Performance analysis of wind turbine using wind lens technology

Wind power generation is proportional to the third power of the wind speed as per available thesis and mathematics. Wind energy is converted into electricity using wind turbine. According to the present design available of wind turbine, only 50% of kinetic energy of wind is converted into useful power output. If we are able to concentrate more wind energy over the turbine blade then the power output of wind turbine can be increased effectively. To embody this, scenario, a simple brimmed ring structure which intentionally creates turbulence behind the turbine blade to draw more air flow into the turbine is added externally at the periphery of the blade. This structure effectively increases the speed of the wind turbine leading to higher energy output from the wind turbine.

Vicinity Monitor using Internet of Things

Internet of things is the technology that has been getting very popular lately so much so that it is powering a big translation in the business models and allowing them to drive their way towards Automation. Putting it straight, Internet of things basically is a network of devices like our vehicles and electrical appliances and software and network connectivity that enables these devices to share data about their status. What it enables the developers to do is to control them remotely. By the year 2020, 260 million devices will be IOT enabled according to Gartner. One of the key areas where internet of things is found to be more helpful is Monitoring. Being able to remotely get information about something or the status of something opens the gate for a large number of applications. Motivated by the goal of achieving clean air in our surroundings, this paper discusses the IoT technologies available that enables us to remotely monitor the air quality of a distant place. Furthermore, this paper contributes by introducing Vicinity Monitor, a sensors based air quality, flames and temperature monitoring project that enables its users to get this information on their Android device remotely. And finally putting forward the advantages, challenges and future scope of this project. We aim to make our contribution to the sustainable world with this research.

Smart cane for visually impaired people

Visually impaired people find difficulties detecting obstacles in front of them, during walking in the street, which makes it dangerous. Smart cane for visually impaired comes as a proposed solution to enable them to identify the world around. It is used for the smart navigation for visually impaired people in indoor and outdoor environment respectively. In this, we propose a solution, represented in a smart cane with the ultrasonic sensor to detect any other obstacles in front of the user, which is close enough. Moreover, another sensor i.e. water sensor is placed at the bottom of the stick for the sake of avoiding puddles. This proposed system uses the ATMEGA16 328 micro-controller embedded system and buzzer.

Experiment study on the use of varying percentage of silica fume with cement and natural aggregate with recycled coarse aggregate in concrete

Natural aggregate is used in larger quantities from natural resources it makes the big problem in future. For less use of natural aggregate, the availability of demolished concrete for use as the recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) is increasing. Using this waste concrete as RCA conserves natural aggregate, reduces the quantities of landfills, decreases energy consumption and can provide in less cost. However, there are still many questions on the beneficial use of RCA in concrete pavements.The aim of this research is to find the possibility of the structural usage of recycled aggregate concrete is mixed with natural aggregates, based on better understanding of the behavior of recycled aggregate in concrete structures experimenting fresh and hardened concrete, mixtures containing recycled aggregates. The literature review provides an overview of sustainability, the material properties of RCA both as an aggregate and in concrete, concrete mixture and designs with RCA, the performance of used RCA pavements, and the implementation of RCA highlighting some examples where RCA has been used successfully. Use of recycled aggregate (RA) in concrete is very useful for environmental protection and economic terms. Recycled aggregates are the construction materials for the future. Recycle concrete aggregate is giving little lower strength than natural aggregate concrete. Though, if it is used up to 20% of replacement by weight than it can give almost same strength to that of natural aggregate concrete. Hence it was very important to improve the strength of recycled aggregate concrete for higher recycled aggregate content.Hence silica fume used for strength improvement material.

Case Study

Energy management system for smart home using IoT

One of the major attributes of the Smart home automation and energy management systems integrate IOT and renewable energy resources at the consumption premises. With the advancement of Automation technology, today‟s world prefers Automatic systems over manual systems. This paper presents the design, implementation, and testing of an embedded system using Arduino that integrates solar energy resources and energy management into a smart home incorporated with IOT. The proposed system provides and manages a smart home energy requirement by installing renewable energy and scheduling the power flow during peak and off-peak period. IOT (Internet of things) is the latest and emerging internet technology. Internet of things is a growing network of the everyday object-from industrial machine to consumer goods that can share the sensors information to the Automation system using WIFI communication. IoT is a system that uses computers or mobile devices to control all home functions and features automatically through the internet. In addition to that, a two-ways is developed to enable the homeowner and the utility provider to better optimization of the energy flow and the consumption efficiency. A prototype for the proposed system was designed, implemented and tested using a controlled load bank to simulate a scaled random real house consumption behavior.

Determination of feasible central location for meeting from multiple geopoints

In recent years smartphone has become most important gadget for maintaining the daily activities and it also used by maximum population worldwide. Use of smart mapping technology is also increasing in the large area like transportations, defense, sports, etc. Mapping applications always depend upon current detection or preferred location of a user or the group. Sharing location among the group is the better solution to know the individual's location. Considering the condition any group wants to arrange a meeting at the location which suits all the members hence it will always better to find the centroid of the polygon generated by user geo-locations. The proposed system aimed at finding the preferred and central location for user group using geo-point calculation and mapping technologies. The proposed system will provide a location-based service. This system will provide the central location or the location which is nearer to all users by using great circle algorithm and users location will be determined by using Google map API and GSM. Location privacy is the ability to prevent other parties from learning one’s current or past location.
