Abstract

When drilling in hard rock formations, the wear of the complex curved PDC bit is extremely uneven. To solve this problem, a numerical simulation method was used to analyze the load distribution law of the cutters and the crown shape of the complex curved PDC bit was optimized. The simulation results showed that: 1) along the radial direction of the bit, the axial load on the cutters increased first and then decreased, while the radial load decreased first and then increased; 2) the axial load on the cutters was the largest at the nose and taper area of the bit, while the radial load on the cutters was the largest at the center and shoulder area of the bit; 3) the influence of the inner cone angle on the cutting load was mainly concentrated in the bit crown's inner cone area, while the influence of the outer arc radius on the cutting load was mainly concentrated in the bit crown nose and taper areas. Based on these conclusions, the crown shape of the complex curved PDC bit was optimized and a field test was carried out. The test results showed that, compared with the original complex curved PDC bit, the average bit life and drilling efficiency of the new designed bit was increased by 20% and 18%, respectively, especially in hard rock drilling. The average drilling efficiency of the new designed bit was increased by 50%.

Abstract

The grinding process is necessary to convert original coal bottom ash (CBA) into a powder form. The aim of this study is to evaluate the grinding process effects on physical properties of CBA, it influences on consistency and setting time of cement paste and to predict it potentiality based on chemical characteristics to reduce the alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in concrete. The CBA is the by-product of coal based thermal power plant. Due to high production of electricity in Malaysia, the excess amount of CBA has been produced annually and it causes the environmental problems. Therefore, it is necessary to come up with advanced solutions for that pollution. This study considered the different grinding periods i.e. 2, 10, 20, and 40hrs as to produce different particle fineness. It was perceived through the laboratory findings that the more the grinding period, finer the particle sizes. Besides that, cement paste with 10, 20 and 30% of ground CBA as a substitute of ordinary portland cement (OPC) by weight was prepared, it was observed that the consistency of OPC paste increases with the addition of ground CBA. Moreover, initial and final setting time of cement paste containing ground CBA was observed higher than the OPC paste. Hence, based on experimental analysis and energy efficiency scenario, grinding period of 20hrs with specific surface area 3835.75 cm2/g is suggested for the future studies.

Abstract

Three partially pre-stressed interior beam-column sub-assemblages (SI) and two partially pre-stressed exterior beam-column sub-assemblages (SE) made of reactive powder concrete as test specimens were numerically modeled using a finite element program. The objective of this study was to investigate the behavior of the SI and SE numerical models. The numerical model inputs were: material data, details of test specimen dimensions, and test specimen reinforcements. The numerical models were subjected to the same loads as those applied experimentally. The numerical modeling results were hysteretic and backbone curves and stress distribution contours. The numerical model outputs showed good similarity with the experimental results. The stress distribution contours of the numerical models correlated with the crack patterns in the joint zone of the test specimens. The behavior of the SI numerical models differed from the SE numerical models due to various stresses on the beam plastic joints and the joint zones.

Abstract

This paper presents the application of an improved firefly algorithm (IFA) for minimizing total electricity generation fuel cost while all loads are supplied by thermal generating units. The proposed IFA was developed by combining two proposed improvements of the firefly algorithm (FA), i.e. improvement of the distance between two considered solutions and improvement of the new-solution production technique. The effect of each proposed improvement on the conventional firefly algorithm (FA) and the performance of IFA were investigated in two study cases, i.e. single- and multi-fuel option based thermal generating units. In the first case, three different systems with three, six and twenty units were employed, while a ten-unit system with four different loads was tested in the second case. The comparison results between IFA and existing methods, including three other FA variants, revealed that the two proposed improvements of FA are very efficient and make IFA a very promising meta-heuristic algorithm for minimizing fuel cost of thermal generating units.

