EFFECT OF SILICA FUME ON RHEOLOGY AND MECHANICAL PROPERTY OF SELF COMPACTING ...IAEME Publication
The usage of an extensive group of industrial mineral residues (silica fume and fly ash) and other products significantly increases the rheological performance of concrete. This research is supposed to take a look at Rheology and Strengthened Properties of Self Compacting Concrete with Silica fume. This examination commenced with 4 groups of Self Compacting Concrete changed with diverse probabilities of Silica fume (5%, 10%,15%, and 20%). The rheological properties of self-compacting concrete are investigated experimentally using the slump flow diameter, the U box test, the V funnel test, and the L box test. Compressive strength and flexural strength are the strengthened properties experimentally examined. In this study, we observed the suitable percent of silica fume, which offers advanced rheological characteristics of Self Compacting Concrete as equated to Conventional Self Compacting Concrete. Our experimental results show, by the replacing 15% of silica fume with the weight of cement will increase both Rheological Properties and strengthened Properties of SCC.

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON BEHAVIOUR OF NANO CONCRETEIAEME Publication
The influence of Nano-Silica on various properties of concrete is obtained by replacing the cement with various percentages of Nano-Silica. Nano-Silica is used as a partial replacement for cement in the range of 2.5%, 3%, and 3.5% for M25 mix. Specimens are casted using Nano-Silica concrete. Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the compressive strength, split tensile and flexural strength of Nano-Silica concrete at the age of 7 and 28 days. Results indicate that the concrete, by using Nano-Silica powder, was able to increase its compressive strength. However, the density is reduced compared to standard mix of concrete. The replacement of cement with 3% Nano-Silica results in higher strength and reduction in the permeability than the controlled concrete. The replacement of cement with Nano-Silica more than 3% results in the reduction of various properties of Nano-Silica concrete.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolutionary concept that connects everyday objects and devices to the internet, enabling them to communicate, collect, and exchange data. Imagine a world where your refrigerator notifies you when you’re running low on groceries, or streetlights adjust their brightness based on traffic patterns – that’s the power of IoT. In essence, IoT transforms ordinary objects into smart, interconnected devices, creating a network of endless possibilities.
Here is a blog on the role of electrical and electronics engineers in IOT. Let's dig in!!!!

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.

Working/Hydration of cement
Working/Hydration of cement
1. C3S and C2S are major constituent of cement and their hydration
cause C-S-H (CaO − SiO2 − H2O) molecules to form.
2. These molecules does not have an exact composition and hardens
with time to form a neural network of bonds similar to metallic bond.
3. C3A hydrates fastest to form C-A-H (CaO − Al2O3 − H2O) paste with
negligible strength development. This hinders the hydration of C3S
and C2S and reduce overall strength of paste so Gypsum is added to
lower setting speed.
4. After setting finishes, cement keeps gaining strength for long time say
months. Two kind of pores formed in cement i.e. interlayer (Major)
and capillary (Minor).
