Refrigeration and air-conditioning systems consume about 15% of global electricity, and 46% of energy used in household and commercial buildings belongs to heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Vapor-compression technologies dominate the HV…

Building automation and control systems (BACs) allow plants in buildings to be controlled and managed, thus increasing the users' comfort and reducing the operation and maintenance costs. As far as the lighting services are concerned, control systems offer an …

The use of GPUs for general purpose applications is not a recent approach, but it was quickly becoming widespread with NVIDIA's CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) architecture based on C programming language in 2007. Algorithms suitable for parallel op…

Stress corrosion is a dangerous type of corrosion occuring as a result of effective with corrosive environment and stress of sensitive a material. Many metallic material may be exposed to stress corrosion damage depending on operating conditions. In order to d…

In this study, an experimental investigation of electricity production from a thermoelectric cooler heated by solar energy heat pipe has been done. For this, a heat pipe with water as the working fluid has been manufactured. Approximately 300 ml of water stora…

In this work, Intralube E with 0.38 % C press-ready mix powders were pressed with 550 MPa pressure and sintered 25 min at 1120 °C. Samples were coated electrochemically with nano diamond (ND) reinforced nickel to study the effect of nano composite coating on c…

In this study, the experimental application of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEM-FC) with dc-dc boost converter is realized for compact design of electric vehicle (eV). The PEM-FC is an electro-chemical device which combines hydrogen with oxygen to p…

In this study, we focused on to drive a compound DC motor with a Fuel-Cell and battery, which uses hydrogen as a fuel. A fuel cell can supply maximum 40V electric. In order to drive a DC motor, it needs 200Vdc. Therefore, a microcontroller controlled boost con…

Analysis of faults in synchronous generators are so important to protect the generators and the power systems. In this paper, double line-to-ground fault analysis in unloaded synchronous generator is presented. Apart from the similar studies in the literature,…

Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are configurable logic semiconductor devices which connect by programmable interconnections. They can be reprogrammed to desired application or functionality requirements. VHDL is a one of the hardware descriptive languag…

This study presents the investigation of thorium utilization in an ADS with Lead-Bismuth Eutectic (LBE) target. To effectively burn thorium, the ThO2 fuel rods cylindrically prepared, and cladded with SiC, are mixed with 233UO2 at volumetric ratio of 1%. These…

In this study, Al-12Si ingot alloy was melted in an electric resistance furnace and then poured into metal moulds through traditional casting method. Optimum machining conditions is aimed to determine by investigating the effects of cutting parameters on surfa…

Exhaust gas distribution in street canyons is one of the important research subjects in urban air quality studies. Vehicle emissions are an important group of pollutants in urban areas. In this study, the dispersion of exhaust emissions from vehicles in canyon…

The aim of this study is to improve the quality of the effluent of Elazığ Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant with the technique of phytoremediation used in a biotechnological application. For this purpose, a reactor design which the effluent of Elazığ Munici…

Nowadays, competition in industrial production has come to the top with technological improvements. In this competitive environment, producers need better quality, faster and less costly production methods. So, the use of industrial robotic systems is becoming…

The importance of the service quality has increased because of the rapid development of the technology and globalization. In the global competition environment, teaching of the students that can provide the expectations of the society and the business world is…

In the present study, energy and exergy analyses of a solar powered absorption refrigeration system are corried out by terms of the first and second laws of thermodynamics. NH3-H2O fluid couple is used in the system. The analyses are performed with the help of…

This study was carried out in the pure oriental beech forests of Yenice-Kızılkay in the Western Black Sea Region of Turkey, where the changes in the number of side roots and the changes in the height and diameter of the beech trees were examined in three diffe…

Increasing in wireless communications systems is caused to increase in the need of the frequency spectrum. CR (Cognitive Radio) measure or sense frequency spectrum activities on spectrum bands whether they are idle or used by licensed users. According to sensi…
