Stirling engine is the external heated engine that heat is sup-plied externally to the heater part of the engine. Thus, Stirling cycle engine can be employed with various sources of renewable energy such as biomass, biofuel, solar energy, geothermal energy, recovery heat, and waste. The integration of gasifier, burner, and heat engine as a power system offers more fuel choices of each local area with potential resources resulting independent from shortage and cost fluctuation of fossil fuel. This research aims to investigate the integration of the Stirling engine with a wood pellet gasifier for electric power generation. Biomass can be controlled to have continuously combustion with ultra-low toxic emission. Stirling engine, therefore, is a promising alternative in small-scale-electricity production. Even though many biomass-powered Stirling engines were successfully constructed and marketed but these engines and the use of biomass resources as fuel for power generation are quite new concepts in some developing countries. Especially, the capital cost of this engine is high and unaffordable for installation compared to other power systems. Therefore, this research aims to the study attractive and feasibility of the compact Stirling engine with green energy.
เนื่องจากความต้องการพลังงานที่มีมากขึ้น แต่เชื้อเพลิงฟอสซิลซึ่งเป็นแหล่งพลังงานหลักมีอยู่อย่างจำกัดและเป็นสาเหตุหนึ่งของมลพิษและภาวะโลกร้อน ดังนั้นพลังงานทางเลือกจึงเป็นกุญแจสำคัญเพื่อความยั่งยืนด้านพลังงาน ประเทศไทยมีศักยภาพของพลังงานชีวมวลจากเกษตรกรรม ดังนั้นการพัฒนาระบบผลิตไฟฟ้าที่มลพิษต่ำและสามารถใช้ได้กับแหล่งพลังงานทดแทนจึงจำเป็นอย่างยิ่ง โดยเฉพาะเครื่องยนต์สเตอร์ลิงซึ่งมีโครงสร้างชิ้นส่วนไม่ซับซ้อน ปราศจากการสันดาปภายในเครื่องยนต์จึงเป็นเครื่องยนต์ที่มีศักยภาพผลิตไฟฟ้าด้วยพลังงานสะอาดและเป็นมิตรกับสิ่งแวดล้อมและความสำเร็จของโรงไฟฟ้าเครื่องยนต์สเตอร์ลิง ในประเทศไทย เพื่อคนไทย

This study presents the development of carbon-based multiphase metal oxide nanocomposites (CNF@MOx; M = Ag, Mn, Bi, Fe) incorporating silver, manganese, bismuth, and iron nanoparticles within polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-derived carbon nanofibers. These nanocomposites were fabricated via the electrospinning technique followed by annealing in an argon atmosphere. The resulting nanofibers exhibited a uniform structure, with diameters ranging from 559 to 830 nm and embedded nanoparticles of 9-21 nm. Structural characterization confirmed the presence of various oxidation states of metal oxides, which play a crucial role in charge storage mechanisms. Electrochemical performance testing demonstrated that CNF@Ag/Mn/Bi/Fe-20 achieved the highest specific capacitance of 156 F g⁻¹ at a scan rate of 2 mV s⁻¹ and exhibited excellent cycling stability, retaining over 96% of its capacitance after 1400 charge-discharge cycles. The synergistic combination of electric double-layer capacitance and redox-based charge storage enhances the performance of these nanofibers as promising electrode materials for supercapacitor applications.

This Project has been undertaken to address the need for skill development and knowledge enhancement in pneumatic systems and automation control, which are crucial in today’s manufacturing industry. Pneumatic systems play a vital role in various production processes, including machine control, automated devices, and assembly lines. However, the Department of Measurement and Control Engineering currently lacks a laboratory dedicated to the study and experimentation of pneumatic systems due to the deterioration and lack of maintenance of the previously used equipment. This has resulted in students missing the opportunity to practice essential skills required in the industrial sector. The authors of this thesis recognize the necessity of reviving and developing a pneumatic laboratory that can effectively support teaching, learning, and research activities. This project focuses on studying and developing industrial robotic arm control systems and pneumatic systems, integrating modern technologies such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and AI Vision. These systems are intended to be applicable to real-world industrial contexts. The outcomes of this project are expected to not only enhance the understanding of relevant technologies but also aim to transform the laboratory into a vital learning hub for current and future students. Furthermore, this initiative seeks to improve the competitiveness of students in the job market and support the development of innovations in the manufacturing industry in the years to come.