Abstract

Vapor compression cooling systems are widely used in hot and dry climates where the atmospheric temperature in summer reaches around 48 °C and the relative humidity can be below 20%. These cooling systems normally use environmentally friendly gases that do not harm the ozone layer. These systems work with high gas pressure, which consumes high energy and leads to a low coefficient of performance when compared to cooling systems that do not use an environmentally friendly gas. Theoretical and experimental studies have been conducted to find a suitable solution for the performance improvement of this type of cooling system. A possible solution is to lower the temperature of the air before it enters the condenser of the compression cooling system by passing it through a wet pad. The water evaporates due to the latent heat that is withdrawn from the wet pad. The air temperature is reduced to about 11 °C before it enters the condenser of the compression cooling system. This enhancement increases the cooling capacity of the vapor compression cycle by nearly 20% and increases the coefficient of performance by 15%, in addition to reducing the consumed electricity up to 15%. In conclusion, the proposed method of adding a wet pad can significantly enhance the performance of the vapor compression cooling system.

Abstract

Cassava is a carbohydrate source with high productivity per hectare of plantation. Cassava is made into flour to extend its shelf life. However, traditional flour still has low quality due to its yellowish color and distinct odor. Fermented cassava flour (FERCAF) is produced by fermentation of cassava chips in a circulated retting fermenter by using a combination of Lactobacillus plantarum, Bacillus subtilis, and Aspergillus oryzae, followed by drying and milling. This process has been used successfully to produce flour with a white color and a neutral aroma. To enable industrial scale production and market introduction, the quality deterioration and shelf life of packaged FERCAF should be determined. The objective of this research was to investigate the effect of storage time and packaging type on the physicochemical properties and to determine shelf life of packaged FERCAF. FERCAF was stored in a controlled-incubator over 94 days using two packaging types: LDPE plastic and kraft paper. Based on the result, the number of microorganisms over 94 days of storage was within safe limits. The average estimated shelf life of packaged FERCAF was in the range of 3-4 months at ambient temperature. The shelf life of FERCAF packaged in LDPE plastic was approximately 15 days longer than that packaged in kraft paper.

Abstract

This paper introduces an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for tracking SEDC motor speed in order to optimize the parameters of the transient speed response by finding out the perfect training data provider for the ANFIS. The controller was adjusted using PI, PD and PIPD to generate data sets to configure the ANFIS rules. The performance of the ANFIS controllers using these the different data sets was investigated. The efficiencies of the three controllers were compared to each other, where the PI, PD, and PIPD configurations were replaced by ANFIS to enhance the dynamic action of the controller. The performance of the proposed configurations was tested under different operating situations. Matlab's Simulink toolbox was used to implement the designed controllers. The resultant responses proved that the ANFIS based on the PIPD dataset performed better than the ANFIS based on the PI and PD data sets. Moreover, the suggested controller showed a rapid dynamic response and delivered better performance under various operating conditions.

Abstract

Solar energy is a source of free and clean energy that has no harmful environmental effects. Simple applications of new technologies such as nanotechnology are a cost-effective way of using renewable energy, which has led many industries to invest in this area. In this descriptive-analytical study the utilization of solar energy in a hot and dry region of Iran was investigated as a useful and safe resource for supplying the energy needed for the construction of Parand town, considering the available climatic potentials. The statistical population in this study was a group of inhabitants of Parand town, employees of the Tehran Construction Engineering Organization and experts in the field, from which 384 participants were selected by simple random sampling. After collecting field information through a questionnaire, the relationships between the variables of the study were tested by SPSS. The result of the study showed that the most important achievements of using nanotechnology for solar energy in view of the sustainable development of building construction from the participants' perspective were photovoltaic coating on building roofs (58.7% of the participants' responses), nano solar water heaters (57.4% of responses) and active solar cell dryers (22.1% of responses) respectively.

Abstract

An investigation was conducted to analyze and compare the properties of bacterial cellulose (BC) films dried using microwave and air convection heating. Prior to the drying process, 90% of the water content inside the BC pellicles was removed through vacuum filtration. After that, the required drying time was only 3-5 min using microwave heating, 95% shorter than that observed for air convection heating. The properties of the BC sheets were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), color difference meter, and tensile tester machine. The results showed that the structure of the BC films was the same for the BC films dried by microwave and air convection heating, i.e. cellulose I, as observed from FTIR spectra and XRD diagrams. Moreover, their color (L*, a*, and b* values) and mechanical properties were also almost identical. However, a slightly lower crystallinity and a higher swelling degree were observed for the BC film dried using microwave heating. These results suggest that microwave heating could be an alternative method of drying BC pellicles in order to shorten the processing time and reduce energy consumption when compared to air convection heating.
