ABSTRACT When comparing with other manufacturing technologies, the extrusion technology always stands out as it is known to be highly efficient in terms of producing products of superior quality with the least possible amount of wastage. With the ever-increasing cost of materials, energy and the competition in the market, it becomes almost necessary to device a model with the minimum number of trials and shortest lead time. A multi-hole extrusion process was hence devised to serve the above n...
Azeotropic distillation of ethanol-water mixture is accomplished by adding a volatile third component to the liquid which changes the volatility of one of the two components more than the other so the components are separated by distillation. The two components to be separated often have similar boiling point components which do or do not azeotrope in the binary mixture, but sometimes there are components which do azeotrope despite having vastly different boiling points. It is likely that in ...
This project study was aimed at designing, fabricating, and evaluating the performance of a double effect evaporator, which was used to evaporate sugar syrup to be used for students’ demonstration. During the course of the study, the methods that were used comprised of the material balances, energy balances, and determination of the component parts of the evaporator. The results from the study included the overall material in the evaporator’s system, the material balance for each effect, ...
ABSTRACT The sandcrete blocks have been a major material for the construction of structures in Nigeria. This material have provided a means of constructing walls and partition. However, the sandcrete blocks also have the disadvantage of cost and unavailability of materials such as granite, cement and other combining aggregates. Laterite, a readily available material can be efficiently used to produce Laterite bricks which can be fired to improve it's mechanical and physical property. The inc...

This experiment was conducted in order to have a broader knowledge on hydraulic jump and its applications. It was performed in the hydraulic laboratory of the department of Water Resources and Environmental Engineering, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, using the TQH23, 2.52m flow rectangular channel and the HID hydraulic bench which provides water to the channel with the aid of the pump incorporated in the HID. Five different discharges were obtained by varying the flow. Hydraulic jump...
ABSTRACT Power inverter is an electrical appliance that can be used with DC battery as an alternativesource of energy supply in the event of power failures and energy crisis. It is cheap, clean,very conducive and silent when in operation and a very reliable source of power supply as togenerator. Modern research and technologies have shown that inverter is one of the cheapestforms of energy generation. Throughout the world, it is readily available and can be partnerto solar energy particularly...
BSTRACT Automatic door control is becoming popular due to its numerous benefits. Automatic door control refers to the control of doors and domestic features by just sensing the present of human being at door and automatically open the door with the persons interface or by remote control. Artificial Intelligence provides us the framework to go real-time decision and automation for Internet of Things (IoT). The work deals with discussion about different intelligent home automation systems and t...
This work is on design and Construction of Automated door security system with GSM notification. Is an electrical Electronics Engineering Project.
ABSTRACT This project presents a design and implementation of new advanced Securitypower control using Android power switch system that uses WiFi technology as anetwork infrastructure connecting its parts. The proposed system consists of twomain components; the first part is the server (web server), which presents systemcore that manages, controls, and monitors users’ home. Users and systemadministrator can locally (LAN) or remotely (internet) manages and control systemcode. Second part is ...
ABSTRACT Oil obtained from orange peels and velvet tamarind nut by solvent extraction (n-hexane and acetone) using the soxhlet extractor were investigated as feedstock’s to determine some of the suitable parameters such as iodine value, saponification value, specific gravity, density, acid value and free fatty acid value, and their percentage yield that are suitable for biodiesel production. The density of orange and tamarind oil were found to be 0.9326g/cm3 and 0.8541g/cm3 respectively, th...
This Project present the design and construction of a microcontroller based under and over voltage protection device, which is achieved using a microcontroller, transistor and other discrete components. A microcontroller PIC16F877A is at the heart of the device which performs the major control of the device. The device is simple and low cost. It can withstand loads of up to 2KVA, while allowing the supply Voltage to be connected load to vary from 200-240 volts.
ABSTRACT The fabrication of the solar dryer was successful and test were carried out for various performance comparisons such as No-load and Load performance of the dryer and direct sun drying comparison and noticeable differences was noticed in the final moisture content such that the maximum temperature recorded in the drying chamber and solar collector for No-load are 44.5 and 52 respectively and also for when the cabinet is loaded the above stated temperatures are 66 and 76.5 for a highes...
this paper shows separation technique with research.
ABSTRACT A power transformer is a very simple device. It is a vital link in the electronic distribution system. A power transformer is associated with faults. The design and construction of the phase fault detector is to provide simple, reliable and comprehensive electrical phase fault detections and response system. The system includes means for detecting any of the various electrical faults, such as impermissible low voltage levels, impermissible high ...
