    Weibull Rayleigh 20, 30 40 40 10 4.86 / 2.11 / 75.04 / 40 Weibull Rayleigh

    Abstract The wind power potential at Monlan Royal Project, Chiang Mai Province, THAILAND was studied based on the Weibull and Rayleigh distribution model. The wind speed data and wind direction was averaged and recorded every 10 minutes. The wind speed was measured at a height of 20, 30 and 40 m above ground level by cup type anemometer. The wind direction was measured by wind vane at a height of 40 m above ground level. It was found that wind was from N.W. to S.E. direction. The yearly average of wind speed was 4.86 m/s with the standard deviation values of 2.11 m/s. Wind speed at night was high than wind speed at day. The yearly average of wind power value was 75.04 W/m2 at a height of 40 m above ground level. The Weibull distribution provided better power density estimations than the Rayleigh distribution.

    A Study of Using Emulsion of Heavy Oil and Water in a Thermal Oil Boiler

    *

    126 10140 [email protected]

    580 kW (W=0%) 11.8%, 18.0% 22.0% (W/O, 11.8%; W/O, 18.0%; W/O, 22.0%) 11.8% 81.04% 85.49% 5.20% 9.16% NOx SO2 Abstract Since heavy oil is low quality fuel, it is difficult to get complete combustion. This research aims to study the use of heavy oil mixed with water in the form of emulsion in order to improve combustion efficiency and to find out an appropriate ratio between heavy oil and water in emulsion. The experiments were conducted in a combustion chamber of thermal oil boiler with 580 kW capacity. Fuels used in this study are heavy oil (W=0%) and water-in-oil emulsion, 11.8%, 18.0% and 22.0% (W/O, 11.8%; W/O, 18.0%; W/O, 22.0%) by volume, respectively. The results show that the appropriate ratio between water and heavy oil is at 11.8% by volume. At this ratio, the thermal efficiency of hot oil boiler increases from 81.04% to 85.49%. Fuel saving is 5.20% fuel when there was no burner tune up. Fuel could be saved to 9.16% when the burner was tuned up to control excess air. In

    addition, NOx and SO2, from flue gas, tend to decrease when the percentage of water in heavy oil increases. micro-explosion micro-explosion NOx

    Abstract

    Submicron-sized aerosol particles, defined as aerosols with particle diameters less than 1 m, suspended in air have significant effects on the human health, global climate, air quality and processes in various industries such as food, pharmaceutical and medical, electronic and semiconductor industries. Automotive engines have long been recognized as a major source of submicron-sized aerosol particles. Development of aerosol detection and size distribution measurement methods has been primarily motivated by the need to find better means of monitoring and controlling indoor and outdoor aerosols for pollution and process control industry. In this study, a submicron electrical aerosol detection system for measuring particle number concentration in the size range between 1 nm 1 m using electrostatic charge measurement technique was developed. It consists of a size selective inlet, a particle charging system, an ion trap, a Faraday cup electrometer, a signal conditioning and processing system, and an I/O control and human-computer interface. In this system, an aerosol sample first passes through the size selective inlet to remove particles outside the measurement size range based on their aerodynamic diameter, and then pass through the unipolar corona charger that sets a charge on the particles and enter the ion trap to remove the free ions. After the ion trap, the charged particles then enter the Faraday cup electrometer for measuring ultra low current about 10-12 A induced by charged particles collected on the filter in Faraday cup corresponding to the number concentration of particles. Signal current is then recorded and processed by a data acquisition system. A detailed description of the operating principle of the system as well as main components was presented. The performance of the prototype electrometer circuit used in this work was evaluated and compared with a commercial electrometer and good agreement was found from the comparison. Finally, the preliminary experimental testing results were also shown and discussed.

