Applications Of Helical Versus Straight Hollow Fiber Membranes: A Review, Adel Zrelli, Jamila Debaya, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Bechir Chaouachi
Engineering and Technology Journal
The production of straight and helical hollow fibers plays an important role in developing hollow fiber membrane technology that encompasses a broad range of designs. During the last two decades, scientific studies devoted to straight hollow fibers were more abundant than those focused on helical fibers. Several major applications considering side-by-side testing of these two geometries are discussed in this review. For membrane extraction, desalination, and membrane contactor processes, it is observed that permeability rates are 10%-400 % higher for helical fibers compared to straight fibers. This outcome is justified by the presence of Dean-vortices-induced flow turbulences inherent to the …

Artificial Neural Network-Based Transmission Power Control For Underwater Wireless Optical Communication System, Omar Mohammed Salim, Salah Adnan, Ammar Mutlag
Artificial Neural Network-Based Transmission Power Control For Underwater Wireless Optical Communication System, Omar Mohammed Salim, Salah Adnan, Ammar Mutlag
Engineering and Technology Journal
Several scientists have proposed using an underwater wireless optical communication system (UWOC) to deliver high-speed data services using the abundant optical spectrum. However, wireless optical signal propagation faces an antagonistic environment when using undersea channels due to various factors like scattering, absorption, turbulence, and optical link misalignment between the transmitter and the receiver. These factors will attenuate the optical signal and lead to degrading system performance. To reduce these factors impact on the communication system's performance, transmitted optical power (OTP) should be increased. Since the UWOC system is battery-powered, increasing OTP will consume more electrical power. Therefore, it is necessary …

Review On Virtual Inertia Control Topologies For Improving Frequency Stability Of Microgrid, Raof Idan, Ali Mahdi, Thamir Abdul Wahhab
Engineering and Technology Journal
Renewable energy sources (RESs), such as solar and wind power, offer new technologies for meeting the world's energy requirements. The distributed generator (DG) based on RESs has no rotational mass and damping effects compared to the traditional power system with synchronous generators (SG). However, the increasing penetration level of DG based on RESs causes low inertia, a dampening effect on the dynamic performance of the grid, and stability. A solution to improve the frequency stability of such a system is to provide virtual inertia by using virtual synchronous generators (VSG), which can be created by using short-term energy storage and …

Determination of Temperature-Time Profile by the Lumped thermal mass analysis (LTMA) method using Tiger-Nut Juice as the impinging fluid on the cooling system was carried out. With a stationary hot steel plate on a modified run-out table for the top surface controlled the accelerated cooling process. This was evaluated with pipe diameters of 10mm, 15mm, 30mm, 35mm, and 40mm by single jet Tiger-Nut Juice impinging fluid, impingement gaps of 115mm, 125mm, 135mm, 145mm, and 155mm, initial surface temperatures from 450oC – 410oC and at sub-cooled temperatures from 150oC–110oC. The analysis reveals a faster cooling rate for both diameters at an …

Due to the rising demand for treated water, the enhancement of potable water yield technologies, such as traditional solar distillers, is a pressing concern. Solar desalination is one of the easiest techniques for producing fresh water from salt water. It has several benefits, not the least. It utilizes free solar energy. Moreover, it is a simple and inexpensive technique compared to other alternatives. They are, nevertheless, relatively inefficient devices. Many studies have been done to boost the daily output of solar stills by using many active strategies to produce a large amount of evaporation and condensation compared to a basic …
