Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCFD-PBE Modelling and Simulation of Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cellulose in a Stirred TankNorazaliza Mohd Jamil, Qi WangRenewable energy or biofuel from lignocellulosic biomass is an alternative way to replace the depleting fossil fuels. The production cost can be reduced by increasing the concentration of biomass particles. However, lignocellulosic biomass is a suspension of natural fibres and processing at high solid concentration is a challenging task because it will affect the mixing quality between the enzyme and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 25 Oct 2016 · 7,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTuning of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller using Multi-Objective Non Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization Applied to pH Control in Continuous Stirred Tank ReactorC. Agees Kumar, N. Kesavan NairProblem statement: Most of the control engineering problems are characterized by several, contradicting, conflicting objectives, which have to be satisfied simultaneously. Two widely used methods for finding the optimal solution to such problems are aggregating to a single criterion and using Pareto-optimal solutions. Approach: Non-Dominated Sorting Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (NSPSO) based approach is used in the design of multiobjective … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 19 Jul 2011 · 6,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDYNAMIC MODELING AND GAIN SCHEDULING CONTROL OF A CHIILLED WATER COOLING SYSTEMJun Liu, M. ZaheeruddinA dynamic model of a Chilled Water (ChW) cooling system with a stratified ChW tank was developed. A PI-based Gain Scheduling (GS) control strategy was designed to improve thermal performance of the chiller system. Five different operation strategies were simulated and the energy consumption and cost of operating the system under full load and partial load conditions were compared. The … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 15 Oct 2014 · 7,010 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimum Setting of Controller Using Soft Computing Techniques for a Chemical SystemG. Glandevadhas, S. Pushpakumar, S.V. Muruga PrasadProblem statement: The aim of this study is to present an intelligent tuning technique for PID controller that are simple and still result in good closed loop behavior. The idea is to start with a tuned conventional PID controller, replace it with an equivalent intelligent controllers like Fuzzy, ANN, Genetic and PSO techniques implies fine tuned nonlinear PID controller which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 6 Oct 2011 · 7,496 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeterogeneous Modeling, Identification and Simulation of Activated Sludge ProcessesIbrahim H. Mustafa, G. Ibrahim, Ali Elkamel, A. H. ElahwanyProblem statement: The activated sludge system is a complex dynamic process and must account for a large number of reactions between large numbers of components. There is necessity for simulation models which describe the dynamic behavior of the activated sludge process. The application of the models in most treatment plants is limited due to lack of appropriate data acquisition and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSustainability of Rainwater Harvesting Systems in Multistorey Residential BuildingsA. Rahman, J. Dbais, M. ImteazProblem statement: The urban water supply systems in Australian large cities, which generally depend on large surface water reservoirs, are highly stressed due to rapid urban growth and severe drought conditions during the current decade. To ensure the long term sustainability of urban water supply, various alternative water sources including rainwater tanks, grey water, wastewater and desalination plants are being … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 14,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign of Economical Equipment for Water and Fuel Level Detection in JordanAli M. OthmanBoth a cold and hot water supplies in Jordan are provided by indirect systems and so is the fuel supply for central heating, by using storage tanks placed over the buildings roofs. This requires climbing to the roofs for measuring the level of fluid in these tanks. This method is primitive, impractical and tedious. A simple reliable easing system is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite

Approach: In the present experimental work a computerized Single cylinder Diesel engine with data acquisition system was used to study the effects of oxygen enriched air intake on Exhaust emissions. Engine test has been carried out in the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 7,465 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIn vitro Growth and Inhibition Studies of Monosodium Urate Monohydrate Crystals by Different Herbal ExtractsBharat B. Parekh, Sonal R. Vasant, Kashmira P. Tank et al.Problem statement: A large number of people in the world have been suffering from gout for centuries. Gout is the term given to a metabolic condition in which the signs and symptoms results from the deposition of crystals of Monosodium Urate Monohydrate (MSUM) in various connective tissues. Approach: It was quite difficult to grow good quality large MSUM crystals because … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 10,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesQuickest Multi-Commodity Flow Over Time with Partial Lane ReversalsTanka Nath Dhamala, Shiva Prakash Gupta, Durga Prasad Khanal, Urmila PyakurelRouting of more than one different commodity from specific origin nodes to the corresponding destination nodes through the arcs of an underlying network respecting the capacity constraints is one of the main problems in operational research. Among them, the quickest multi-commodity flow problem concerns with minimization of time taken to complete this process. The general multi-commodity and quickest multi-commodity flow … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 2 Oct 2020 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
