The paper presents the results of experimental investigation of the ORC system with a droplet separator (which was used to improve the quality of working medium vapour), a radial microturbine and a multi-fuel boiler. The research aimed at verifying the correctness of prototype microturbine performance in the ORC installation, equipped with a heat source in the form of the multi-fuel boiler. During these tests, a detailed assessment of the functioning of the microturbine and the boiler has been devoted more attention. The paper contains the characteristics of the heat exchangers installation that were obtained for the ORC system variant using a regenerative cycle. The multi-fuel boiler was fired with biomass (wood pellets). Two series of measurements were conducted for various flow rates and several selected temperatures of the working medium, glycol solution and thermal oil. On the basis of research carried out on the ORC with a radial microturbine, one can say that, physicochemical parameters of the HFE7100 medium obtained during the first measuring series, were as follows: temperature at the microturbine inlet 158.9 °C, pressure at the microturbine inlet 9.66 bar, flow rate 178.9 g/s at the microturbine discharge pressure of 1.75 bar. The second series of measurements gave the following results: temperature at the microturbine inlet 163.2 °C, pressure at the microturbine inlet 9.86 bar, flow rate 179.2 g/s at the microturbine discharge pressure of 1.88 bar. The maximum electrical power generated with the use of radial microturbine working in the regenerative ORC system reached about 1150 We.

The paper presents the results of experimental investigation on the ORC system with a droplet separator (which was used to improve the quality of working medium vapour) and two scroll expanders, which operated individually. The research aimed at verifying the correctness of scroll expanders performance in the ORC installation, equipped with the electric flow heater for thermal oil as a heat source. The paper contains the characteristics of the heat exchangers installation that were obtained for the ORC system variant using a regenerative cycle. The tests were conducted for selected flow rates and various temperatures of the working medium HFE7100, glycol solution and thermal oil. The unit with a gear pump and a magnetic coupling functioned as a circulating pump. Following the results of tests carried out on two scroll expanders it may be concluded that the electric power output that was measured at the generator terminals was approximately 750 W. The maximum voltages generated by the expanders amounted to around 200 V and the maximum current was about 4 A.

The pump is used to transfer liquid fluid from a low place to a high place or from one place to another with a certain distance and with a certain height. This study aims to figure the connection of series and parallel pumps to the discharge, pressure and pump power, and to figure the efficiency of series and parallel pumps with energy use. This study was conducted in a mechanical engineering major at Sambas State Polytechnic. The method used was three treatment experiments, including installing a single pump, a series pump installation, and a parallel pump installation. Observed changes are flow rate, water pressure, motor rotation, and electric current. The results showed that the series pump did not affect the discharge, but it affected the pressure and hydraulic power of the pump. While the parallel pump affects the increase in discharge but does not affect the pump pressure and hydraulic power. The results of pump calculations flow rate series 0.000450 m3 / sec, while the parallel pump flow rate 0.000769 m3 / sec. The results of pump measurement pressure are 80 psi series, while the parallel pump pressure is 40 psi. The calculation result of the hydraulic pump is 248.28 Watt series, while the parallel pump hydraulic power is 198.2 Watt.  The power efficiency of series pumps is higher than the efficiency of parallel pumps. The efficiency of electric power when measuring flow rate at 70.53% series pump installations, parallel pump electrical power efficiency of 56.3%. The efficiency of electric power when measuring series water pressure is 45.14%, while the parallel pump's electrical power efficiency is 36.03%.

The method for calculating the parameters of the cylindrical throttling elements of the tipping teeth of a multi-toothed mandrel has been performed, which makes it possible to provide the required volume and distribution of the working medium flow supplied to the mandrel in the process of processing deep holes of long cylinders and to substantiate the division of the total flow into several different streams that provide throttling of the lubricating-cooling liquid (Coolant) when used in a lubricating and cooling technological environment (SOTS). It is assumed that the processing is carried out on the principles of combining the processes of vortex milling and surface plastic deformation (SPD) by the methods and method of helical interpolation presented in the description of the monograph. The research results based on the developed methodology for calculating the flow rate of the working medium in cylindrical throttling elements allows for further improvement of existing methods for processing deep holes, including improving the quality of high-precision precision pipes.

This study implements the auto start control system on an electric motor 3 phase C4Feeding pump when the discharge pressure is low-low (4.3 kg /cm²). The C4 feeding pumpmotor was initially manually operated from the local control station, this was very ineffectiveand inefficient because it still relied on the field operator to operate the pump motor and whenthe plant was in normal operating it is very risk if the field operator late to operate motor then itwill impact to quality of the product, and if the delay time to operate motor is too long then planthave to shut down, therefore improvement is needed in the C4 feeding pump motor controlsystem. In this paper, various types of 3-phase motor control are explained which allow it to beapplied to the C4 feeding pump motor that are on-off, inverter, and variable speed drive andefficient selection of the three systems control of the motor.

