Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThermal Effusivity Measurement of Virgin Coconut Oil-Methanol Mixtures using Photoacoustic TechniqueFiras Kamel Mohamad Al-asfoor, W. Mahmood Mat Yunus, Azmi Zakaria et al.Thermal effusivity of virgin coconut oil-methanol mixtures were measured using open photoacoustic cell technique. The samples were prepared by simply mixing virgin coconut oil and methanol using similar procedure applied for preparation of biodisel. Thermal effusivity of the sample was obtained by fitting the experimental data of photoacoustic amplitude signal to the expression of photoacoustic signal as a function of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,596 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRefractive Index and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra of Virgin Coconut Oil and Virgin Olive OilW. Mahmood Mat Yunus, Yap Wing Fen, Lim Mei YeeThis study presents the refractive index and FTIR spectra of virgin coconut oil and virgin olive oil that have been measured in the wavelength range from 491.0-667.8 nm. The measurement of refractive index was carried out using a minimum deviation method while the IR transmission ranging from 600-4000 cm-1 was measured using FTIR spectrometer respectively. The measurements were done at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 13,159 accessesView PDF Cite
