The document describes the working of an absorption refrigeration system. Some key points:
- Absorption systems use a heat source instead of mechanical work to drive the refrigeration cycle. Common working pairs include ammonia-water and water-lithium bromide.
- The basic cycle is similar to vapor compression but uses an absorber, generator, pump and heat exchangers instead of a compressor. Low pressure refrigerant vapor is absorbed then desorbed using heat.
- Absorption systems can use low-grade heat sources like solar, waste heat. COP is lower than vapor compression but they are economically viable where electricity is limited.
- Common working fluid pairs are ammonia-

Simple vapour compression cycle and transcritical cycle are same but only Difference in Heat rejection Process.
In the transcritical cycle process, the heat rejection takes place at pressures and temperatures above the critical point – that is, in the fluid region.
A condition in the fluid region is often referred to as a gas condition.
For the transcritical cycle process, the heat rejection is therefore called gas cooling and subsequently the heat exchanger used is called a gas cooler.

Institution:
VIIT Pune, India
Abstract:
This paper proposes a system to differentiate between human-generated and AI-generated texts using stylometric analysis. The system analyzes text files and classifies writing styles by employing various clustering algorithms, such as k-means, k-means++, hierarchical, and DBSCAN. The effectiveness of these algorithms is measured using silhouette scores. The system successfully identifies distinct writing styles within documents, demonstrating its potential for plagiarism detection.
Introduction:
Stylometry, the study of linguistic and structural features in texts, is used for tasks like plagiarism detection, genre separation, and author verification. This paper leverages stylometric analysis to identify different writing styles and improve plagiarism detection methods.
Methodology:
The system includes data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction, dimensional reduction, machine learning models for clustering, and performance comparison using silhouette scores. Feature extraction focuses on lexical features, vocabulary richness, and readability scores. The study uses a small dataset of texts from various authors and employs algorithms like k-means, k-means++, hierarchical clustering, and DBSCAN for clustering.
Results:
Experiments show that the system effectively identifies writing styles, with silhouette scores indicating reasonable to strong clustering when k=2. As the number of clusters increases, the silhouette scores decrease, indicating a drop in accuracy. K-means and k-means++ perform similarly, while hierarchical clustering is less optimized.
Conclusion and Future Work:
The system works well for distinguishing writing styles with two clusters but becomes less accurate as the number of clusters increases. Future research could focus on adding more parameters and optimizing the methodology to improve accuracy with higher cluster values. This system can enhance existing plagiarism detection tools, especially in academic settings.

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.

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.
3. • Peculiar property of some substances to have more
affinity for another substances at some temperature and
pressure conditions while less affinity at other
conditions
• Ferdinand Carre, a Frenchman, invented the absorption
system in 1860
• The absorption cycle is similar in certain respects to the
vapour- compression cycle
• In the absorption system also, refrigeration is produced
by the evaporation of a liquid refrigerant in the
evaporator
• The difference between the two systems lies in the
principle of converting the refrigerant vapour back to
the liquid
Absorption Refrigeration System
4. •Economically attractive - source of inexpensive heat energy
at a temperature of 100 to 200 oC. Also used where there are
severe limits to the electrical power available.
• The overall energy used is greater than with the
compression cycle, so the COP is lower.
• Heat energy to the generator may be any form of low-grade
energy such as hot oil, natural gas, hot water, steam, Solar
radiation etc.
• NH3–H2O and H2O-LiBr absorption systems are common.
• Major advantage is that liquid is compressed instead of
vapour.
• The COP of actual systems is usually much less than 1.
Absorption Refrigeration System
6. • A refrigeration cycle will operate with the condenser,
expansion valve and evaporator as shown
• From the evaporator, the low pressure vapours are
transformed into high pressure vapour and delivered to
the condenser
• The absorption system first absorbs the low pressure
vapour in an appropriate absorbing liquid
• Since this process is similar to condensation, so heat
must be rejected during the process
• In the next step, the pressure of the liquid is elevated
with a pump
• In the final step, the vapours are again released from the
absorbing liquid by addition of heat
Absorption Refrigeration System
7. • Vapour compression ---- work operated cycle ---
compression requires work
• Absorption cycle ----- heat operated cycle --- operating
cost associated with provision of heat,
• Some work in absorption system also, to drive pump,
but amount of work for a given quantity of refrigeration
is minor compared with that needed in vapour-
compression cycle
Absorption Refrigeration System
8. Absorption Refrigeration System
The Basic Absorption Cycle - The condenser, expansion valve and the
evaporator are similar as in a standard vapour-compression cycle
9. • The compression operation is now provided by the
assembly in the left-half of the diagram
• Low pressure vapour from the evaporator is absorbed
by the liquid solution in the absorber
• As the refrigerant vapour enters into the solution in the
absorber, the temperature of the solution tend to rise
• To resist the tendency, a cooling coil removes this heat
of solution
• The solution in the absorber is called a strong solution
because it is rich in refrigerant
Absorption Refrigeration System
10. • The pump draws the strong solution from the absorber,
elevates the pressure of the solution, and forces the
strong solution into the generator
• In the generator the addition of heat raises the
temperature, which drives off some of the refrigerant as
a vapour at high pressure and temperature
• Solar energy, waste heat from the process industry,
exhaust gases from automobile, power plants, steel
plants, gas power plants, etc.
• As the refrigerant vapour leaves the solution in the
generator, the solution becomes weak or have a low
concentration of refrigerant
• The weak solution flows back to the absorber through a
throttling valve whose purpose is to ???
• From the generator the refrigerant proceeds through the
condenser, expansion valve and evaporator
Absorption Refrigeration System
11. • The pattern for the flow of heat to and from the four-heat
exchange components in the absorption cycle is as
follows:-
o High temperature heat enters the generator while
low temperature heat from the refrigerated space
enters the evaporator
o The heat rejection from the cycle occurs at the
absorber and condenser at temperatures such that
the heat can be rejected to atmosphere