    Keywords: aerosol, particle, Faraday cup, electrometer 1. Introduction Detection and measurement of aerosol particles have become an important topic in atmospheric pollution monitoring and source characterization. In recent years considerable interest has been shown to submicron-sized aerosol particles, defined as aerosols with particle diameters less than 1 m, for two main reasons. First, such particles have been associated with adverse health effects in areas of high concentrations, and second, aerosols are believed to have a significant influence on atmospheric quality, climate at a local and global scale and processes in various industries such as food, pharmaceutical and medical, electronic and semiconductor industries [1]. A submicron-sized aerosol particle instruments have been developed to monitoring indoor and outdoor aerosols for pollution and process control industry for this purpose [2, 3]. There are several commercial instruments using various methods of detecting and measuring the size distribution and number concentration of particles. Available instruments include a Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer (SMPS) using electrical mobility of particles [4], a Condensation Particle Counter (CPC) which uses particle growth and optical property [5, 6], an Electrical Aerosol Detector (EAD) which uses electrostatic charge measurement technique [7], and an Electrical Low Pressure Impactor (ELPI) using inertia impaction of particles under low pressure [8]. These commercial instruments are widely used for measuring airborne ultra fine particles and provide high-resolution measurement, but they are very expensive and larges sizes. According to the instruction manual for CPC (Model 3010, TSI Inc), a CPC does not operate in ambient temperatures outside the control range of 10oC to 34oC, and the pump and flow sensor of a CPC cannot control the flow when the pressure at the aerosol inlet, the make up air inlet, or the pump exhaust is too high or too low [6]. In addition, the CPC should be carefully moved in caution to protect the optics contamination from

    working fluid like alcohol (C4H9OH) [6].

    The movability of instruments should be considered in monitoring airborne aerosol particles. To avoid this problem, an inexpensive detector, suitable for detection of particle number concentration in the submicron size range, was built and experimentally tested in this study. This system is based on unipolar corona charging and electrostatic detection of highly charged particles. A detailed description of the operating principle of the sensor was presented. The performance of the prototype electrometer circuit used in this work as well as the preliminary experimental testing results were also shown and discussed. 2. A Submicron Electrical Aerosol Detection System The following paragraphs give a detailed description of main components of the detection system. Figure 1 shows the schematic diagram of the submicron electrical aerosol detection system, developed in this study. The system is composed of a flow system is regulated and controlled by means of mass flow controllers with a vacuum pump, a size selective inlet to remove the particle outside the measurement range, a particle charger using corona discharge technique to charge the particles, an ion trap to remove the high electrical mobility of free ions after charger, a Faraday cup to collect charged particles, an electrometer for measuring signal current from the Faraday cup, and a computer controlled data acquisition and management system. 2.1 Size Selective Inlet The inertial impactor was used to remove particles larger than a known aerodynamic size, upstream of the system. The aerodynamic particle size at which the particles are separated is called the cut-point diameter. In the impactor, the aerosol flow is accelerated through a nozzle directed at a flat plate. The impaction plate deflects the flow streamlines to a 90o bend. Particles with

    sufficient inertia are unable to follow the streamlines and impact on the plate. Smaller particles are able to follow the streamlines and avoid contact with the plate and exit the impactor. The particle collection efficiency of the impactor, E, is determined from [9]

    where Cc is the Cunningham slip correction factor, is the gas viscosity, D is the acceleration nozzle diameter, Stk50 is the Stokes number for the particle cut-off diameter at 50% collection efficiency, p is the particle density, and Qa is the aerosol flow rate. 2.2 Particle Charger The corona-needle charger used in the present study consists of a coaxial corona-needle electrode placed along the axis of a cylindrical tube with tapered ends [10]. The needle electrode is made of a stainless steel rod 3 mm in diameter and 49 mm length, ended in a sharp tip. The angle of the needle cone was about 9o and the tip radius was about 50 m, as estimated under a microscope. The outer cylindrical is made of aluminum tube 30 mm in diameter and 25 mm length with conical shape. The angle of the cone was about 30o and the orifice diameter was about 4 mm. The distance between the needle electrode

    and the cone apex is 2 mm.

