Road Grade and Vehicle Parameter Estimation for Longitudinal Control Using GPS

Current GPS sensing technology enables estimation of road grade and, consequently simple treatment of parameter estimation from a static mass balance. An on-line recursive parameter estimation scheme based on this idea has been developed and demonstrated experimentally with a passenger vehicle. Both methods for estimating road grade from GPS produced a rapidly converging mass estimate that fell within ±2% of the measured [...]

Roller Bearing Mounting, Maintenance, Repair

TAROL units (Tapered Roller Bearings) are double row tapered roller bearings that are supplied with factory-set clearance, greased and sealed. The TAROL units are thus supplied ready-to-fit and are pressed onto the shaft journal by means of a hydraulic unit. http://www.almohandes.org/upload/489tpi156_de_en.rar

Pneumatic Power Motors

Air pressure (psig or bars) at motor location. 2. Pipe size of air supply system to assure adequate volume (cfm or m3/min) so as to minimize line loss (air pressure drop during motor operation). 3. Plant air system pressure may vary during the day due to use by other equipment; therefore, base the selection of the air motor on the lowest [...]

Energy auditing and recovery for dry type cementrotary kiln systems

This paper deals with the energy audit analysis of a dry type rotary kiln system working in a cement plant in Turkey. The kiln has a capacity of 600 ton-clinker per day. It was found that about 40% of the total input energy was being lost through hot flue gas (19.15%),cooler stack (5.61%) and kiln shell [...]

Project Cost Control: The Way it Works

In a recent consulting assignment we realized that there was some lack of understanding of the whole system of project cost control, how it is setup and applied. So we decided to write up a description of how it works. Project cost control is not that difficult to follow in theor http://www.almohandes.org/upload/552cost_control.rar VN:F [1.2.3_620]please wait…Rating: 1.0/10 (1 [...]

Agricultural Pumping Efficiency Improvements

Pumping water for irrigation is the larg-est use of on-farm agricultural energy in California. Growers are fully aware of the need for increasing overall efficiency of their pumping plant (pump and motor combination), but they do not always know how to achieve it. This Application Note describes some specific measures. http://www.almohandes.org/upload/652agricultural_pumping_efficiency_improvements.pdf VN:F [1.2.3_620]please wait…Rating: 0.0/10 [...]
