Öğe N-type InP Schottky diodes with organic thin layer: Electrical and interfacial properties(Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology B, 2010-03) Güllü, Ömer; Turut, AbdulmecitThe rectifying junction characteristics of methyl red (MR) organic film on n-type InP substrate have been studied. It has been observed that MR-based structure shows an excellent rectifying behavior and that the MR film increases the effective barrier height by influencing the space charge region of the n-type InP. The barrier height and ideality factor values for this structure have been obtained as 0.75 eV and 1.93 from the forward bias current-voltage characteristics, respectively. By using capacitance-voltage characteristics at 1 MHz, the barrier height and the carrier concentration values have been calculated as 0.93 eV and 5.13×1015 cm−3, respectively. The energy distributions of the interface states and their relaxation times have been determined from the forward bias capacitance-frequency and conductance-frequency characteristics. Moreover, it was seen that both the interface-state density and the relaxation time of the interface states decreased with bias voltage from experimental results.Öğe Dijital eğitimde eşitsizlikler : Kırsal-kentsel ayrımlar ve sosyoekonomik farklılaşmalar(İnsan ve Toplum / The Journal of Humanity and Society, 2020-12) Nerse, SerdarGelir ve ekonomi temelli eşitsizliklerin yanı sıra toplumu doğrudan etkileyen “sosyal eşitsizlikler” de yeterince anlaşılamamıştır. Bu nedenle farklı bileşenlerle eşitsizlikler en iyi ihtimalle ölçülmekte ve incelenmektedir. Sosyal eşitsizlik; yeni durum, olay ve sorunların gelişmesi nedeniyle göreceli olarak bir dizi yeni boyut, beklenti ve sonuç ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Küresel ve ulusal ölçekte yaşanan yeni gelişme, genişleme ve daralmalar, eğitimde eşitsizliğin tekrar tartışılması gerektiğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bu çalışmada da kırsal-kentsel ayrımlar ile sosyoekonomik farklılaşmalar temelinde Covid-19 salgını sürecinde dijital eğitimde ortaya çıkan eşitsizlikler incelenmiştir. Bu iki ayrıma bağlı olarak salgın sürecinde evde uzaktan eğitime katılmaya çalışan üniversite öğrencilerinin dijital medya, internet, bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerine (DİB) erişim ve kullanımlarındaki eşitsizliklerin ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmıştır. Yaş, cinsiyet, ikamet yeri, okuduğu sınıf ve sosyoekonomik statüsüne göre 3 ayrı üniversiteden seçilen toplam 16 öğrenci araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Nitel yöntemin uygulandığı araştırmada, veriler, derinlemesine görüşmelerle elde edilmiştir. Görüşme verileri, Maxqda nitel veri analiz programıyla kategorileştirilmiş ve temalara dönüştürülmüştür. Açık, eksenel ve seçici kodlama neticesinde birleştirilen kategori ve temalar görselleştirilmiştir. Katılımcıların bireysel ve aile özellikleri, okulların çevresi ve mali kaynak durumları, kalkınma, özgürleşme, kültürlenme faktörleri etkileşimli şekilde eşitsizliği ortaya çıkarıcı etkiye sahip olduğu gibi dijital eğitim eşitsizliğinde kırsal-kentsel ayrım ve sosyoekonomik farklılaşmaların belirgin olduğu görülmektedir.Öğe Investigation of plasma arc cutting parameters with type-2 fuzzy set and system(De Gruyter, 2013-10) Çelik, Yahya Hışman; Özek, Cebeli; Bulut Özek, MüzeyyenThe objective of the present study was it to design a type-2 fuzzy set and system in order to predict surface roughness and hardness depending on the parameters (material thickness, cutting speed, arc voltage and current) of the plasma arc cutting process of S235JR sheet materials. Therefore, some experimental studies were conducted. The experimentally determined data were used to describe the type-2 fuzzy set and system. Type-2 fuzzy set and system was found to be usefull to predict surface roughnes and hardness. According to the obtained values, the best surface roughness and the values closest to the hardness of the raw material were obtained at 1500 mm/min cutting speed, 8 mm material thickness, 115 V arc voltage and 80 A current.