Heat dissipation is an important issue in compactness and weight of equipment. Heat dissipaters are not only chosen for their thermal performance but also for other design parameters such as weight, cost and reliability depending on applications. The present paper reports an experimental study to investigate the heat transfer enhancement over vertical rectangular fin arrays equipped with lateral circular perforations. The cross‐sectional area of the rectangular duct was 200 mm × 80 mm. The data used in performance analysis were obtained experimentally for aluminum at 200 Watts heat input, by varying the fin thickness, size of perforations and varying Reynolds number range 2.1 × 104 to 8.7 × 104. Using the Taguchi experimental design method, optimum design parameters and their levels were investigated. Average Nusselt number was considered as a performance characteristics. An L9 (33) orthogonal array was selected as an experimental plan. Optimum results were found by experimenting with porosity, Reynolds number and thickness of the fin. It is observed that the Reynolds number and maximum porosity have a larger impact on Nusselt number. 相似文献
A jaw-like bis-porphyrin (bis-TPP) molecule was synthesized anchoring of two porphyrin molecules to a benzene ring at the meta positions through the ester linkage. The bis-TPP molecule and its zinc-derivative (Zn-bis-TPP) were spin-coated on glass surfaces to construct two chemiresistive room temperature NH3 gas sensors. Both the films showed high selectivity, reproducibility and reversibility in sensing NH3 gas (5–40 ppm) in air. The sensing characteristics of the Zn-bis-TPP films (response (2 s) and recovery (2.5 min) times; linear response (952%)) were better than that of the bis-TPP films (response (8 s) and recovery (7.5 min) times; linear response (131%)). This is attributed to the amorphous nature of the former. 相似文献
A new, simple and highly selective method for spectrophotometric determination of selenium in waste water samples is described. Selenium(IV) oxidizes I(-) ions into I(2) which subsequently reacts with excess of I(-) ion in the acidic media to give tri-iodide ions (I(3)(-)), and it further reacts with cetylpyridinium cation (CP(+)) to give a violet colored species. The value of molar absorptivity of the ion-associate species in terms of selenium is 1.80 x 10(4) L mol(-1)cm(-1) at lambda(max) 510 nm. The detection limit of the method is 10 ng mL(-1) Se. The calibration curve is linear over 50-1000 ng mL(-1) Se with slope, intercept and co-relation coefficient of 0.23, -4.0 x 10(-4) and +0.99, respectively. None of the tested diverse ions interfered in the present method. The method has been tested for the determination of selenium in waste water samples. 相似文献
A novel and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of molybdenum at trace levels in environmental and biological samples is proposed. The method is based on the reaction of Mo (V) with thiocyanate (SCN(-)) and methyltrioctyl ammonium chloride (MTOAC) in acidic medium. The red colored complex of molybdenum is extracted with N-phenylbenzimidoyl thiourea (PBITU) in 1-pentanol for its determination by spectrophotometry. The sensitivity of the present method is higher than other conventional thiocyanate method, due to the use of MTOAC in liquid-liquid extraction. The value of molar absorptivity of the complex with respect to molybdenum is 7.6x10(4)Lmol(-1)cm(-1) at 470nm. The limit of detection of the metal is 5ngmL(-1). The system obeys Beer's law between 20 and 1000ngmL(-1) with slope, intercept and correlation coefficient values of 0.81, 2.5x10(-3) and +0.999, respectively. Most of the metal ions tested did not interfere in the determination of molybdenum. The proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination of the molybdenum in environmental and biological samples. 相似文献
The development of low density and broadband microwave absorbers are the need of the hour to cater for the needs of all military platforms for stealth technology. The low density and broadband properties can be inculcated in microwave absorbers using dielectric lossy materials (e.g. carbon fibres, carbon nanotubes, carbon black, fullerene, graphite, graphene and silicon carbide fibre). Therefore, we designed low density and heat resistant microwave absorbing materials (MAMs) using a novel approach of ceramic fibre board manufacturing technology. The microwave absorbing composites were prepared with varying percentage of milled carbon fibres, discontinuous aluminosilicate fibres and silicone resin as the matrix. The physico-mechanical properties of microwave absorbing composites were determined. Reflection loss of microwave absorbing composites was measured in the frequency range 2–18 GHz by unique single horn interferometry technique. The electromagnetic properties were measured in X-band using free space measurement system. Based on these properties the effect of thickness on the microwave absorbing properties in X-band was simulated The effect of weight % variation of milled carbon fibres on the microwave absorbing properties of composites have been studied in the frequency range 2–18 GHz. 相似文献
The growth of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) becomes the backbone of all smart IoT applications. Deploying reliable WSNs is particularly significant for critical Internet of Things (IoT) applications, such as health monitoring, industrial and military applications. In such applications, the WSN’s inability to perform its necessary tasks and degrading QoS can have profound consequences and can not be tolerated. Thus, deploying reliable WSNs to achieve better Quality of Service (QoS) support is a relatively new topic gaining more interest. Consequently, deploying a large number of nodes while simultaneously optimizing various measures is regarded as an NP-hard problem. In this paper, a Grey wolf-based optimization technique is used for node deployment that guarantees a given set of QoS metrics, namely maximizing coverage, connectivity and minimizing the overall cost of the network. The aim is to find the optimum number of appropriate positions for sensor nodes deployment under various p-coverage and q-connectivity configurations. The proposed approach offers an efficient wolf representation scheme and formulates a novel multi-objective fitness function. A rigorous simulation and statistical analysis are performed to prove the proposed scheme’s efficiency. Also, a comparative analysis is being carried with existing state-of-the-art algorithms, namely PSO, GA, and Greedy approach, and the efficiency of the proposed method improved by more than 11%, 14%, and 20%, respectively, in selecting appropriate positions with desired coverage and connectivity.
Spectral convertors are promising materials for solar cells as they engineered the band gap necessary for suppressing the losses. Existing spectral convertors have small stokes shift which exerts re-absorption losses due to the overlap of spectrum and limits light catching ability. Here we present large stoke shift chromium doped rhombohedral Al2O3: Cr3+ as a spectral convertor from UV–VIS to red region as single doped with maximum coverage of solar spectrum in UV region. The large stoke shifts in red region around 694 nm originate from 2Eg to 4A2g and broad absorption originates from \(^{{\text{4}}}{{\text{A}}_{{\text{2g}}}}{ \to ^{\text{4}}}{{\text{T}}_{{\text{1g}}}},{{\text{ }}^{\text{4}}}{{\text{A}}_{{\text{2g}}}}{ \to ^{\text{4}}}{{\text{T}}_{{\text{2g}}}}\). This broad absorption (300–600 nm) and large stokes shift emission at 694 nm suggest that the Cr3+ dopant rhombohedral Al2O3 is well suited as spectral convertors for enhancing the efficiency of the solar cell through better matching of spectral response with spectral distribution of light striking on the solar cell. 相似文献