Lithium Bromide (LiBr) Water Absorption Cycle
• LiBr is a solid salt crystal, in the presence of water vapour it
will absorb the vapour and become a liquid solution
• If two vessels were connected as shown in the figure, one vessel
containing LiBr-water solution and the other pure water, each liquid would
exert a water-vapour pressure that is a function of the solution
temperature and the concentration of the solution.
• At equilibrium the water-vapour pressure exerted by the two
liquids would be equal
14. The refrigerant is absorbed by a transport medium and compressed in liquid form. The
most widely used absorption refrigeration system is the ammonia-water (aqua-
ammonia) system, where ammonia serves as the refrigerant and water as the transport
medium. Dissolution of NH3 into water is exothermic and inversely proportional to
temperature. The work input to the pump is usually very small, and the COP of
absorption refrigeration systems is defined as

solutions
• Concentration is the abscissa of the graph and water-vapour
pressure could be considered as the ordinate on the vertical scale
on the right
• The saturation temperature of pure water corresponding to
these vapour pressures is shown as the ordinate on the left
• The chart applies to saturated conditions where the solution
is in equilibrium with water vapour
• If the temperature of pure water is 40 °C, the vapour pressure
the liquid exerts is 7.38 kPa, which can be determined from the
opposite side of vertical scale
o A LiBr solution with a concentration x of 59 % &
temperature of 80°C also develops a water-vapour pressure of 7.38
kPa
• o If the solution had a concentration x of 54% & temperature
of 70°C the water-vapour pressure would again be 7.38 kPa

From chart of LiBr-water solution
Since the pressure in condenser & generator must be same, the pressure in
condenser is equal to the 7.38 kPa corresponding to a saturation temperature of
40°C
Similarly, the pressure in evaporator & absorber must be same, the pressure in
absorber is equal to 1.23 kPa corresponding to a saturation temperature of 10 °C

Enthalpy of LiBr Solutions
• For thermal calculations on the absorption cycle, enthalpy
data must be available for the working substances at all crucial
positions in the cycle
• Water in liquid and vapour forms flows in and out of the
condenser & evaporator, so enthalpies at these points can be
determined from a table of properties of water
• In the generator and absorber, LiBr-water solutions exist for
which enthalpy is a function of both - solution temperature and
concentration

Absorption cycle with heat exchanger
•The heat-exchanger transfers heat between the two streams of solutions
•It heats the cool solution from the absorber on its way to the generator
and cools the solution returning from the generator to the absorber
•By addition of heat exchanger, the COP increases as well
23. Absorption Refrigeration System
Aqua-Ammonia System
In aqua-ammonia absorption system, water is used as an absorbent while
ammonia is used as a refrigerant
The system consists of all the components i.e., generator, absorber,
condenser, evaporator, and heat exchanger---- plus a rectifier & analyzer
24. Absorption Refrigeration System
• Additional components as refrigerant vapours released at
generator contains water vapour as well
• Normally aqua-ammonia system operate at evaporating
temperature below 0 °C
• If large amounts of water vapours are present in the
evaporator, chance that they may get converted to ice & block the
lines
• So to remove as much water vapour as possible, the vapours
driven off from the generator first flows through the rectifier, which
is a direct-cooled heat exchanger
• In the rectifier, the vapours from the generator first flow
counter-current to the incommoding strong solution from the
absorber
• Next the solution passes through the analyzer which is a
water-cooled heat exchanger, condensing some water rich liquids
which drains back to the rectifier
25. Absorption Refrigeration System

temperature at point 2 is 52 °C. The mass flow rate delivered by the solution pump is
0.6 kg/s. What are the rates of energy transfer at each of the components and the
COP of this cycle? Also, what is the temperature at state 4?
