    (Taylor & Francis, 2020-03-15) Karakaya, Hakan; Durmuş, Aydın; Avcı, Ali Serkan
    A prototype of a solar chimney power plant was performed by modeling in this study. The performed prototype was experimentally confirmed. Temperature, velocity, and radiation values were measured to actualize the confirmation. Experimental data that were obtained to determine the performance of solar chimney whose prototype was actualized by the help of measured values were computationally analyzed. The geometry of a solar chimney in the analysis was bidimensionally (2D) drawn on an axis of symmetry. The numerical simulation was analyzed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. Since analysis results show that there is turbulent flow in system (RNG), k-ɛ turbulence model was used. Continuity, momentum, and energy equations were applied to the solar chimney system via the finite volume method. Moreover, DO (discrete ordinates) model was inserted in analysis to evaluate the radiation effect in the collector area. In addition to all these, correlation results between SPSS 17 statistics program and data obtained were evaluated. Finally, with reference to the comparison between numerical and experimental results, data obtained and numerical data are close to each other; the prototype is applicable to the real systems.

    Effects of ethanol addition to biodiesel fuels derived from cottonseed oil and its cooking waste as fuel in a generator diesel engine
    (Taylor & Francis, 2020-03) Karakaya, Hakan
    Exploration of energy sources such as renewable and non-edible vegetable oils has been continued during the recent two decades of 2000s. Cottonseed oil is a non-edible, abundant oil and is generally used as cooking oil. In the present study, the usability of biodiesel derived from both cottonseed oil and its cooking wastes was investigated by blending them with ULSD or ethanol in 50 percentages. B50, WB50, B50E50 and WB50E50, biodiesel and ethanol-contained fuels and ULSD were prepared for experiments. Combustion, performance, and emissions tests were conducted on a diesel engine used for power-producing electrical generator. In the combustion tests, cylinder pressure, HRR, CHR, MGT, and MFB were analyzed while MFC, BSFC, exhaust manifold temperature, and thermal efficiency were obtained in the performance tests. In the emissions tests, CO, HC, and NOx emissions were measured and compared with the results of ULSD. Combustion and performance findings of ULSD contained biodiesel blends were found more similar to those of ULSD. The duration of combustion stage can clearly be seen to be narrowed for ethanol-contained blend because of the rabid combustion characteristics of ethanol. Besides, the peak of HRR was found 10% higher for B50E50 while it was found averagely 8% for WB50E50 blends. NOx emissions were found 48% lower averagely for ethanol contained biodiesel blends that it is the most important finding of ethanol using with biodiesel. Besides, HC emissions were also found about 75% for biodiesel contained diesel fuel blends.

    Silica gel-immobilized 5-aminoisophthalohydrazide: A novel sorbent for solid phase extraction of Cu, Zn and Pb from natural water samples
    (Wiley Online Library, 2020-03-11) Aydın, Funda; Çakmak, Reşit; Levent, Abdulkadir; Soylak, Mustafa
    A novel silica sorbent, silica gel‐immobilized 5‐aminoisophthalohydrazide (SiO2‐APH), was prepared by the condensation of 3‐chloropropyl‐functionalized silica gel with 5‐aminoisophthalohydrazide (APH) derived from dimethyl 5‐aminoisophthalate as a starting material and used for separation and preconcentration of Cu, Zn, and Pb metals in water samples using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS). The characterization of the new sorbent was carried out by Elemental Analysis, Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Important analytical parameters including as pH, amount of sorbent, type and amount of eluting solvent, sample volume, vortex and ultrasonic bath time, matrix ions that effect the developed SiO2‐APH‐solid phase extraction (SPE) method were investigated and optimum parameters were detected. Recoveries of examined metals were obtained as 98% for Cu and Pb and 101% for Zn. The relative standard deviation (RSD, n = 8) of Cu, Zn and Pb metals were 3.2, 2.8 and 1.6%, respectively. Limit of detections (LODs) (n = 10) were found as 2.7 μg L−1 for Cu, 7.4 μg L−1 for Zn and 3.5 μg L−1 for Pb μg L−1. The accuracy of the new method was assessed by analyzing of TMDA‐51.4 and TMDA‐70.2 certified reference materials. The results obtained for metals were in a good agreement with certified values. Addition/recovery test was applied to the real well, river, dam and stream water samples to check the accuracy of the method. The results showed that the developed SiO2‐APH‐SPE method can be effectively used as an alternative method for determination of Cu, Zn, and Pb metals in water samples.

    (SpringerLink, 2020) Çelik, Yahya Hışman; Temiz, Şemsettin; Çetkin, Edip
    In this study, V and X welding grooves were opened to the forehead positions of the AA5182 and AA7075 aluminum alloy pairs and these alloy pairs were joined with tungsten inert gas (TIG) and metal inert gas (MIG) methods. Three diferent welding currents were used in joints. Gas fow rates of 12 and 17 l/min at the TIG welding and wire feed rates of 38 and 45 cm/min at MIG welding were selected. The efect of the welding grooves, welding current, gas fow rate and wire feed rate on microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. Microstructures of welding zones were analyzed by an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Vickers hardness of these zones was also measured. In addition, tensile and fatigue tests were carried out. Fracture mechanisms of failed specimens were conducted after the tensile tests were examined by using SEM. The highest hardness, tensile and fatigue strengths were obtained from the alloy pairs joined by opening X welding groove with TIG welding method. These values were 89 HV, 262.87 MPa, and 131.5 MPa, respectively. Similarly, the lowest tensile and fatigue strengths were obtained from the alloy pairs joined by opening V welding groove in the TIG welding method. These values were, respectively, 94.48 MPa and 19.1 MPa. However, the minimum hardness value was measured as 58 HV from the alloy pairs joined by opening V welding groove with MIG welding methods. In addition, it was observed on the fracture surfaces that the grain distributions and mechanisms difered depending on the welding methods, welding groove, and welding parameters.

