Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplification of Sun Tracking Mode to Gain High Concentration Solar EnergyOmar Aliman, Ismail Daut, Muzamir Isa, Mohd Rafi AdzmanPower conversion from solar thermal energy to electrical energy is still very cost-intensive. Serious effort has to be given in the development of the concentrator or heliostat structure expenditure which contributing the most expensive component in a central receiver solar power plant. With current development to find alternatives and lower down the capital, a new mode of sun tracking has … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Pre-processing of USF and MIAS Mammogram ImagesAyman A. AbuBaker, R. S. Qahwaji, Musbah J. Aqel et al.High quality mammogram images are high resolution and large size images. Processing these images require high computational capabilities. The transmission of these images over the net is sometimes critical especially if the diagnosis of remote radiologists is required. In this paper, a pre-processing technique for reducing the size and enhancing the quality of USF and MIAS mammogram images is introduced. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe 2D Eulerian Approach of Entrained Flow and Temperature in a Biomass Stratified Downdraft GasifierA. Rogel, Jasni AguillónThis paper describes a “1-D+2-D” numerical model used to simulate the gasification of pine wood pellets in a stratified downdraft gasifier whereby Eulerian conservation equations are solved for particle and gas phase components, velocities and specific enthalpies. The model takes into account the biomass particle process such as heating up, drying, primary pyrolysis of biomass, secondary pyrolysis of tar, homogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Residual Oils Recovered from Spent Bleaching Earth: Their Characteristics and ApplicationsLoh Soh Kheang, Cheng Sit Foon, Choo Yuen May, Ma Ah NganThis study described the extraction of residual oils of spent bleaching earth (SBE) from palm oil refining industry, the properties and applications of residual oils obtained there from. Residual oils of SBE (acid-activated, WAC and neutral, NC) were recovered via solvent and supercritical-fluid (SC-CO2) extraction. The yields of residual oils recovered from WAC were higher than those from NC using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 9,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment on Biocides Bioaccumulation in Mullet Liza klunzingeri in Kuwaiti Waters, off the Arabian GulfA.H. Bu-Olayan, B. V. ThomasBiocides, such as formaldehyde (HCHO), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) that are commonly used in thermal, desalination and power plants and industries were tested on the commercially important mullet fish, Liza klunzingeri to determine the environmental contamination in the stressed ecosystem of Kuwait Bay sites. Multi-factor Probit analysis toxicity tests (96 h) on L. klunzingeri showed the lowest observed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Current Sensor for IDDQ Testing of CMOS ICMohd Liakot Ali, Nurul Huda KhamisThis study presents the design of an off-chip current sensor for IDDQ testing of CMOS (Complementary Metal-oxide Semiconductor) ICs (integrated circuit). It provides a linear voltage signal of IDDQ current with a conversion factor of 5 mV/μA without any amplification. A voltage-controlled switch is used to bypass the transient current peaks. It has also been shown that the sensor is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Chlorophyll-an in a Small Reservoir by Landsat 7 ImageryMaryam Ghashghaie, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid EslamianChlorophyll-a (chla) is a source of water pollution. Monitoring the quality of water in reservoirs is necessary to take any action for protecting the water quality. Traditional methods of sampling are usually costly and time consuming. Also they need skillful labors and some areas are out of reach or sampling at those areas is dangerous. Remote sensing technology could solve … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Apr 2018 · 8,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust and Efficient Controller to Design a Standalone Source Supplied DC and AC Load Powered by Photovoltaic GeneratorHassan AbouobaidaThe present work describes the analysis, modeling and control of a cascade DC-DC and DC-AC power conditioning stage to control a output voltage to supply a DC and AC load systems. To maximize energy extracted from PV generator and control output voltage a RCC MPPT and backstepping controller are designed. The stability of the control algorithm is demonstrated by means … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 26 Oct 2016 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLIPASE-CATALYZED TRANSESTERIFICATION OF PALM KERNEL OIL WITH DIALKYLCARBONATESTjahjono Herawan, M. Rüsch Gen. KlaasLipase-catalyzed transesterifications-especially in a solvent-free medium-are important for industrial applications because such systems would have an enormous advantage by avoiding the problem of separation, toxicity and flammability of organic solvents. However, the organic solvent-free alcoholysis, especially methanolysis, does not give high conversions. The same problem also occurs when ethyl or methyl acetate are used as acyl acceptors. The main problems … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 6 May 2014 · 6,793 accessesView PDFCite
