Abstract

Aluminium metal matrix composites (Al-MMCs) are extensively used in various industrial sectors, including aerospace, automotive, construction, and electronics, owing to higher hardness, low density, higher fatigue and specific strength. Powder metallurgy is an effective method for manufacturing composite materials. Compared to pure metals and alloys, the mechanical characteristics of the SiC-reinforced MMCs are enhanced. The Al-MMC surface can undergo metallurgical changes due to the laser treatment, which can also strengthen the binding between the matrix material and the reinforcement particles. Therefore, the current work investigates the impact of SiC particle addition and laser surface treatment on the hardness and wear characteristics of aluminium metal matrix composite (Al-MMC). The Al-MMC is initially fabricated using a powder metallurgy process, and then the MMC is treated with a laser. Compared to the untreated MMC, the laser surface treatment increased the hardness by almost 12%. Additionally, the addition of SiC content by 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% in laser-treated Al-MMC resulted in increased hardness by 12%, 14%, 15%, and 16%, respectively, compared to untreated Al-MMC. Furthermore, the wear resistance improved as the reinforcement particles increased. The laser-treated samples exhibited lower wear than untreated ones due to the formation of a new layer on the treated surface, preventing the release of SiC particles. The surface treatment of MMC through the laser is a novel approach to fabricating wear-resistant Al-MMCs.

Abstract

The solidification cracking phenomenon restricts the use of fusion welding process to join aluminum and its alloy. Friction stir welding (FSW) process can be used in joining of aluminium alloys which is not or less susceptible to form welded voids, induced distortions, solidification cracking. In the present work an investigation of mechanical and microstructural changes after FSW is presented during the similar joining of AA2014 aluminium alloys. The influences of tool geometry during FSW is analysed and compared among the joint made by triangular, pedal and pentagonal pin. Based on the obtained mechanical properties of the joint metallurgical investigation is performed. Optical micrographs are used to reveal the phases present in the fusion zone. EBSD investigation of the selected sample is done to analyse the mis-orientaion angle and grain size etc. Pedal pin profile tool exhibit better mechanical properties in comparison to pentagonal pin and triangular pin. Obtained ultimate tensile strength and percentage elongation are 345MPa and 13.5 % respectively. Microhardness and impact energy are obtained as 125HV0.2 and 4.6 J of Fpedalsample. Obtained joint efficiency of Fpedal sample is 74%, which is higher among joint efficiency of Fpentagonal and Ftringular samples.

Abstract

roperties of metal matrix composites (MMCs) are affected by various process variables such as particle size of powders, the proportion of reinforcement material, mixing methods, sintering temperature, and duration. The significant drawback of stir casting is reinforcement segregation, which is too difficult to avoid. Hence, the powder metallurgy route is utilized to prepare Al-MMC. In the current work, aluminium-based MMC is fabricated with varying proportions of silicon carbide (SiC) as a reinforcement material. Mixing of powders is done using V-Blender and barrel mixer with three different mixing techniques and the mixing quality of prepared powders is assessed. A significant reduction of mixing time, i.e., more than 50%, is achieved through a novel barrel mixer as compared to a conventional V-blender. Two important properties, hardness and compressive strength of fabricated Al-MMC, are experimentally

Abstract

The failure prediction in the sheet metal forming process is carried out using the forming limit curve which is always specific to the material under consideration. The single point incremental forming is a novel process in which failure is predicted by the fracture forming line as the deformation involved in the process is in the local area due to gradual movement of the hemispherical ended tool. In this work, the forming limit curve is determined experimentally by forming the different geometries which experiences different strain conditions ranging from the plane strain to bi-axial mode of deformation. The experimental fracture forming line is validated by comparing it with the analytical models available in the literature.

Abstract

Micro-finned cylindrical surfaces find wide applications as enhanced surfaces for heat transfer in heat exchangers used in refrigeration and chemical process industries. In the present study, the experimental investigation of pool-boiling heat transfer of refrigerant R141b has been carried out at different pressures (between 100 and 175 kPa) and heat flux that ranges from 20 to 100 kW/m2 over a plain and micro-finned cylindrical surface. It was observed that with the micro-finned cylindrical surface, boiling performance was improved for all tested pressures. The average increase in the boiling heat-transfer coefficient is 7–35% in comparison to the plain surface at respective pressure between 100 and 175 kPa. With the rise in pressure, the boiling heat-transfer coefficient for the micro-finned cylindrical surface increases at a higher rate as compared to the plain surface. This is due to the combined effect of the enhanced surface and decrease in surface tension of the liquid with pressure. The bubble departure diameter decreases with an increase in pressure, as with increased pressure the surface tension decreases, thereby causing an early detachment of the bubble from the surface. The experimental values of bubble departure diameter were compared with the well-known correlations and were found to be within § 20%.

Abstract

The nucleate pool boiling heat transfer over micro-finned cylindrical surfaces has application in the heat exchangers used in thermal power plants and chemical industries. The estimation of boiling heat transfer coefficient is an important parameter in the design of two-phase heat exchangers using micro-finned cylindrical surfaces. In the present work, related experimental investigations on four micro-finned cylindrical surfaces with different surface geometry using refrigerant R-141b at atmospheric pressure are conducted to determine the boiling heat transfer coefficient over micro-finned cylindrical surfaces. A correlation is developed by dimensional analysis wherein the effects of geometrical parameters, operating pressure and thermo-physical properties of fluids are taken into consideration and dimensional analysis conducted using Buckingham π-theorem. The correlation developed utilizes experimental data obtained over the present study as well as from previous studies by various researchers including experimental data for water over different micro-finned cylindrical surfaces at 1 bar by Mehta and Kandlikar, experimental data for R123 at 0.97 bar by Saidi et al. and experimental data for R134a over micro-finned cylindrical surface at 6.1 bar, 8.1 bar, 10.1 bar and 12.2 bar by Rocha et al. The heat flux ranging from 5 to 1100 kW/m2 are considered for the analysis. The data points have been compared with the proposed correlation and the absolute average deviation of the whole data set was obtained as 13.43% with root mean square deviation of 0.0273. All the predicted values were within ±15% of the experimental values of the boiling heat transfer coefficient.

Abstract

Split Air Conditioners (ACs) are more commonly use now a days in residential and commercial buildings for achieving thermal comfort in all seasons. Split ACs works on well-known VCR (Vapour Compression Refrigeration) cycle. Split ACs used more in summer season and due to high outside temperature condenser pressure in a VCR cycle and ultimately result in to high electricity consumption. One of the way to reduce energy consumption of Split ACs and increase cooling capacity is reduce air temperature entering to the condenser in ODU using evaporative cooling principle. In this paper detailed review have been carried out for the improvement of split air conditioner performance and experimental study conducted on Split AC (0.8 TR cooling capacity) with and without evaporative cooling pad at ODU. Evaporative cooling pad material and thickness have been varied to analyse their effects on cooling capacity and coefficient of performance (COP) of Split AC. Out of the PVC, Grass and Cellulose cooling pad of same thickness 150 mm, cellulose cooling pad at ODU of Split AC results about 2 bar reduction in condenser pressure and 1.5 KWH energy saving for 10 hours of operation in a day. Split AC with 100 mm thick cooling pad of cellulose material at ODU results in to approximately 16% increase in overall COP, 10.8 % increase in cooling capacity and 4.6 % reduction in power consumption and at 32 C DBT and about 35% RH outdoor weather condition.

Abstract

This paper presents the experimental results of nucleate pool boiling heat transfer for R141b over a smooth and micro-grooved cylindrical copper surface. The experiments have been conducted at a saturation temperature of 32°C and for heat fluxes ranging from 20 to 150 kW/m2. A copper tube of outside diameter 20 mm and length of 50 mm was used as the test surface. The experimental heat transfer coefficients for pool boiling over smooth cylindrical copper tube have been compared with the empirical correlations and comply within ± 15%. The boiling heat transfer coefficient on the micro-grooved surface was found to be 63.4% to 82.3% higher in comparison to that of plain surface for the wall superheat range from 6 to 8.5 K.

Abstract

The objective of the study is to investigate the performance improvement in a split air conditioning system using evaporative cooling pads at ODU (outdoor unit) and to determine optimum thickness and material of the cooling pad. For this purpose experiments were conducted on 0.8 TR capacity split air conditioner charged with refrigerant R-22. For comparison experiments were performed with and without evaporative cooling pad. The effect of the different cooling pad material and thickness on the overall performance of split air conditioner is experimentally found by measuring cooling capacity and the power consumption of the system including water circulation pump. From the experimental work it is found that the cellulose cooling pad gives the best results among the selected materials. Split air conditioner coupled with cellulose cooling pad of 100 mm thickness at ODU results in to 13.8% increase in overall COP, 9.5 % reduction in power consumption and 5.1 % increase in cooling capacity at 35°C DBT and 32% relative humidity outdoor air condition.

Abstract

The single-point incremental forming process is useful for manufacturing prototypes and customised sheet metal parts. The application of single-point incremental forming to perform hole-flanging operations has been explored by many researchers. The flange can be formed by a single-stage or a multi-stage strategy of single-point incremental forming. A comparative study of both strategies is essential to understand their applicability. In this work, the formability of AA5052-H32 sheet metal has been analysed by finding the Limit Forming Ratio and thickness of the flanges formed with the single-stage and multi-stage strategies. The single-stage strategy reduced the operation time by 105%, whereas the multi-stage strategy increased the formability by 11%. Further, an experimental study has been carried out to understand the effect of process parameters on the flange quality in single-stage single-point incremental …

Abstract

Hole flanging in sheet metal work can be performed by single point incremental forming. It has been explored by researchers for a decade. Further efforts should be made to decrease the operation time and to improve the mechanical properties of the end product obtained by the forming method. In this direction, a new approach to achieve in-process grain refinement on the aluminium 5052-H32 sheet during single point incremental hole flanging has been presented in this work. Square flanges are formed by a low frequency vibration-assisted method using a novel tool with the single-stage approach. Results show that grain refinement was achieved on the square flanges by the proposed tool and the hardness increased. Moreover, a study on the thickness of the flange, the height of the flange, and surface quality has been presented.

Title of PaperExperimental determination of fracture forming line for AA1100 aluminum sheet in single point incremental forming process

PublisherElsevier

Published YearJune 2023

Indexed INOthers

Abstract

The failure prediction in the sheet metal forming process is carried out using the forming limit curve which is always specific to the material under consideration. The single point incremental forming is a novel process in which failure is predicted by the fracture forming line as the deformation involved in the process is in the local area due to gradual movement of the hemispherical ended tool. In this work, the forming limit curve is determined experimentally by forming the different geometries which experiences different strain conditions ranging from the plane strain to bi-axial mode of deformation. The experimental fracture forming line is validated by comparing it with the analytical models available in the literature.

