Biomass gasifiers are equipment’s that can generate producer gas which is a renewable, alternate source of energy that can be employed for power generation and thermal applications. In this experimental study the gasifier is tested in updraft and downdraft modes and performance analysis was carried out. For both the studies, casuarina wood and ambient air were used as feed stock and gasification agent respectively. From the experimental analysis it was inferred that the performance of the biomass gasifier was higher in downdraft mode than updraft mode.

In this paper a rectenna system for wireless transmission of power is presented, describing the correlated tools for the measurement of electromagnetic fields, in order to optimize the system. The first part is dedicated to the benefits of the currently used systems based on rectenna technology as alternative to the traditional supply systems. After, the diverse structures of rectenna system and their operating modes are discussed. The major parameters of interest for a performance analysis of the rectenna, and the most appropriate tools for a correct measurement of the radiated and absorbed electromagnetic field by the rectenna are reported too.

A new concept in aircraft propulsion is described in this paper. A variable cycle jet engine is being investigated for a supersonic STOVL aircraft. The engine is the selective bleed turbofan, a two shaft three compressor engine. At low flight speeds this engine operates as a medium bypass turbofan, and for the supersonic cruise condition it operates as a low bypass ratio turbofan in the dry mode. In this paper, the performance of the engine and some of the components is analysed. Off-design engine performance characteristics are explained, compressor running lines are shown, and variable geometry requirements are described. The performance analysis shows that fuel savings are significant, thus reducing aircraft take-off weight. The major advantage of this engine is that all the components are employed all the time, for all operating modes, thus incurring low weight penalties.

A comparative study of the performance characteristics of a printed 8-element V-shaped circular antenna array and an 8-element Yagi circular array operating at 2.45 GHz for vehicular direction finding applications is presented. Two operating modes are investigated; switched and phased modes. The arrays were fabricated on FR-4 substrates with 0.8 mm thickness. Measured and simulated results were compared. Radiation gain patterns were measured on a 1 m diameter ground plane that resembles the rooftop of a vehicle. The HPBW of the Yagi was found to be about 3° narrower than its V-shaped counterpart when measured above a reflecting ground plane and operated in switched mode. The printed V-shaped antenna array offers 2.5 dB extra gain compared to the printed Yagi array.