Frequent Sampling

Radon is one of the contaminants that sometimes impair the water quality of wells, especially those drilled in bedrock. Domestic radon removal units based on aeration have been commercially available for more than ten years. In order to determine how effectively these units remove radon a new test protocol applying frequent sampling while letting 100 litres of water flow, was developed. This way, removal efficiencies can be more accurately calculated and possible malfunctions detected. Seven models of domestic aerators designed for removing radon from household water were tested. The aerators were based on diffused bubble aeration, spray aeration or jet aeration. The average removal efficiencies for 100 litres with a medium flow rate were 86–100% except for a unit that circulated the aerated water back to the well that had removal efficiency of 80% at the maximum. By conducting a questionnaire study usual problems related to the aeration units were localized and recommendations on maintenance and installation are given accordingly.

Abstract Background Performing nasal surgery on children has been the subject of controversy among surgeons. Specifically, the indications for and timing of septoplasty in children have been debated for the last several decades. In this study, we access the efficacy of the modified Goldman’s technique in dealing with caudal septal deviation in pediatric population suffering from severe nasal obstruction and its effect on nasal functions postoperatively. In this study, 30 pediatric patients suffering from deviated nasal septum who are candidate for septoplasty were included and underwent open septoplasty using modified Goldman’s technique. They were subjected to detailed assessment protocol preoperatively including NOSE scale, anterior rhinomanometry, and CT scans. Follow-up assessment was done at second week postoperative including anterior rhinoscopy and nasal endoscopy and 3 months postoperative including NOSE scale and anterior rhinomanometry. Results There was a statistically significant decrease of the NOSE scale severity to none in 90% of cases. Three months postoperative, all of the patients performed postoperative anterior active rhinomanometry with statistically significant decrease in the postoperative total nasal resistance values with inspiratory values ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 Pa/cm3/s with mean of 0.26 Pa/cm3/s and expiratory nasal resistance values ranging from 0.1 to 0.6 Pa/cm3/s with mean of 0.31 Pa/cm3/s. Conclusions Open septoplasty in children using the modified Goldman’s technique has enabled accurate and conservative approach for correction of nasal septal deviation especially those located in the caudal septal region. The technique also offers a significant reduction of the nasal symptoms postoperatively with marked improvement of the nasal resistance and quality of life in severe cases of deviated nasal septum.

Variable-Frequency Prony Method in the Analysis of Electrical Power QualityThe article presents a new modification of the the least squares Prony method. The so-called variable-frequency Prony method can be a useful tool for estimating parameters of sinusoidal components, which, in the analyzed signal, are characterized by time-dependent frequencies. The authors propose use of the presented method for testing the quality of electric energy. It allows observation of phenomena which, when using traditional methods, are averaged in the analysis window. The proposed modification of least squares Prony method is based on introduction and specific selection of a frequency matrix. This matrix represents frequencies of estimated components and their variability in time.

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the characteristics of the fluid flow within an entire coolant channel of a low pressure (LP) turbine blade. The serpentine channel, which keeps realistic blade geometry, consists of three passes connected by a 180° sharp bend and a semi-round bend, 2 tip exits and 25 trailing edge exits. The mean velocity fields within several typical cross sections were captured using a particle image velocimetry (PIV) system. Pressure and flow rate at each exit were determined through the measurements of local static pressure and volume flow rate. To optimize the design of LP turbine blade coolant channels, the effect of tip ejection ratio (ER) from 180° sharp bend on the flow characteristics in the coolant channel were experimentally investigated at a series of inlet Reynolds numbers from 25,000 to 50,000. A complex flow pattern, which is different from the previous investigations conducted by a simplified square or rectangular two-pass U-channel, is exhibited from the PIV results. This experimental investigation indicated that: a) in the main flow direction, the regions of separation bubble and flow impingement increase in size with a decrease of the ER; b) the shape, intensity and position of the secondary vortices are changed by the ER; c) the mass flow ratio of each exit to inlet is not sensitive to the inlet Reynolds number; d) the increase of the ER reduces the mass flow ratio through each trailing edge exit to the extent of about 23–28% of the ER = 0 reference under the condition that the tip exit located at 180° bend is full open; e) the pressure drop through the entire coolant channel decreases with an increase in the ER and inlet Reynolds number, and a reduction about 35–40% of the non-dimensional pressure drop is observed at different inlet Reynolds numbers, under the condition that the tip exit located at 180° bend is full open.