Öğe Biodiesel production from inedible animal tallow and an experimental investigation of its use as alternative fuel in a direct injection diesel engine(Elsevier, 2009-02-15) Altun, Şehmus; Öner, CengizIn this study, a substitute fuel for diesel engines was produced from inedible animal tallow and its usability was investigated as pure biodiesel and its blends with petroleum diesel fuel in a diesel engine. Tallow methyl ester as biodiesel fuel was prepared by base-catalyzed transesterification of the fat with methanol in the presence of NaOH as catalyst. Fuel properties of methyl ester, diesel fuel and blends of them (5%, 20% and 50% by volume) were determined. Viscosity and density of fatty acid methyl ester have been found to meet ASTM D6751 and EN 14214 specifications. Viscosity and density of tallow methyl esters are found to be very close to that of diesel. The calorific value of biodiesel is found to be slightly lower than that of diesel. An experimental study was carried out in order to investigate of its usability as alternative fuel of tallow methyl ester in a direct injection diesel engine. It was observed that the addition of biodiesel to the diesel fuel decreases the effective efficiency of engine and increases the specific fuel consumption. This is due to the lower heating value of biodiesel compared to diesel fuel. However, the effective engine power was comparable by biodiesel compared with diesel fuel. Emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and smoke opacity were reduced around 15%, 38.5%, 72.7% and 56.8%, respectively, in case of tallow methyl esters (B100) compared to diesel fuel. Besides, the lowest CO, NOx emissions and the highest exhaust temperature were obtained for B20 among all other fuels. The reductions in exhaust emissions made tallow methyl esters and its blends, especially B20 a suitable alternative fuel for diesel and thus could help in controlling air pollution. Based on this study, animal tallow methyl esters and its blends with petroleum diesel fuel can be used a substitute for diesel in direct injection diesel engines without any engine modification.Öğe An exergy analysis of a concentric tube heat exchanger using hBN-water nanofluids(Inder Science Publishers, 2021) Budak Ziyadanoğulları, Neşe; Perçin, SüleymanThis study investigated the effects of using nanofluids prepared with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanoparticles on the thermal performance and pressure drop of a concentric tube heat exchanger. Experiments were carried out with water-hBN nanofluids for stable, dispersed, 0.01%, 0.1% and 1% volume concentrations, at different flow rates and Reynolds numbers under parallel and counter-flow conditions. When the experimental results were examined, the exergy loss was higher in the parallel-flow heat exchanger compared to the counter-flow heat exchanger. The highest exergy loss value was obtained for distilled water at the highest Reynolds number (Re = 8,700) for parallel flow operation at 170 W. The exergy loss of water at the highest Reynolds number (Re = 8,700) for parallel flow operation increased by 15.7%, 24.8% and 49.8% for hBN-water concentrations of 0.01%, 0.1% and 1%, respectively. Exergy loss of water at the highest Reynold number (Re = 8,700) for counter flow operation increased by 11.3%, 17.3% and 29.2% for hBN-water concentrations of 0.01%, 0.1% and 1%, respectively. When evaluating the exergy analysis of the system, exergy losses due to pressure drops were negligible for both flows (parallel and counter).Öğe The comparison of engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics of sesame oil-diesel fuel mixture with diesel fuel in a direct injection diesel engine(Elsevier, 2008-01-09) Altun, Şehmus; Bulut, Hüsamettin; Öner, CengizThe use of vegetable oils as a fuel in diesel engines causes some problems due to their high viscosity compared with conventional diesel fuel. Various techniques and methods are used to solve the problems resulting from high viscosity. One of these techniques is fuel blending. In this study, a blend of 50% sesame oil and 50% diesel fuel was used as an alternative fuel in a direct injection diesel engine. Engine performance and exhaust emissions were investigated and compared with the ordinary diesel fuel in a diesel engine. The experimental results show that the engine power and torque of the mixture of sesame oil-diesel fuel are close to the values obtained from diesel fuel and the amounts of exhaust emissions are lower than those of diesel fuel. Hence, it is seen that blend of sesame oil and diesel fuel can be used as an alternative fuel successfully in a diesel engine without any modification and also it is an environmental friendly fuel in terms of emission parameters.