This research has answer the question: how can structure reinforce
architectural design concepts in order to enrich architecture? After
acknowledging the relevance of design concepts in architecture,
recurring concepts in contemporary architecture were identified. The
most prevalent concepts found can be summarized as pairs of
opposing concepts: order-chaos, grounded-floating.
This research presented the experimental study of improving flow
conditions in pump-sump provided with an axial or mixed pump, and
vertical suction pipe, to ensure reducing the minimum needed
submergence of the sump. A physical model of rectangula
r shaped pumpsump
had been studied, with a scale 1\10 , according to Froude Model.
Three modifications had been added, including: floating element, conical
element, and the third one consists of both of them. The flow had been
watched for vortices observation whether surface or subsurface.
Piezometric pressures had been measured at eight points, distributed
equally on the suction pipe perimeter near pump impeller, in addition to
swirl degree measure near pump impeller too. The results showed that the
floating element, set behind the suction pipe, is the most appropriate and
most effective solution to reduce the submergence in pump-sump in way
which the other hydraulic criterions, which control the flow stability
towards the suction pipe in the sump, don't be affected negatively.
Researchers and scientists to ease due to electric power generation
using fossil fuel plants with environmental pollution is seeking, in the
discovery and improve the methods of generation using renewable
energies. Floating solar chimney technolog
y of the most promising
technologies that can be used in power stations with solar chimney is
considered.
The research aims to give results on a proposal to determine the
specifications for the plant of this kind in the climate of the city of Homs,
for example, and the study of the behavior of this station and analyze the
most important parameters affecting it. In this research study hydrothermal
behavior floating solar chimney in the climate of the city of
Homs by a program written in a language programming EES thermal
power station.
The purpose of this research is to enhance fractional numbers precision
according to the new representation of fractional numbers, adding some extra
cost to the hardware so we suggest a new number system per representing of
fractional numbers in c
omputers, that depends on the series
With mathematical, algorithmic study, and its hardware of our research, we
consider the two principal formats of real numbers in computers: fixed- point,
floating- point and the cost of the hardware required to store and process the
numbers.
