Techno-economic, energy, and exergy analyses of invasive weed gasification for hydrogen enriched producer gas production.

This research work deals with the examination of the techno-economic, exergy, and energy analyses of biomass gasification of the invasive weed (PHP) using Steam - Carbon dioxide (CO) as a gasifying agent with the support of simulation modeling for sustainable energy conversion process. The aim of this work is to simulate the gasification process through consideration of the impacts of various operating factors on gasification. This study attains the gradual increase in hydrogen (H) concentration from 51% to 63% along with the rise in carbon monoxide (CO) from 14.

Path integrals, particular kinds, and strange things.

This paper describes a path integral formulation of the free energy principle. The ensuing account expresses the paths or trajectories that a particle takes as it evolves over time. The main results are a method or principle of least action that can be used to emulate the behaviour of particles in open exchange with their external milieu.

On Bayesian mechanics: a physics of and by beliefs.

The aim of this paper is to introduce a field of study that has emerged over the last decade, called Bayesian mechanics. Bayesian mechanics is a probabilistic mechanics, comprising tools that enable us to model systems endowed with a particular partition (i.e.

Economic and exergy analysis of passive solar still incorporated with an additional condensing surface material beneath the top glazing to enhance the productivity.

The main bottleneck haunting the wide dissemination of solar still is its poor yield per unit area. This study aims to overcome the above bottleneck by augmenting the yield of SS by increasing the surface area available for condensation by incorporating an acrylic chamber filled with water beneath the top glass surface. The solar still incorporated with acrylic basin (ACSS) was operated in two different methodologies and its performance was ascertained and compared with the conventional passive solar still (CPSS).