PublisherTaylor & Franscis

Volume Number37(16)

Page Number1837-1849

Indexed INScopus

Abstract

In the recent past, ultrasonic vibration-assisted single-point incremental forming has gained the attention of the metal forming researchers’ interest. Being a latest development, the process is not completely established from the point of view of the underlying mechanism and the effect of the process variables on the formability of the component. The amplitude of vibration and frequency of vibration are two ultrasonic process-specific variables which may affect the formability of the component. In this research work, the effect of amplitude of vibration along with forming feed and step-depth have been studied by performing a groove test on AA3003 aluminum sheet. The FFL for the SPIF process is proposed based on the thickness strain of the tensile testing component. The critical value of amplitude of ultrasonic vibration and ultrasonic intensity is identified demarking the ultrasonic softening and ultrasonic hardening zone.

Abstract

Single-point incremental forming process is a cost-effective die-less process to form sheet metal parts. To implement the forming method in industrial applications, it is required to study forming of various shapes. The available literature on hole flanging by single-point incremental forming is mostly focused on cylindrical flanges and very few studies on the square flange are available. The available study on the square flange is based on multistage experiments. The single-stage forming can reduce the forming time significantly. Therefore, in this work, the single-stage single-point square hole flanging of AA5052-H32 sheet material has been studied. A process-specific fracture forming limit line is obtained by single point incremental hole flanging experiments to analyze the strain behavior during the forming of flanges. A definition of Limit Forming Ratio for square flanging has been proposed and its value for the flange …

Abstract

Composites is a type of material which is made offibers or fillers embedded in matrix. Fibers and fillers are used as reinforcing materials to get the desirable properties to the composite laminates. The matrix is used for binding the reinforcing materials in place and to distribute the stresses due to external force uniformly among the constituent reinforcement materials. In this paper, we are studying an effect of copper Nano particles on mechanical, thermal and morphological properties of short jute fiber reinforced poly lactic acid composites. The composition with 80 grams PLA and 20 grams fiber has the highest tensile strength of 56 N/mm2 as well as has the highest yield strength of 45 N/mm2. It is evident that addition of copper Nano powder decreases both tensile and yield strength. The composition with 77 grams PLA, 20 grams fiber and 3 grams copper Nano powder has the highest Izod impact strength of 16 joules

Abstract

Single-stage toolpath strategies used in the single point incremental forming process are suffering the problems related to formability, geometric accuracy, and non-uniform thinning. A multistage forming strategy can be used to improve the same, however, it leads to the formation of protrusion defect due to rigid body translation. In this paper, the multistage toolpath strategy has been proposed to circumvent this issue for hemispherical shape which is difficult to produce using a single-stage forming strategy due to 90 tool entry angle at the base. The proposed strategy doesn't require the calculation of rigid body translation and produces the hemispherical shape without the formation of protrusion defect. Enhancement in formability using proposed multistage forming strategy, in terms of depth of forming, uniform strain distribution and thinning have been presented based on experimental and numerical investigation …

Abstract

Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of lumbar spine is carried out using the optimisation software, to determine the effect of accidents on the human spine under mechanical loading. The lower two lumbar section–L4 and L5 of spinal cord is focussed in the present study. A simplified model of the L4-L5 vertebra was prepared. Bone material was taken as nonlinear and disc centre was modelled as hyper elastic. The ligaments are modelled as 1D truss elements. 2 D triangular mesh was generated and converted to 3D tetrahedral mesh. The range of force of 500 N to 1600N and moment of 7500 Nm was given as an input. The relationship of displacement, stress and strain with force is studied. The analysis was carried out and the results obtained depicted that the force varies depending on the impact of accidents. Conclusions are drawn and the relationship at different values of force was obtained.

Abstract

In the present paper, finite element analysis of the knee joint is performed for stress and strain estimation of the knee joint for osteoarthritis patients. Osteoarthritis (OA), called the wear and tear arthritis is commonly occurring arthritis wherein a gradual loss of cartilage from the joints are observed. This leads to the joint bones rubbing quite close against one another with less amount of shock-absorbing done by the cartilage causing pain, stiffness, swelling, decreased movability and bone spur formation can be observed. It is mostly observed in patients above 45 years old, but weight and gender are also some of the factors forcing a quick onset of the disease. Using modelling software Blender, a solid model is made of the bone component, namely tibia, fibula, femur and patella as well as Ligaments and cartilages. Using finite element simulation software, analysis is done to determine the level of stress under various …

Abstract

Ultrasonic vibrations have found widespread engineering applications. The use of ultrasonic vibrations in machining and welding processes have reached the commercially viable stage. However, the application of ultrasonic vibrations in sheet metal forming applications is still in the research phase. This paper addresses the application of ultrasonic vibrations in a single point incremental forming process. The main focus of the paper is on the development of the ultrasonic vibration-assisted forming set-up customised to the vertical machining centre (VMC). Experiments have also been conducted with the developed set-up to produce the hemispherical shape which is difficult to form using a single-stage strategy using the single point incremental forming process. A multi-stage forming strategy has been used to form the hemispherical shape and the analysis of the results has been presented.

Abstract

Metal spinning is one of the ancient metal forming processes. Today, it has gained popularity due to its immense advantages over other metal forming processes. There are several complexities associated with the spin forming process. Different metal requires different forces and different procedures to generate the desired shape of the product. The uniformity in the thickness is also an important aspect to consider in manufacturing with the spinning process. The present work aims to perform the FE simulation of the metal spinning process using explicit dynamics solver LS-DYNA. To study the metal spin forming process resultant force and stress obtained through FE simulation are used as response variables.

Abstract

The formability of 1 mm thick AA5182 aluminum alloy sheets in deep drawing of square cups by hydroforming was studied. The influence of process parameters (peak pressure, pressure path, and blank holding force) on formability was investigated through numerical simulations and validated with experimental work. The experiments were designed using the Taguchi method. The minimum thickness in the formed cups (at the bottom corners) and the minimum corner radius that can be achieved were considered as the criteria for evaluation of formability. The peak pressure was the most important process parameter affecting thinning and the minimum corner radius that can be achieved. The variation of the pressure path had the least effect on formability. Regression models were developed for prediction of minimum thickness in the cup and the corner radius as a function of peak pressure and blank holding …

Abstract

This survey article highlights the difficulties in the field maintenance of telecommunication towers. It critically analyses the main features of the deployment of robots to maintain telecommunication towers. The growing demand for mobile connectivity poses the need for more towers, and the subsequent problem of network maintenance becomes more critical. Most tower maintenance is required work at height; therefore, height‐related risks are more frequent. A rigorous review is conducted, and the growth of the telecommunications network and key on‐site maintenance challenges are analyzed. Despite numerous challenges, these towers are maintained manually by riggers (certified climbers) worldwide. It raises the question, Is it possible to implement automation by robots for the maintenance of telecommunications towers? The feasibility analysis to deploy the robots is conducted systematically. To access the tower through a robot, detailed information on the type of towers, the climbing arrangements available on the existing towers, and the necessary operations to be carried out at the height is collected. A critical analysis of the climbing robots currently available in the literature, their grasping technology, and control algorithms is performed. The opinion of experts in the telecommunication industry is very helpful in identifying the requirements of robotic systems. The design attributes especially needed for the climbing robot, and the execution of the maintenance in height are highlighted. Due justification is given for deploying robots for field maintenance of telecom towers. The recommended methodology for designing an automation system helps research in the field of maintenance of telecom towers through robots, which could bring a remarkable solution to the telecom sector

Abstract

Abstract The painting on tall structures, statues, monuments and buildings is dangerous task for humans. Robotics finds its applications in operations, which are repetitive, hazardous, and dangerous. The aim of the present work is to design a manipulator for spray painting on surfaces of tall monuments, statues and structures. The robot can be installed on a crane platform for lifting and operated from the ground. A lightweight and compact design is desired that can be easily accommodated within the space of the crane. A Revolute-Revolute-Revolute-Prismatic (RRRP) type Robotic arm is developed and analysed for this application. By establishing the rigid body tree model in Robotics System Toolbox, the numerical model of direct and inverse kinematics using Homogenous Matrix Transformation is prepared in MATLAB. Using the spray patch method and offline programming method, the spray model is prepared in Solid woks to obtain trajectory waypoints. A B-spline path is generated through these waypoints. At each waypoint, joint displacement variables are calculated using an inverse kinematic model. An air-less spray gun is selected and attached with a robot. Controlled motion algorithm for spray painting operation on a circular surface were obtained with simulation results. A smooth trajectory for performing spray painting is obtained. © 2021 Institute of Physics Publishing. All rights reserved.

Abstract

Functionally Graded Material (FGM) is a distinctive type of material in which properties vary steadily and smoothly across any direction which gives overall high performance in terms of mechanical and thermal aspects. Functionally graded material (FGM) application has a wide scope in modern tools and technology, which includes aerospace, pressure vessel of a nuclear reactor, High end cutting tools, etc. The main prominence of this paper is to present the structural mechanical and thermal analysis of cylindrical shells made up of ceramic and Aluminum used for fabrication of pressure vessels and reactors in heavy engineering applications. The FGM cylindrical is subjected to different boundary conditions and internal pressure. The material properties of FGM are pondered over the thickness utilizing power-law using MATLAB programming. The novel methodology for finite element analysis is applied for different volume gradations using MACROS in ANSYS APDL. The analysis outcomes for functionally graded materials are matched with a composite sandwich cylinder for the same boundary conditions. It was discovered that Von-Mises stress created in FGM is 22.23% less in comparison with sandwich structure, the stress in x, y, and z-direction is 22.23, 23.97, and 37.92% less and deflection is 18.11% less compared to sandwich cylindrical shell of aluminum and ceramic. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Abstract

The aim of this project is to design a vibrating screen with vibromotor by which we can get the efficient screening process in the batch mix plant. To fulfill requirement of vibrating screen 50 Hz frequency vibromotor is selected. Maximum amount of vibration is expected from vibrating screen. Hence, it is required that natural frequency of the vibrator screen should be as near as possible to vibromotor natural frequency. Various iterations have been performed in design of vibrating screen to bring its natural frequency close to 50 Hz. To improve damping property of base support, spring support is designed and analyzed. Analy-sis results are within the permissible limits. Finally, fatigue analysis is done for whole screen and support. Results of analysis shows that frequency, displacement and stresses are within the limits.

