Influence of Temperature on Energetic and Rheological Characteristics of PLANTOHYD Bio Lubricants – a Study in the Laboratory
Journal Title: Engineering, Technology & Applied Science Research - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
This article presents the results of measuring the calorific value and the rheological characteristics of Plantohyd bio lubricants. Measurements were conducted under laboratory conditions with an IKA C5000 calorimeter and a DV-3P Anton Paar digital viscometer. Results are presented graphically. It is shown that the physical interpretation of energy values results and the dependence of rheological properties on temperature can be used to assess the quality of lubricants.

A Tunable Low Noise Active Bandpass Filter Using a Noise Canceling Technique
A monolithic tunable low noise active bandpass filter is presented in this study. Biasing voltages can control the center frequency and quality factor. By keeping the gain constant, the center frequency shift is 300 MHz....
Statistical Magnitude Analysis and Distance Determination of the Nearby F8V Stars
The present paper is of three folds. First, to provide some basic descriptive statistics parameters for the apparent and absolute magnitudes of the nearby stars of spectral type F8V stars. Second, to establish the freque...
Contributing Factors of Time Overrun in Public Sector Construction Projects
Time overrun is a major issue in construction projects. Its causes vary, depending upon the nature and size of the project. Developing countries are more susceptible to this problem due to limited resources and lack of m...
