    In this study, the main focus is to study of air flow characteristic of UAV quadcopter propeller at incorporate blade profile using variable angle of attack (AoA) and revolution per minute (RPM) with its twisted blade using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) / Ansys tool. Three propellers have been designed which Propeller 1 is untwisted while Propeller 2 and 3 twisted at certain angle. Three speeds which are 4000 rpm, 6000 rpm and 8000 rpm have been set for each propeller are being analysed using ANSYS Fluid Flow (fluent). The result shows the different thrust force generated by three propellers and Propeller 2 (33.6757 N) has the highest thrust force generated compared to Propeller 1 and 3 especially at 8000 rpm. This is due to the suitable twisting angle profile that has been set at the Propeller 2 at this operating speed. For comparison, Propeller 3 produce the highest thrust force of 18.44 N at 6000 rpm exceeding Propeller 2 which is 17.81 N. To summarize, each propeller blade profile has a distinctive aerodynamic performance and should be adopted by matching the flight operating condition. Higher rpm generate higher thrust force, and increase lift and drag coefficient

    The recent scenario of modern manufacturing is tremendously improved in the sense of precision machining and abstaining from environmental pollution and hazard issues. In the present work, Ti�6242 is machined through wire EDM (WEDM) process with powder mixed dielectric and analyzed the influence of input parameters and inherent hazard issues. WEDM has different parameters such as peak current, pulse on time, pulse off time, gap voltage, wire-speed, wire tension, and so on, as well as dielec�trics with powder mixed. These are playing an essential role in WEDM performances to improve the pro�cess efficiency by developing the metal removal rate. Even though the parameter’s influencing, the study of the nano dielectric effect in the WEDM process is very essential during the machining process due to the high discharge energy. In the present study, two different dielectric fluids were used, including deio�nised water, and nanopowder dielectrically, and analyzed the data by taking the response surface method to use program design expert 10. From this study, it is established that dielectric types and powder sig�nificantly improve performances with a proper set of machining parameters and find out the risk factor associated with the WEDM process

    Most of the plant industry is required to measure the flow rate more accurately to meet plant operation and cost accounting objectives. The opposing concern of improving flow meter accuracy is resolved by using flow conditioners. The distance of implementation of flow conditioner upstream of the orifice plate flowmeter also needs to be addressed. The purpose of this study is to analysis the porosity of the circle grid perforated flow conditioner towards orifice plate flowmeter’s accuracy and to determine the ideal distance of flow conditioner upstream of the orifice plate flowmeter. In this investigation, a variety of designs of the flow conditioners based on a porosity were installed with different distance upstream of the orifice plate in conjunction with the different disturbances to assess the effects of these devices on the measurement of the mass flow rate. Experimental investigation depends on three patterns of the perforated plate in a variety of diameter ratio or porosity which is β equals to 0.38 for the first plate, 0.5 for the second plate and 0.7 for the final plate. These fractal patterns will then react to five openings of speed controller of the centrifugal inline fan. Data gains for all three plates showed that there is an increment of pressure drop and change in discharge coefficient of the orifice with lower β value of fractal flow conditioner. This investigation also compares the various distance of flow conditioner upstream of the orifice plate flowmeter, thus proved that shorter pipe length produced higher pressure drop

    Energy management in biodiesel production

    Biodiesel economics revolves around both private and public features. Success for an incentive for producers and consumers needs to be sufficient to take part in the marketing arena with the currently accessible alternatives in the private dimension. “Whereas in the civic aspect, success is described in terms of the community objectives that prompt government’s intercession (i. e. subsidies) and whether biodiesel will attain the public goals in a remunerative manner compared to other alternatives if the public assessment is highly preferred, but the market incentives are deficient, there will not be a possibility to produce the biodiesel. On the other hand, if market values generate strong dividends among producers and purchaser, but the social gains are very small, or the costs are extremely high compared to other alternatives, then the activity may not represent a better use of scarce public resources. Biodiesel has become more enticing to the world recently due to its environmental benefits and the fact that it is made from renewable resources. The production cost of biodiesel is the main barrier to commercialization of the product. In the absence of tax relief, there is an urgent need to explore alternative feedstocks for the production of biodiesel. Furthermore, Properties impact of biodiesel and its feedstock, Engine type and its operating conditions Additives are effected by the biodiesel type and production characteristics. Where Engine power is always affected by properties of biodiesel, especially in heating value, viscosity, and lubricity
