ABSTRACT Equal Channel Angular Extrusion (ECAE) is the extrusion method that involves the use of angular die to introduce plastic deformation on any metal especially aluminum which in turn improves its hardness. Lubricant’s role cannot be under estimated in the process as it requires reducing the high heat of deformation and extrusion pressure involved. The […]

Design and Performance Analysis of Solar Greenhouse Heating
ABSTRACT Climate change and ‘Greenhouse effect’ have been subjects of interest for many years due to their importance in achieving a ‘greener’ planet with energy efficiency and less GHG emissions. New technologies are enthused to be developed to succeed in this mission and as a result, different renewable power generation technologies have evolved over time. […]
Parametric ‘Useful’ Information Measure of Order Degree and Some Coding Theorem
ABSTRACT A parametric mean length is defined as the quantity , where is an integer, .This being the useful mean length of code words weighted by utilities, . Lower and Upper bounds for are derived in terms of ‘useful’ Renyi’s information measure for power probability distribution . [Full Text: PDF]
Heat Transfer Analysis of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger using Al2O3/SiC Nanofluid
ABSTRACT Heat exchanger plays a major role in the industrial process heating. Heat is transferred between fluids by convection and conduction through the walls of the heat exchanger. Heat transfer fluids have low thermal conductivity that greatly limits the heat exchanger efficiency. Various research works are carried out to enhance the thermal properties of the […]
Effects of Hydrogen Peroxide Treated Pineapple Leaf Powder on Mechanical Properties of High Density Polyethylene Composites
ABSTRACT The effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treated pineapple leaf powder (PALP) on the mechanical properties of high density polyethylene (HDPE) composites were studied. HDPE and PALP (untreated, and treated) composites were prepared by injection moulding technique. The filler (PALP) contents investigated were 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 wt %. Results showed that the […]
