Aerogel is a synthetic porous ultralight material derived from a gel, in which the liquid component of the gel has been replaced with a gas. The result is a solid with extremely low density[1] and low thermal conductivity. Nicknames include frozen smoke,[2] solid smoke, solid air, or blue smoke owing to its translucent nature and the way light scatters in the material. It feels like fragile expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam) to the touch. Aerogels can be made from a variety of chemical compounds.[3]
Aerogel was first created by Samuel Stephens Kistler in 1931, as a result of a bet[citation needed] with Charles Learned over who could replace the liquid in "jellies" with gas without causing shrinkage.[4][5]
Aerogels are produced by extracting the liquid component of a gel through supercritical drying. This allows the liquid to be slowly dried off without causing the solid matrix in the gel to collapse from capillary action, as would happen with conventional evaporation. The first aerogels were produced from silica gels. Kistler's later work involved aerogels based on alumina, chromia and tin dioxide. Carbon aerogels were first developed in the late 1980s.[citation needed]
Aerogel does not have a designated material with set chemical formula but the term is used to group all the material with a certain geometric structure.[6]

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.

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.
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.

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.

15. THEORY OF HEAT TRANSMISSION
• Rate of heat transfer depends on the thermal conductivity of material
• Low conductivity when the solid matter present is less
• Moisture can increase the conductivity by 0.6059W/mK at 20◦C
• Water, though have less conductivity value, can carry heat through
convection
• Conductivity of building materials vary depending on Bulk dry density and
Moisture content
• In gases, heat is transmitted through convection and radiation
Ref: “Thermal and acoustic insulation”, R.M.E.Diamant, P-4
16. CONDUCTION
• Amount of heat transferred proportional to the
difference in temperature
• Increases with the area of contact and
decreases with the perpendicular distance.
• Varies significantly with materials
• More in metals and lowest in organic foams
• Within a material, depends on bulk dry
density and moisture content
• Prominent in solids, moderately in liquids,
and least in gas
Ref: “Thermal and acoustic insulation” by R.M.E. Diamant. P-26
18. CONVECTION
• Fluid gets warmed up by contact with a
surface and moves away, carrying the heat
with it
• Could be “Forced” convection or “Free”
convection
• Part of fluid in touch with hot surface gets
warmed up, change density and moves away.
• Prominent in liquids and gases
Ref: SP41 – P 35
19. RADIATION
• Radiation can occur across vacuum
• Heat transfer is by electromagnetic
radiation
• When they travel at speed of light,
particles have a certain mass. When this
is stopped, Kinetic energy gets converted
into heat
• At night, heat radiates back to
atmosphere
• Prominent in solids, liquids and gases
Ref: SP41 – P 36
20. PROBLEMS IN EVALUATING INSULATION
PROPERTIES
• Walls, roofs, floors and windows are composite materials and their nature can vary
diurnally
• Influence of ventilation is prominent and cannot be measured easily
• Internal temperature differs from space to space and also during various hours of the
day
• During daytime, solar radiation is high and external surfaces will have a higher
temperature than ambient temperature, called “Sol-air Temperature”. At night surface
temperature will be less than surroundings due to “Radiation cooling”
Ref: “Thermal and acoustic insulation” by R.M.E. Diamant. P-28
22. PERIODIC HEAT FLOW
• Diurnal variation in temperature
produce an approximate 24hour cycle
of increasing and decreasing
temperature
• Heat absorbed during radiation is
emitted after sometime
• Time lag is the difference in time
between peaks of outside and interior
temperature peaks
• More the specific heat of material,
more will be the time lag
• Decrement factor = Ti(max) / To(max)
Ref: “Manual of tropical housing and building” by O.H.Koenigsberger, P-84

gets dampened and its function reduces
• Adequate ventilation is to be ensured to prevent condensation
Ref: “Thermal and acoustic insulation” by R.M.E. Diamant.
