    1.1 General Evaporation is the process by which water is converted into gaseous state and is returned to the atmosphere as vapour. Evaporation is an important process in the hydrologic cycle preceding precipitation. It is the process by which water in the liquid form transforms into vapour through the transfer of energy. When water is converted from solid state to vapour state without passing through liquid state then it is called sublimation. In the atmosphere, evaporation occurs from the water…

    Analysis and optimisation of heat transfer rate in rectangular fins with through holes Chinmay P Patil (Author) B.E Student, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, LTCoE, Koparkhairane. Abstract—The most important factor in any heatsink is to dissipate heat as quickly as possible. This is due to the fact that these heatsinks are used usually on electronic circuits which can’t not withstand extreme temperatures and can endure damages. Thus to prevent such a damage design of proper heat sink is…

    by different authors [7,8,12]. Bottom friction (S_br) also has several different formulations: the empirical JONSWAP model of Hasselmann et al. [19], the drag law model of Collins [20] and the eddy viscosity model of Madsen et al. [21]. Energy dissipation due to depth-induced breaking (S_br) follows Battjes and Jansen [22] whereby the maximum wave height H_max in shallow water depth d is limited by the relation H_max=γd. where γ is the breaking parameter, assumed to be 0.73 in SWAN. In deep…

    1a. The results from Figure 1 illustrate that the control treatment of the Tomato plant, has a maximum quantum yield of Photosystem II than chilled plants. It appears that over time, the average Fv/Fm seems to be constant with no drastic changes in the levels, with values staying between the ranges of 0.7 to 0.8 Fv/Fm. On the other hand, the chilled treatment of Tomato plants begins at 0.2257 Fv/Fm at time = 0 minutes, and the last plant has a Fv/Fm value of 0.6526 when time is at 150 minutes.…
