Experimentally Identify the Effective Plume Chimney over a Natural Draft Chimney Model

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
The demands of energy are in increasing order due to rapid industrialization and urbanization. The researchers and scientists are working hard to improve the performance of the industry so that the energy consumption can be reduced significantly. Industries like power plant, timber processing plant, oil refinery, etc.

Effect of a Collector-chimney Junction Model on Solar Chimney Power Plants

Evergreen
A Solar Chimney Power Plant (SCPP) represents an innovative renewable energy technology, though its significant upfront investment cost poses a challenge to widespread adoption. / To address this issue, researchers have explored modifications to the chimney entrance geometry and the implementation of thermal energy storage systems to enhance efficiency

Anthropogenic impacts on the Glowworm Cave, Waitomo, New Zealand: a microclimate management approach

International Journal of Speleology, 2022
Waitomo Glowworm Cave is a highly visited cave where the highlight is viewing the bioluminescence display of a large colony of glowworms. The visitation levels result in the build-up of anthropogenic CO2, to the extent that it could cause corrosion of ...

Numerical study of the closure flow within the chimney of a typical MTR reactor

International Journal of Thermofluids, 2020
In this work, the closure flow values effect on the penetration depth of radioactive water inside the core chimney of a typical MTR reactor is studied numerically using commercial CFD software ANSYS FLUENT.

Differential gas exchange and soil microclimate dynamics under biodegradable plastic, polyethylene, and paper mulches

Italian Journal of Agronomy, 2022
Biodegradable plastic mulch is potentially a suitable alternative to conventional polyethylene mulch because of the limited disposal options of the latter. However, biodegradable plastic mulch must perform better or comparably to polyethylene mulch to be

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

Experimental and Numerical Study of Collector Geometry Effect on Solar Chimney Performance

Al-Khawarizmi Engineering Journal, 2017
There have been many advances in the solar chimney power plant  since 1930 and the first pilot work was built in Spain (Manzanares) that produced 50 KW. The solar chimney power plant is considered of a clean power generation that needs to be investigated

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Air Water Collector based on Chimney effect

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
Abstract The main research content of this project is the water recovery efficiency of the hot-pressure-driven air water-taking device when the phase-change material is used for energy supply, and combined with the research process, an automatic water-taking device using desert temperature difference and phase-change material storage is ...