Öğe Taming the late Quaternary phylogeography of the Eurasiatic wild ass through ancient and modern DNA(PLoS One, 2017-04-19) Gündem, Can Yumni; Bennett, E Andrew; Champlot, Sophie; Peters, Joris; Arbuckle, Benjamin S; Guimaraes, Silvia; Pruvos, Mlanie; David, Shirli Bar; Davis, Simon J M; Gautier, Mathieu; Kaczensky, Petra; Kuehn, Ralph; Mashkour, Marjan; Morales, Arturo; Muiz, Morales; Pucher, Erich; Tournepiche, Jean François; Uerpmann, HansPeter; Blşescu, Adrian; Germonpr, Mietje; Moull, Pierre Elie; Ötzan, Aliye; Walzer, Chris; Grange, Thierry; Geigl, Eva MariaTaxonomic over-splitting of extinct or endangered taxa, due to an incomplete knowledge of both skeletal morphological variability and the geographical ranges of past populations, continues to confuse the link between isolated extant populations and their ancestors. This is particularly problematic with the genus Equus. To more reliably determine the evolution and phylogeographic history of the endangered Asiatic wild ass, we studied the genetic diversity and inter-relationships of both extinct and extant populations over the last 100,000 years, including samples throughout its previous range from Western Europe to Southwest and East Asia. Using 229 bp of the mitochondrial hypervariable region, an approach which allowed the inclusion of information from extremely poorly preserved ancient samples, we classify all non-African wild asses into eleven clades that show a clear phylogeographic structure revealing their phylogenetic history. This study places the extinct European wild ass, E. hydruntinus, the phylogeny of which has been debated since the end of the 19th century, into its phylogenetic context within the Asiatic wild asses and reveals recent mitochondrial introgression between populations currently regarded as separate species. The phylogeographic organization of clades resulting from these efforts can be used not only to improve future taxonomic determination of a poorly characterized group of equids, but also to identify historic ranges, interbreeding events between various populations, and the impact of ancient climatic changes. In addition, appropriately placing extant relict populations into a broader phylogeographic and genetic context can better inform ongoing conservation strategies for this highly-endangered species.Öğe Numerical and experimental investigation of solar chimney power plant system performance(Taylor & Francis, 2020-03-15) Karakaya, Hakan; Durmuş, Aydın; Avcı, Ali SerkanA 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.Öğe Combustion, performance and emissions of a diesel power generator fueled with biodiesel-kerosene and biodiesel-kerosene-diesel blends(Elsevier, 2017-02-05) Bayındır, Hasan; Işık, Mehmet Zerrakki; Argunhan, Zeki; Yücel, Halit Lütfi; Aydın, HüseyinHigh percentages of biodiesel blends or neat biodiesel cannot be used in diesel engines due to high density and viscosity, and poor atomization properties that lead to some engine operational problems. Biodiesel was produced from canola oil by transesterification process. Test fuels were prepared by blending 80% of the biodiesel with 20% of kerosene (B80&K20) and 80% of the biodiesel with 10% of kerosene and 10% diesel fuel (B80&K10&D10). Fuels were used in a 4 cylinders diesel engine that was loaded with a generator. Combustion, performance and emission characteristics of the blend fuels and D2 in the diesel engine for certain loads of 3.6, 7.2 and 10.8 kW output power and 1500 rpm constant engine speed were experimented and deeply analyzed. It was found that kerosene contained blends had quite similar combustion characteristics with those of D2. Mass fuel consumption and Bscf were slightly increased for blend fuels. HC emissions slightly increased while NOx emissions considerably reduced for blends. It was resulted that high percentages of biodiesel can be a potential substitute for diesel fuel provided that it is used as blending fuel with certain amounts of kerosene.Öğe Investigation of low velocity impact behaviors of honeycomb sandwich composites(SpringerLink, 2018-08-09) Topkaya, Tolga; Solmaz, Murat YavuzHoneycomb sandwich composites are used as significant structural members in advanced engineering applications. Thus, it is critical to determine how they behave under impact loading, in addition to other loads. In this study, low velocity impact loading behaviors of honeycomb sandwich composites were experimentally investigated. Almost all of the design parameters of honeycomb sandwich composites were investigated. The results indicated that the core thickness of honeycomb had no effect on the strength of the composite, and the parameter influencing the impact behavior of the specimen the most was the face sheet thickness. When the face sheet thickness of the specimen was increased, the most apparent strength increase was observed in the models using carbon fiber-reinforced composite face sheets. For all face sheet types subject to impact energy of 10 Joules, the upper face sheets of 0.5 mm-thick specimens were perforated
