Liquid fuel has been the main source of energy in internal combustion engines (ICE) for decades. However, lithium-ion batteries (LIB) have replaced ICE environmentally friendly vehicles and reducing fossil dependence. This paper focuses on comparative analysis battery thermal management system (BTMS) to maintain a working temperature range 15–35 °C prevent runaway high gradient, consequently in...

The necessity for decrease in consumption of conventional fuel, related energy and to promote the use of renewable sources such as biofuels, demands for the effective evaluation of the performance of engines based on laws of thermodynamics. Energy, exergy, entropy generation, mean gas temperature and exhaust gas temperature analysis of CI engine using diesel and karanja methyl ester blends at d...

Mosquitoes are considered as the most nuisance causing vectors they responsible for a widespread of diseases. Malaria-borne mosquitoes killing two to three million people and infect an estimated hundred or more annually. A host other mosquito-borne diseases including filariasis, yellow fever, dengue, encephalitis kill debilitate hundreds millions more. The present study investigates bio efficac...

Seven pure-culture strains of fungi cultivated by attine ants (ant-garden fungi) were isolated from locally maintained leaf-cutting ant colonies. An ant-garden fungus strain obtained from an Atta cephalotes colony, when offered to ants of the colony from which the fungus was isolated, was accepted as their own. Young fungus cultures were harvested and incorporated into the fungus garden, and cu...
