Demand for electric power during peak periods in summer is a vital concern for many utilities in the fast-moving world. From the demand point of view on the grid and cost to the consumer, it is quite wise to install, energy efficient evaporative coolers rather than conventional air conditioners. Evaporative cooling has a great many advantages over other cooling processes. Due to the non-pollution creating environment, it is considered as one of the suitable ways to cool ones workplace or living place because of the fact that it uses fresh air and replaces the air time to time, quite frequently, an hour. Due to recirculation of air, smells and allergens are expelled. It bases on a natural process of air cooled by water, it won’t dry out the air, or irritate human skin, eyes, or other external parts of the human body. It allows the doors to be left open for one to sustain the heat of summer. Moreover, evaporative cooling is an inexpensive cooling option which enhances the lifestyle of people. However, evaporative cooling requires an abundant water and is efficient when the relative humidity is low. Padding media play a major role in determining cooling efficiency the comparative performance of Desert Coolers employing four different pads in terms of cooling efficiency, air velocity, and water consumption for a sustainable and economic application. In real practice, we use aspen, coconut coir, as cooling pads in desert coolers.

Live food organisms include all plants (phytoplankton) and animal (zooplankton) lives grazed upon by economically important fishes. Phytoplankton’s are generally eaten by zooplankton. Thus, phytoplankton forms the basis of the food chain. Live foods are able to swim in water column and are constantly available to fish and shellfish larvae are likely to stimulate larval feeding response Most of the fish and shellfish larvae in nature feed on small phytoplanktonic and zoo planktonic organisms. The success in the hatchery production of fish fingerlings for stocking in the grow-out production system is largely dependent on the availability of suitable live food for feeding fish larvae, fry and fingerlings. Live food organisms contain all the nutrients such as essential proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids and hence are commonly known as “living capsules of nutrition”. Providing appropriate live food at proper time play a major role in achieving maximum growth and survival of the young ones of finfish and shellfish.

Security is a prime concern in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) because of its inherent vulnerabilities. The open and dynamic environment of MANET makes it vulnerable to various security attacks. In this research work we have developed a unique correlation based IDS model for detection of DDOS attack in IMANET (Internet based Mobile Ad hoc Networks). The DDOS attack model is based on parameters which include (probe interval, rate, read interval, read length etc) and the detection and response model is based on the concept of opposing correlation in which the historical covariance values selected defines normal and abnormal threshold is compared with current covariance values in an iterative manner which in shows that both strong and weak covariance is also taken into consideration. Pair wise covariance helps IDS to analyze three routing parameters which are essential for evaluating performance of any MANET. These include PDR, PLR, control messages (Hello, ACK, REQ, and REP). Montecarlo simulation model used here gives us real kind of scenarios which help us to give insight and build sub systems. Proposed algorithm is better in terms of being sensitive and more reliable.

This study is an examination of an ideal reinforced concrete rectangular water tank resting on ground under the effect of earthquake (lateral) forces. A linear three-dimensional finite element analysis on Staad pro software have been used to analyse the tank response. The variable analysis parameters considered are the aspect ratio (tank height to length ratio) and tank water level, while the tank wall thickness is taken as a constant. Hydrodynamic forces exerted by liquid on tank wall shall be considered in the analysis in addition to hydrostatic forces. These hydrodynamic forces are calculated with the help of spring-mass model of tanks. When a tank containing liquid vibrates, the liquid exerts impulsive and convective hydrodynamic pressure on the tank wall and the tank base in addition to the hydrostatic pressure. In order to show the effect of hydro-dynamic pressure in the analysis, tank can be idealized by an equivalent spring-mass model, which includes the effect of tank wall-liquid interaction. The parameters of this model depend on geometry of the tank. In general, the results show that, there is a smooth increase in the moment and displacement of both hydrostatic and hydrodynamic analysis with a decrease in aspect ratio. The top displacement and moment for the hydrodynamic effects are greater than the hydrostatic results and it is observed that the maximum hydrodynamic moment is higher than the corresponding maximum hydrostatic moment. Likewise, the displacement obtained from hydrodynamic analysis is more than the corresponding hydrostatic value.

The problem faced by farmers who work on small fields while harvesting crops as it takes a lot of time, labour and effort to cut the crops manually. Although Harvesting machines are already available in the market but these are quite large and costly. Since farmers with small lands have no such large usage and also harvesting is done only twice or thrice in a year, it becomes difficult for small farmers to afford such kind of a machine. So, it becomes essential to make a portable and cost efficient semi or fully automatic crop cutting machine. To achieve this aim, a lot of ground research has been done in this project wherein various farmers of our village were met and their problems were understood. Based on all the findings, a design for a crop cutting machine has been developed which is expected to help small scale farmers. A prototype has been developed which is easy to operate and can be used for efficient and effortless harvesting of crops. The model so constructed, can be used by small scale farmers for increasing their profits by decreasing labor and machinery cost.

The project is designed to control the speed of a single phase induction motor in three steps by using cyclo convertor technique by thyristors. A.C. motors have the great advantages of being relatively inexpensive and very reliable. Induction motors in particular are very robust and therefore used in many domestic appliances such as washing machines, vacuum cleaners, water pumps, and used in industries as well. The induction motor is known as a constant-speed machine, the difficulty of varying its speed by a cost effective device is one of its main disadvantages. As the AC supply frequency cannot be changed, so this project uses a thyristor controlled cycloconverter which enables the control of speed in steps for an induction motor. The microcontroller used in this project is Atmega 328P, a mobile phone-bluetooth control switch is provided to select the desired speed range (F, F/2 and F/3) of operation of the induction motor. These switches are interfaced to the microcontroller. The status of the switches enables the microcontroller to deliver the pulses to trigger the SCRs in a dual bridge. Thus, the speed of the induction motor can be achieved in three steps i.e. (F, F/2 and F/3). This very concept can be further enhanced and implemented to control the speed of a three phase induction motor. It can also be coupled with _ring angle control for any desired speed.
