The steam-electric power station is a power station in which the electric generator is steam driven.
The Rankine cycle or Rankine Vapor Cycle is the process widely used by power plants such as coal-fired power plants or nuclear reactors. In this mechanism, a fuel is used to produce heat within a boiler, converting water into steam which then expands through a turbine producing useful work.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Final project report on grocery store management system..pdfKamal Acharya
In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.
Student information management system project report ii.pdfKamal Acharya
Our project explains about the student management. This project mainly explains the various actions related to student details. This project shows some ease in adding, editing and deleting the student details. It also provides a less time consuming process for viewing, adding, editing and deleting the marks of the students.
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.

8. HAND FIRING
Various Types of Hand Fired Grates
This is a simple method of firing coal
into the furnace. It requires no capital
investment. It is used for smaller plants.
This method of fuel firing is
discontinuous process, and there is a
limit to the size of furnace which can be
efficiently fired by this method.
9. Hand fired furnaces are simple in design and can burn the fuel successfully but they have
some disadvantages also mentioned below:
(i) The efficiency of a hand fired furnace is low.
(ii) Attending to furnace requires hard manual labour.
(iii) Study process of fuel feed is not maintained.
13. Types of Overfeed Stoker:
These Over feed stokers are used for large capacity boiler
installation where the coal is burnt with pulverisation
1. Travelling grate stoker:
(A) Chain grate type
(B) Bar grate type
2. Spreader Stoker
Note: Pulverised fuel firing system the coal is reduce to a fine powder
with the help of grinding mill and then projected into the combustion
chamber with the help of hot air current
28. Chimney:-
The most common method to achieve this difference in pressure, the draught, is to
provide a chimney. Chimney is a tall hollow structure, which creates the required draught
due to difference in pressure from the ground level to some altitude in the atmosphere.
1.Chimneys are made of steel, bricks or concrete.
2.Brick and concrete chimneys are generally used as they have a longer life.
3.The average life of concrete chimneys is about 50 years.
4.The life of steel chimneys is about 25 years, which depends upon the maintenance and
care taken to prevent corrosion.
5.Chimneys ere provided with lightning conductor to protect from thunder lightning and
aircraft warning light as they are at higher altitudes.
29. Draught (or Draft) system:-
1.Draught systems are essential for flue gas propagation.
2.Flue gas propagation is the process of movement of the hot gases from the combustion
chamber through boiler pipes, economizer, air pre-heater and finally to the chimney.
3.The function of draught is to supply required quantity of air for combustion, propagate
the flues and remove the flues from the system.
4.A difference in pressure is required to move the air through the fuel bed to produce a
flow of hot gases i.e., propagation of the flue gases through the boiler, economizer, pre
heater and to the chimney by overcoming the pressure losses in the system.
5.This difference in pressure required maintaining a constant flow of air, through the
boiler systems and finally to discharge the hot flues to the atmosphere through chimney
is termed the draught
48. SMOKE AND DUST REMOVAL
The disposal smoke to the atmosphere is not desirable due to the following reasons :
1. A smoky atmosphere is less healthful than smoke free air.
2. Smoke is produced due to incomplete combustion of coal. This will create a big
economic loss due to loss of heating value of coal.
3. In a smoky atmosphere lower standards of cleanliness are prevalent. Buildings,
clothings, furniture etc. becomes dirty due to smoke. Smoke corrodes the metals and
darkens the paints.
In coal fed furnaces the products of combustion contain particles of solid matter
floating in suspension. This may be smoke or dust. The production of smoke indicates that
combustion conditions are faulty and amount of smoke produced can be reduced by
improving the furnace design.
TYPES OF DUST COLLECTORS
The various types of dust collectors are as follows :
1. Mechanical dust collectors.
2. Electrical dust collectors.
