Page 1 of 4 Expansion Devices I. Introduction Expansion devices are basic components of a refrigeration system which carry out two major purposes: (1) the pressure reduction from the condenser to evaporator pressure and (2) the regulation of refrigerant flow into the evaporator. These expansion devices can be generally classified into two types which are namely the fixed opening type (flow area is fixed) and the variable opening type (flow area changes correspondingly with a change in mass

Introduction: Food industry misleads us by calculating the fat content in packaged food on “weight basis” whereas the fat content (having to do more with the calorific value of a food item and not its weight) actually has to be calculated on the basis of the calorie value of the food item. So‚ the “calorie basis” is what has to be applied to know how much fat our food items actually carry. Here are three interesting eye-openers!!

More than half of the world’s population lives in cities‚ a trend that is rapidly accelerating‚ especially in developing countries. In the USA‚ urban areas are merging into huge megalopitan areas‚ especially along interstate highways. Cities require and use large quantities of energy and materials‚ metabolizing them and generating large quantities of waste products and pollutants‚ resulting in unsustainable environments that adversely affect ecological integrity and diversity

OCEAN THERMAL ENERGY CONVERSION Abstract Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC)‚ to me‚ is the developing worlds answer to OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries). We will no longer have to depend on oil supplies from other countries. OTEC is an efficient‚ clean process‚ which utilizes the difference in temperatures between the oceans surface and its depths to produce energy. The ocean thermal energy conversion process works something like a refrigerator in reverse. The

Reserve Margin Planning in a Wind-Hydro-Thermal Power System A detailed analysis for the power system operation planning is the foremost matter to keep the reserves margin. The reviewed journal paper includes the considerations on wind speed forecast uncertainties‚ system load forecast uncertainties‚ ramp rates of thermal units and spinning reserves. Also‚ instantaneous‚ fast and slow reserve margin at each hour of the planning period is analysed. Thermal plant is the dominator of power generation

The Formation of Alum Crystals from Solutions in Two Different Thermal Conditions Burce P.J.‚ Cachuela J.A.A.‚ Capistrano M.M. I. Objectives The experiment aims to describe crystals and its aggregates by creating crystals of Alum (AlK (SO4)2 ∙12H2O)‚ commonly known as Tawas‚ from solution. Two setups will be created; crystals from each setup will be allowed to form at two different thermal conditions. With this‚ the experiment also aims to describe how temperature affects the formation of