    Synthesis and anticorrosion studies of 4-[(2-nitroacetophenonylidene)-amino]-antipyrine on SAE 1012 carbon steel in 15 wt.% HCl solution
    (Taylor & Francis, 2020-11-16) Gerengi, Hüsnü; Çakmak, Reşit; Dağ, Beşir; Solomon, M. M; Tüysüz Akbal, Hatice Aslıhan; Kaya, Ertuğrul
    A novel corrosion inhibitor, ((E)-1,5-dimethyl-4-((1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethylidene)amino)-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one) (DNPP) was synthesized in high yield by the condensation reaction of 4-aminoantipyrine with 2-nitroacetphenone derived from acetophenone as a starting material and characterized by FT-IR, 1H, and 13C NMR techniques. DNPP was tested against the corrosion of SAE 1012 carbon steel in 15 wt.% HCl solution using electrochemical and surface characterization techniques. Results obtained show that DNPP is effective in retarding the corrosion of SAE 1012 carbon steel. With 4 mM of DNPP, the charge transfer resistance of SAE 1012 in 15 wt.% HCl solution is raised from 17.42 to 140.50 Ω cm2 and the substrate surface is protected by 87%. The inhibition is through adsorption mechanism (mixed-adsorption type) and has been confirmed by SEM and EDAX results. Potentiodynamic polarization results reveal that DNPP acted as a mixed-type corrosion inhibitor. DNPP is a promising candidate for the formulation of an inhibitor cocktail for the strong acid environment.

    Effect of MQL flow rate on machinability of AISI 4140 steel
    (Taylor & Francis, 2020-06-27) Gürbüz, Hüseyin; Gönülaçar, Yunus Emre; Baday, Şehmus
    Many studies were performed about the influence of minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) technique on cutting performance in the literature, but there is no paper examining the effect of different MQL flow rates and cutting parameters on machinability of AISI 4140 material as a whole. In this study, the effects of different MQL flow rates and cutting parameters on surface roughness, main cutting force and cutting tool flank wear (VB), with great importance among the machinability criteria, and forming as a result of the machining of AISI 4140, were revealed. At the end of the experiments, it was determined that rise of flow rate affected main cutting forces positively to a certain extent; yet, it exhibited no significant effect on surface roughness, but reduced VB. Also, it was observed that both main cutting force and surface roughness increased with the increase of feed, while generally decreased with the increase of cutting speed. It was seen that flank wear was positively affected by the increase in flow rate; and this decreased with the increase in flow rate. R2 values obtained as 99.8% and 99.9% for main cutting forces and surface roughness values modeled statistically with the help of quadratic equations, respectively.

    Optimization and evaluation of dry and minimum quantity lubricating methods on machinability of AISI 4140 using Taguchi design and ANOVA
    (SAGE Journals, 2020-07-05) Gürbüz, Hüseyin; Gönülaçar, Yunus Emre
    In this work, it is aimed to study the effects of dry machining and minimum quantity lubrication application on machinability in turning AISI 4140 steel by utilizing different cutting parameters. Also, this study contains effects and optimization of cutting conditions (dry and minimum quantity lubricating), feed rate, and cutting speed on surface roughness (Ra) and main cutting forces (Fc) determined by employing the Taguchi method. At the end of experiments, it was established that compared to dry machining operations, minimum quantity lubricating significantly reduced cutting tool wear, while Fc and Ra decreased in general. Analyses of variance, regression analysis, signal-to-noise ratio, and orthogonal array were employed to analyze the effects and contributions of independent variables on dependent variables. The optimum levels of the dependent variables for reducing Fc and Ra using signal-to-noise rates were established. According to signal-to-noise ratios, minimum quantity lubricating had a more important effect on Fc and Ra than dry machining. The optimal conditions for Fc and Ra were at 0.16 mm/rev feed rate, 125 m/min cutting speed at minimum quantity lubricating. Analysis of variance results demonstrated that the feed rate is the most influential independent variable on Fc (93.976 %) and Ra (89.352 %). Validation test results exhibited that the Taguchi method and regression analysis were highly achieved methods in the optimization of independent variables for dependent variables. Taguchi optimization technique and regression analysis obtained from Fc (R2Tag. = 0.972 and R2Rag. = 0.997) and Ra (R2Tag. = 0.985 and R2Rag. = 0.996) measurements match really well with the experimental data

    The flexural fatigue behavior of honeycomb sandwich composites following low velocity impacts
    (MDPI, 2020-01-13) Topkaya, Tolga; Solmaz, Murat Yavuz
    This study experimentally investigated the flexural fatigue behaviors of honeycomb sandwich composites subjected to low velocity impact damage by considering the type and thickness of the face sheet material, the cell size and the core height parameters. Carbon-fiber reinforced composite and the aluminum alloy was used as the face sheet material. First, the static strength of undamaged and damaged specimens was determined by three-point bending loads. Secondly, the fatigue behaviors of the damaged and undamaged specimens were determined. Low velocity impact damage decreased the flexural strength and fatigue lives but increased the damping ratio for all specimens. Maximum damping ratio values were observed on specimens with a aluminum face sheet.