    Figure 2. Schematic diagram of the Faraday cup. The corona electrode head is connected to a DC high voltage supply, while the outer electrode is grounded. An adjustable DC high voltage power supply is used to maintain the corona voltage difference, typically of the order of 1.0 5.0 kV. The corona discharge generates ions which move rapidly in the strong corona discharge field toward the outer electrode wall. Aerosol flow is directed across the corona discharge field and is charged by ion-particle collisions via diffusion charging and field charging mechanisms. 2.3 Ion Trap The ion trap was used to remove the high electrical mobility of free ions after the charger. As the free ions can potentially reach the detector and ruin the measurement, a trap field is introduced just after the corona charger. The trap field is across the aerosol flow and has a 200 V, and the trap penetration, Ptrap, is given by [1]

    where Zi is the mobility of ion (equal to 0.00014 m2/V.s for the positive ion), V is the trap voltage, L is the trap length, and r1 and r2 are the inner and outer radii of the electrode, respectively. 2.4 Faraday Cup Figure 2 shows schematic diagram of the Faraday cup. To completely shield the HEPA (high efficiency particulate air) filter collecting the charged particles, external case is made of a stainless steel, and HEPA filter is electrically disconnected from the external case with Teflon stand. The Faraday cup plays a role to prevent electric noise to measure very low current caused by charged particles, which are collected by an internal HEPA filter. If the object of measurement is not shielded completely, noise which is 1000 times of resolutions to

    be expected. To transfer charges gathered at the HEPA filter to an electrometer that is outside the faraday cage, BNC connector is connected to HEPA filter. Because material of HEPA filter is conductor such as glass fiber, charges collected in the filter can move to the electrometer through the low noise cable and BNC connector without delay. In the case of existing aerosol electrometer airflow is curved at 90 degrees while air is drifted from sampling probe to the filter. It can become the cause of charge loss. To solve this problem airflow into faraday cage is straighten not to change the direction of the flow and loss the charge. The particle number concentration, Np, is related to the signal current, Ip, at HEPA filter is given by [11]

This circuit is a simple current-to-voltage converter, where the voltage drop caused by a current flowing through a resistor is measured. The circuit adopted two cascaded negative feedback amplifiers. Extra component in this circuit is primarily for fine offset voltage adjustment and input/output protection. A 12V power supply capable of providing 100 mA is required. The feedback capacitor and RC low-pass filter were used to reduce high-frequency noise and to prevent oscillations of the amplifier output [12]. In order to avoid expensive

    construction, commercially-available low-cost monolithic operational amplifiers were used.

    Figure 3. Schematic diagram of the sensitive electrometer circuit.

    The commercially-available operational amplifiers used in this circuit is the LMC662, which was designed for low current measurement and featured ultra-low input bias current (2 fA maximum) and low offset voltage drift (1.3 V/oC) [13]. The output voltage, Vo, of this circuit is given by the following equation:

    where Ii is the input current, R1 and R5 are the input resistors of the first and second amplifiers, respectively, R2 and R3 are the feedback resistors of the first amplifier, and R6 is the feedback resistors of the second amplifier. This circuit gives an output voltage of 10 mV per 1 pA of input signal current. The electrometer circuit was calibrated with a current injection circuit, high-impedance current source [12]. It consists of an appropriately high-standard resistor (10 G) and an adjustable voltage source in the range between 0 5 V. The output current of this circuit can simply be calculated from the Ohms law.

    detection system. The range of the output current is from 1 pA to 10 pA. It should be noted that the electrometer circuit input was operated at virtual ground potential during calibration and subsequent current measurement. The output voltage from the electrometer circuit was measured and recorded by a highly-accurate digital voltmeter. The voltage reading was then translated into the current measurement. The comparison of measured current from this work and a commercial electrometer, Keithley model 6517A, with high-accuracy current source is shown in Figure 4. It was shown that the measured current was rising linearly as input current increased. Generally, the currents measured from this work were found to agree very well with those measured by the Keithley model 6517A. Very small difference about 5% was obtained. 2.6 Data Acquisition and Processing System The measurement is controlled and data sampled by an external personal computer via RS-232 serial port cable. Software running on an external computer was developed, based on Microsoft Visual Basic programming for all data processing. The software is able to display the particle number concentration. 3. Preliminary Experimental Testing Figure 5 shows the schematic diagram of the experimental setup for preliminary testing of the submicron electrical aerosol detection system. The combustion aerosol generator was used to generate a polydisperse carbonaceous diffusion flame aerosol for this experiment. Stable polydisperse aerosols with particle number concentrations of approximately 1012 1014 particles/m3 were obtained [14]. The particle size obtained by scanning electron microcopy (SEM) was in the range between approximately 10 nm 10 m. Figure 6 shows the particle morphologies of agglomerates obtained from the scanning electron micrograph, taken with a JEOL JSM-6335F Field Emission Scanning

