black tea sample was dried by a vibro-fluidized bed dryer to find its aerodynamic behavior and thermal performance during drying. the drying experiments were conducted at three different inlet air temperatures of 100, 115 and 130°c and fluidization condition at five vibration intensity levels of 0 (no vibration), 0.063, 0.189, 0.395 and 1.184. the results showed that bed channeling and defluidi...

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...

Due to non inheritable restriction of sensors, there is always a vital issue on the way to utilize restricted energy effectively. In the proposed work we have focused on the Energy Consumption in WSN Using Mobile Sink and Hierarchal Clustering. There is concept of bringing mobile sinks to sensing field to save energy of cluster heads while sending data to mobile sinks instead of fixed sink on b...

abstract in order to assess the environmental impact of agricultural activity, the long-term sustainability should be considered. in order to achieve solutions to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions in the production of rainfed sunflower, this assessment was conducted in the north east of iran. four production methods, i.e. conventional tillage (ct), tow reduced tillages (rt1and rt2)...

abstract soil compaction is a main factor that reduces the cane yield in sugarcane fields, in southwest of iran, especially in ratoon cropping system. therefore, sub-soiling practices could alleviate adverse effects of compaction and increased yield. in according to this aim, a study was to evaluate the effect of  ratooning practice systems consisting of control (no subsoiler), two and four sha...

Secured Wireless Networking is done by using an energy efficient routing protocol is the major concern in the field of wireless sensor networks. In this paper we present hybrid energy efficient hierarchial routing protocol which is developed from previous energy balanced routing protocols. Futuristic advancement in this paper also enlightens some of the issues faced by GSTEB and also explains h...

Energy efficiency is an important aspect of green computing. In order to achieve green computing in service discovery protocols for MANETs, it is essential for researchers to investigate energy efficiency mechanisms able to prevent collisions and interferences, which both represent a waste of channel bandwidth and energy. In this paper, we propose a service discovery protocol that applies a dat...

energy consumption in the residential sector is a complex socio-technical problem that can be explained using acombination of physical, demographic and behavioural characteristics of a house and its occupants. in this paper, byusing the energy consumption data for the residential sector of shiraz in iran, the effect of built area (ba) andoccupant number (occ) on annual energy consumption (ec) w...
