Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Clothing Insulation for Thermal Comfort: A Numerical Study using Bio-Heat Transfer ModelKabita Luitel, Dil Bahadur Gurung, Harihar Khanal, Kedar Nath UpretyClothing plays a major role in protecting the human body from cold and hot environment by working as an insulator. The physical factors such as conduction, convection, radiation, evaporation and the physiological factors such as blood flow and metabolism within the body together with clothing system help to maintain human thermal comfort and the human thermoregulatory system. On the other … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2020 · 8,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLength Measurement of Long Gauge Blocks by InterferometerKanokporn Kohmun, Pichet Limsuwan, Monludee Ranusawud, Prathan BuranasiriA gauge block interferometer with a vacuum chamber was designed and constructed for the measurement of gauge block lengths between 10 to 1,000 mm. In the chamber, four gauge blocks under the length measurement can be mounted on the measuring table. Furthermore, the length of all four gauge blocks can be measured continuously in one measurement. In this study, four … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 26 Sep 2020 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Analysis on the Running of CI Engine with Pongamia Oil-Diesel as Fuel for Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) TechniqueAbdullah Al-Ghafis, M Shameer BashaPresent days, I.C engines are the fundamental parts of shipping and automatic farming system, etc. Hence there is an exponentially up-surge in utilization of Diesel and gasoline products. At the same time Diesel is an exhaustive source of energy and recent pitch in Diesel prices have focused interest in bio-fuels and also it has resulted that biodiesel-oiled engines produce comparatively … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 7 Aug 2020 · 6,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Winter Hardiness Formation in Winter Wheat PlantsDaria Blyshchyk, Anatoliy Polevoy, Pavel FeoktistovA dynamic model, which describes the growth processes, plant development and the passing of the two phases of the autumn hardening under the influence of agrometeorological conditions in autumn, was developed. The model illustrates effects of intensity of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), sunlight levels, air temperature and soil moisture on the increment of reserves of photosynthesis products and soluble carbohydrates … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2020 · 7,207 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Experimental Investigation of a Novel Solar Collector with a W-Shape CoverEdoun Marcel, Djimasra Bonheur, Kuitche Alexis, Zeghmati BelkacemIn the current study, we developed and tested a new type of solar collector named W-shape solar collector. It is a solar collector with single air pass between the transparent cover and the absorber. The cover has double glass whereby the upper glass is flat and the lower glass is w-shape. The absorber is also W-shape. This combination gave rise … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 19 Sep 2019 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Drying Methods on Coal Liquefaction ConversionMehran HeydariThe sample coal used in this work was lignite containing 25% of moisture and 19% of ash from Canada. Drying of lignite coal had considerable influence on the coal liquefaction conversion. Vacuum dried and nitrogen dried samples provided higher conversion than air dried samples. The air drying showed nearly lower conversion, which probably as a result of oxidation. Air Drying … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2019 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatus of Air Quality with Potential Linkage to the Metrological Conditions in Three Major Cities of PakistanNaima Hamid, Muhammad Junaid, Syeda Maria Ali et al.Environmental pollution being fatal for all living organisms is growing adversely due to excessive industrialization and urbanization. Vehicular emissions have aggravated the situation and pose detrimental effects on human health. In this study, the trend of ambient air quality was analyzed in the three metropolitan cities of Pakistan, including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad for a period of three years (2008-2010). … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 11 Mar 2019 · 8,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChilled Water VAV System Optimization and Modeling Using Artificial Neural NetworksRand Talib, Nabil Nassif, Maya Arida, Taher Abu-LebdehIn 2016, It was estimated that about 40% of total U.S. energy consumption was consumed by the residential and commercial sectors. According to EIA, in 2009, the energy consumption in U.S. homes was 48% which was down from 58% in 1993 (Residential Energy Consumption Survey (RECS). The development of building energy savings methods and models becomes apparently more necessary for … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2019 · 6,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping an Integrated Method for Optimal Design of Chilled Water Plants in HVAC SystemsNabil Nassif, Nihal Al Raees, Fouad Al Rifaie, Taher Abu-LebdehBuildings account for a large portion of energy use in the US. Many those buildings have equipped with central plants to produce chilled water supplied to central air handling units. The chilled water plant design can have a significant impact on building energy uses and costs. In this paper, an integrated method for optimal design of chilled water plants is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2019 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevention of Heat Stress in Lactating CowsVladimir Zaitsev, Vasily Korotkiy, Nadezhda Bogolyubova et al.In summer, when the air temperature rises, dairy cattle are very susceptible to heat stress, which results in a significant decline in productivity. The goal of the study is to assess how a Coniferous Energy Supplement (CES) made from raw materials derived from forestry waste affects lactating cows' ruminal digestion, milk production, and quality in extreme temperatures. Two sets of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 19 Dec 2023 · 5,113 accessesView PDFCite
