This document discusses the energy efficiency and life cycle costs of ammonia (NH3) evaporative condenser systems compared to alternative refrigerant systems. It analyzes a case study of an egg production facility that uses either an R449A refrigerant system or an NH3 system. The NH3 system has a higher upfront cost of around €145,000 compared to €60,000 for the R449A system but lower operating costs of around €39,000 per year versus €49,000 per year. Over a lifespan of 15 years, the simple payback period for the higher cost NH3 system is estimated to be less than 9 years due to its energy savings. The document concludes that NH3 evaporative conden

Australasian Lab managers Conference: Gas Generation Dr Nicole Pendini 2019Nicole Renee Pendini
This presentation focus on on-site Gas Generation for the laboratory space supplying a range of analytical and specialty applications within the lab environment. I will focus on keeping green by preventing weekly cylinder and bulk supply deliveries, that waste energy offsite to generate the gas and petrol to delivery to the laboratory. The overall cost savings vs other methods (ROI < 1.5 years including service) and of course how Laboratory managers can significantly reduce their OHS/E risk with onsite Nitrogen, Hydrogen and Zero Air gas generators.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Harnessing WebAssembly for Real-time Stateless Streaming PipelinesChristina Lin
Traditionally, dealing with real-time data pipelines has involved significant overhead, even for straightforward tasks like data transformation or masking. However, in this talk, we’ll venture into the dynamic realm of WebAssembly (WASM) and discover how it can revolutionize the creation of stateless streaming pipelines within a Kafka (Redpanda) broker. These pipelines are adept at managing low-latency, high-data-volume scenarios.

Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

It consists of cw radar and fmcw radar ,range measurement,if amplifier and fmcw altimeterThe CW radar operates using continuous wave transmission, while the FMCW radar employs frequency-modulated continuous wave technology. Range measurement is a crucial aspect of radar systems, providing information about the distance to a target. The IF amplifier plays a key role in signal processing, amplifying intermediate frequency signals for further analysis. The FMCW altimeter utilizes frequency-modulated continuous wave technology to accurately measure altitude above a reference point.

The selected refrigerant can improve the system efficiency a lot, but in
small applications NH3 is still competing strongly with other
refrigerants.
Criteria:
- hot gas temperature (eg. limitation via oil)
- min. and max. condensing temperature
- pressure drop and refrigerant charge
The type of heat rejection method will have impact on:

Conclusion:
• The better energy and life cycle costs of plants with NH3 Evaporative
condenser are for larger one‘s known and accepted.
• For smaller applications, NH3 needs to overcome the high cost against
lower operating cost.
