Reviews includes Energy and Exergy analysis of thermal Power Plant system based on advance thermodynamic topics Exergy analysis which is the combination of first law and second law of Thermodynamics and highlights inefficiencies of a system. In entire reviews the need for the systematic design of heat exchangers using a second law-based procedure is recalled and discussed, and then, second-law based performance evaluation criteria for heat exchangers are presented. These criteria have been grouped into two classes: the criteria that use entropy as evaluation parameter and the criteria that use exergy as evaluation parameter. They present the entropy as an evaluation parameter in the following forms Entropy generation rate; Entropy generation number; Augmentation entropy generation number; Heat exchange reversibility norm (HERN); Local entropy generation number, and also use of exergy as evaluation parameter in the forms of various analysis of operating conditions of the systems.","PeriodicalId":13972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74461444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different algorithms have been developed to reduce the size of an image like JPEG, PNG, SPIHT, etc. In this paper, we mainly focus on the JPEG image compression algorithm because it is mostly used in the Internet and Multimedia based applications. In JPEG, quantization tables and masking tables are used as the main source for the compression of the data. Based on our review, we identify that in literature less attention is given to analyze the effect of the masking tables during the implementation of the JPEG algorithms. Therefore, to address this research issue, in this paper, we analyze the effect of the masking tables used during the JPEG image compression algorithms.","PeriodicalId":13972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75092301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Portable devices need prolonged battery life, which can be achieved by reducing the power dissipation. Substrate bias effect is a leakage power reduction technique. It describes the changes in the threshold voltage with respect to change in source to bulk voltage. The substrate bias effect is used to control the leakage current. The reverse bias voltage widens the depletion region, due to which the threshold voltage increases. In this paper a single bit low power full adder has been proposed with substrate bias effect. Simulation of low voltage high performance hybrid single bit full adder cell also has been presented. By using the reverse biasing technique we have achieved power reduction in the single bit full adder cell. The power, delay and, power delay product (PDP) results have been obtained for proposed and existing designs with varying supply voltages. The proposed design shows PDP of 253.38fJ as compared to 277.23fJ of low voltage high performance hybrid single bit full adder cell at 1.8 Vdd. Simulation result show that the proposed design also performs better at varying temperature conditions. The power delay product has been also plotted versus the different reverse bias voltages applied in the proposed technique. All the work has been done in 180nm CMOS technology.","PeriodicalId":13972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73592299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To avoid this it is necessary to find an alternative fuel to Diesel which should be produced from renewable resources. The fuels which are produced from these resources are termed as alternative fuels. In the present work, experimental investigations were carried out on a single cylinder 4-stroke, naturally aspirated, direct injection and water cooled CI engine with Diesel and waste vegetable biodiesel blends as fuel. From this Brake Thermal Efficiency (BTE), Brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and Exhaust Emissions were studied. From the experimental results it is observed that obtained Brake Thermal Efficiency is better for bio-diesel blend B20 with minimum Brake Specific Fuel Consumption. It is also observed that there is a reduction in the quantity of Carbon Monoxide and Hydro Carbon and increased exhaust gas temperature when compared with Diesel as fuel.","PeriodicalId":13972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89114667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a study is crucial for gaining useful insight into the toughening mechanisms existing in rubber modified systems. A DGEBA based epoxy resin was first modified with varying concentrations (0-15 wt. %) of the liquid rubber. Dogbone shaped specimens of the cast plaques of the modified epoxies were tested under uniaxial tensile loading. The fracture surface was elucidated with the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was observed that biphasic morphology characterized with continuous epoxy phase and microvoids distributed throughout the epoxy domain develop in the modified epoxies. Cavitation of rubber particles under crack tip stresses is the reason behind development of these microvoids. The diameter of these microvoids were analyzed using the image analysis technique and was observed to increase with the concentration of rubber. Prevalent toughening mechanisms were visualized in the SEM micrographs necessary for the development of tougher and more ductile rubber modified epoxy systems.","PeriodicalId":13972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Engineering Research and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83980079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