Abstract

Purpose of the vibrating screen is to separate material in different sizes according to the requirement. This can be achieved by producing vibration with the exciter mechanism. The side wall plate of the vibrating screen is subjected to fatigue loading condition and critical zone is prone to initiate crack. This fatigue crack propagates and reach to its critical level and leads to the final failure of a plate. In order to prevent catastrophic failure and to save replacing and maintaining cost, it is highly required to identify critical zones in a plate where chances of initiation of cracks are more. This can be achieved by designing the plate from basic principles of the fatigue and fatigue crack growth for given loading conditions. The aim of present work is to identify complete loading condition and stress level of the side plate. First part of the present work involves the analysis of cracked and uncrack plate for given loading condition and critical values of stress and loads are found. The analysis is done using finite element technique and results are compared with acceptance criteria. In second part above results of the finite element analysis are utilized for redesigning and analyzing the vibrating screen for modification. The best design for the vibrating screen is proposed after various iterations and modifications. The different parts of the mechanism are modeled and assembled using CAD software and analysis is carried out using ANSYS software. The results for structural analysis of structure are found within permissible limits.

Abstract

The evolution of population and swift urbanization has augmented the quantum of municipal solid waste (MSW) across the globe. The MSW has numerous problems, such as health issues, climate change, societal imbalance, etc. Decision-makers continuously investigate a practical and viable solution for eradicating the solid waste management issue. The circular economy offers a critical solution for managing solid waste with a more organized and constructive approach. The study proposes the key facets to design a solid waste management system driven by the circular economy. The circular economy framework emphasizes the 4 R’s- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover. The review instils the importance of a waste collection and sorting station, waste treatment methods, and recovery of valuables from waste. The importance of policies and legislation in solid waste management systems with cases of developed countries are also discussed. The study further elaborates on the various aspects of the circular economy, including economic, social, and environmental paradigms. An insight into achieving sustainability through a circular economy-based MSW management system is presented. CE-based waste management offers eco-friendly business models, environmental justice, and upliftment of social well-being. The paper acknowledges the worldwide business groups that have adopted the circular economy and are trying to achieve sustainability. The opportunities cited by globally renowned organizations to limit waste generation and observe material recycling and reuse in their workspace and products have also been highlighted. The study offers an understanding of the system that brings prosperity and harmony to society.

Abstract

The tape spring is defined as a straight, thin-walled elastic strip with a curved cross section. It has inherent properties which allow for folding elastically, and when unfolded, it releases stored energy. In aerospace applications, these properties are used to deploy an antenna, solar panels, structural booms, and arrays. For many years, metallic tape springs have been in application, but the present trend is towards a tape spring made of carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) due to its low mass, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and tailorable properties. The tape springs made of CFRP have wide applications for space deployable structures. This work comprises the exploration of numerical methods to find the moment-rotation relation of folding the CFRP tape spring. The moment-rotation relation is obtained for equal and opposite sense bending using numerical methods like the analytical approach and the finite element (FE) method. Detailed nonlinear structures simulations are carried out using the nonlinear explicit dynamic solver Altair Radioss. Material properties [0°, 90°]2 lay-up style for laminates and boundary conditions are applied to the CFRP tape spring to analyse the effect of a moment with angular rotation. Conclusions were made with the results obtained by FE simulations in comparison with the results obtained by an analytical model. The FE simulation results deviate from the analytical model with a maximum bending moment for equal sense by 5.84% and the opposite sense bending by 1.01%. The results are in good agreement and presented with logical conclusions.

Abstract

Spalling in rolling element bearing is a common localized defect generated during the operation of bearing due to rolling fatigue. Size estimation of such localized defect can be helpful in determining severity of the fault. This further can be used as an input for predicting the remaining useful life of the bearing. The popular approach for estimating the size (in terms of width) of spall is to trace the entry and exit events of rolling element while interacting with the fault. The time estimated between entry and exit of rolling element from pit like spall can be converted to the geometric estimation is the fault size from vibration signature. The present approach demonstrates the use of Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) to accomplish the task. The vibration signals generated from the interaction of rolling element with the localized fault is a hybrid signal consisting of low frequency stepped response generated while the rolling element enters the fault and is superimposed on to the high frequency impact generated during the reentry of the rolling element in to the raceway from the spall. The signal information is enhanced via preprocessing the signal with Total Variance Regularization (TVR) filtration. The informative signal, which is extracted from the row temporal signal via SSA, aids in the accurate identification of entry and exit events. The proposed method integrating TVR with SSA for faut size estimation is validated using simulated signals and experimental signals from independent resources. The result shows strong agreement with the accuracy level of size estimation.

Abstract

In many of our developing countries, we face many problems regarding agro-waste. If the wastes are not managed then there will be increased in the quantity of waste. In order to manage these wastes, solutions are required and one of the solution is discussed here. The present study discusses about the hydraulic briquette line which is used to make briquettes. This hydraulic briquette line basically consists of three equipment's a shredder machine, a screw conveyor and a hydraulic briquette machine. Because of good characteristics of sugar-cane bagasse such as low ash content compared to coal, lignin cells are present which acts as a binder, etc., it has been used for making briquettes. Bagasse having long tissues, it is first cut into small parts with the help of shredding machine. These cut bagasse is conveyed to the hydraulic briquette machine with the help of screw conveyor. This conveyed bagasse is compressed in hydraulic briquette machine with the help of hydraulic cylinders. This paper discusses the detailed design of all three equipment i.e. a hydraulic briquette machine, a screw conveyor and a shredding machine.

Abstract

A flyer is a textile machinery component used for spinning thread and is mounted on a roving frame. A roving frame normally consists of around two hundred flyers. This paper deals with the investigation of failure of the bush and pin joint in the presser of the flyer. This failure is serious as it results in production downtime of the roving frame and involves considerable replacement cost. It is present practice to use bush made of polyamide (blended with 10% graphite). Alternative bush material considered is polyamide (blended with 15% graphite and 10% Teflon). The dynamic simulation is performed to find the variation of presser force and reaction at bush with bobbin diameter. The loss in wear volume is evaluated by means of finite element analysis (FEA), and semi-analytical approach is adopted for calculating the wear depth. The results are in confirmation with actual wear life with polyamide (blended with 10% graphite). The comparison of wear life reveals that bush made from polyamide (blended with 15% graphite and 10% Teflon) results in approximately double life as compared to that made from polyamide (blended with 10% graphite). Hence, it is recommended to use bush made from polyamide (blended with 15% graphite and 10% Teflon).

Abstract

For improving the functionality, a quadruped robot must have the capabilities to manoeuvre over different terrain conditions like slope & stair climbing, obstacle avoidance, uneven & rough terrain, etc. In all such conditions, the primary requirement for a robot is to be stable while walking. In the present work, an attempt is made to develop a gait scheme of quadruped robots for statically stable straightforward stair climbing and descending, with horizontal posture. The use of a discontinuous type of gait in the proposed scheme makes it more stable and easier to implement. The proposed scheme has been simulated and its stability is validated

Abstract

High mobility and maneuverability are the most desirable features for a rough terrain locomotion system. In the recent scenario, energy conservation needs to be considered while selecting a desired mobility of the system. Wheeled robots can give desired mobility with fewer energy requirements than legged robots. Limitation of wheeled mobile robots is to pass obstacles height more than half of the wheel diameter. This paper presents a novel design that can pass obstacles of the same height as its own wheel and imparts viable solution to the current limitations. A robot is designed and analyzed with basic mathematical considerations. The results of analytical solutions are compared with the actual prototype model. The control of the robot from the far location is required. The presented autonomous stair climber robot is controlled by a Raspberry pi controller to trigger the circuits of the robot. This robust design increases the mobility of the wheeled robot and reduces energy requirement along with smooth stair climbing motion. This work can also be extended to have locomotion on uneven terrain.

Abstract

Soft actuators are the latest trend of research because of their light weight and ease of manufacturing and control. Soft actuators have expanded their fields and taken place in many applications where linear or angular deflection is required. Soft actuators are very useful in the applications where deflection is required with soft touch. Soft Actuators are highly compliant and adaptive to unknown environments. Because of these characteristics, soft actuators are very popular in the field of medical and in the applications where interaction with fragile structure is required. The soft actuators can give required responses mostly depends on their shape. Linear or angular deformation can be achieved by changing the geometrical shape of actuators. This paper presents the effect of geometrical shape on axial deformation of soft pneumatic actuator. Samples of soft actuators are selected with various shapes for finite element analysis. Results are obtained in form of axial and lateral deformation. An attempt is made to achieve good amount of axial deformation with very less or negligible lateral deformation by selecting appropriate shape. Based on the generated results, the shape is identified which gives desired results and more suitable among the selected nine samples. This sample can be useful in the application having space constraint in lateral direction.

Abstract

Surface Composites can be tailored according to the requirement of the application, also their surface properties can be enhanced without changing the bulk properties of the matrix. FSP is a unique technique to fabricate surface composite of magnesium and aluminum alloys. FSP works on a similar principle to FSW. FSP tool is rotated on the surface of the parent material and traveled along one direction of the plane. The tool consists of a pin and a shoulder, the shoulder is kept in contact with the base material, and the tool pin is plunged into the material which contains reinforcement to produce a surface composite. AA6061 is known for its good weldability and resistance to corrosion. Due to their good mechanical properties, they are used in heavy-duty structures like truck frames, ships, Aerospace vehicles, Boilers, Motorboats, Rivets, etc. In this paper, the surface composite of aluminum AA6061 was made by using Al2O3/CNT and B4C/CNT as the hybrid reinforcement particles. A three-pass FSP was used for the process. Optical Microscopy, microhardness, wear rate, and coefficient of friction of both surface composites were compared and results were discussed. Both specimens showed improvement in mechanical properties but because B4C has a higher hardness value than Al2O3, therefore B4C/CNT hybrid surface composite showed a higher hardness value compared to another hybrid surface composite. However, Al2O3/CNT hybrid composite showed better tribological properties because of the even distribution of particles and better compatibility between reinforcement particles.

Abstract

In this paper, Friction Stir Processing (FSP) was employed to produce a surface composite of AA5083 aluminum alloy by using different reinforcement materials. Silicon Carbide (SiC), Aluminium Oxide (Al2O3), Graphite (Gr), and CNT (Carbon Nanotube) were employed as the reinforcement particles to study their effect on the hardness property of the produced surface composite. A constant tool rotating speed of 1000 rpm, tool traverse speed of 50 mm/min, and 2 FSP passes were used to process the material. Optical Microscopy and microhardness testing were analyzed to study the effect of reinforcement particles on the produced hybrid surface composite. It was found that the specimen with SiC reinforcement showed the best hardness values followed by Al2O3, Gr, and CNT respectively. Optical Microscopy showed that the 2 passes of FSP assisted in the homogeneous dispersion of the reinforcement material in the base matrix.

