Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimental and Skeletal Kinetic Model Study of Compressed Natural Gas Fueled Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition EngineP. M. Diaz, B. Durga Prasad, D.S. Manoj Abraham, K. PalaniKumarProblem statement: In homogeneous charge compression ignition engines fuel oxidation chemistry determines the auto-ignition timing, heat release, reaction intermediates and the ultimate products of combustion. To shorten development time and to understand combustion processes, the use of simulation is increasing. Approach: A model that correctly simulates fuel oxidation at these conditions would be a useful design tool. Detailed models of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 22 Mar 2012 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFabrication and Experimental Investigation of PCM Capsules Integrated in Solar Air HeaterMahmud M. Alkilani, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Sohif MatProblem statement: Thermal Energy Storage (TES) process can reduce the time or rate mismatch between energy supply and energy demand. Organic latent heat materials are suitable to use as storage medium, however, the low thermal conductivity of these materials slow the thermal response during charging and discharging processes. Approach: A solar air heater integrated with (PCM) has been designed, fabricated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 11 Jan 2012 · 7,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimental Study of Load Sharing in Roller-Bearing Contact by Caustics and PhotoelasticityKonstandinos G. Raptis, George A. Papadopoulos, Theodore N. Costopoulos, Andonios D. TsolakisProblem statement: In this study a comprehensive methodology for calculating load sharing in Roller-bearing contact was presented based on the experimental stress-optical method of caustics and Photoelasticity. Approach: The theoretical equations describing the geometry of transmitted caustic in relation to the length of the contact zone were derived and a simple mathematical set of equations correlating the maximum diameter of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,397 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimental Study of Electromagnetic Environment in the Vicinity of High Voltage LinesWafa Tourab, Abdesselam Babouri, Mohamed NemamchaProblem statement: Several studies have investigated the impact of electromagnetic field generated by high voltage power lines on environment. The evaluation of electric and magnetic field quantities are of paramount interest in the characterization of electromagnetic environment of the proposed line. The purpose of this study was to analyze the behavior of electromagnetic fields generated by power lines in an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2011 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalytical and Experimental Studies on the Thermal Efficiency of the Double-Pass Solar Air Collector with Finned AbsorberAhmad Fudholi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Hafidz Ruslan et al.Problem statement: The design of suitable air collectors is one of the most important factors controlling the economics of the solar drying. Air type collectors have two inherent disadvantages: Low thermal capacity of air and low absorber to air heat transfer coefficient. Different modifications are suggested and applied to improve the heat transfer coefficient between the absorber plate and air. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 7,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhysiological Study on the Effect of Acalypha wilkesiana Leaves Extract on Streptozotocin-Induced Experimental Diabetes in Male MiceAtef M. Al-AttarProblem statement: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that causes serious health complications and it is now one of the most common non-communicable diseases globally. It is the fourth or fifth leading cause of death in most high-income countries and there is substantial evidence that it is epidemic in many economically developing and newly industrialized nations. Recently, there has been … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 74,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHepatotoxicity Due to Histamine Trifluoro-Methyl Toluidide, Amthamine, R-(-)-α-Methyl Histamine and Clobenpropit (H1R-H4R-Agonists, Respectively) in Rabbit Experimental ModelTrivendra Tripathi, Aijaz Ahmed Khan, Mohammad Shahid et al.Problem statement: Since in vivo studies looking for toxicological impact of histamine receptors-agonists in experimental models are fragmentary, the present study was designed to delineate the histopathological and biochemical changes in livers of rabbits treated with histamine receptors (H1R-H4R)-agonists. Approach: The cohort comprised of six groups (Group I control and Group II-VI treated) containing five rabbits each. Control-group received vehicle … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Linear Switched Reluctance Machine: Analysis and Experimental VerificationN. C. Lenin, R. ArumugamThe important problems to be solved in Linear Switched Reluctance Machines (LSRMs) are: (1) to design the shape and size of poles in stator and translator cores; (2) to optimize their geometrical configuration. A novel stator geometry for LSRMs that improved the force profile was presented in this study. In the new geometry, pole shoes were affixed on the stator … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
