Renewable and Alternative Fuelled Diesel Engines

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
India being predominantly agricultural country requires major attention for the fulfillment of energy demands of a farmer. Irrigation is the bottleneck of Indian agriculture, it has to be developed on a large scale, but at the same time diesel fuel consumption must be kept to a minimum level because of the price of diesel and its scarcity. Finding an alternative fuel for diesel fuel is critically important for our nation`s economy and security. The complete substitution of oil imports for the transportation and agricultural sectors is the biggest and toughest challenge for India. Vegetable oils are renewable in nature and can be directly used as fuels in diesel engines. One such potential being non-edible oil extracted from the seeds of Honge oil (Pongamia pinnata). With the use of Honge oil as an alternative to diesel, and biomass derived from Honge tree, a farmer can become self- sufficient in his energy requirements. Moreover, he would also be contributing towards a healthier environment and thereby reducing the dependence of the nation on other countries for oil imports. ····· 10361113689

The convergence of telecommunication, computing, wireless, and transportation technologies facilitates that our roads and highways can be both our communications and transportation platforms. These changes will completely revolutionize when and how we access services, communicate, commute, entertain, and navigate, in the coming future. The specific characteristics of vehicular networks favor the development of attractive and challenging services and applications. In this book we focus on safety applications. Specifically, we develop and evaluate a novel protocol to improve safety on the road. Our proposal combines location information of vehicles, and roadmap scenario characteristics, to improve warning message dissemination. In safety- based applications for vehicular networks our approach is able to reduce the broadcast storm problem while maintaining a high message dissemination effectiveness towards surrounding vehicles. Finally, we assess the performance of our proposed protocol using our enhanced simulation platform, evidencing the importance of an adequate simulation framework to achieve more realistic results and draw more meaningful conclusions. ····· 10361113613

Engines performance

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Inlet air cooling of gas turbine is one of the most probable improvements in power station especially in Egypt. For example in north Cairo power station which has four gas turbines the rating output of one of them is 250 MW but at 45ºc atmospheric temperature the output is 230 MW and at 16ºc atmospheric temperature is 260 MW this different is enough for region as Aswan. The main effect of increasing atmospheric temperature is the decrease of inlet mass flow rate, increasing compressor work and decreeing turbine work .All of these decrease output power. For diesel engine the effect of inlet air temperature is exist but less than gas turbine although the same process occurs in both but in diesel engine the effect of compression is more less than gas turbine and the other process are sophisticated . So we change inlet temperature from 25ºc to 50ºc and we measure the performance of diesel engine at these temperatures. In diesel engine the most benefits is the decreasing of fuel consumption at constant load at decreasing inlet air temperature especially at full load. ····· 10361113268

Kalman Filter Based Integrated Air Data/GPS Navigation System

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This monograph is focused on the improvement of the modern navigation systems. In aeronautics high precision is very essential. Global Positioning System (GPS) has revolutionized the navigation systems. In this study GPS position measurements obtained from a GPS receiver, are improved using Kalman Filter based Satellite Distances method. The GPS receiver provides us with both available satellite positions and the position of the receiver. Using this information in the Kalman Filter a better position compared to the GPS receiver alone was aimed. In the monograph the integration of two navigation systems ADS and GPS was aimed. ADS is a widely used navigation system which measures static and total air pressure and the air temperature. ADS has high sampling frequency and poor accuracy, on the other hand, GPS has high accuracy compared to ADS but lower sampling frequency. Kalman Filter is used to integrate and minimize the errors of the two navigation systems. By this integration a navigation system with high sampling frequency and high accuracy is aimed. Another object is to calculate the wind speed with high accuracy, which is actually the error of Air Speed measured by the ADS. ····· 10361113104

Internal Combustion Engines are universal and find many applications mostly in automobiles and power generation. They are very complex in their working and have many parameters which affect their performance. Thus any further improvements and modifications can be done once we can get values of parameters under all operating conditions. Current technology provides many powerful tools like Digital Modules which when used along with various sensors facilitate the process of gathering these parameters, storing them and then carrying out analysis with help of computers. Our attempt was to incorporate all these devices in making a real-time system with which we can create a simple `Heat Balance Shit` of our test engine for its operating range. ····· 10361113015

Semi-active dampers modeling and control

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This thesis deals with the modeling, control and estimation of semi-active automotive suspensions in order to improve the comfort and roadholding level of the vehicles. The main contribution is a complete observer and controller design methodology, allowing to improve the performance of the vehicle while using a reduced number of sensors. The proposed strategy is based on an observer, a main controller, and local controllers for each suspension. The controllers and observers are synthesized to take the actuators limitations and their bandwidth into account. The H synthesis method, applied to Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems is used to develop the controllers. This formulation, applied to the damper models, allow to take their nonlinearities into account during the synthesis. Furthermore, the H method suits this application, since the suspensions performance specifications are generally given in the frequency domain. Various experimental results are given and commented for the observer, and some simulations are presented for the vehicle controllers. ····· 10361102116

The continuing quest for aluminum castings with enhanced mechanical properties for applications in the automotive industries has intensified the interest in Al Si alloys. However, the commercial application of these materials depends on the control of the structure of the shape and distribution of the eutectic silicon particles in the matrix, as also by the intermetallics phases that occur upon solidification. Thus, the book was designed with the aim of understanding how alloying elements, trace elements, and heat treatment influence changes in the microstructure and, consequently, the performance of hypoeutectic and near-eutectic Al-Si alloys. Microstructural examination was carried out using optical microscopy, image analysis, and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), wavelength dispersive spectroscopic (WDS) analysis facilities. By examining the mechanical properties of Al-Si alloys in conjunction with microstructure this book provides a valuable description of the development and behaviour of these materials ····· 10361101901

`As the current economic condition of the country places increasing stress on the public s finances, elected officials are demanding that public transportation agencies effectively prioritize projects, and show that their expenditures are achieving their intended outcomes. At the same time, the continued reduction in transportation funding has led to growing traffic congestion, as increases in road mileage is not keeping pace with traffic demand. The combination of these trends has placed a tremendous burden on roadway agencies to effectively defend their congestion management programs and congestion relief project selection. Dr. Qu s book answers key questions about the use of travel time performance measures for project selection and performance reporting. Her book shows that local differences in the definition of congestion do not significantly effect the selection of projects so long as congestion is defined equally among all potential projects. This removes a key objection to the use of travel time performance measures in project identification and selection, and allows the next leap forward in the use of performance measures.` Mark Hallenbeck, Director, TRAC-UW ····· 10361100377

Every developed nation on earth had a gradual development where the agriculture sector is developed first then Industry, services and finally tourism. Western world had an advantage of this gradual development. This makes them very influential even in modern era. But in India as part of colonisation the westerners brought the industrial development. And India had an uneven growth in different sectors even today. Service sector has overtaken all other industries over there. These factors cost the Country doing a fatal error of neglecting the manufacturing. Since no original product was manufactured there was no requirement for a new design. This cost us loosing the link between the traditional design and the modern mass-produced products. It is very important to find the missing link and to re-establish the evolution of design. Here is an attempt to validate if Indian design is applied to transportation design. ····· 10361100318