Abstract

Friction Stir Processing (FSP) is a well-established solid-state severe plastic deformation surface alteration procedure. Fabrication, processing, and synthesis of materials with just surface alterations are all parts of FSP. As a result, the metal's base characteristics are preserved, and the result is a surface composite. FSP has lately been popular for producing surface composites that improve the tribological, mechanical, and microstructural properties of certain metals. Alloys of aluminum are used widely due to their light weightiness and corrosion resistance. AA2014 is used in the aircraft and automotive industries for its good machinability properties and good strength-to-weight ratio. In the current experiment, FSP was employed to produce a surface composite of AA2014 by using hybrid nano-sized SiC–CNT reinforcement. The number of passes has an important impact in determining the qualities of the surface composite in FSP. This paper examines the effect of the number of passes while keeping rotational and traversal speeds constant during FSP. After the experiment, analysis was carried out for microhardness and tribological properties. One-, two-, and three-pass FSPs were used to process the AA2014. The properties of the base metal, one-pass, two-pass, and three-pass Friction Stir Processed (FSPed) specimens were studied and compared by performing the experiment three times. From the average results of conducted experiments, it can be deduced that by increasing the number of passes, the microstructure improves in addition to improved coefficient of friction (COF), microhardness, and wear resistance for prepared specimens.

Abstract

A new variant of activated tungsten inert gas (A-TIG) welding is flux-bounded tungsten inert gas (FB-TIG) welding. The present study explores the nature of flux gap and variation of flux as a single component over the geometry of weld bead in 2205 duplex stainless steel (DSS) FB-TIG weld joint. Significant improvement in penetration depth is observed at the flux gap at 2 mm with SiO2 flux, which is 193% higher than the TIG weld. Constriction of the arc is a predominant mechanism responsible for high penetration depth. Along with this, the article discusses the variation of welding current as a heat input over weld bead geometry, microstructure, and mechanical properties. The peak value of tensile strength of the FB-TIG weld is 10% higher than the TIG weld metal. However, the maximum microhardness of FB-TIG weld metal is 2% less than that of TIG weld metal.

Abstract

In this study, a hybrid surface composite of AA5083/SiC-Gr was produced by Friction Stir Processing (FSP). Reinforcement material each in 50:50 proportion was filled in the base matrix using holes method. Three different hybrid reinforcement volumes of 301.6 mm3, 452.4 mm3, and 603.2 mm3 were prepared for surface composite. Optical and Scanning Electron Microscopy was used to check the quality of the prepared surface composite and homogeneous distribution of reinforcement was observed in the images. It was observed that due to better uniform distribution of reinforcement particles during 3 pass FSP, specimens with 301.6 mm3 reinforcement volume showed enhanced microhardness and wear properties in comparison with the other specimens. © 2023 Polish Academy of Sciences.

Abstract

Microwave processing of metal base material is a novel and energy-efficient technique. Microwave heating of bulk metal is an emerging method with cost, time, and energy savings over conventional heating methods. This numerical study uses the finite element method-based COMSOL Multiphysics tool to analyse the microwave heating properties of a bulk metal sample. Further in this study, the effects of tooling design assembly and microwave power parameters have been analysed for temperature profile and electric field distribution. The outcome of parametric variations has been analysed in terms of electric field distribution, heating uniformity, temperature gradient, and energy requirement. Experimental results coincided with simulated results in terms of time-temperature characteristics within ±5% error. The heating uniformity of bulk metal can be achieved at low power with small-size component whereas high power creates thermal heterogeneity with high energy consumption. The cylindrical casket geometry shows uniform field distribution with rapid heating of the specimen compared to prismatic geometry. Susceptor's dielectric properties have a significant effect on the homogeneity of the process, and the heating efficiency of the irradiated specimen. The present simulation model can be used to control the heating rate of bulk metal considering various dynamic parametric properties for a complex microwave hybrid heating process.

Abstract

Abstract: In this paper, the wear resistance and microhardness of the hybrid and mono surface composite with Al–Mg–Mn alloy (AA5083) as the matrix material and SiC, Al2O3, Gr, and CNT as the reinforcement material was investigated experimentally. The surface composite was fabricated by friction stir processing (FSP). The microstructure of the prepared specimens was observed using optical microscopy. Mono reinforced surface composite and hybrid reinforced surface composite were tested for their microhardness and wear resistance before and after FSP and the results were compared. The surface composites showed uniform dispersion and finer grain size after FSP in comparison with the as-received AA5083. FSP aided the hybrid reinforced surface composite to increase the maximum microhardness value to 107.5 HV in SiC/Gr reinforcement as compared to the 89.11 HV in mono Gr reinforced surface composite and 75.15 HV in as-received AA5083. The hybrid surface composite also provided enhanced wear resistance in comparison with the mono reinforced surface composite and the base material.

Abstract

Due to the major applications in various industries, the global demand for Metal Matrix Composites (MMC) is increasing. The characteristics of manufactured composites highly depend upon the manufacturing method. The present research article showcases the manufacturing of three different compositions, namely AA 2014 + 5 wt.% SiC, AA 2014 + 10 wt.% SiC and AA 2014 + 15 wt.% SiC. A stir casting process has been implemented to manufacture these composites. While implementing the casting process one cannot get rid of the defects that are generated during the solidification. Thus, to avoid these defects in as-cast composites, friction stir processing (FSP) has been performed. FSP avoids casting defects and further enhances the distribution of reinforcement particles. The considered combinations of rotational speed and transverse speed are as follows (i) 270 rpm and 78 mm/min (E1 condition) and (ii) 190 rpm and 50 mm/min (E2 condition). Furthermore, the article compares the microstructure, microhardness and tribological properties of the as-received AA 2014 alloy, as-cast and processed composites. Irrespective of the FSP condition, AA 2014 + 10% SiC composites revealed the highest wear resistance among all the variety of specimens considered for the wear test.

Abstract

The present study aims at identifying the critical Reynolds number for transition from laminar to turbulent in irregular shaped minichannels. Numerical study including conjugate heat transfer and axial conduction is carried out using commercially available software ANSYS fluent®. The channel of length 105 mm, width 4.5 mm, and height 2 mm is fabricated in an aluminium substrate of length 114 mm (L), width 15 mm (W) and height 6.3 mm (H). Water is used as working fluid. Average hydraulic diameter (Dh) of mini-channel is 2.86 mm, and cross section area varies non-uniformly from 10 mm2 to 18 mm2 along the length. Problem is set up with mass flow rate and outflow boundary condition at inlet and outlet respectively. Bottom wall is given with uniform heat flux (q) of 200 watts thus incorporating conduction in solid wall of channel. Temperature difference between the inlet and outlet are compared with experimental measurement and found to be in good agreement. It is observed that the heat transfer coefficient as well as pressure drop both increases with increase in mass flow rate, however, increase in pressure drop is found larger compared to increase in heat transfer coefficient. Further, we also found the axial conduction in the solid wall. It is interesting to note that the transition from laminar to turbulent is observed at lower Reynolds number. Present work provides platform to study thermal and fluid flow behaviour of the irregular shaped mini-channels.

Abstract

Biodiesel is relatively higher corrosive compared to Diesel; consequently, the concern of viability is now a foremost issue. The biodiesel is self-oxidative in the environment; thus, its characteristics might be changed as fuel. The current work investigates the behavior of numerous biodiesel corresponding to corrosion when exposed to the surface of metal coupons. A gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was performed on eight biodiesel and a hypothesis was proposed to corroborate the hypothesis; static immersion tests, scanning electron microscopic (SEM) and surface roughness analysis were conducted. The immersion test was conducted for 150 days at ambient temperature conditions; later on, the corrosion rate of metals was examined. Results indicate that the Bronze has a maximum corrosion rate of 0.0674 mpy with Karanja biodiesel, followed by palm biodiesel. The Karanja biodiesel has the highest susceptibility to corrosion with all metals, while the Diesel is found to be the lowest with intermediate values for Rapeseed and Castor.

Abstract

This paper deals with experimental and modelling studies carried out for different Equivalence Ratio(ER). Seven different ER (0.24e0.386) were selected to investigate the downdraft gasifier performance.The lignite and sawdust briquette (70:30, %wt.) were used as feedstock in a 10 kWe atmospheric pressuredowndraft gasifier. The fuel consumption and air consumption were observed to exist in the range of0.54 kg h1to 11.1 kg h1and 0.59 kg h1to 19.5 kg h1respectively. The Lower Heating Value (LHV) andgas yield were found to be 4.91 MJ Nm3and 2.99 Nm3kg1respectively at 0.386 ER. Tar and ParticulateMatter (PM) were found in the range of 516.3 mg Nm3to 565.23 mg Nm3and 47.86 mg Nm3to57.29 mg Nm3respectively for different ER. The CGE observed was 80.03% whereas the tar and PM werereported as 516.3 mg Nm3and 47.86 mg Nm3respectively at ER of 0.386. A thermo-equilibrium modelwas developed to estimate the producer gas compositions and LHV. The results were compared with theexperimental results from the literature and good agreement between the two was observed.

Abstract

The gradual reduction of world petroleum reserves, growths in prices of petroleum-based fuels and environmental pollution has increased attention to the search for unconventional fuels such as biodiesel. It has remained the focus of an extensive amount of research since it is renewable and reduces the emission of pollutants. Though, some of the significant issues like compatibility of biodiesel with the crankcase lube oil, thermal stability of lube oil with biodiesel, changes in physical and chemical properties of lubricating oil with biodiesel, etc. have not been adequately inspected. These requirements are to be addressed in order to confirm the long-term suitability of biodiesel in a current family of diesel engines. In the present work, these problems are addressed. With an overall objective of life cycle analysis, a long run endurance test (512 h) is carried out on CI engines fuelled with diesel and the optimized blend of bio-diesel fuel (B20A4) respectively. The endurance tests are directed as per IS 10,000 for the examination of wear of engine components, lubricant's properties, suspended impurities, and wear metal debris. The wear of the various component of the engine is characterized by dimension and weight measurements. Lube oil analysis (Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy – AAS, Ferrography) were performed on oil samples, taken after every 128 h. The oil analysis suggested that the wear of B20A4 fuelled engine is substantially lower compared to the diesel. A regression model was also proposed to predict the wear of the engine. The proposed regression model can be taken one step further to predict the overall wear of the engine. The total concentration of various metals debris collected in the lube oil sample (predicted using regression model) was found to be 640 mg/kg and 420 mg/kg for diesel and B20A4 respectively.

