in the present work the effect of cu-water nanofluid, as heat transfer fluid, on the performance of a parabolic solar collector was studied numerically. the temperature field, thermal efficiency, mean-outlet temperatures have been evaluated and compared for the conventional parabolic collectors and nanofluid based collectors. further, the effect of various parameters such as fluid velocity, vol...

It is shown that magnetic bipolar transistors can amplify currents even in the saturation regime, in which both the emitter–base and collector–base junctions are forward biased. The collector current and the current gain can change sign as they depend on the relative orientation of the equilibrium spin in the base and on the nonequilibrium spin in the emitter and collector. The predicted phenom...

A solar dryer hybrid photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) system has been designed, built and its performance studied. This research aims to develop a stand-alone dyer system, portable less maintenance. consists of three main parts; PV/T with configuration-Z absorber plate, multi-direction collector cross plate drying chamber. Solar which was designed in the is called because radiation does not get heat...

While real-time garbage collection is now available in production virtual machines, the lack of generational capability means applications with high allocation rates are subject to reduced throughput and high space overheads. Since frequent allocation is often correlated with a high-level, objectoriented style of programming, this can force builders of real-time systems to compromise on softwar...

A system is being tested for recovery of rf power by conversion to DC pulsed power. The system consists of a cyclotron autoresonance accelerator (CARA) [1,2], and a single stage depressed collector (Fig. 1). A 50 kV, 5 A electron beam is injected into CARA, and up to 1 MW of S-band rf power is absorbed by the beam with efficiency exceeding 95%. The beam then passes to a single stage depressed c...

As real-time systems become more complex, the need for more sophisticated runtime kernel features arises. One such feature that substantially lessens the burden of the programmer is automatic memory management, or garbage collection. However, incorporating garbage collection in a real-time kernel is not an easy task. One needs to guarantee, not only that sufficient memory will be reclaimed in o...

a new method of optimization on linear parabolic solar collectors using exergy analysis is presented. a comprehensive mathematical modeling of thermal and optical performance is simulated and geometrical and thermodynamic parameters were assumed as optimization variables. by applying a derived expression for exergy efficiency, exergy losses were generated and the optimum design and operating co...

Generational garbage collection is an established method for creating eecient garbage collectors. Even a simple implementation where all nodes that survive one garbage collection are tenured, i.e., moved to an old generation, works well in strict languages. In a lazy language, however, such an implementation can create severe temporary space leaks. The temporary space leaks appear in programs t...

The possibility of using flat plate collector in northern parts of Iran specially city of Rasht has been investigated in this paper. According to the high humidity in the northern parts of this country, diffuse radiation plays a more important role than direct radiation. This fact can change the results of delivered solar energy and the best tilt angle of the collector compared to the sunny cen...

The garbage collector presented in this paper makes use of two well known compaction garbage collection algorithms with very diierent performance characteristics: Cheney's two-space copying collector and Jonker's sliding compaction collector. We propose a scheme which allows either collector to be used. The run-time memory requirements of the program being executed are used to determine the mos...
