Solar Passive Architecture an Overview

Basic requirement of shelter includes the use of enormous amount of energy for increasing population.Per capita electricity consumption has reached 1010 kilowatt-hour (kWh) in 2014-15, compared with 957 kWh in 2013-14 and 914.41 kWh in 2012-13, according to the Central Electricity Authority (CEA). India presently has an installed power generation capacity of 281,423MW.The peak power deficit'”shortfall in supply of power when the demand is maximum'”was 5.2% in year 2013-14.

Electricity demand in India is very high due to population of 121 crores. Production of electricity is mainly done by fossil fuels. They release gasses and particulates when they burn. Gasses are usually invisible, and include carbon dioxide, which has impacts on the global environment by accelerating global warming. Other gasses, like carbon monoxide, have impacts within the home, by affecting breathing and reducing the oxygen content of the blood.

Fossil fuels are depleting at a very fast rate and the production of electricity by them is not eco-friendly. For sustainable development and to reduce the environmental pollution Solar Passive Architecture is best option specially for building sector. Solar energy is genesis for all forms of energy. With its pollution free nature, virtually inexhaustible supply and global distribution- solar energy is very attractive energy resource. Making a building comfortable for human occupation with the minimum use of electricity consumption is called the Solar Passive Architecture.

Evaluation of Feasibility of Interlinking of Rivers for Environmental Protection

Interlinking of Rivers aims to link India's major river system by a network of reservoirs and canals so as to reduce persistent floods in some parts and water deficit in other parts of the country. The proposal is broadly categorized into three parts viz. the Northern Himalayan Rivers inter-link , the Southern Peninsular and an Intra-State Rivers linking componenst. The project is being studied by NWDA, under MWR. India receives about 4,000 through rainfall from June to mid- September.

Moreover it is not uniform in space and time, results floods in one part and droughts in other. This geographical and time variance in availability of natural water versus the year round demand for irrigation, drinking and industrial water creates a demand-supply gap that has been worsening with rising population. The Proponents of the rivers inter-linking projects claim the answers to problem is to conserve the abundant monsoon water bounty, store it in reservoirs, and deliver this water through rivers inter-linking project - to areas and over times when water becomes scarce.

In addition the project also offer potential benefits to transport infrastructure through navigation, and fish farming. The National perspective plan envisions about 170 million acre feet of water for beneficial uses in India, enabling irrigation over an additional area of 35 million hectares, generation of 40,000 MW hydro power, flood control and other benefits. The cost of the project is invoices 6.5 lack crores as on 2003.

Opponents are concerned about knowledge gap on environmental, ecological, social displacement impacts and unseen risks associated with tinkering with nature. Others are also concerned that some projects create international impact and the rights of nations such as Bangladesh and Nepal must be respected and negotiated.

Experimental Investigations on by using Quarry Dust Durability Properties of Concrete

For a long time concrete was considered to be very durable material requiring. We build concrete Structures in highly polluted urban and industrial areas. Aggressive marine environments harmful Sub-soil water in area and many other hostile conditions where other materials of construction are found is non-durable. Leaving waste materials into environment directly can cause environmental problems.

Quarry dust a waste from the quarry processing units accounts 30% of the final product from Quarry industry Therefore this waste can be used to produce new product or can be used as admixtures. So That the natural resources are use deficiently and hence environmental waste can be reduced. Here quarry dust is used for partial replacement of cement in concrete for study of physical and mechanical Properties of concrete.

The present project deals with the study of durably conditions of concrete made with partial replacement of cement with quarry dust proportions of 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% by weight of cement. Immersion test of sulphuric acid and hydrochloric acid are conducted at 5% by volume of water.

Modeling of Biodiesel Fuelled Direct Injection CI Engine using CFD

In present years, biodiesel is used as a fuel in internal combustion engine. This study deals with the combustion modeling of CI engine fuelled with Karanja oil as biodiesel. Combustion characteristics like heat release rate, cylinder pressure and rate of pressure rise have been analyzed. CFD code Fluent is used to model complex combustion phenomenon in compression ignition engine. The sub-model like k-e model, Taylor Analogy breakup model and droplet collision model are used. For modeling of in-cylinder combustion, finite rate chemistry and species transport models are used with simplified chemistry reactions. The modeling results were compared with the experimental results. The simulated combustion results are found satisfactory with the experimental results. The major objective of this paper is to study how combustion phenomenon occurred in engine cylinder with the help of CFD and also to understand the effect of biodiesel on CI engine combustion.

Power Quality Improvement in Off-Grid Renewable Energy Based Power System using Different Method

The increasing trend in integrating intermittent renewable energy sources into off-grid power system presents major challenges from the viewpoints of reliable operation and control. In this paper, the major problems and challenges in off-grid power system control are discussed, and a review of control strategies and trends is presented. A general overview of the main control is also included. The paper classifies power quality improvement strategies into three levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary, where primary and secondary levels are associated with the operation of the off-grid power system itself, and tertiary level pertains to the coordinated operation of the power system. Each control level is discussed in detail in view of the relevant existing technical literature

An Adaptive Model to Classify Plant Diseases Detection using KNN

Fungi and bacteria can interact synergistically to stimulate plant growth through a range of mechanisms that include improved nutrient acquisition and inhibition of fungal plant pathogens. These interactions may be of crucial importance within sustainable, low-input agricultural cropping systems that rely on biological processes rather than agrochemicals to maintain soil fertility and plant health. Although there are many studies concerning interactions between fungi and bacteria, the underlying mechanisms behind these associations are in general not very well understood, and their functional properties still require further experimental confirmation.

This proposal is about automatic detection of Fungi diseases and diseased part present in the leaf images of plants and even in the agriculture Crop production. It is done with advancement of computer technology which helps in farming to increase the production. Mainly there is problem of detection accuracy and in neural network approach support vector machine (SVM) is already exist. In this research proposal, we have discussed the various advantages and disadvantage of the plant Fungi diseases prediction techniques and proposed a novel approach (KNN) for the detection algorithm, a framework of our proposed work is given in this proposal and methodology is included.

An Efficient OCR System based on the Regional Feature using the ASVM as Classifier

In Image Processing, sometimes due to poor handwriting, the writer left some gap between diacritics and character or between diacritics and header line due to which small text blocks gets created which leads to improper text line segmentation and hence leads to wrong results and overlapping. As a result accuracy of the algorithm degrades. In proposed work Adaptive SVM will be used to improve accuracy of the system.