Abstract

Gasification is a thermochemical conversion of carbonaceous biomass into the producer gas. Gasification of lignite, wood, sawdust briquette, and their mixtures are investigated on a 10 kWe laboratory scale downdraft gasifier at atmospheric pressure. The air is used as a gasifying medium. The gasifier was operated on different particle sizes of lignite and lignite-wood ratio; 22–25 mm lignite particle size and lignite – wood ratio (70:30, w/w) were found to be optimum to overcome clinker formation and higher Cold Gas Efficiency (CGE). To avoid unwanted maintenance, it is essential to diminish the producer gas pollutants such as tar and particulate matter (PM) before injecting the producer gas into a turbine or a gas engine. A setup was developed to measure tar and PM from the producer gas. The gasifier performance was evaluated on various parameters such as tar, PM, fuel consumption, gas yield, gas composition, gas calorific value and CGE for all selected feedstock. The tar in the producer gas was found in the range of 201.30 mg Nm−3 to 617.80 mg Nm−3 whereas PM was found in the range of 36.76 mg Nm−3 to 68.35 mg Nm−3. CGE and gas calorific value were observed in the range between 64.99% and 71.62% and 4.64 MJ Nm−3 to 5.29 MJ Nm−3, respectively. Specific fuel consumption (SFC) was obtained in the range of 1.52 kg kWh−1 to 1.84 kg kWh−1. CGE with lignite – wood or sawdust briquette ratio (70:30, w/w) is found maximum whereas tar and PM are found minimum with wood and sawdust briquette feedstock in the present study.

Abstract

The present work emphasis on the reduction of diesel engine emission using Jatropha-based bio-diesel and diethyl ether (DEE). The experiments show that with 20% (B20) addition of bio-diesel, the BSFC and BSEC increase by 7% and 10% while efficiency and emissions - CO, CO2, NOx, and HC - decreases by 1%, 64%, 5%, 18%, and 48% respectively. However, it also shows that even optimized blend (B20) is not able to meet stringent emission norms - particularly for NOx - set by EURO IV. For the further reduction of the NOx, DEE is added from 0% to 5% in B20. The results show that the addition of 4% DEE, does not significantly influence the engine performance, however reduction in NOx found to be 40% compared with diesel fuel. A hypothesis is proposed that "The reduction in engine emission is due to improvement in combustion in presence of DEE". The hypothesis is validated through combustion analysis showing an increase in peak pressure (Pmax) by 7% and a reduction in delay period by 1.5 degrees with the addition of 4% DEE in B20.

Abstract

When a pump is running in turbine mode, susceptibility to cavitation increases, and it may be more severe than that in conventional hydro turbines. To accomplish the basic aim of making a compact machine with a high setting, a certain amount of cavitation can be allowed, then the erosion risk may be predicted. In the present study, experimental investigations were carried out on cavitation characteristics of a pump running in turbine mode in the nondimensional speed (N∗) range of 0.64–1.07. For cavitation analysis, an additional suction creation system was installed, and different techniques were applied for cavitation detection viz pressure measurement, visual inspection, and vibration analysis. The performance of pump as turbine was found better in the N∗ of 0.71–0.86 in terms of higher efficiency and lesser possibility of cavitation. From the sigma test, the critical value of σ was found as 0.595. The study revealed that, when a pump is operated as a turbine, it might be suffering from traveling bubble and von Karman vortex cavitation near impeller blades and vortex rope cavitation in the draft tube.

Abstract

Gasification of lignite and waste wood mixtures is investigated in an atmospheric pilot-scale (10 kWe)downdraft gasifier, employing air as the gasifying medium. The system was originally designed and built for lignite fuel. The gasifier was operated on various lignite particle sizes; 22e25 mm particle size was found favorable. However, clinker formation was observed during operation of gasifier using lignite as a fuel. Other issues were clinker formation, bridging or channel burning, erosion, and corrosion due to the high ash content of lignite, etc. The co-gasification study was intended to minimize the clinker formation along with improvement in the producer gas heating value. In order to do so, experiments with a mixture of waste wood-lignite were carried out. Mixture ratios of 10%e90%, 20%e80% and 30%e70% (w/w) of waste wood-lignite were investigated and results of co-gasification experiments were compared to lignite only gasification. The lignite and wood particle size was 22e25 mm and 50505mmrespectively. The gasifier performance was evaluated on various parameters namely, specific gas yield, efficiency based on energy and exergy, fuel consumption rate and gas composition. Mass and energy balance was carried out for gasification of lignite and its mixture with waste wood. With increase inwood percentage, the clinker formation reduced and almost became negligent with wood percentage reaching to 30%. The energy efficiency, exergy efficiency, LHV (Lower heating value) of gas and gas yield increased by 8.92%, 11.66%, 6.31%, and 9.33%, respectively.

Abstract

As an alternative fuel for compression ignition engines, biofuels are in principle renewable and carbon unbiased. However, their use raises technical, economic and environmental issues. A complete technical review on the use of biofuel (pure oil/blend with diesel/blend with diesel in the presence of additives) in CI engines based on performance and emission comparisons with diesel fuel is carried out in this work. It is observed that biofuel seems to be a good option to substantially reduce environmental emissions. Although the majority of biofuels can be used in CI engine without any modifications, change in operating parameters (injection timing, injection pressure & compression ratio) is advisable for improvement in engine performance. Moreover, short-run studies show that biofuels have great potential to replace conventional diesel fuel, the review suggests that biofuels produce various problem when used for an extended period of times. Especially, in this study particular attention is focused on the long run test (life cycle analysis) of CI engine fuelled with biofuels. The study suggests that use of biofuels produces various tribological issues on key components of CI engine. In the literature the tribological studies were discussed with atomic absorption spectroscopy, surface roughness analysis, wear analysis, close microscopic image analysis, etc. of the CI engine components.

Abstract

The response surface method is adopted to express the output parameter (brake thermal efficiency) as a function of engine parameters including compression ratio (CR), injection pressure (IP) and injection timing (IT). The range of engine parameters selected is: 16 ≤ CR ≤ 18; 180 ≤ IP ≤ 220 bar; 15° ≤ IT ≤ 250 BTDC. It is shown that the proposed Box–Behnken design required only 15 runs of experiments for the response surface between output parameters and engine parameters. Using ‘Design Expert’ software, 2D and 3D plots are generated. Such plots give an idea of the domination of process variables and exhibit the trend of interaction between the variables. Moreover, a statistical significant test (ANOVA) is carried out to develop a ‘Regression Model’. The results of ANOVA suggested that the proposed ‘Regression Model’ is the best fit with Standard Deviation of 0.093, Adjusted R2 of 0.9619 and Adequate Precision of 19.686. Further the validation of ‘Regression Model’ is carried out by comparing the predicted values of thermal efficiency with that of experimental observations. The comparison suggested that the model is robust enough to predict the thermal efficiency of the CI engine over a wide range of operating conditions with an error of less than 1%. Finally an optimum combination of engine parameters i.e. CR = 18, IP = 220 bar and IT = 200 before top dead centre is proposed.

Abstract

The major limitations of mini/micro hydropower schemes are the higher cost of small capacity hydro turbines. Also, it is very cumbersome, time-consuming and expensive to develop the site-specific turbines corresponding to local site conditions in mini/micro hydro range. In such plants, small centrifugal pumps can be used in turbine mode by running in the reverse direction. The efficiency of the pump as turbines (PATs) is usually lower than the conventional hydro turbines; however, there may be a substantial decrease in the capital cost of the plant. Hydropower plants usually run at part load for several months in a year due to insufficient water availability for the power generation. The application range of PAT can be widened if its part load and/or maximum efficiency can be improved. In the present study, experimental investigations are carried out on centrifugal pump running in turbine mode to optimize its geometric and operational parameters e.g. impeller diameter and rotational speed. The experiments were performed in the wide range of rotational speeds varying from 900 to 1500 rpm with original (∅ 250 mm), 10% trimmed (∅ 225 mm) and 20% trimmed (∅ 200 mm) impellers. Impeller trimming led to the improvement in efficiency at part-load operating conditions. The performance of PAT was found better at the lower speeds than that at the rated speed. The effects of blade rounding were studied in all the cases and it led to 3–4% rise in efficiency at rated speed with the original impeller. The empirical correlation is also developed for prediction of efficiency in terms of impeller diameter and rotational speed in non-dimensional form.

Abstract

In this work, an experimental study of the gasification of lignite with various particle sizes was carried out in a pilot-scale (10 kWe) downdraft type fixed bed gasifier. The main objective of the study was to investigate the feasibility of the lignite as a fuel for downdraft gasifier and to evaluate the effect of the particle size on gasifier performance. The influence of the particle size on the fuel consumption rate, temperature profile in the various zone, gas yield, gas composition, and cold gas efficiency was studied. Six different particle sizes viz. 13–16 mm, 16–19 mm, 19–22 mm, 22–25 mm, 25–28 mm, 28–31 mm were selected for experimental work. With the increase in particle size, the reduction in fuel consumption rate was observed, whereas the producer gas production rate had increased. The heating value of the gas increased as particle size increased from 13–16 mm to 22–25 mm and the same had decreased with increase in particle size. The higher temperature in the reduction zone resulted in higher H2 and CO contents in producer gas. Under the experiment conditions, the fuel consumption rate, gas yields, LHV (Lower heating value) of gas fuel and cold gas efficiency varied in the range of 9.58–10.67 kg/hr, 2.43–2.63 Nm3/kg, 3.33–4.17 MJ/Nm3 and 51.5%–65.7% respectively. The experimental results showed that the gasification performance was better with the lignite particle size of 22–25 mm.

