Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) Air and Water Based Solar Collectors Suitable for Building Integrated ApplicationsAdnan Ibrahim, Goh Li Jin, Roonak Daghigh et al.Problem statement: Experiments have been conducted to investigate the effect of mass flow rates on the electrical, thermal and combined of photovoltaic thermal efficiencies of the hybrid collectors. Approach: Two photovoltaic thermal solar collectors were designed and fabricated. The first collector, known as spiral flow absorber collector, designed to generate hot water and electricity. The second collector, known as single … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of Double Pass Photovoltaic Thermal Air Collector with FinsEbrahim M. Ali Alfegi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Yusof Hj Othman, Baharudin Bin YatimProblem statement: The efficiency of photovoltaic cells is generally temperature dependent (efficiency decrease when the temperature of the photovoltaic cells increase). This problem can be solved by cooling the solar cells during operation and operated at low temperature. Approach: This study presented a numerical model of double pass Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) solar air collector with fins attached to the back … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,011 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Study on the Performance Characteristics of Hydrogen Fueled Port Injection Internal Combustion EngineRosli A. Bakar, Mohammed K. Mohammed, M. M. RahmanThis study was focused on the engine performance of single cylinder hydrogen fueled port injection internal combustion engine. GT-Power was utilized to develop the model for port injection engine. One dimensional gas dynamics was represented the flow and heat transfer in the components of the engine model. The governing equations were introduced first, followed by the performance parameters and model … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Temperature Convective Drying of a Packed Bed with Humid Air at Different HumiditiesJ. Sghaier, S. Messai, D. Lecomte, A. BelghithProblem statement: Drying a packed bed of porous particle at high temperature with varying humidity of hot air is an attractive process. Many researches on experimental and simulation on a fixed bed drying at low and average temperature are proposed. Few studies showed drying at high temperature with humid air or using superheated steam. The latest is compared to dry … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,029 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Investigation of Hyperbolic Equations via He's MethodsD.D. Ganji, M. Amini, A. KolahdoozPerturbation methods depend on a small parameter which is difficult to be found for real-life nonlinear problems. To overcome this shortcoming, two new but powerful analytical methods were introduced to solve nonlinear heat transfer problems in this Letter, one is He's Variational Iteration Method (VIM) and the other is the Homotopy-Perturbation Method (HPM). Nonlinear hyperbolic equations were used as examples … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Comparison of Thermal Stratification due Natural Convection in Densified LOX, LN2 TanksSeyed Ali Jazayeri, Ehsan Molla Hasanzadeh KhoeiThe growth of natural circulation and thermal stratification inside LOX, LN2 storage tanks due to heat transfer from surroundings is investigated using a non-equilibrium, two-domain, mathematical model. The two-dimensional model is considered for the liquid domain in two cases and a lumped, thermodynamic model is utilized for vapor domain. The vapor is assumed to behave like an ideal gas. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Gas Velocity and Temperature on Nitric Oxide Conversion in Simulated Catalytic ConverterSathaporn ChuepengProblem statement: Gaseous emissions from gasoline engine such as carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxides were usually reduced in three-way catalytic converter simultaneously around theoretical fuel and air combustion. Engine speed and load and other parameters were varied over a wide range of operating conditions, resulting in different exhaust gas composition and condition intake into catalytic converter. This work … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 27 Jun 2012 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical and Genetic Responses of Fungi to the Toxic Effect of Synthetic and Natural FungicidesMarÍa-Elena Báez-Flores, Rosalba Troncoso-Rojas, Martin-Ernesto Tiznado-HernándezThe objective of the present review is to analyze the molecular basis of fungicide resistance mechanism to both synthetic fungicides and the natural fungicides isothiocyanates. The review is focused mainly on Alternaria sp., but whenever available, similar studies in other fungi have been included. Fungal resistant strains to dicarboximide and phenylpyrrole fungicides have been found to contain mutations in one … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Temperature Trend In Contaminated Tidal Flat In The Ariake Sea, JapanM. A. Moqsud, Shigenori Hayashi, y. j. Du, Daisuke suetsuguThermal environment of the tidal flat is one of the major parts of the contaminated geo-environment of the Ariake Sea. The activities of marine ecosystem in tidal flats depend strongly on the thermal environment. In order to get a clear idea about the thermal environment of the tidal flats of the Ariake Sea, two study areas, Iida and Higashiyoka tidal … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
