Energy conservation issues are acute in the world. Compressed air is widely used in the modern industrial production. The production of compressed air is a very energy-intensive process, since most of the energy, which is expended by the compressor, passes into the energy of heating. Compressed air cannot be used in modern production without a prior drying and cleaning. Industrial dryer’s air losses is up to 20% of compressed air additionally. Therefore, the issue of saving air during its drying stage is important. In the presented article, the thermal and aerodynamic processes that occur in the classical adsorption tower with the most modern design are considered. The processes that occur in the adsorption column with the microwave regeneration of the adsorbent are also considered. A comparative analysis of these constructions from the point of view of energy saving is made.

This paper designs an accurate and low-cost phishing detection sensor by exploring deep learning techniques. Phishing is a very common social engineering technique. The attackers try to deceive online users by mimicking a uniform resource locator (URL) and a webpage. Traditionally, phishing detection is largely based on manual reports from users. Machine learning techniques have recently been introduced for phishing detection. With the recent rapid development of deep learning techniques, many deep-learning-based recognition methods have also been explored to improve classification performance. This paper proposes a light-weight deep learning algorithm to detect the malicious URLs and enable a real-time and energy-saving phishing detection sensor. Experimental tests and comparisons have been conducted to verify the efficacy of the proposed method. According to the experiments, the true detection rate has been improved. This paper has also verified that the proposed method can run in an energy-saving embedded single board computer in real-time.

Quadruped robots, which tend to be heavy can be made lighter by carefully considering the number of actuators and required power. This paper discusses the relationship of the moving functions of quadruped locomotion and the required number of actuators. Using fewer actuators than conventionally need not prevent the quadruped robot from satisfactory locomotion. At the same time, energy saving brings a lighter design, because required actuators and batteries are smaller. This paper discusses several techniques to reduce energy consumption. Combining these discussions, examples of 3-, 5-, and 9-actuator quadrupeds are designed, and experimentally performed good locomotion.

In order to minimize the fuel consumption, the topology optimization and sizing optimization are applied in the light-weight design of frame for energy-saving vehicle. The investigation consists of two stages. In the first stage, the static analysis and topology optimization were carried on the original frame to obtain the optimal layout. Then the sizing optimization was explored to find the feasible section dimension of beam. The simulation results revealed that the stress concentration and excessive local deformation of vehicle frame structure have been remarkably improved, meanwhile, the frame’s weight has been decreased more than 15.0%. It is concluded that the optimization method is effective to obtain the optimal light-weight design for vehicle frame.

Bamboo-steel composite structure is a new structure type, which has outstanding advantages of light weight, high strength, energy-saving and environmental protection. Components of this structure use bamboo plywood and cold-formed thin-walled steel as main materials, which are combined by structural adhesives. This paper presents an analysis approach of the bonding properties of bamboo-steel interface under static load.

Phase change material (PCM) can be used in building envelope for heat insulation and energy-saving. However, the energy-saving effect of the PCM wall system is limited in summer since the PCM storing heat in the daytime will become a secondary heat source and release heat into the room again at night. This paper proposed a novel pipe-encapsulated PCM wall system. It integrates phase change technology and nocturnal radiation cooling technology together to realize building insulation and active heat removal. A simulation platform is established for the thermal performance simulation of this wall system. It mainly includes the simplified pipe-encapsulated PCM wall model and nocturnal radiation model. The simplified wall model includes the 5R2C wall model, 4R2C PCM model and 2R1C pipe model. The model parameters are identified and the model is also validated with good accuracy. Based on this platform, the thermal performance of a light weight room with pipe-encapsulated PCM wall system in Wuhan is simulated. About 50%-60% of heat from the outdoor environment can be conserved by the pipe-encapsulated PCM wall, and 50% of that can be removed by the radiant cooler at night. Results show the pipe-encapsulated PCM wall system has good thermal performance for light weight building.

To solve the loss of power in the household, we need a tool that is capable of supplying the power source voltage. One of the tools is the inverter, so the author aims to analyze how the effects of the use of the appliance inverter if saddled with the burden of energy-saving lamps as lighting in residences. The method used is by measuring along with an analysis of calculation given load whenever inverter energy- saving lamps with varying power to determine the change in the electrical quantities to be analyzed. This research reached at the time of getting the highest load of 203W; cos φ light weight using the inverter much better, reaching 0.93 compared without using an inverter which is just 0.68 as well as current and load power consumed by the use of the much smaller inverter. For example, only 0,76A and 135,63A compared to the load current and power without the use of inverters that achieve 1,3A and 185,64W.

To meet energy-saving and environment-protective purpose, a series of plastic pumps are developed by composite molding. There are four key techniques involved, firstly, plastic hydraulic components with light-weight; secondly, steel barrel as a pump casing and a connection component as well; thirdly, floating impeller strategy where impeller is drifting freely along shaft; and lastly, a self balancing impeller technique which can totally keep axial force balancing. The manufacturing process is energy-saving, and the components can be recycled, which have great potentials for conservation of environment.
