This study proposes a downstream single-row air washer for air cooling. The theoretical energy and exergy balance models were established at different droplet diameters and verified by the experimental data. Based on the abovementioned theoretical relationship, the single performance indicator of heat exchange efficiency (HEE) and exergy efficiency was quantitatively analyzed; a comprehensive analysis method of two indicators was proposed, combining HEE and exergy efficiency, and a numerical simulation was carried out. Results show that the smaller the droplet diameter and the larger the water–air ratio, the lower the dry-bulb temperature of the outlet air and the higher the HEE and exergy flux destruction. When the droplet diameter is less than 440 μm, the droplet diameter does not affect exergy efficiency and dry-bulb temperature. When the droplet diameter is larger than 440 μm, the droplet diameter is positively correlated with the air outlet dry-bulb temperature and exergy efficiency; in contrast, the water–gas ratio is negatively correlated with the air outlet dry-bulb temperature. An engineering case reveals that when the air outlet temperature is less than 34°C, the critical water–gas ratio can be set as 2.6 (mass ratio). At this time, the HEE is more than 90%, the exergy efficiency is more than 60%, and the critical value of droplet diameter is 440 μm. The research results provide an essential theoretical basis for the optimization of engineering design calculation.

Abstract Wastewater treatment is the process used to remove contaminants from wastewater to produce an effluent suitable for discharge to the environment. Several kinds of wastewater are treated based on the concentration of various parameters. Domestic Wastewater/Municipal Wastewater is treated in Sewage Treatment Plants (STP), which involve various types of processes like physical, chemical and biological to treat the wastewater better. The treatment plant involves five steps of the process – preliminary treatment, primary treatment, secondary treatment, tertiary treatment and sludge treatment to meet the safe disposal guidelines of the department of the environment. In this paper, a municipal wastewater treatment plant for Uttara City is designed and modeled with GPS-X. GPS-X is a wastewater treatment plant modeling software package that is used for verify the treatment process. The design calculation of all unit operations is shown with a specification table. The Process Flow Diagram (PFD), Process Block Diagram (PBD) and mass balance of the process are expressed in the article. The design calculation of the STP is performed with a steady-state process. After each unit operation, the concentration of various parameters – TSS, BOD, VSS, TN is analyzed and the removal efficiency for different equipment is calculated. The STP is designed to maintain the guidelines of the Department of Environment, Bangladesh. At the end of the paper, the designing and modeling steps of a sewage treatment plant will be pursued. Finally, some recommendations are done in the conclusion section.

The pressure distribution law of muddy water with high silt content has great influence on the stress and strain calculation of the dam body. Currently, there is a few research studies referring to the calculation method of high silt content muddy water pressure, which leads to no reliable theoretical basis for muddy water pressure calculation in dam design. In this paper, muddy water with high silt content was prepared and the imitation tests and model tests were carried out to investigate the pressure distribution law. Based on the test result analysis, it is indicated that the muddy water with high silt content is also in a flowable and viscous state, which is consistent with the law of fluid behavior; the horizontal pressure is equal to the vertical pressure at the same position, and this relationship is generally time independent; through the test result analysis, a pressure formula for muddy water with high silt content is proposed; through comparison between the pressure formula-calculated results and monitoring data, it is indicated that the proposed pressure formula is applicable in the calculation of muddy water pressure. The formula can be a useful tool in the dam safety and design calculation.

Due to the importance of the problems of implementing energy-saving technologies in modern conditions, one of the promising areas is the use of gas turbines for combined heat and power generation. One of the areas of effective development and technical re-equipment is the widespread use of highly economical combined steam and gas plants and gas turbines. The operation of the gas turbine unit “Aquarius” SE NPCG “Zorya-Mashproekt” with the injection of steam into the combustion chamber, which operates on the advanced cycle A-STIG and has in its circuit equipment for water regeneration, condensed from a vapor-gas mixture is considered. For condensation of steam from the vapor-gas mixture, a contact condenser-gas cooler is used, which is a mixing heat exchanger of complex design. The efficiency of heat transfer is determined by the design of the nozzle, namely, the developed heat transfer surface, small hydraulic supports, high heat transfer coefficients. An important aspect is the overall dimensions, which must be within certain limits. In the work it is offered to execute a design of the condenser in the form of a packed column. Different types of nozzles are considered to choose the best option. As a result of thermal design calculation of the contact capacitor, it is proposed to use Rashiga rings (15152) as a nozzle, which provide the lowest height of the nozzle at the required diameter of the device.

Computer models used in the design calculation of masonry buildings sometimes fail to correctly take into account the stress-strain state of walls and assess the likelihood of cracks caused by the deformation differences of interacting walls.Following the construction of a building, cracks can develop at wall intersections for several years. However, their repair is mostly ineffective until the total damping of masonry creep deformation.Drawing on the analysis of conducted research and field data, the authors give recommendations on ensuring the crack resistance of internal masonry walls.

For most sailing yachts, losing a rudder is probably the most catastrophic structural failure other than losing the keel. Rudder failure happens with distressing regularity. This paper examines the hypothesis that the underlying reason is design failure. There are many qualitative decisions to be taken in the design calculation process. Example calculations are presented which show that the maximum rudder force generated in steady state conditions is easily underestimated. For a typical spade rudder of a typical modern production sailing yacht, the normal rudder force should be calculated using a boat speed of at least 125% hull speed, and a force coefficient of at least 1.3. Care must be taken in selecting an appropriate value for the allowable stress of the material used for the stock.

В работе предложены процедуры для выполнения проектировочного расчета судовых валов из полимерных композиционных материалов. Рассматривалась цилиндрическая оболочка, являющаяся основным телом промежуточного судового вала. Она сформирована из пакетов монослоев, состоящих из армирующего волокна и связующей матрицы. Определяющей нагрузкой на судовой вал принят крутящий момент. Заданы ограничения на параметры напряженно-деформированного состояния, характеризующие формы отказов для оболочки в целом и пакета монослоев. Получены аналитические зависимости, связывающие параметры проектирования с крутильной жесткостью, касательными напряжениями потери устойчивости оболочки и нормальными напряжения в волокне. При заданных характеристиках материала проектирование сведено к определению радиуса и толщины оболочки вала. Выполнена серия проектировочных расчетов, различающихся типом активных ограничений. Полученные варианты проектирования проанализированы с помощью метода конечных элементов. Произведена проверка удовлетворения всех ограничений. Предложены условия проектирования, обеспечивающие приемлемые варианты проектов валов из ПКМ. The paper proposes procedures for performing the design calculation of ship shafts made of polymer composite materials. The cylindrical shell, which is the main body of the intermediate ship shaft, was considered. It is formed from packages of monolayers consisting of a reinforcing fiber and a binding matrix. The determining load on the ship's shaft is assumed to be the torque. Restrictions are set on the parameters of the stress-strain state that characterize the failure forms for the shell as a whole and the monolayer package. Analytical dependences linking the design parameters with torsional stiffness, tangential stresses of the shell loss of stability and normal stresses in the fiber are obtained. With the specified material characteristics, the design is reduced to determining the radius and thickness of the shaft shell. A series of design calculations, differing in the type of active constraints, has been performed. The obtained design options are analyzed using the finite element method. The check of satisfaction of all restrictions is made. The design conditions that provide acceptable variants of shaft designs from PCM are proposed.
