    PERCEPTION TOWARDS INDUSTRY BASED CAPACITY BUILDING IN INSTRUCTORS TO ENHANCE QUALITY APPROACH IN ENGINEERING

    No full text
    Modern Training and learning assume a vital job for making a designing understudy just as an instructor work prepared and refreshed. The present building training requests inside and out hypothetical learning just as active introduction to the knowledge. The primary reason instructor associated with building training need to experience Industrial connection is so they are all around arranged for all most recent specialized advancement and useful viewpoints in their picked field. It is an opportunity for them to put what they have realized as far as they can tell and to co-relate their insight with industrial specialists. It is favorable position for students as well as institution if the lecturer who is an engineer himself ideally with a long or normal connection with the industries. The paper expects to talk about this issue and present the author's understanding amid one of the modern connections and the result as students input in the wake of applying most recent, enhanced and imaginative points in course structure through engagement with industries

    This paper discusses energy status of Botswana and the environmental concerns associated with the production of energy. It was offered in response to the growing concerns in industry about the need for the conservation of energy and for combating the increasing environmental degradation. Accomplishing vitality proficiency and diminishing ecological contamination are progressively essential parts of expert designing. The paper is meant to address top to bottom comprehension of basic issues of energy thrift and environmental consequences of irrational use of energy resources in industry. There is need for up to date technical knowledge and skills required for achieving the better management of energy, designing of energy-efficient systems and processes and the reduction and control of pollution cost-effectively. This information can successfully be coordinated to different segments of the economy for application and help the divisions in enhancing their aggressiveness despite lessening assets, likely considerable increment in unit vitality costs and the urgent requirement to comply with the increasingly-restrictive pollution-control standards

    PERFORMANCE EVOLUTION OF AN IMPROVED SOLAR THERMAL HOT AIR HEATING SYSTEM FOR DRYING GROUND-NUTS

    Drying is the most seasoned safeguarding strategy of rural items and it is a vitality serious procedure. High costs and deficiencies of petroleum products have expanded the accentuation on utilizing elective sustainable power source assets. This analytical research is for the structure of an appropriate sunlight based warm sight-seeing heating framework for drying grounds nuts and to build a run of the mill level plate sun powered authority. After attentive investigation and research, a spending amicable and a do it without anyone’s help sight-seeing thermal warming system for drying ground nuts was intended to permit anybody that is intrigued to put resources into its development and advantage from its utilization. A progression of examination demonstrates that the sun oriented warm air warming framework can decrease the dampness content inside the groundnuts as the analyses demonstrated that the normal last dampness inside the groundnuts were 10.575% and 8.4%. The drying proficiency for the two examinations were observed to be 39.125% and 30.9% separately

    The study describes a research and development directed at examining research and design a SHWS, and test a flat-plate solar collector capable of collection efficiency in excess of 50 percent at an inlet fluid temperature 22ºC. The model was analyzed using theoretical and mathematical analysis and the T*SOL® simulation programme for solar thermal heating systems using radiation data to site. The average efficiency of mathematically designed system was higher as 70% than the designed value efficiency of 20. The effectiveness of the collector was seen to be higher toward the start of the test and reductions consistently as the test advances with time. The economic analysis of the whole system desired was done with an initial total investment of US991.10.TheeconomicperformanceofthesystemgivesapositivenetpresentvalueofUS991.10. The economic performance of the system gives a positive net present value of US4662.13with a payback period of 0.7 years. At a steady radiation, the higher the heat absorbed, the higher the efficiency of the collector. The use of the flat plate solar collector for domestic and commercial heating (for eight person bread and breakfast) purposes in Gaborone is feasible since reasonable temperatures (outlet from the collector, to) were realized
