Combustion Characteristics of Densified Cattle Manure Briquette in an Isothermal Condition

Proposed Beef Cattle Manure Excretion and Characteristics Standard for ASAE

A committee was formed consisting of both animal scientists and agricultural engineers to evaluate and update current ASAE standards. An intake minus retention model was developed to estimate nutrient excretion. This approach allows users (producers, engineers, etc.) to develop site specific information based on known variables such as protein or phosphorus content of diets and cattle performan...

Combustion characteristics of bio-oil from swine manure/crude glycerol co-liquefaction by thermogravimetric analysis technology

The thermal analysis and kinetics of bio-oils derived from swine manure/ crude glycerol co-liquefaction were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in the air. It was found that the combustion processes of bio-oils can be divided into three stages, with most of the materials decomposing between 330 and 370°C. In kinetic calculations, oxidation of the bio-oils was determined using the Coats...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
