Fire Hydrant System,System Information,Operational Information,Fire Alarm System ......
Being one of the oldest but yet the most effective and common fire fighting solution, a well designed and a well laid out Hydrant System forms the backbone of the entire fire fighting system. It comprises of heavy duty above & underground piping with accessories. External and Fire Escape Hydrant valves are provided at every strategic location. A fire hydrant is a pipe that allows water to flow from a water main with the control of a valve in order to put out a fire.
A fire sprinkler system is an active fire protection measure, consisting of a water supply system, providing adequate pressure and flow rate to a water distribution piping system, onto which fire sprinklers are connected
An automatic sprinkler system is intended to detect, control and extinguish a fire, and warn the occupants of occurrence of fire. The installation comprises fire pumps, water storage tanks, control valve sets, sprinkler heads, flow switches, pressure switches, pipe work and valves. The system operates automatically without human intervention.
It has become more apparent over the years how important it is to have adequate fire protection in every building. For most people (Non-technical), what comes to mind when they think of fire protection are Sprinkler system, smoke detectors and fire extinguishers. However, these two elements only cover a small portion of the protection services you should have at all times. There are in fact two types of fire protection: Active Fire Protection (AFP) and Passive Fire Protection (PFP). One type of protection must not be chosen over the other. On the contrary, both AFP and PFP must be used together for full fire protection. It is important to understand the difference between AFP and PFP so that you are confident that your building is protected by both types.

Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.
Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.

The detector is use to sense the presence of
smoke/ combustion product in ventilation duct.
Design to operate via principle of differential air
pressure.
Consist of 2 probe of different length, works on the
differential air pressure created between the two
probes that are inserted into the duct airflow.
The longer probe which is the inlet port for
sampling air will lead the samples passing through
the sampling chamber for analysis and let the air
goes by through the shorter tube.
28. Detector Coverage
1.Spacing Under Flat Ceiling
Smoke Detector : Every point should
lie a horizontal distance of 7.5 m
Heat Detector : Every point should
lie a horizontal distance of 5.3m
29. Detector Coverage
2. Spacing Under Pitch Ceiling
If the difference in height between any apex
and an adjacent valley or low point of the
ceiling exceed 600mm for smoke detector or
150mm for heat detector, then the detector
should be place on the apex If less, the
ceiling can be considered as flat.
For detector mounted on the apex the radius
of cover of a detector can be increase by 1%
over each degree of slope, up to a
maximum 25 % . The increment of coverage
area up tp 25% is only applying to detectors
mounted on the apex row.
For hemispherical dome or a semi cylindrical
arch radius of cover of a detector in the
center can be taken as 8.93 m for smoke and
6.31 for heat detector.
30. Detector Coverage
Spacing In corridors
In the corridors the constrains of walls
cause the hot gas given of by fire to
travel faster . Therefore the coverage
area is allowed to be bigger.
31. Detector Coverage
Obstruction
If the passage of smoke or hot gas is likely to be obstruct by ceiling obstruction such as
beam which has depth greater than 150 mm but less than 10 % of the height of the
ceiling then the normal coverage distance allowed for the smoke and heat detector
should be decrease by twice the depth of the obstruction
Smoke Detector Coverage Area : 7.5 m – ( 2 x obstruction depth)
Heat detector Coverage Area : 5.3 m – (2 x obstruction depth)
