We show how the thermal losses within and outside a solar distillation unit vary with water depth in the basin of a passive solar still. The latent heat of vaporisation has been used for distillation under both passive and active modes of operation. The flow rate of the water mass over the glass...

We analyse the performance of a flat-plate collector with a constant rate of evaporation of flowing water between a glass cover and an absorbing plate. The effects of fluid-flow velocity, depth of fluid and length of the absorbing surface are discussed. We have allowed for periodic variation of...

This paper examines non-isothermal effects during carbon dioxide injection into a depleted gas reservoir for storage and EGR (enhanced gas recovery). We illustrate Joule–Thomson behavior with VHD (viscous heat dissipation) effects during reservoir repressurization. The equations of state for...

Wheat covers approximately 25% of the total global area devoted to by cereal crops. Wheat production needs to be augmented to meet the growing demand. The amount of wheat produced is a direct function of energy inputs. Wheat is produced using energy sources ranging from human and animal power to...
