Aluminium (Al) based metal matrix composites (MMC) have many
potential engineering applications. There has been a critical need
for casting of cost-effective MMC. Not much work hitherto been
reported for casting of Al based MMC with vacuum moulding. An
approach to macro-model the micro hardness and dimensional accuracy
for casting of MMC of Al and its alloys have been proposed and
applied. Relationship between micro hardness, dimensional accuracy
and other parameter has been deduced by using Taguchi's technique
L9 orthogonal array (OA). Results indicate that the hardness of MMC
developed depends significantly on the component volume, pouring
temperature and composition. The comparison with experimental
results will also serve as future validation of the model.
The conventional fossil fuel resources for power generation are
fast depleting in India and there is growing concern over the
environmental degradation caused by conventional power plants. In
order to combat these challenges the renewable energy sources and
biomass in particular are expected to be wider spread and play a
significant role in in India's energy sector. This book examines
utilization agricultural biomass in energy sector for power and
densified fuel. The potential of unused agricultural biomass for
power generation in Punjab state has been determined. A model has
been developed to optimize the collection and transportation of the
biomass to optimum number of power plants in Punjab. To overcome
the difficulty in handling of loose biomass, reduce transportation
cost and produce a uniform, clean, stable fuel, the densification
process has been reviewed. The densification technologies, system
variables, compaction models and economics have been studied in
order to set up a optimized densification plant. The emission of
pollutants in India due to biomass energy has also been studied.
The book in overall explores the optimal usage of unused
agricultural biomass.
