Computational simulation of multi-strut central lobed injection of hydrogen in a scramjet combustor

Abstract: Summary Multi-strut injection is an approach to increase the overall performance of Scramjet while reducing the risk of thermal choking in a supersonic combustor Hence computational simulation of Scramjet combustor at Mach 25 through multiple central lobed struts (three struts) have been presented and discussed in the present research article The geometry and model used here is slight modification of the DLR (German Aerospace Center) scramjet model Present results show that the presence of three struts injector improves the performance of scramjet combustor as compared to single strut injector The combustion efficiency is also found to be highest in case of three strut fuel injection system In order to validate the results, the numerical data for single strut injection is compared with experimental result which is taken from the literature

Application of Coal Fly Ash in Air Quality Management

Abstract: Although, coal fly ash is recognized as an environmental pollutant, it can be used for the removal of various gaseous pollutants under controlled conditions. A lot of work has been conducted worldwide for the utilization of fly ash for various applications. It has been found from the literature that fly ash possesses potential application in the management of air quality. The literature data revealed that fly ash can be utilized for the removal of NOx, SOx, mercury, and other gaseous pollutants from air and other sources. Fly ash can be used as a promising sorbent for the removal of various types of air pollutants; however, further research need to be taken in the laboratory and pilot plant scale. It is also indicated that fly ash contained approximately 10–12% of unburned component and these unburned components may have an important role in their removal capacity. In this article, the application of fly ash in the removal of SOx, NOx, mercury, gaseous organics, and other impurities have been discussed an...

Robust image hashing through DWT-SVD and spectral residual method

Abstract: In the last few decades, the discovery of various methods for generating secure image hash has become revolutionary in the field of image hashing. This paper presents an efficient approach to obtain image hash through DWT-SVD and a saliency detection technique using spectral residual model. The latest image hashing technique based on ring partition and invariant vector distance is rotation invariant for the large angle at the cost of being insensitive to corner forgery. But, due to the use of the central orientation information, the proposed system is rotation invariant for arbitrary angles along with sensitiveness to corner changes. In addition, we have used the HSV color space that gives desirable classification performance. It provides satisfactory results against large degree rotation, JPEG compression, brightness and contrast adjustment, watermarking, etc. This technique is also sensitive to malicious activities. Moreover, it locates the forged areas of a forged image. We have applied the proposed algorithm to a large collection of images from various databases. The receiver operating characteristics shows that the proposed method is better than some state-of-the-art methods.
