high degree of relevance for lawful expert users. The queries of the proposed model are made by semantic content, contrasting to the current legal information search engines which execute queries by textual coincidence.
