Cooling suit with two-phase flow heat-exchange system

Cooling suit with two-phase flow heat-exchange system

Abstract

Cooling suit with two-phase flow heat-exchange system is a state-of-the-art heat sink, designed for thermal dissipation in fire fighter, racing driver and worker who needs to wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The liquid cooling system with gas injection can enhance heat transfer performance and continuously maintain the temperature at 18-20 degree Celsius.

Objective

นักดับเพลิง นักแข่งรถ บุคคลที่ต้องสวมใส่ชุด PPE ในการทำงาน เป็นอาชีพที่มีความเสี่ยงที่จะเสียชีวิตจากโรคลมแดด (heat stroke) ดังนั้นจึงมีแนวคิดในการใช้องค์ความรู้ทางวิศวกรรมเครื่องกลมาออกแบบและสร้างนวัตกรรมใหม่ สำหรับกลุ่มบุคคลที่มีความเสี่ยงจากโรคลมแดด

APS Evolution: Sustainable Automated Parking Innovation for User-Centric Solutions

Parking space shortages in urban areas contribute to traffic congestion, inefficient land use, and environmental challenges. Automated Parking Systems (APS) provide an innovative solution by optimizing space utilization, reducing search times, and minimizing carbon emissions. This research investigates key factors influencing user adoption of APS technology using the UTAUT2 framework, focusing on variables such as Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Trust in Technology, and Environmental Consciousness. The APS Evolution project presents a smart parking solution that enhances efficiency, minimizes environmental impact, and improves user experience in urban settings. The initiative emphasizes technology-driven urban mobility and sustainable parking management to align with the evolving needs of modern cities.

Improvement and Technical production of hot pepper (C. chinense) for high yield and high pungency

Capsicum chinense is a high-potential economic crop in the food and pharmaceutical industries due to its role as a primary source of capsaicin, a bioactive compound with significant physiological effects. However, capsaicin levels and fruit quality will be influenced by genetic factors, environmental conditions, and genetic-by-environment (G×E) interactions, leading to variability in capsaicin biosynthesis. This study will aim to analyze the impact of different environmental conditions on the growth, fruit quality, and capsaicin content of C. chinense ‘Scotch Bonnet’. The field experiments will be conducted at the demonstration plots of the Faculty of Agricultural Technology, King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, during two growing seasons: July–October (rainy season) and December–April (dry season). Four condition environments will be evaluated, and environmental parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, and light quality will be monitored to assess their effects on plant physiology and capsaicin biosynthesis. Additionally, an F1 hybrid breeding program will be established using six parental lines through a Half-diallel mating design, generating 15 hybrid combinations. The general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) will be assessed to identify promising hybrid combinations with high and stable capsaicin content and yield. The findings from this study will be expected to provide valuable insights into optimizing cultivation conditions for high-pungency chili production and supporting the development of F1 hybrid seeds with commercial viability and consistent capsaicin levels.

Development of tea from longan peels and seeds

This research aimed to develop the mixed tea from longan peels and seeds. Population studied were longan farmers who planted longan and preserved the longan product in Ampur Wang Nam Yen, Sa Kaeo Province. From the results, it was found that from By-product in the production of dehydrated longan, longan peels and seeds, which can be processed into ready-to-drink powdered tea. This not only helps reduce waste from the production process but also contributes to generating additional income from these by-products.
