Experimental Investigations on Solid Desiccant Cooling System
Space cooling has become a necessity in present climatic conditions. A considerable fraction of today’s energy consumption is due to air conditioning of buildings, involving both heating and cooling. Maintaining comfortable indoor conditions in office building and industrial environments, it results higher energy bills due to heavy dependency on electrically operated air conditioning systems. Energy […]
Experimental Investigation of Solar Water Heater Integrated with a Nanocomposite Phase Change Material
This present work contributes to the improvement in thermal energy storage capacity of an all glass evacuated tube solar water heater by integrating it with a phase change material PCM and with a nanocomposite phase change material NCPCM .. Paraffin wax as PCM and a nanocomposite of paraffin wax with 1.0 mass GeO2 nanoparticles as […]
A Comprehensive Review of Possibility using Solar Energy for Electricity Generation in Libya
Libya suffers from electricity shortages, and many challenges will have to be overcome to meet future increases in electrical demands. The deficiency of electricity generation in Libya is clearly manifested in the fact that demand on electricity still exceeds its supply as blackouts become more frequent. In peak demand time, blackouts and outages are the […]
Determination of Range of Splash of Testing Fluid during Hydro Testing of Knife Gate Valve
There are certain trivial experimental findings which may not have a major significance but their execution is considered to be of such a nature as to complete the study in the specified area. Likewise in the field of hydro testing of valves and flow equipment, there is a basic requirement of operation of the same […]
The cost of fuel and materials in all sectors is rising day by day. In the IC engine, the engine fails primarily because the heat transfer from the cylinder wall to the ambient air is inadequate. Heat is derived from the cylinder wall in the engine by means of convection heat transfer through the fins. […]
