Sensors For The Detection Of Hazardous Emissions, Aidan O'Dwyer Jan 2007

Sensors For The Detection Of Hazardous Emissions, Aidan O'Dwyer

Conference papers

This contribution will detail recent developments in sensor technology for the detection of hazardous emissions. The accurate measurement of such emissions is necessary if they are to be controlled to the appropriate regulations.


Thermal Effectiveness Characteristics Of Low Approach Indirect Evaporative Cooling Systems In Buildings, Ben Costelloe, Donal Finn Jan 2007

Thermal Effectiveness Characteristics Of Low Approach Indirect Evaporative Cooling Systems In Buildings, Ben Costelloe, Donal Finn

Articles

Meteorological enthalpy analysis of temperate and maritime climates above latitude 45°N suggests that the water-side evaporative cooling technique has considerable unrealised potential with contemporary “high temperature” building cooling systems—such as chilled ceilings and displacement ventilation. As low approach conditions are the key to exploiting the cooling potential of the ambient air, thermal performance at such conditions needs to be investigated. To address the research issues, an industrial scale test rig, based on a low approach open cooling tower and plate heat exchanger and designed to maximise evaporative cooling potential, has been constructed. The thermal effectiveness of such systems (as a …


Biotechnology, Life Sciences And Control Engineering:Some Synthesis Issues, Aidan O'Dwyer Jan 2007

Biotechnology, Life Sciences And Control Engineering:Some Synthesis Issues, Aidan O'Dwyer

Conference papers

The synthesis of biotechnology, life sciences and control engineering is receiving increasing interest. The purpose of this contribution (and the associated poster) is to raise awareness of some of this synthesis work.
