Öğe An experimental investigation of the effect of thermophysical properties on time lag and decrement factor for building elements(Gazi University, 2020-06-01) Oktay, Hasan; Yumrutaş, Recep; Argunhan, ZekiThe time lag (TL) and decrement factor (DF) are essential for the heat storage capabilities of building elements, which strictly depend on the thermophysical properties of the elements. Many investigations are presented in literature arguing to find the influence of each thermophysical property on TL and DF by keeping the other properties constant. This study aims to investigate the effect of each property on TL and DF, utilizing relationships between the measurement values of the thermophysical properties of wall materials. Therefore, first, 132 new concrete wall samples were produced, and their thermophysical properties were tested. Secondly, TL and DF values for each building element are computed from the solution of the problem by Complex Finite Fourier Transform (CFFT) technique. Finally, a multivariate regression analysis has been performed, and the variations of each thermophysical property versus TL and DF are presented, and also the findings are compared with literature. The results show that each property alone (keeping the other properties constant) is not adequate to identify the thermal inertia and thermal performance of a wall element. Besides, 87.3 % decrease in thermal diffusivity corresponds to 6.03 h increase in the value of TL and 88.8 % decrease in value of DF; respectively, for W1 wall assembly.Öğe Aspir ve kanola biyodizeli kullanımının egzoz emisyonu ve motor performansına etkilerinin incelenmesi(Küresel Mühendislik Çalışmaları Dergisi, 2016-04-01) Aydın, Hüseyin; Işık, Mehmet Zerrakki; Ziyadanoğulları Budak, Neşe; Oktay, Hasan; Bayındır, Hasan; Yücel, Halit LutfiBiodiesel fuel, which can be produced from crude or waste vegetable oil, is an important alternative renewable fuel for diesel engines. Particularly the use of vegetable oils for diesel engines has found an important place in several surveys. Biodiesel can be used alone, or blended with petrodiesel in any proportions. Biodiesel is suitable for usage at conventional diesel engines without modification. In this study, canola and safflower oil biodiesel methyl is realized by using the esterification method.. The produced biodiesels were blended in %(50) (in volume) with diesel fuel. The blends were tested in a four cycle, four cylinder Diesel engine. The effects of biodiesel addition to Diesel No. 2 on the performance and emissions of the engine were examined at full load. The resulting performance values were found to be similar to diesel fuel. In general, specific fuel consumption of biodiesel is higher than diesel at all engine loads. Significant difference between the exhaust temperature is not determined. AB50 biodiesel compared to diesel HC emissions at high loads began to decline. NOx, CO2 and O2 emissions ratio has increased at high loads for Biodiesel fuels. Experimental results showed that the produced biodiesels can be partially substituted for the diesel fuel at most operating conditions in terms of the performance parameters and emissions without any engine modification and preheating of the blends.Öğe Prediction of the thermal conductivity of lightweight building materials utilizing backpropagation neural network method(Fırat Üniversitesi, 2015) Oktay, Hasan; Polat, Süleyman; Fidan, ŞehmusThe growing concern about energy consumption of heating and cooling of buildings has led to a demand for improved thermal performances of building materials.

For this task, ASHRAE has presented several methods to calculate the building cooling load due to heat gain, such as the total equivalent temperature difference method (TETD), the cooling load temperature difference method (CLTD), and the radiant time series method (RTS). The present study aims to explore the accuracies of those calculation methods in terms of energy efficiency. In this regard, an analytical solution method utilizing Complex Finite Fourier Transform Technique (CFFT) was developed for the calculation of cooling load due to heat gain to compare the temperature differences obtained from the TETD and CLTD methods. Then, a computer program was prepared in MATLAB to perform the calculations based on an analytical methodology. Besides, the estimated CLTD and TETD values by the CFFT were compared with those values presented in the Handbook of the ASHRAE. The calculation results revealed there is a good agreement between the analytical and presented results in the ASHRAE Manual for the selected building envelopes. However, several differences were found between the estimated TETD and CLTD cooling load values and those presented in the Handbook of ASHRAEÖğe Comparison of the thermal performances of concretes containing waste rubber for energy efficient buildings(2018) Oktay, Hasan; Yumrutaş, RecepDue to the rapid depletion of available sites, the disposal of waste tires is becoming a serious environmental problem day by day. Assessment of waste rubbers in concrete is an innovative solution that meets both the challenge of the tire disposal problem and a demand for improved thermal performances of structural materials for energy efficient buildings. Therefore, in this study, an investigation is performed both to obtain new concrete types by using waste rubbers with high thermal insulating characteristics and to compare the thermal performance of those concretes with conventional ones. For this purpose, different types of concrete samples were prepared with a constant water-cement ratio, and normal aggregates replaced by rubber aggregates at different volume fractions between 0% and 60% of the total aggregate volume. In the experiments, all mechanical tests were conducted and the hot disk method was used to establish thermal property values of concrete samples. In order to determine the most suitable concrete samples, heat flows through the produced samples are calculated using a program developed in MATLAB. Calculation method for the heat flow is based on solution of transient heat transfer problem for the multilayer structures. The program is executed to calculate hourly heat gain values for these samples over a period of 24 h during design day for Batman, Turkey. The results indicated that the maximum reduction in heat gain value was obtained as 50.6 % for RC60 wall with commonly used thickness of 20 cm corresponding to conventional concrete.