چکیده
Abstract—In this study, the Compressive strength of concretes made with Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS), Pulverised Fuel Ash (PFA), Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Waste Glass Powder (WGP) after they were exposed 780C (exposure duration of around 60 minutes) and then allowed to cool down gradually in the furnace for about 280 minutes at water binder ratio of 0.50 was investigated. GGBS, PFA, RHA and WGP were used to replace up to 20% Portland cement in the control concrete. Test for the determination of workability, compressive strength and tensile splitting strength of the concretes were carried out and the results were compared with control concrete. The test results showed that the compressive strength decreased by an average of around 30% after the concretes were exposed to the heating and cooling scenario.

متن کاملEffect of temperature as well as heating and cooling cycles on rock properties
Temperature has a significant role in many actions performed on rocks. An example would be the effect of temperature on rocks in the burial of nuclear waste, geothermal energy extraction, deep oil well drilling, and fires in tunnels. In addition, due to diurnal/nocturnal as well as seasonal temperature variations, rocks undergo a process of heating and cooling. In the present work, the effect o...
متن کاملCentral and peripheral temperatures and EEG changes during behavioural thermoregulation in pigs.
Pigs aged about 8 weeks will learn to operate infra-red heaters at ambient temperatures of 20 degree Celsius but not at 25 degree Celsius. Hypothalamic temperature, cortical EEG and skin temperatures have been recorded in pigs exposed to ambient temperatures of 0, +10 or +20 degree Celsius in both heat reinforcement and heat escape situations. The amount of heating received decreased with incre...
متن کاملDesign and characterization of thin film microcoolers
Thin film coolers can provide large cooling power densities compared to bulk thermoelectrics due to the close spacing of hot and cold junctions. Important parameters in the design of such coolers are investigated theoretically and experimentally. A three-dimensional ~3D! finite element simulator ~ANSYS! is used to model self-consistently thermal and electrical properties of a complete device st...
متن کاملPeriodic cooling of bird eggs reduces embryonic growth efficiency.
For many bird embryos, periodic cooling occurs when the incubating adult leaves the nest to forage, but the effects of periodic cooling on embryo growth, yolk use, and metabolism are poorly known. To address this question, we conducted incubation experiments on eggs of zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata) that were frequently cooled and then rewarmed or were allowed to develop at a constant temp...
