Capacity Calculation

Passenger car equivalents (PCE) present a very important parameter for capacity calculation and road service level as well as a planning segment of road capacity. There are many ways of calculating PCE and most of them are based on Greenshield’s basic method. This paper studies the PCE calculation methodology and conditions under which it is applied. The first part of the paper is about role of PCE in analyzing traffic flow, and the rest of the paper is presenting methodologies for computation of PCE. Example of the latest method for determining PCE according to HCM-2010 is given in this paper. The goal of the research is presented by structural, parameter and functional analysis of methods. Further research directions of PCE are shown as well.

Spatial Plan

Pipe tanks represent important runoff retention elements of urban stormwater systems. They enable us to reduce and retain runoff as well as to mitigate peak flows in the network. Pipe tanks are often taken into account while designing the spatial plan of urban catchment areas. Hence, there is a need to develop a relatively quick and accurate method for pipe tank dimensioning. A graphical–analytical method of designing a pipe tank is presented in the paper. In the assumed methodology, the possibility of employing machine learning for obtaining a more precise error prediction of the proposed pipe tank design method (compared with the tank volume simulations using the storm water management model (SWMM)) are considered. Thus far, this aspect has not been discussed in the literature. In the adopted calculation methodology, sensitivity analysis constitutes an important element, enabling us to assess the influence of the input data assumed for tank design on the dimensions of the outflow devices and the length of the retention chamber.

The Impact

The average carbon intensity (gCO2e/kWh) of electricity provided by the UK National Grid is decreasing and becoming more time variable. This paper reviews the impact on energy calculations of using various levels of data resolution (half hourly, daily, monthly and annual) and of moving to region specific data. This analysis is in two parts, one focused on the potential impact on Part L assessments and the other on reported carbon emissions for existing buildings. Analysis demonstrated that an increase in calculated emissions of up to 12% is possible when using an emissions calculation methodology employing higher resolution grid carbon intensity data. Regional analysis indicated an even larger calculation discrepancy, with some regions annual emissions increasing by a factor of ten as compared to other regions. This paper proposes a path forward for the industry to improve the accuracy of analysis by using better data sources. The proposed change in calculation methodology is analogous to moving from using an annual average external temperature to using a CIBSE weather profile for a specific city or using a future weather file. Practical application: This paper aims to quantify the inaccuracy of a calculation methodology in common use in the industry and key to building regulations (specifically Building Regulations Part L – Conservation of Fuel and Power) – translating electricity consumption into carbon emissions. It proposes an alternative methodology which improves the accuracy of the calculation based on improved data inputs.

Increasing Temperature

In this paper, we develop a theoretical model for quantitative analysis of temperature-dependent heat capacity calculation of the magnetoresistance compounds RMnO 3 ( R = La , Nd ). The results on heat capacity obtained by us are in good agreement with the measured values. An effective interionic interaction potential (EIoIP) with the long-range Coulomb, van der Waals (vdW) interaction and short-range repulsive interaction up to second neighbor ions within the Hafemeister and Flygare approach was formulated to estimate the Debye and Einstein temperature and was found to be consistent with the available experimental data. In addition, the properties studied are the cohesive energy, molecular force constant, Restrahlen frequency and Gruneisen parameter. After characterizing thermal properties, a systematic investigation of elastic behavior has been undertaken and it has been found that the elastic moduli are decreasing continuously with increasing temperature.
