This study aims to highlight the energy improvement potentials of Pakistan's paper sector that is one most intensive industries by benchmarking its specific consumption (SEC) produce a similar grade paper. To address issues such as lack indicators for efficiency in industry. Furthermore, saving potential was estimated comparison with United Kingdom and Canada, where benchmarks have already been...

Land leveling is one of the most important steps in soil preparation and cultivation. Although land leveling with machines requires considerable amount of energy, it delivers a suitable surface slope with minimal soil deterioration as well as damage to plants and other organisms in the soil. Notwithstanding, in recent years researchers have tried to reduce fossil fuel consumption and its delete...

a numerical model for two-phase debris flows is developed in this paper, on the basis of understanding of the physical characteristics of debris flows from field investigations and experiments. employing a moving coordinate, the kinetic energy equation of gravel particles in unit volume in debris flow is developed by considering the potential energy of the particles, energy from the liquid phas...

Total oxygen consumption following contraction at controlled shortening velocities was determined for ten twitches of frog sartorius muscle. Under the conditions of this investigation maximum oxygen consumption occurred at approximately 30 mm/sec. shortening velocity and decreased for larger and smaller velocities. Mechanical efficiency was calculated and found to show a maximum at approximatel...

Optimised solar air dryers, in terms of efficiency and performance, can solve some major concerns the agro-industrial processing sector. Solar dryers reduce large share energy costs a final product provide sustainable rural areas where access to is often limited. In this study, pilot scale v-groove double pass collector has been analysed thermodynamically with real time radiation mass flow rate...

e nergy consumption has increased significantly in iran during the recent decades. in this study, an inter-industrial model has been improved to investigate the sources of the changes in the energy consumption of the country. the input-output tables of iran for the years 1988 and 2001 have been employed as the database of the model. the innovation of this research allows the researchers to stud...

in this paper, an algorithm , based on genetics and auxiliary nodes, to reduce energy consumption in wireless sensor networks has been presented. in this research, by considering some parameters as energy and distance, a target function has been created, which is more optimum comparing to other methods. in this research cluster head is selected by genetic algorithm. in rawsn algorithm a new tec...

The energy consumption of Korea’s manufacturing sector has sharply increased over the past 20 years. This paper decomposes the factors influencing energy consumption in this sector using the logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI) method and analyzes the specific characteristics of energy consumption from 1991 to 2011. The analysis reveals that the activity effect played a major role in increasin...
