A Review on Fire Impacts on Concrete Structures
Concrete has been used as a construction material due to its versatile behaviour. It exhibits a high degree of fire resistance. The characteristic ability of concrete structures to combat one of the most devastating catastrophes can be attributed to its constituent materials which make it passive and have relatively poor thermal conductivity. However, concrete structures […]
New Design Criteria in Performance Based Earthquake Engineering
In order to increase the resistance of the building against earthquake effect in performance based design, the main objective is to select a performance target as design criteria and to design the structure to meet this target. In the nonlinear analysis with finite element method, the formation of the plastic hinge can lead to great […]
Microcontroller Based High Voltage Low Voltage Protection System
This paper presents methods for estimation and autonomous control of voltage which is done by an unmanned microcontroller based protection system with thermistor. It used to check temperature along with voltage protection. The transformer used is copper cored and it works only on alternating current source. The thermistor is used to detect the temperature in […]
Effect of Twisted Tape Insert on Heat Transfer Enhancement in Counter Flow Co Axial Double Pipe Heat Exchanger using CFD
The twisted tape has great potential as a device for enhancing heat transfer. Twisted tapes hold the advantage over other techniques as they ease of installation and operation. From the previous studies, it is also found that there were rare researches on a combination of twisted tape insert and nanofluids. Therefore, the scope of the […]
