Essays on Relative Humidity

The Problem

For this case study, we focus on an application of regression analysis in engineering. In this case study, we use data to build a model for predicting average electrical output, y. In this case study, we use data from a Combined Cycle Power Plant to build a model for average electrical output, y. We examine the residuals, the deviations between the predicted and the actual electrical output levels, to detect an independent variable omitted from the regression model.

The Data – Source: UCI Machine Learning Repository

A combined cycle power plant (CCPP) is composed of steam turbines (ST), gas turbines (GT), and heat recovery steam generators . In ...

Definition of the project Objectives:

The objective of this project is to design a microcontroller based system to obtain the information regarding the temperature of a remote place. It is usually inconvenient getting the readings of temperature, pressure etc. from the places that are very distant. But the advancement in technology has made this task possible. Our main objective is to design such a system. For this we will use the infrastructure of the existing mobile network, which is based on GPRS technique. This project investigates on creating very low cost device which can be adapted to many different applications using some very basic programming, and joining ...

Introduction

Giraffe OmniBed is new medical technological device which brings together the features of a radiant warmer as well as an incubator. These top features are harmonized in a single device to make it a very effective medical device. The two features of a Giraffe OmniBed cater for traditional infant care products, and this makes the device pivotal in the medical industry. The device is manufactured and assembled in such a way as to minimize heat loss as much as possible. This also ensures thermal stability through its bi-directional characteristics. The design of this medical device helps the infant to get the optimal amount of ...

For fog to be formed there must be either cool air or high moisture in the air which all contribute to relative humidity that is at a hundred percent. Fog rarely forms in Tucson since the air is dry with no moisture and at the same time it is hot. Some of the types of fog that one is likely to see in Tucson are evaporation fog and radiation fog. The two kinds of fog differ in their appearance and their process of formation. For instance, radiation fog is formed when the dry air cools rapidly at night apart ...

Executive summary A product’s life cycle and its source industry are characterized by maturity, growth and also the eventual decline. Better and new technologies besides changing the tastes of a consumer exhibit the speed of decline of an incumbent, commoditization, and finally death. However, the humble Corticeira Amorim company has remained strongly from this terrible norm, portraying a fascinating situation of the survival of an industry and dominance for long. Cork owned the monopoly and it has ...

Weather Project: The Sling Psychrometer

One of the most important aspects of Environmental Studies involves the study of meteorology or the weather. Studying the weather is important because it can impact an individual’s day to day activities and productivity. In a community, weather predictions are also necessary in disaster risk reduction especially now that the world is experiencing climate change. A good weather prediction allows an individual or community to plan ahead in a more scientific perspective. In this subject, we were tasked to operate and write about a weather instrument and I chose the sling psychrometer. I chose it because I thought it was ...

This study revealed that Kevlar and Kevlar/wool fabric thermal properties. The effect of fabric physical properties on thermal comfort was analyzed. The tests conducted on moisture management techniques were: sweating guarded hot plate (SGHP), moisture management tester, and surface tester. A conclusion for the paper is given which recommends the use of Kevlar and Kevlar/wool in the textile industry. The report examines the different thermal properties of Kevlar A363 and Kevlar/wool in an effort to determine which fabric is best suited for different weather conditions. In addition, the tests carried out shows clearly the difference in thermal properties of ...