Abstract

In remote communities where it is not economical and practically possible to take the grid connection, stand-alone small hydro systems can be used to fulfill the energy requirement. Small-scale hydroelectric power systems are emerging as a promising source of renewable energy generation, but they require low cost hydraulic and electric types of equipment to make them economically feasible. In such plants, pumps can be used in turbine mode considering various advantages associated with pump e.g. ease of availability, proven technology, low initial and maintenance cost, availability for a wide range of heads and flows, etc. The efficiency of the pump as turbine (PAT) is usually lower than that of conventional hydro turbines. However, efficiency is not the primary selection criterion for such machines and it is recommended to operate such machines around maximum efficiency point. In the present study, different turbines suitable for micro-hydro power plants are discussed. The historical development of PAT is described. The review of the state-of-the-art of pump running in turbine mode is presented. Different pumps suitable to run in turbine mode for low capacity power generation in micro-hydropower plants as well as in water supply piping systems are discussed. Theoretical, experimental and numerical investigations carried out by different researchers on PAT are reviewed. The research work on PAT including criteria for selection of pump running as turbine, cavitation analysis, force analysis, loss distribution, various methods of performance enhancement, cost analysis of hydropower plant with conventional hydro turbine and PAT, applications of PAT in water supply pipelines, etc. are discussed. The worldwide implementation of PAT and different manufacturers of PAT are described. The limitations in the implementation of PAT, as well as the recommendations to improve the performance of PAT, are described.

Abstract

The feasibility of extraction of phenol rich oil from the bio-oils obtained through pyrolysis of cashew nut shells and sugarcane bagasse is studied. The extraction rate of phenol rich oil using CO2 as a supercritical fluid is discussed. Operating parameters are optimized for the maximum concentration of phenol and cardanol. Higher yield of oil (50% by weight) along with higher concentration of phenols and cardanol by present method is found encouraging. The experiments were conducted in the pressure range of 120–300 bar, the temperature range of 303–333 K and the mass flow rate range of 0.7–1.2 kg/h. The process parameters are optimized to maximize the yield of extracts and its contents of phenols and substituted phenols from sugarcane bagasse pyrolysis oil. The oil samples obtained at various operating parameters are analyzed by Gas Chromatograph–Mass Spectroscopy (GC–MS) and Fourier Transform Infra-Red Spectroscopy (FTIR).

Abstract

A simple mathematical model to characterize the supercritical extraction process has been proposed in this paper. This model is primarily based on two mass transfer mechanisms: solubility and diffusion. The model assumes two districts mode of extraction: initial constant rate extraction that is controlled by solubility and falling rate extraction that is controlled by diffusivity. Effects of extraction parameters such as pressure and temperature on the extraction of oil have also been studied. The proposed model, when compared with existing models, shows better agreement with the experimental results. The proposed model developed has been applied for both high initial oil content material (cashew nut shells) and low initial oil content material (black pepper).

Abstract

This work investigated the extraction of cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). Effects of process parameters such as extraction pressure, temperature and flow rate of SC-CO2 were investigated. The yield of CNSL increased with increase in pressure, temperature and mass flow rate of SC-CO2. However, under different operating conditions, the composition of CNSL varied. The study of physical properties and chemical composition of the oil obtained through super critical fluid extraction (SCFE) showed better quality as compared to the CNSL obtained through thermal route. Experimental results were compared with diffusion based mass transfer model. Based on this simple model, extraction time was optimized.

Abstract

Human-Robot interaction plays a vital role in the service robotics field, especially to support old age-dependent people for socio-economic reasons. In this paper, an indigenous 3D printed 6 DoF robotic arm is proposed to support specially-abled people in their independent-feeding process. The objective of the present paper is to find the combination of optimal positional controllers such as CPID, FC, FPID and FOPID, which can handle the cubic reference input signal and can produce an output signal with minimal overshoot and lesser positional error. The reduced positional error helps the robotic arm to accurately reach the destination with minimal oscillations. This would reduce the wastage of food in the middle of the trajectory as well as at the destination.

Abstract

As a result of continuous depletion of non-renewable energy sources, new methods of harvesting energy are being developed. A unique way of harvesting wind energy, namely Bladeless Wind Turbine (BWT) is discussed in this paper. It differs from conventional turbine by harvesting energy through Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) which is safe and quiet in operation. It has no bearings, gears or any rotating device hence it has low maintenance cost and high life. The scope of BWT as the renewable energy source varies from offshore to wind farms considering the availability of high intensity winds. BWT is a trio of diverse engineering branches: Electrical Engineering, Fluid Dynamics and Mechanics of Solids that often makes it nonlinear as well as complex. This article includes a basis for vortex-induced vibrations, dynamic modelling, components of BWT and energy harvesting unit. Optimum shape to harvest the energy is outlined in combination with mathematical model of the turbine. Various modes to harness vibrational energy, including different orientations and surface extensions, to widen the operating range and increase performance are covered in the review. This paper is a complete outline of BWT which shows the advancement of technology from VIV to commercially available products.

Abstract

In an electronic circuit of laptops, supercomputers with multiple CPUs, spacecraft etc. it is required to arrange the cooling system for multiple heat loads in the smallest possible space in view of power saving opportunities. In the present study, the experimental investigations are carried out on a wickless multi-branch heat pipe in gravity assisted mode with two evaporators and one condenser on each of the individual branches. The start-up and dynamic characteristics were studied with different filling ratios (range: 40 - 70%), with equal heat loads (range: 0-200 W) and unequal heat loads (range: 0 -100 W) on evaporators. The results are analysed in terms of temperature variation in axial direction, thermal resistance and heat transfer coefficient for a multi-branch thermosiphon heat pipe (MBTHP). It was found that the optimal filling ratio depends on the applied heat load under tested condition. In a thermosiphon mode, the heat pipe was capable of transporting maximum heat load of 210 W and maximum heat flux of 20.31 W/cm 2 with the maximum evaporator temperature lower than 100 °C. The minimum wickless thermal resistance of heat pipe was found to be 0.21 °C/W at 50% filling ratio and 160 W and maximum total heat transfer co-efficient was found as 6.33 k W/m2 °C.

Abstract

Composite materials specifically carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) are finding an increased usage in industries like aerospace, marine, automobile, and sport owing to high strength and stiffness properties compared to traditional metals and their alloys. The setup preparation cost and curing time of materials are very high in the autoclave process, different out-of-autoclave (OoA) processes are being developed. The heat transfer fluid (HTF) method for curing is quite possibly the most encouraging technique which is ideal for small-sized components, quick, compact, energy-efficient, and achieves a great reduction in cost and time. This research paper describes the design and development of a novel HTF curing setup for CFRP prepreg. The specimens have been manufactured using the HTF curing process according to ASTM standards. The mechanical properties like tensile and flexural strength have been measured for fabricated test coupons. The results obtained for mechanical properties in the HTF curing process have been compared with samples prepared with autoclave and microwave curing processes. It has been observed that mechanical properties obtained in the HTF curing process are 48% higher than other curing processes because of the presence of less void content and high bonding developed in fibre-matrix during the process. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.

Abstract

The hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) can overcome the problem of the mismatch of supply of variable renewable energies and demand. The optimal sizing of the HRES methodology is implemented by employing the generalized reduced gradient (GRG) method. A case study of HRES with solar, bio, and hydro sources for tribal areas in a hilly region of India is demonstrated. Both the grid-connected scenario and the standalone scenario in island mode are simulated. The optimal LCOE of 0.106–0.053 $/kWh is achieved in standalone mode for 100%–70% reliability. The grid-connected scenario is simulated with two different rates of payment for the electric energy delivered to the grid and a range of grid purchase prices. The LCOE results to around 0.06 $/kWh for the prospective grid-connected mode cases. The sensitivity analysis and validation of the work are also performed.

Abstract

The Hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) has the potential to better match the demand load profile with power by using the complementary nature of the variable renewables. The sizing of the HRES should be done carefully to better match with demand load without oversizing and under-sizing. This study presents the use of the Generalized Reduced Gradient Method to optimize the size of components of HRES. The case study is per- formed to demonstrate the HRES for a remote rural region. Cases of both the standalone and grid-connected modes are explored. The standalone system with reliability from 100% up to 70% is investigated. A grid- connected system is studied with and without payment of power supplied to the grid to explore the feasibility of HRES for different price regimes. The methodology used is validated using HOMER software by comparing its results with HOMER results for the cases considered. Higher renewable share in the standalone systems leads to more need for employments at every stage of the lifecycle of components. In addition to that, the negative environmental impact of the HRES system in comparison to the conventional system is significantly less. It can be concluded that the standalone system proves to be better in terms of job creation and carbon emission. In contrast, grid-connected comes out to be better in terms of reliability and economics.

Abstract

Variability of renewables like solar and wind remains a major concern, despite a substantial decrease in the capital cost of their power conversion devices. One of the methods to improve the reliability of power is to combine more than one renewable power sources and storage systems together, as per the local renewable potential, is called a hybrid renewable energy system (HRES). The exact sizing of individual sources and storage systems to fulfill the respective load demand for the renewable potential of the site is not a straightforward task. Different sizing and optimization methodologies are developed by the research community. A comprehensive overview of the literature of these methodologies is carried out in this paper. Classical techniques were being applied to the HRES sizing, but their limitations led researchers to increasingly look for multi-objective heuristic techniques. This has led to a range of evolutionary algorithms being employed lately. The robustness of these techniques made them an effective tool for the search of global optimum, but their convergence speed may well be slower in comparison to gradient-based methods in the vicinity of the optimum point. It is needed to come up with novel hybrid techniques, which can carefully combine the conventional and evolutionary techniques by augmenting their advantages and at the same time avoiding their shortcomings. The literature survey proves that HRES from very small capacity of a few watts to many megawatts have been proposed for a variety of different locations throughout the world with varying degrees of cost of energy.

Abstract

The biomass has been the choice of the heat source for cooking purposes since ancient times. The inefficient combustion process in traditional cookstoves has its shortcomings in the form of adverse consequences on human health and pollution of the environment. Research and development of improved cookstove, for those who are yet to adopt the cleaner fuels for the cooking, has occupied the scientific community and social workers alike to improve the conditions of these people. Most people who live in urban settings are using natural/petroleum gas or electricity for cooking. On the other hand, a large section of the people living in the hinterlands continue to use traditional cookstoves, which are of low efficiency and create indoor air pollution, which leads to severe health issues. To overcome these issues, many researchers have proposed various designs for improved cookstoves. This paper summarizes the available literature related to different cookstove designs, performance and emissions. The review covers detailed discussion on various parameters to enhance the performance of biomass cookstoves. In addition to that a comparison of different types of cookstoves, different fuels used in them, their efficiency and particulate matter emissions are studied. This paper also explores the possibility of the implementation of additional accessories such as thermoelectric generators.

