Abstract

In this paper, a new approach to generate the modified ideal diode factor of solar cells was developed which overcomes the problem of assuming its value a constant. Five models were employed to calculate the five-model parameters of one standard solar cell and fourteen DSSCs with varying photosensitizers. The results exhibit the conversion efficiencies of the solar cells studied lies in the range 2.57% ≤ η ≤ 0.03%. In particular, the standard cell has the highest efficiency 3.02% followed by DSSCs with photosensitizers: bitter gourd (2.57%), mango (1%), and bougainvillea (0.83%). Also, the five model parameters calculated are all positive for El Tayyan model and the rest of the models show discrepancies of varying degrees. Furthermore, despite the existence of these discrepancies, the results reveal good fit between the model data and experimental data I-V curves. This suggests the tendency or possibility that irregular parameters may be desirable for some applications. Thus, the discrepancies found in the estimated parameters can serve as a vital assessment criterion and tool for researchers and engineers in selecting the appropriate parameter estimation method for their applications. Keywords: Analytical methods, Mathematical modeling, DSSCs, Photosensitizers, Irregular parameters, Conversion efficiency.

Abstract

The pulse oximetry device has been used for decades to monitor human pulse rate and oxygen saturation. There are two types of pulse oximetry which are transmission and reflection based. However, most devices are unsuitable for daily health monitoring due to the bulkiness and inconvenience of long-term monitoring while continuously doing everyday activities. Therefore, developing a wearable device such as a patch would benefit the users. Several factors can be considered for such a system. One of them is the distance between the source and detector since both are the major components of this system. However, there is still a lack of information in this regard. This study used the ray-tracing Monte Carlo method to simulate transmittance and reflectance-based oximetry principles with a 663 nm wavelength as the light source. The results show the ray tracing behavior from the light source to the photodetector in the biological tissue under two different structures mentioned previously. The separation between the light source and the detector should be less than 3 mm for the reflection type. A significant difference was observed for a distance greater than 3 mm compared with the transmission-based, which has a higher photocurrent even at a 7 mm distance. However, this transmission-based device is limited to the placement of the device on the body part. It is due to the thickness, which varies depending on the body parts themselves. Therefore, wearable pulse oximetry devices with the reflectance-based principle are better due to higher signal acquisition than the transmittance-based, especially for the daily health monitoring system. Furthermore, it also can be used throughout any body part. This reflection-based device can fully utilize microfabrication to integrate the light source and photodetector.Keywords: PPG sensor, Monte Carlo, tissue optics, pulse oximetry, photoplethysmography.

Abstract

Bandung nuclear area is an area which is nuclear reactor named TRIGA 2000 and research laboratory located. The reactor and research laboratory are utilized for training, researching and radioisotopes production that has potential to contaminate the environment. Environmental radioactivity monitoring is done periodically to find out potential radioactive release from activities inside Bandung nuclear area to surroundings. However, the assessment of radiological hazards to determine the potential radiological dangers to humans and environment around Bandung nuclear area is not done yet. The objective of this study is assessing the radiological hazards in Bandung nuclear area by comparing the data from soil samples taken in environment radiological monitoring activity with the recommendation data based on UNSCEAR and other references to find out the radiological hazards that potentially affect to humans, where this assessment has never been carried out in this area. The assessment of radiological hazards in this study is limited to Ra-226, Th-232 and K-40 nuclides because contributing to radiation dose received by human. The study was conducted by collecting soil samples from several sampling points inside and outside Bandung nuclear area. Then, the nuclides of Ra-226, Th-232 and K-40 contained in soil samples are measured by using the gamma-ray spectrometry method with high resolution detector that is HPGe (High Purity Germanium) and a computer-based Multichannel Analyzer (MCA). The results indicated that the concentration of environmental radioactivity ranged between 11.02 to 32.66 Bq/kg for Ra-226; 19.44 to 43.83 Bq/kg for Th-232 and 56.00 to 183.39 Bq/kg for K-40. This study also obtained results that the radiological hazard of the gamma dose rate ranged from 23.54 to 40.23 nGy/h, the radium equivalent was 51.77 to 89.78 Bq/kg; the external hazard index was 0.14 to 0.24 and the internal from 0.18 to 0.33; the index of radioactivity level was 0.37 to 0.63. The annual effective dose equivalent for outdoor ranged from 0.03 to 0.05 mSv/y and indoor was 0.12 to 0.20 mSv/y. The lifetime cancer risk for outdoors ranged from 0.10x10–3 to 0.17x10–3 and indoor was 0.4x10–3 to 0.69x10–3. The values of radiological hazard were below the international requirements. There is no potential risk of natural radiation of gamma ionizing radiation exposure in soil samples around the Bandung nuclear area for workers, the public, and the environment.Keywords: Environment, Radiological, Hazard, Gamma, Spectrometry.

Abstract

Mo-99 isotope production calculation in the ICMSR (Innovative Compact Molten Salt Reactor) with the computer code MCNP6 has been carried out. ICMSR is a conceptual design of the MSR type reactor that uses NaF-ThF4-UF4 fuel with an enrichment of 235U of 19.75%. This reactor operates in thermal neutron spectrum with a graphite moderator. ICMSR is a power reactor that produces Mo-99 as a by-product. Calculations carried out for 12 days of operation show that the reactor condition is still critical so that there will be no intervention from refueling. The total Mo-99 produced until the 12th day is 9.118 x 106 Ci. Mo-99 can be extracted from the reactor as long as the power reactor is operating so it will be economically advantageous.Keywords: 99Mo, isotope production, ICMSR, MCNP, criticality