Öğe An investigation of the influence of thermophysical properties of multilayer walls and roofs on the dynamic thermal characteristics(Mugla Sitki Kocman University, 2016-06-09) Oktay, Hasan; Argunhan, Zeki; Yumrutaş, Recep; Işık, Mehmet Zerrakki; Budak Ziyadanoğulları, NeşeThe growing concern about energy consumption of heating and cooling of buildings has led to a demand for improved thermal performances of building materials. To achieve this goal, in this study, an investigation is performed to analyze the influence of thermophysical properties and thickness of various multilayer building walls or roofs in a building on the dynamic thermal characteristics, such as the decrement factor (DF), time lag (TL) and heat gain. In order to find the thermal performance characteristics of building structures, such as briquette, brick, blockbims and autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), which are commonly used in Turkey, an analytical solution method was developed in a computer program in MATLAB and results are compared to determine suitable wall or roof material.

Commercial D2 (Diesel fuel) and two fuel samples obtained by blending the FOME and COME with the D2 with a ratio of 25% on volume basis were used as fuels in a Diesel test engine. An experimental study was performed for investigating the performance and exhaust emissions of the Diesel engine using the fuels. According to the test results, it was observed that the fish oil based fuel indicated better performance and exhaust emission parameters than those of cooking oil. Results clearly showed that the engine power and torque values were lower than those of the Diesel fuel with values of 3.05% and 1.25% for FB25, and 4.07% and 2.2% for CB25, respectively. Also, brake specific fuel consumption for the produced fuels increased up to 5.69% compared to Diesel fuel. However, HC and CO emission reductions compared to the Diesel fuel were found to be around 16.24% and 19.81%, respectively. But, the amount of increase in NOx emissions for the same biodiesel fuels reached up to 17.2%.Öğe Investigation of the thermal and acoustic performance of perlite- based building materials(European Journal of Technique (EJT), 2016-12) Oktay, Hasan; Argunhan, Zeki; Doğmuş, RecepPerlite is a siliceous volcanic glass that provides heat and sound insulation, whose volume can expand substantially under the effect of heat. Perlite ore is one of the most important mineral resources for Turkey where holds a large portion reserves in the world. Evaluation of perlite in building industry, which has advantages in terms of heat and sound insulation, will make an important contribution to the national economy. In this context, experimental investigations are performed for obtaining new concrete types with relatively high strength, low density and good thermal and acoustic properties for energy efficient buildings. For this purpose, 6 sets and different types of concrete samples were prepared with a constant watercement ratio, and normal aggregates replaced by expanded perlite aggregates at different volume fractions such as 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% and 60% of the total aggregate volume. Mechanical and thermal tests were all conducted and the hot disk method was used to establish thermal property values of concrete samples. The results of the experimental studies show that the compressive strength and density decreases, while highly increases the heat and sound insulation features with increasing in perlite content. As a result, it was found out that the reductions in thermal conductivity [Wm–1K–1] and ultrasonic pulse velocity [km/s] of the produced samples reached to 75% and 35%, respectively.Öğe Comparison of heat gain values obtained for building structures with real and constant properties(Bitlis Eren Üniversitesi, 2019-12-24) Oktay, Hasan; Yumrutaş, Recep; Argunhan, ZekiThe magnitude of energy consumption due to the heating and cooling of buildings has led to the demand for increasing the thermal performance of building structures. Many investigations are presented in literature arguing to find the effect of each thermophysical property on the thermal characteristics of building components, while the properties have been assumed as independent of each other. In this context, this paper focuses on the effect of each property on heat gain value utilizing relationships between the measurement values of the thermophysical properties of building structures. In the previous study, 102 new wall samples were produced, their thermophysical properties were tested and expressions among these properties are obtained. In this study, the heat gain values through the structures are computed using the solution of the transient heat transfer problem by using both the obtained expressions between the thermophysical properties and assumptions proposed from the literature. Results obtained for varying and constant thermophysical properties have been compared with those values presented in the literature. The results show that the assumptions are not realistic in a significant number of cases. Moreover, if one of the thermophysical properties of a material is known, heat gain values can be calculated easily for the selected wall or roof types.