Abstract

Impinging jet has been an important technique to increase the convection heat transfer coefficient between the fluid and solid in various commercial and industrial application. Variety of different arrangements have been tried and tested for the impinging jet like slot jet, circular jet, etc. depending on the requirements of application and choice of designer. Insights into the flow physics of impinging jet can help in improving the geometric and flow parameters of the impinging jet and thereby performance enhancement in its usage. This paper presents comprehensive review into the modelling, optimisation and numerical studies of the impinging jet literature. In addition to that comparison of different turbulence models applied to the numerical study of impinging jets are also reviewed, as the choice of model used for the study plays a major role in deciding the computational resources required as well as reliability and accuracy of results. The determination of the heat transfer coefficient for impinging jet considering the conductivity of finite thickness plate is essential and many research works in that field are also reviewed. It was concluded that certain parameters in the study of the impinging jet are crucial, so they should be decided with careful consideration.

Abstract

Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is widely accepted for solving multi-phase fluid interaction applications. As it is mesoscale based method, doesn’t require to solve governing equations at every particle unlike to Molecular dynamics-based methods which will make it computationally lesser costlier. In addition, it is also taking care of the physical properties for both the fluids. LBM with multi-relaxation-time (MRT) model is having higher stability and accuracy and hence LBM with MRT based methodology is implemented in this work. LBM based multiphase fluid solver is developed, however in this work only single-phase benchmarking problems are solved in order to validate the proposed solver. 2-D Channel flow in backward facing step and 2-D channel flow over a square cylinder is solved and results are validated through available numerical and analytical solutions available. The Backward-facing step problem is simulated at R_e=800 while the flow over a square cylinder is simulated at two different Reynolds number as R_e=60 &100. Efforts are made to showcase the capabilities and benefits of LB based model in comparison of well-established Navier- stokes based solvers. Numerical results of the proposed work are in good matching with well-established NS based numerical and analytical solutions.

Abstract

The Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is used to model many complex phenomena including turbulent and multi-phase systems nowadays. We implemented Level Set Method coupled with LBM to capture the interface correctly. A novel approach to using the Level Set method on a peculiar dual grid is used for capturing the interface accurately. Hence, LS is solved for a grid with higher resolution to get the required accuracy for the interface and LBE is solved on the single grid which will reduce the computational cost and time. Thus, an optimal in-house code is generated to get the benefit of both LB and LS methods. To capture the multi-phase dynamics, the LBE is modified using a force term that includes the pressure difference at the interface, surface tension force, buoyant force, etc. To validate the proposed work, we chose the 2D Rising Bubble test. Modeling is done using One Fluid implementation, where both the phases are modeled as one fluid with variable properties. D2Q9 lattice scheme is selected for solving the LB at lattice nodes. The property variation is captured using the Heaviside function. Similarly, the surface tension force term is modeled using the Dirac delta function. The Multi Relaxation Time (MRT) scheme is used to convert LBE into Navier- Stokes-based momentum space equations. The problems were solved at various parameters to certify the applicability and accuracy level of the proposed methodology. The rising bubble centroid position, evolution of the bubble, and bubble deformation-circularity were studied and analyzed. Mass error and computational time were observed. The results are compared with NS-based solvers. Accuracy and less computational cost make the proposed work more acceptable in the CFD research community.

Abstract

Solar distillation is very much effective for availing drinkable pot water, especially in desert areas and salt-producing areas. A Solar Still is a device that can be used to convert impure (saline) water into fresh drinking water using the process of Distillation. The energy source used in a Solar Still is sunlight thus it uses renewable energy. This paper describes a set of equations that can be used to find the distillate yield of a solar still by taking input parameters such as Solar Insolation and the basin area. A solar still is used for producing fresh drinking water from impure water and the equations help in estimating the yield. It also determines the efficiency of the solar still.

Abstract

Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is very much popular for fluid flow applications due to its capability of implementing the physics of the problem as well as simple explicit governing equations unlike to implicit Navier- Stokes governing equations. LBM is extensively used in single and multiphase fluid flow problems. LBM based multiphase and multi component fluid flow analysis models have got wide acceptability amongst all CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) tools nowadays. In this paper we propose a LBM based model for Lid driven cavity problem. Main purpose behind our study is to showcase the capabilities and benefits of LB based model against well-established Navier- stokes based solvers. Benchmark problem of Lid driven cavity and 2-D channel flow are solved and numerical results are shown in the paper. Numerical results are in nice agreement with well-established experimental and conventional NS based numerical results.

Abstract

A two stage Gifford-Mc Mahon Cryocoolers are used to produce ultra-low temperatures in the range of 4 K to 40 K in the cryogenics experimentations. Commercially available G-M Cryocoolers have wide range of cooling capacity. Heat transfer analysis has been carried out in the present study on the G-M Cryocooler at no load condition by considering experimental observations as input data. The rated capacity of the G-M Cryocooler is 1.5 W at 4 K temperature. By producing 4 K temperature on the cryocooler at no load condition, the same has been analysed by heat transfer approach. All the modes of heat transfer has been calculated at steady temperature of 4 K with steady vacuum level in the range of 10-5 Torr. The calculated capacity of the Cryocooler has been found near to the rated capacity of 1.5 W at 4 K. The same approach can be made useful to calculate the capacity of ultra-low temperature refrigeration systems.

Abstract

The usage of internal combustion engines is increasing day by day to satisfy human thirst, which has led to consumption of fossil fuel at a drastic level contributing more than 80% human CO2 emission. As we know that the government norms are becoming stringent day by day due to increase in percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere. Reducing the global emissions of the internal combustion engines is a prime focus of this paper by decreasing fuel consumption. Friction in Internal combustion engines is mainly due to constantly abrading parts like Piston, Piston Rings, Cylinder Liner and other engine auxiliaries. Fuel consumption can scaled down by reducing friction between piston ring assembly and cylinder liner, which nearly accounts for approximately 20% of Engine losses. The friction in the ring assembly is mainly due to top ring (compression) friction which is maximum at T.D.C and B.D.C. positions. Friction can be reduced by analysing and experimenting various materials, shapes, sizes, coatings of the piston Rings for Internal Combustion engine. Model prediction indicated that by employing Skewed Barrel Profile with a positive twist, Taper napier Profile with negative twist and tapered ring with negative twist in the first, second and third piston rings grooves respectively reduces a considerable amount of friction of piston rings assembly, ultimately reducing the consumption of fuel and thereby reducing the emissions from internal combustion engines.

Abstract

Flat heat pipes (FHPs) are employed in various industries and applications where efficient heat transfer is required to maintain the operation and reliability of the system such as electronics cooling, aerospace, medical devices, etc. The impact of the shape of flat heat pipes (FHPs) on the effective thermal conductivity of FHP has been experimentally investigated in the present work. The copper-based FHPs were charged with DI water, and a single layer of 100 mesh screen was employed as a wick structure. The FHP was 0.2 m in length, 0.01 m in width, and 0.003 m thick. The four different geometries such as horizontal, L-shaped (3 different orientations), stair-step-shaped, and U-shaped of FHPs were considered. The FHPs’ functioning was evaluated in terms of effective thermal conductivity at different heat levels for fan-assisted forced convection and free convection condenser cooling. The shape and orientation of the FHP affect its thermal behavior in addition to physical and operational qualities. Among all testing runs, the L-shaped FHP with gravity-assisted (condenser at top and in vertical plane and evaporator at bottom and in horizontal plane) configuration at 12-W heat load and free convection condenser cooling achieved the optimum effective thermal conductivity of 9756 W/mK. Comparing all other shapes, the thermal operation of the L-shaped FHP with this configuration was found best for both fan-aided forced convection and free convection condenser cooling.

Abstract

The vacuum tubes are used extensively in electronic industries. The MW level of vacuum tube are used in RF amplifiers and microwave sources in different sectors like defence, nuclear energy, satellites and medical diagnostics. The first step in the indigenous development of MW level of vacuum tube is the design of its cooling jacket. The cooling jacket of vacuum tubes use hypervapotron (HV) fins which are known for providing efficient cooling in compact space. The key objectives of this paper are to finalize the jacket's construction material, evaluate the cooling jacket's heat transfer performance at the MW level of RF (radiofrequency) power, and forecast safe operating conditions for given conditions of high heat flux and water flow rates. In this design, the vacuum tubes' external dimensions are taken into consideration when designing the cooling jacket. ETP copper (Electrolytic Tough Pitch copper) and copper-chromium-zirconium (CuCrZr) are likely materials for the jacket's construction. For the aforementioned design of the cooling jacket, FEA (Finite Element Analysis) simulations using a steady-state thermal module and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations using an ANSYS CFX module are described for flow rates of 15, 30, and 60 lpm (liters per minute) and the heat flux 1, 2, 4, and 6 MW m−2. The results of CFD and FEA simulations are found to be in close agreement. A small deviation in results is seen after the start of nucleate boiling. 30 and 60 lpm are desirable flow rates for high heat flux values greater than 2 MW m−2. CuCrZr is the ideal material for a cooling jacket's construction as it has safe working temperature limit of 350 °C at high heat flux values. Also, 15 lpm flow rate should be avoided while using this cooling jacket at heat flux values greater than or equal to 6 MW m−2.

Abstract

Flat heat pipes (FHPs) are commonly used as a passive cooling system in portable electronic gadgets due to their compact profile. The present study investigates the effect of different working fluids on the thermal performance of a miniature FHP under different orientations and condenser cooling mechanisms and the start-up performance of FHP. Deionized water, acetone, ethanol, and methanol are chosen as working fluids in the FHP. Five different inclinations (0 deg (horizontal), 30 deg, 45 deg, 60 deg, and 90 deg (vertical)) and two different condenser cooling methods (natural convection and forced convection with fan cooling) are considered in this experimental study. The FHP thermal performance is quantified in terms of overall temperature difference, thermal resistance, and effective thermal conductivity. The results indicate that comparatively higher effective thermal conductivity values are obtained for methanol and acetone heat pipes at low heat loads and under natural convection. At higher heat loads, the ethanol heat pipe had higher effective thermal conductivity values for the same condenser cooling method. For the case of the forced convection cooling mode, the methanol heat pipe had enhanced thermal performance as compared to the other three fluids for all heat load ranges and different inclinations. Due to the higher boiling point of water, as a working fluid water is not suitable in most of the experimental trials except at high heat load under forced convection cooling and in a horizontal orientation. The maximum effective thermal conductivity of 7846 W/mK is obtained for FHP filled with methanol at 24 W heat load and 90 deg orientation under forced convection condenser cooling.

