The solar panel is one of the most sought after methods to produce electrical energy for domestic purposes. Solar PV/T systems converts solar irradiation into thermal and electrical energy. Module is made of Poly c-Si material. This experiment aims at analysing the comparative performance of hybrid solar PV/T water collectors connected in series and parallel. It was conducted in Saranathan College of Engineering, Tiruchirapalli-12. It is located at latitude of 10.7560-°N and longitude of 78.6513-°E. 

The maximum temperature of water obtained was 42.8-°C and 40.8-°C respectively in series and parallel. Overall the parallel connected PV/T system's performance is 12.12% higher than the series connected PV/T system.

Performance Improvement Analysis and Simulation of Solar PV/T Water Collector

The objective of this paper is to review the collection of literature available on the Photo Voltaic and Thermal Solar Collector. The review paper is presented to show the comparison of findings obtained by various research works. In solar collector, the solar energy from the sun is converted in to electrical energy by means of Photo Voltaic panel and thermal energy by converting cold water into hot water. 

Nowadays, solar collector is preferred in many industries and house hold applications to reduce the demand of electricity by increasing the effective utilization of solar energy coming from the sun. The selection of collector design plays vital role in the development of heat energy and electrical energy. The input process parameters such as type of collector, time, mass flow rate, flow direction, flow pattern and size of the flow tube are normally considered for the research work and the output responses like thermal efficiency and electrical efficiency are appraised by using the Photo Voltaic Thermal Hybrid Solar Collector. 

Normally experiments are to be conducted based on the recommendation by the Traditional and Non-Traditional techniques. The output efficiency of the solar collector is purely based on the selection of input process parameters. Based on the literature review, an investigation is essential to improve the performance of the solar collector. The authors found that input process parameters plays vital role in the quality and efficiency of the solar collector.

Optimization of Cutting Parameters in CNC Turning of AISI 304 & AISI 316 Stainless Steel

This paper deals with finding optimal cutting parameters to get the better surface finish. It uses Taguchi method of experiments in arriving at optimal cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on turning operation. Turning is common method for cutting, especially for the finished machined products. Surface finish obtained in turning process depends upon so many factors like job material, tool material, tool geometry, machining parameters etc. This experimental study is carried out to find optimum parameters of CNC turning operation on AISI 304 and AISI 316 job materials using carbide coated tools.

Improvement of a Radon Counter Sensitivity Using High-Voltage Ion Chamber

Radon is an invisible, odorless, and chemically inactive radioactive gas produced by the decay of uranium ore. Various types of equipment and components have been proposed for use in effective radon detection. In this paper, we used a radon counter with a PIN photodiode radon-sensor module. Using electrostatic collection and the PIN photodiode, a high sensitivity radon detector for air has been developed. The calibration system has also been developed using a linear regression analysis technique.

Automatic Gemstone Setting Machine in Jewels

Because of increment utilizing of mechanical robot arms, an advancement to that theme started attempting to emulate human developments in a detail mode. For instance a gathering of understudies in Korea made an outline of development that mechanical arm assess moving hand, weight lifting, chine's calligraphy composing and shading arrangement. 

Another gathering of designers at USA create eight level of flexibility robotic arm. This robot can get a handle on numerous articles with a great deal of shapes from a pen to a ball and reproducing likewise the hand of person. In space, the space, carry remote controller framework, known as SSRMS or Canadair, and its successor is case of multi level of opportunity robot arm that have been utilized to play out an assortment of assignments, for example, review of the bus utilizing a uniquely conveyed blast with cameras and sensors joined toward the end effectors. 

In this venture we utilize a mechanical arm to pick and place the gemstone in the gems. The possibility of the venture is to build up a moderate machine to make the gemstone setting process in gems simple. The target can be accomplished by actualizing the Independent Robot setup (3-arrange Pivot) to PICK and PLACE the gemstone into the decorations in a predefined position. A sensor is utilized to recognize the area of the gap where the stone is to be put in the trimming. 

And after that stone is come to that pre characterized position utilizing an automated arm which is accomplished by a small scale controller. The fundamental intention of the framework is to keep away from the breakage of stone and also the adornments. The framework will lessen the human effort and give a high accurate finishing to the adornments at less cost &time.

Thermal Imaging based Search Operation using Drone

In current scenario, if any person is trapped under the damaged building then the only way to identify its position is to search in the pile of concrete. This process is time consuming and chances of finding the body in short period of time are less. So to reduce the risk of life, we can use thermal sensors which can detect the position of the body with the help of energy wave radiated by it. In this paper, we will be able to detect the location of trapped body easily and risk of losing life will reduce.
