The document discusses the history and principles of vapor absorption refrigeration systems. Some key points:
- Vapor absorption was first discovered in 1824 by Michael Faraday and the first machine was built in 1860. It uses a refrigerant (ammonia) that is absorbed into a solvent (water) for compression.
- Unlike vapor compression, it uses heat rather than mechanical energy to change the refrigerant's state. This allows it to be powered by waste heat or solar energy.
- The first domestic refrigerator using this technology was invented in 1925 and used ammonia, hydrogen, and water in a "three-fluid" system to eliminate the need for a pump.

A heat pipe is a device that efficiently transports thermal energy from one point to another using the latent heat of vaporized working fluid. It has a higher effective thermal conductivity than solid conductors. A heat pipe consists of a container, working fluid, and wick structure. Heat is absorbed in the evaporator section, vaporizing the fluid. The vapor moves through the container and condenses in the condenser section, releasing heat. Capillary action in the wick pumps the condensed fluid back to the evaporator. Heat pipes are used to cool electronics and aerospace components due to their high conductivity and ability to dissipate large heat fluxes over long distances.
This document discusses different types of vapor absorption refrigeration systems. It describes a simple system that uses an absorber, pump, generator and pressure reducing valve instead of a compressor. Ammonia vapor is absorbed by water in the absorber and heated in the generator to drive off the vapor. A practical system improves on this with accessories like an analyzer and rectifier. An Electrolux system uses ammonia, water and hydrogen as three fluids, with hydrogen increasing evaporation and ammonia as the refrigerant. Finally, lithium bromide absorption systems are mentioned.

The document discusses different components of a steam condenser system including condensers, cooling towers, and cooling ponds. It describes the functions of condensers in reducing turbine exhaust pressure and reusing condensed steam. Surface condensers are preferred over jet condensers as they allow for pure condensate reuse. Cooling can be achieved through natural or mechanical draft cooling towers, induced or forced draft designs, and through cooling ponds with different arrangements to maximize heat transfer from water to air.
Refrigerators and heat pumps transfer heat from a low-temperature medium to a high-temperature medium. They differ only in their objectives - refrigerators remove heat (cooling), while heat pumps supply heat.
The vapor-compression cycle is the most common refrigeration cycle. It involves four main components: evaporator, compressor, condenser, and expansion valve. Heat is absorbed in the evaporator and rejected in the condenser. The compressor raises the refrigerant pressure and temperature between these components.
The performance of vapor-compression refrigeration systems depends on factors like evaporator/condenser temperatures and pressures. Actual cycles are less efficient than ideal cycles due to irreversibilities like heat transfer across a temperature

However, the sheer volume of data generated by modern engineering systems and the increasing complexity of these systems have necessitated more advanced analytical tools, paving the way for AI.
AI offers the capability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make predictions with a level of speed and accuracy unattainable by traditional methods. This has profound implications for mechanical engineering, enabling more efficient design processes, predictive maintenance strategies, and optimized manufacturing operations. AI-driven tools can learn from historical data, adapt to new information, and continuously improve their performance, making them invaluable in tackling the multifaceted challenges of modern mechanical engineering.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
Rainfall intensity duration frequency curve statistical analysis and modeling...bijceesjournal
Using data from 41 years in Patna’ India’ the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981−2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall’ the historical rainfall data set for Patna’ India’ during a 41 year period (1981−2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 h and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval.
Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall.
Originality and value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELijaia
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

3. What is the REFRIGERANT?
The refrigerant is a heat carrying medium which
absorbs heat from space and rejects heat to outside the refrigerator.
Types of REFRIGERANT:
(1) NH3
(2) CO2
(3) Air
(4) R11 (Trichloro monofluoro methane) or Freon-11
(5) R12 (Dichlaro – difluro methane) or Freon-12
(6) R22 (Monochloro – difluro methane) or Freon-22
4. TYPES OF REFRIGERATORS
(1)Nature Refrigerator : Refrigeration effect produced by evaporation of liquid.
(2)Mechanical Refrigerator: Refrigeration effect produced by external source of
mechanical energy.

(II) Vapour Absorption Refrigerator
(III) Vapour Compression Refrigerator
Vapour Compression Refrigeration System (VCR)
• Most popular and widely used in refrigeration and air conditioning for both domestic and industrial
applications.
5. VAPOUR ABSORPTION REFRIGERATION SYSTEM (VAR)
• It was invented by a Frenchman , Carre in 1860.
• It is quite similar to Vapour Compression systems.
• There are two types of absorption system used in practice:
(a) NH3 – H2O system (NH3 as refrigerant and H2O as absorbent)
(b) H2O – LiBr system (H2O as refrigerant and LiBr as absorbent)
• In that refrigerant coming from evaporator is absorbed by absorber.
• In that the compressor is replaced by an absorber and generator.
• NH3 is most suitable refrigerant for this.
• NH3 is easily absorbed by water at low pressure and temperature , but at high pressure and
temperature , the solubility of NH in water is reduced.
6. •Mixture of water and ammonia is heated by generator, ammonia vapour is separated from water.
This principle is used in this system.
Here NH3 :- Refrigerant and H2O :- Absorbent
• The flow diagram of VAR is shown in figure and it
consist of evaporator , condenser , generator , absorber
, pump and expansion valve.
7. WORKING :-
• Low pressure and temperature vapour ammonia coming from evapourator enters in the absorber.
• Where ammonia is absorbed by weak solution coming from generator through throttle valve at point 5.
• Due to absorption of NH3 in water , solution becomes strong.
• During this process heat is released and rejected to cooling water.
• The strong solution from absorber is pumped into generator , where it is heated and NH3 is vapour separated
from solution .
• In generator heat is supplied from external source .
• The weak solution point 4 is flowing back to absorber through
throttle valve .
• Again weak solution in absorber absorbs NH3 vapour coming
from evaporator.
8. • NH3 vapour coming from generator (at point 6) passes through condenser and is condensed in condenser
and reject heat to cooling medium.
• Then liquid NH3 (at point 7) is throttled through expansion valve and it enters into evaporator (at point 8).
• In the evaporator NH3 evaporates by absorbing latent heat of evaporation to produce refrigerating effect.
• Thus the cycle is completed.
• In this system, work required is less compared to VCR , but external heat source for generator is required.
9. ADVANTAGES OF ABSORPTION SYSTEM
OVER COMPRESSION SYSTEM
• No moving part except pump-motor, which is comparatively smaller than
compressor system.
• Quiet in operation, low maintenance cost.
• Can work only with thermal energy as an input.
• Can be built for huge working capacities. (even for above 1000 TR)
• Space and auto control requirements favour absorption system.