Abstract

Pool boiling is extensively used in high- and low-temperature heat exchangers as it results in a high heat transfer coefficient compared to natural and single-phase forced convection. Pool boiling experimental study conducted over a plain cylindrical surface (PS) and four external micro-finned cylindrical surfaces (MFCSs), with R123 and R141b at different pressures in the heat flux range 20–100 kW/m2, is presented in this paper. The objective of the present study is to explore the effect of pressure, surface characteristics, and fluid properties on pool boiling heat transfer over plain and micro-finned cylindrical surfaces. The boiling performance improved at a higher pressure, irrespective of the working fluid used for all the test surfaces. It was found that, with the rise in pressure, the boiling heat transfer coefficient (BHTC) for the MFCSs increases at a higher rate than the PS. In comparison with PS, the average rise in the BHTC with pressure, for the MFCS-1, MFCS-2, MFCS-3, and MFCS-4 with R123 were 69.3% to 84.3%, 3.3% to 9.9%, 16.9% to 22.4%, and 29.4% to 40.2%, respectively. The higher BHTC over micro-finned cylindrical surfaces results due to more nucleation site results from lower surface wettability and micro-finned geometry. It was observed that the pool boiling over the plain surface with R123 results in higher BHTC compared with R141b at all tested pressures, whereas the pool boiling characteristics over MFCSs varied based on the combined effect of micro-finned surface geometry, surface wettability, heat flux, pressure and fluid properties. The bubble departure diameters over all the surfaces were measured at 30 W, 60 W, and 90 W at different pressures, and a new model of bubble departure diameter was proposed based on dimensionless terms. The total mean absolute error (MAE) of the proposed bubble departure diameter model was about 6.79% for the whole range of data points.

Abstract

The miniature flat heat pipe (mFHP) is a promising cooling technique for the thermal control of portable electronic appliances. The thermal behavior of miniature flat heat pipe (mFHP) with graphene-DI water and Al2O3-DI water-based nanofluid is experimentally investigated. The copper-made mFHP has dimensions of 200 mm in length, 10 mm in breadth, and 3 mm in thickness. The effect of nanofluid, tilt angle (0˚, 30˚, 45˚, 60˚ and 90˚), condenser cooling mode (natural convection and forced convection with fan cooling), and heat load on the effective thermal conductivity of mFHP are analyzed in this present work. The results reveal that the mFHP filled with nanofluid as working fluids shows better thermal performance as compared to those with the base fluid alone. The FHP filled with Al2O3-DI water nanofluid achieves the maximum effective thermal conductivity of 6271 W/mK under a heat load of 14 W and 60˚ orientation with natural convection condenser cooling. A heat pipe's wettability and capillary pressure are both enhanced by using nanofluid as the working fluid. As the optimum orientation of mFHP varies based on the combined effect of the type of nanofluid used in FHP, the heat load range, and the method of condenser cooling; hence it is very difficult to obtain its value analytically. Therefore, the experimental findings help in selecting the design parameters of mFHP for suitable applications.

Abstract

The study of pressure drop characteristics in a curved tube is important as it has extensive application in coiled tube heat exchangers, hydraulic and pneumatic systems. The literature review suggests that the pressure drop characteristics at the coil level as well as at local level for the curved tubes with varying curvature i. e. conical spiral tubes require further investigations. The objective of the present work is to investigate the flow resistance characteristics of turbulent fluid flow in conical spiral tubes with uniform wall temperature heating with the numerical simulation approach using ANSYS Fluent. The conical spiral tubes with different curvature and cone taper angle ranging from 10° to 60° were modelled and simulated for the Reynolds number range of 104 to 105. The CFD results reveal that the total pressure drop and the local cross-flow pressure loss coefficient increased with Reynolds number, cone taper angle and curvature ratio. The results also show that the friction factor and the cross-flow coefficient increased significantly in the tube at a cone taper angle of 60° due to an enhancement in the secondary flow and hence the pressure loss. For the given curvature radius and tube diameter of the conical spiral tube there exists an optimum Reynolds number at which the dimensionless cross-flow pressure coefficient has an optimum value. A correlation to predict the friction factor as a function of Reynolds number and cone taper angle is proposed for the turbulent flow in conical spiral tubes. For the usual practically applicable curvature ratio of less than 0.1 in curved tubes, the pressure drop prediction using the proposed correlation is found to be within ±10% of the numerical simulation results.

Abstract

The threat to cryogenic plant safety can be dependent on the extent of tritium contamination in the cryogenic helium circuit. There are some scenarios such as regeneration of cryopumps at high temperature e.g. 300 K and 470 K where tritium can handshake with cryogenic helium. The temperature and upstream partial pressure dependency on permeation are predicted in this paper. It has been found that permeation is dominant at temperatures over 300 K. The results also show that for 100 K regeneration of cryopumps there is no possibility of tritium contamination of the cryogenic helium circuit. However, for regeneration cycles at higher temperature i.e. 300 K and 470 K this can be a serious threat, considering partial or incomplete 100 K regeneration. The results predict that 60% or more efficient (which is easily achievable) 100 K regeneration is safe for complete 300 K regeneration cycles. But, to breach the safety cap i.e. 0.2 G Bq/annum or 5.6 × 10-7 gm/annum, even 11.2 mPa of tritium partial pressure at 470 K will take only 8 regeneration cycles to breach the safety limit of tritium in cryogenic helium. The paper also defines the allowable partial pressure of tritium at 300 K and 470 K regenerations required to avoid any tritium contamination to the cryogenic helium circuit.

Abstract

Bubble-induced vibration is a very crucial aspect in some critical systems like laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory. Recently, laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory detected the gravitational wave produced due to the merger of two black holes. To detect the other universe collision event due to other binary pairs like neutron stars, black holes or combination, the sensitivity of the detector should be very high. The sensitivity depends on the reduction of the noise present in the detector system / components. Liquid nitrogen cryopump is also one of the sources for the noise. This noise has been produced due to the bubble structure interaction. The present work analyzes the bubble generated noise spectrum level and its acoustic effect due to induced vibration. The spectrum levels considering force, acceleration, velocity, and displacement effect have been studied in detail for a thin annular fluid (LN2) filled cylindrical shell. It is assumed that the structure of cylindrical shell is homogeneous as well as isotropic. The noise level generated due to radial force excitation resulting from bubble collision has been found to be in the range of −85 dB to −45 dB at a lower resonance frequency.

Abstract

The present work focuses on the analytical determination of forces acting on a single spherical bubble during detachment due to pool boiling conditions in water and liquid nitrogen (LN2). Forces acting in X & Y directions have been evaluated and compared with that of bubble formation in LN2. Net vertical force existing with the LN2 bubbles after the detachment from the nucleation site has been found to be about one-third of the net force obtained by the vapour bubble in case of water as a working fluid. Also, in case of water, the net horizontal force is about 400% more than the detachment forces obtained for liquid nitrogen bubble. In addition to detaching forces, bubble departure diameter has also been evaluated using different models. It was found that the bubble diameter remains nearly equal for water and liquid nitrogen.

Abstract

Bubble-induced vibration has become vital during recent investigation and advancement in the area of multiphase boiling. The induced vibration phenomenon can be understood with the help of proper and detailed understanding of vapor bubble formation, growth, collapse, and interaction with the surface. The growth mechanism for the formation of bubbles under nucleate boiling conditions is theoretically investigated. This paper also discusses the dynamics of vapor bubbles during flow in subcooled boiling conditions. In the part of the vapor bubble formation, the characteristics of a bubble emerged from the heated surface at a single nucleation site along with the flow boiling phenomena have been considered for analysis. The bubble is considered to be of spherical shape and detached from a heated surface due to the formation of a microlayer of liquid. The fluid is supposed to be static far away from a vapor bubble. Using well-known models of bubble formation and detachment, equations considering various forces acting over a single bubble have been derived. These equations monitor bubble characteristics in a definite manner according to the derived differential equation for energy conservation developed for the two-phase flow system. To illustrate this phenomenon, two bubble formation mechanisms, inertia-controlled and heat transfer-controlled growth have been considered. The present investigation discusses the governing equations for the bubble growth rate, bubble size and frequency, forces, and the well-known Rayleigh's equation. Also, the vibration characteristic has been reviewed, and the two phenomena, i.e., subcooled boiling induced vibration (SBIV) and flow-induced vibration (FIV) have been discussed in brief. The present review paper aims to reveal the latest evaluation done in the area of bubble-induced vibration and to ascertain the contributions made until now as well as the solution to the upcoming issues.

Abstract

The flow analysis inside the centrifugal pump is highly complex mainly due to 3D flow structure involving turbulence, secondary flow, cavitation and unsteadiness. In recent years, a growing availability of computational resources and progress in the accuracy of numerical methods brought turbo machinery Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods from pure research work into the competitive industrial markets. The critical review of CFD analysis of centrifugal pumps along with the future scopes for further improvement is presented in this paper. CFD technique has been applied by the researchers to carry out different investigations on centrifugal pumps viz. performance prediction at design and off-design conditions, parametric study, cavitation analysis, diffuser pump analysis, performance of pump running in turbine mode etc.

Abstract

Experiments were conducted for pool boiling on the outside of 8 × 3 (eight rows and three columns) plain and coated tube (surface roughness = 8.279 μm) bundles for three different pitch distances with the distinct objective to study the behavior and the enhancement of boiling heat transfer in horizontal staggered tube bundles (of plain and coated tubes for different equilateral triangular arrangements) with heat flux values ranging from ∼12 to 45 kW/m2. At higher heat fluxes, coated and plain tube bundles had almost similar bundle average heat transfer coefficients at a given pitch distance, while at lower heat fluxes, the coated tube bundles have higher bundle average heat transfer coefficients as compared to that of the plain tube bundle.

Abstract

The boiling in cross-flow is investigated for coated tubes (low-porosity, flame-sprayed) in this paper. The effect of surface roughness on flow boiling heat transfer for a horizontal tube surface in cross-flow is studied for saturated boiling of water at atmospheric pressure. The parameters varied were for flow velocity up to 3.24 kg/s (G = 258.49 kg/m2 s), heat flux from 12 to 45 kW/m2, surface roughness (Ra) from 0.3296 to 4.731 μm. Nominal enhancement in heat transfer coefficient at higher mass flux may be attributed to the continued nucleation at the uppermost surfaces (in the wake region of the flow) of the rougher tubes thereby increasing the overall heat transfer rate. The flow boiling data was found to best fit the Kutateladze asymptotic equation h = hl[1 + (hnpb/hl)n]1/n with the value of n = 2.258 (which is close to the value of n = 2 suggested by Kutateladze).

Abstract

Muskhelishvili’s complex variable method is used with least square boundary collocation method to derive the stresses in a plate with hole. Generalized formulation is obtained for a square plate with centered circular hole. Plate with two holes and four holes are divided in to numbers of symmetric segments with a single circular hole. Applying different loading conditions and displacement
