Structuring senses- The impact of design on human mind

Senses, the only information input media, play a mediating role between the built spaces and their experiences by the users. These spaces act as a stimulus on the senses of its users, the response to which is initially generated by the ‘non-conscious’ mind of the user; eventually leading to a like or dislike towards space. Architecture is all about experience created in a space, the look, feel and aesthetics; the success of which is measured by the time a user spends appreciating the space. Structuring senses, as the name puts forward, is a study that focuses upon the relationship between a space structure and its impact on the sensory media of the users, aiming to establish a balance and reduce the gap between the design intent and the design product. This declaration shall point towards an exchange of dialogue between a person and space.

Antifungal activity of Pseudomonas fluorescens against Rhizoctonia solani under in vitro condition

Rice is a major food crop in India which is affected by both biotic and abiotic stresses. Rice is infected by many diseases that are caused by fungi, bacteria, and virus. Among them, Rhizoctonia solani is an important pathogen which causes a major yield loss in rice. The application of chemicals hazardous to humans causing environmental pollution. Hence, in order to reduce these problems, there is a need for sustainable agriculture using natural resources to compact the diseases. In the present study, The PGPR Pseudomonas were collected from different places and were evaluated against the Rhizoctonia solani under in vitro conditions. Among the five isolates, Pf1 showed the highest reduction percentage against the pathogen.

Thermodynamic analysis and performance of SRC and ORC power generation systems using waste heat source

In this work mathematical models of Steam Rankine Cycle (SRC) and Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power systems have been developed to explore the feasibility that combines the fluid-flow temperature, waste heat steam and low-boiling-point organic working fluids for power generation. The effects of the thermodynamic parameters on the SRC and ORC performance are examined. Among the commonly available working fluids, a selection based on environmental and technical criteria was carried out resulting in a list of 8 working fluids: R143a, R245fa, R600a, R124, R134a, RC318, R236fa, and Ammonia. Using the numerical models, we calculate and compare thermal efficiency, generating capacity, etc. of two power systems, namely SRC and ORC under the same heat source conditions. The results show that under the same condition of heat source, ORC has the highest thermal efficiency and power generation.

Implementation of automated wind power generation system on Indian highway

Wind energy has been the subject of research in the field of power generation. As the population increases and energy demand increases, renewable energy sources such as wind can be used to generate electricity with proper technology. To make the traditional method more efficient, i.e. Horizontal wind turbine axis, experimental research has shown that for low wind conditions vertical axis wind turbine can be used. The omnidirectional vertical axis wind turbine uses less space and higher power output. Since the rollers used in earlier models lead to a high loss of friction, we make use of magnetic levitation. We propose this design model with two steps, each with three blades in each stage. The blades are savonius type blades. Power generation is done using a pulley and belt system with the help of a DC motor.

Review Paper

A review on thermodynamic analysis and performance of SRC and ORC power generation systems using waste heat source

The development of the world today has largely been achieved through the increasingly efficient and extensive use of various forms of energy. Over the past decades, the growth in energy consumption around the world has shown that fossil fuel energy source alone will not be capable of meeting future energy demands. With the increase in fossil fuel consumptions, more and more industrial activities produce an increasing amount of waste heat. Energy generated as a result of industrial activities that are not practically utilized is referred to as industrial waste heat. Several studies have shown that the specific amount of industrial waste heat is poorly measured, it is estimated that 25 to 55% of the input energy in industries are actually used while the remaining are discharged as waste heat.

Automated wet waste composting system for wet waste material

Composting is the acceleration of the natural process of breakdown of the organic material into a more stable organic substance. This paper focuses on the aerobic composting method. In the presence of oxygen, microorganisms consume organic matter and release heat and carbon dioxide; resulting in compost. This document addresses a composting plan and recommendations for AUI. After analyzing the background, the waste stream, the restrictions and the methods that will be used; a composting tumbler has been made in order to convert AUI’s organic waste into compost