    The particles were first dried with the diffusion drier. Thus, any remaining water was removed. Before aerosol particles entering the system, the particles were diluted and mixed with clean air, which had been filtered through a HEPA filter, in the mixing chamber. The system was operated at aerosol flow rate in the range of 1.0 4.0 L/min. To reduce errors due to time variations in the aerosol concentrations, repeat measurements were commenced at least 5 min after the introduction of the aerosol into the measurement system. In this paper, four different operating conditions of the aerosol flow rate were preliminary experimental tested on the particle number concentration measurements of the system. Variation of aerosol flow rate was carried out by adjusting the inlet mass flow controller in the range of 1.0 to 4.0 l/min and the operating pressure was about 1000 mbar. Figure 7 shows variation of measured particle number concentration and signal current with aerosol flow rates. The measured signal current and the particle number concentration were found in the range of approximately 90 700 pA and 3 7 1013 particles/m3, respectively. It was found that an increase in the aerosol flow rate resulted in an increase in measured signal current corresponding to the particle number concentration because the signal current was approximately proportional to the aerosol flow rate. 4. Conclusions and Future Work The system for detecting the number concentration of submicron-sized aerosol particles with a Faraday cup electrometer has been presented and described in this paper. The detecting method was based on unipolar corona charging and electrostatic detection of highly charged particles. It was able to detect particle number concentration in the submicron size range. A prototype of the system has been constructed and evaluated. Preliminary experimental testing results obtained were very promising. It was demonstrated that the system can be used in detecting the number concentration of the particles. The following paragraphs give specific recommendations for further research work on both the

    theoretical and experimental parts of the detector development.

    There are various techniques and devices exist for generating aerosol samples to testing and calibration of any instrument that measures aerosol particles. One of the most widely used techniques of generating monodisperse aerosol particles is by using the Tandem DMA method. The main advantage of this method is the wide range of particle sizes it can generate. Further research, may involve the Tandem DMA.

    Calibration and comparison of the instrument with other particle measuring devices such as SMPS, CPC, EAD, and ELPI should be conducted further.

    In order to measure transient behavior of airborne particles, such as those found in automotive exhaust gas, the time response of the instrument should be further improved.

    Abstract

    In this study, the optimal placement of biogas plant from cow dung for members of co-operative was studied to maximize the benefit of plant with consideration of transportation costs, biogas production and environmental effects. Geographic information system (GIS) was applied to evaluate the interested locations of biogas plants where are high household density area, high cow density area, dairy co-operative, and location of local community leader. The scope of this study covered 15 households with 150

    cows around the dairy co-operative, located in Lamprayaklang Reform Land, Saraburi Province. According to the result, the dairy co-operative is the optimal placement of biogas plant. The quantity of cows at the dairy co-operative is lower than that of cows at the other locations but the transportation cost at the dairy co-operative is the lowest. The profit at the selected site is 111,189 baht per year and the greenhouse gas can be reduced up to 262 tons CO2 equivalent per year.

    DME (DI-Methyl Ether) , DME DME DME Abstract

    DME (DI-Methyl Ether) is a clean alternative fuel, suitable for compression ignition engine, which can replace diesel fuel without black exhaust smoke. However, since DME contains lower heating value than diesel fuel, its torque at full load becomes lower as well. A study on combustion energy concluded the following information: Energy Release derived from pressure data in small direct injection engine (DME used as primary fuel), shows the ignition delay is short and rates of change in pressure and energy release are high. The data in this study is potentially significant development towards the higher efficient application of DME as a substitute fuel.

