A MEMS thermal biosensor is described for metabolic monitoring applications. It consists of a thermal sensor chip integrated with a microfluidic system featuring two chambers - one for a sample solution and one for a reference buffer. Changes in temperature difference during biochemical reactions can be measured by the thermopile and indicate concentration changes. The device operates in either a flow-injection or flow-through mode. Fabrication involves depositing nickel and chromium layers for heaters and thermopiles, etching a backside cavity, and bonding a PDMS microfluidic chip. The sensor offers improved sensitivity for thermal monitoring of biochemical processes.

In DSC the heat flow is measured and plotted against temperature of furnace or time to get a thermo gram. This is the basis of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC).
The deviation observed above the base (zero) line is called exothermic transition and below is called endothermic transition.
Review on Thermoelectric materials and applicationsijsrd.com
In this paper thermoelectric materials are theoretically analyzed. The thermoelectric cooler device proposed here uses semiconductor material and uses current to transport energy (i.e., heat) from a cold source to a hot source via n- and p-type carriers. This device is fabricated by combining the standard n- and p-channel solid-state thermoelectric cooler with a two-element device inserted into each of the two channels to eliminate the solid-state thermal conductivity. The heat removed from the cold source is the energy difference, because of field emitted electrons from the n-type and p-type semiconductors. The cooling efficiency is operationally defined as where V is the anode bias voltage The cooling device here is shown to have an energy transport (i.e., heat) per electron of about500 me V depending on concentration and field while, in good thermoelectric coolers, it is about 50-60 me V at room temperature.

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.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

MEMS Thermal Biosensor
1. A MEMS Thermal Biosensor for
Metabolic
Monitoring Applications
2. What is a Biosensor?
“Biosensor” is short for “Biological Sensor”.
An Analytical device which converts a Biological response into an
Electrical Signal.
A Biosensor typically consists of a Bio-recognition component,
Biotransducer component, and electronic system which include a
signal amplifier, processor, and display.
4. Thermal Biosensor
THERMAL biosensors measure thermal energy released or absorbed in
biochemical reactions.
Thermal activities exist ubiquitously in Biological Processes, and hence widely
applicable.
Requiring no labeling of reactants, thermal bio sensing is a universally useful
method, allowing direct interrogations of elementary processes in biochemistry
without sophisticated cascades of reaction steps.
5. Thermal Biosensor
MEMS thermal sensors are often based on temperature detection.
I. Thermistors
Rely on changes in their electric resistance with temperature.
Allow measurement of absolute temperatures.
Limited in sensitivity
II. Thermopile
Set of Thermocouple Junctions connected in series.
Allows measurement of differences in temperature between two Junctions.
Offers excellent common-mode noise cancellation and zero offset, and therefore can be highly
Sensitive.
6. Advantages of MEMS Thermal Biosensor
Improved Thermal Isolation.
Reduced Thermal Mass and Sample Volume.
Offer improved Sensitivity and Linear Range.
Reduced Power Consumption.
Shortened Measurement Times.
Allows batch fabrication and integration of miniaturized devices at
low cost
Enable High-Throughput Operation
7. Design
Device consists of a thermal sensor chip integrated with a microfluidic system featuring two
identical chambers.
An analyte sample solution and a reference buffer solution are respectively loaded into the
chambers.
The device can be used in Two modes: Flow-Injection mode and Flow-Through mode.
An important feature of the microfluidic system is that the chambers are each based on a
freestanding polymer diaphragm.
The temperature difference induces a voltage in the thermopile, which is the device’s direct
output
8.
9. Operating Principle
Changes during reaction:
o Enthalpy Change (ΔH)
o Change in Concentration(cs)
Concentration change in Flow - injection mode
cs = cs0e−λt.
Concentration change in Flow - through mode
cs = cs0e−(λA/Q)
10. Operating Principle
Power Density
ΔP =cs0λV ΔHe−λt (flow - injection mode)
ΔP = cs0QΔH(1 − e−λV/Q) (flow - through mode).
Temperature Difference
ΔT = ReffΔP
Thermopile Voltage
ΔU = KΔP
11. Fabrication
The fabrication process starts with a silicon
wafer with both sides covered with thermally
grown silicon dioxide.
Chromium and nickel are then deposited via
sputtering and patterned to form the integrated
resistive heaters (nickel), thermopile
(nickel/chromium) and bonding pads
(chromium).
Tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide is used to
etch the wafer from its backside with the oxide
there patterned as an etching mask.
12. Fabrication
An SU-8 thin film is spin-coated and patterned to
form the diaphragms, which upon wafer dicing
are made freestanding by gas-phase XeF2 etching.
The microfluidic chip was fabricated from
polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) by replica
molding.
PDMS is cast onto the SU-8 mold, cured at 70 ◦C
and peeled off to obtain a sheet bearing the
microfluidic features including the chambers,
channels and weirs.
The fluidic interface is made by inserting Tygon
tubing into the inlet and outlet wells and then
sealed with epoxy.