    Abstract

    The continuous increase in oil price and the awareness of global warming have recently brought interest in alternative energy. Biomass is one of the resources for alternative energy that has been utilized in several countries, especially in Europe, where wood pellets have been widely used. For Thailand, where agriculture is one of the significant driving forces for the production of the country, biomass is inevitably been paid a special attention due to the abundance of wasted biomass from agriculture and food industry. Although there are some researches on the production of wood pellets and the design of pellet

    machines, there is little information about the properties of some raw materials. Those properties will affect the pellet quality, the design of pellet machines, and the design of energy conversion system. This project is therefore initiated to preliminarily study the quality of available raw materials that have potential to be used as fuels, including Para-rubber wood, palm leaves, palm trunks, and palm empty-fruit-bunches. From the study, it can be said in general that Para-rubber wood, palm leaves, palm trunks, and palm empty-fruit-bunches contain chemical composition that may cause high amount of ash content, hard deposit, emission, and corrosion of machine components. In addition, the calorific values of these raw materials are found to be lower than the standard value. For chemically-treated Para-rubber wood, a large amount of heavy metals are found, which will cause high ash content and emission. The designs of systems that deal with these raw materials, therefore, need to pay a special attention to the quality of these raw materials. Although the use of wood pellets has been successful in some other countries, the difference in raw materials will be a critical variable in choosing appropriate technology to utilize biomass and will determine its success.

    300 14 300 Abstract At the present, biodiesel has been widely promoted in Thailand especially in agriculture section. To reduce the use of petroleum diesel and the budget for energy import are key factors for promotion of biodiesel. Single cylinder diesel engines, which have been use for agriculture such as water pump, electric generator and agricultural machinery, is the first target of promoting. Hence, this paper aims to investigate engine performance, black smoke capacity, fuel consumption and effects of long term usage when fueled 14 hp single cylinder diesel

    engine fueled with biodiesel. The comparison with fossil diesel shows little difference in torque and power, small increase on fuel consumption but obvious decrease on black smoke. Nonetheless, the 300 hr durability test with water pump application reveals some problems in fuel filter and injector. 1.

    Abstract

    This paper presents the research on jatropha oil. The research aims to verify the possibility of using the mixed-fuel between jatropha oil and gasoline. Gasoline used in the research has a octane number of 91. The ratio of mixed-fuel is 5% jatropha oil and 95% gasoline. The physical properties of the jatropha oil and mixed-fuel are presented. The comparisons of using this mixed-fuel are carried on under the aspects of performance, fuel consumption, emission and wearing. The tested vehicle is the 4-stroke carburetor engine motorcycle. The mixed-fuel acidity and viscosity exhibit insignificant change after the several weeks period. No separation of the jatropha oil and gasoline is detected. After the road test, using Bangkok driving pattern, the engine is able to operate with the mixed-fuel. The maximum torque and maximum power of the mixed-fuel are 2.49% and 5.35% less than the pure gasoline respectively. Fuel consumption of the mixed-fuel is 6.31% higher. Emissions on THC and CO are less than the standard as well. Physical wearing on parts is not different from the engine using gasoline octane 91. The long term effect of mixed-fuel to engines is also under investigated. Keywords; Blended fuel performance/Jatropha oil/Gasoline engine

    5,800 Abstract From the current energy crisis that has driven the price of fossil fuel around the world, there is a great interest to seek alternative fuel. One of the attractive candidates is ethanol, which does not require complicated processing technology, and can use existing infrastructure from ethanol industry. In particular, the strong and clear supporting governmental policy toward ethanol utilization as transportation fuel in the forms of E10 (octane 91 and 95) and E20 (octane 95) is set forth to reduce 20 million liters/day gasoline consumption. The present study evaluates the feasibility to use anhydrous ethanol in Rotax 912S engine for 2-seaters small aircraft STOL Ch 701. This Rotax engine is certified to fuel with AVGAS 100LL or ULG95 (unleaded gasoline with octane 95). Engine performance is measured with the force sensor when the engine is attached to the propeller while the fuel consumption and emission are monitored for various fuels, comprising of ULG95, Gasohol E10 (Octane 95), Gasohol E20, self-blend E60 and E70. Since ULG95 is used as control set, the engine is tuned with ULG95 prior to being tests with other fuels. The results show that Rotax 912S engine can be fueled with E10 and E20 of both Octane 95 without statistically significant loss but higher fuel consumption at high speed (> 5,000 rpm). The corresponding emission from E20 is different from E10 or ULG95. On the other hand, E60 and E70 cannot be used n Rotax 912S engine since the engine cannot reach high speed of 5,800 rpm.
