Robotic Path: Analysis of Algebraic Topological Properties of Stream Lines Due to Source-Sink, Dipole and Vortex
Abstract: The importance of robotic path planning cannot be overstated. Robotic path planning plays a crucial role in ensuring efficient and safe navigation for robots. It enables robots two autonomously determine the most optimal path to reach their destination while avoiding of obstacles and potential collisions. By carefully analyzing the environment and considering various factors such as distance, speed, and obstacles, robotic path planning enhances the overall performance and productivity of …

Enhancing the Heat Transfer in the Thermal Chimney by Attaching the Fin under CFD Analysis
Abstract: The primary and secondary heaters in heat exchangers were numerically evaluated at nominal temperatures of 140°C for the primary heaters, 100°C for the secondary heaters, and 20°C for the ambient temperature in order to validate the design idea for enhancing the air temperature. The “convective heat transfer” of air in a thermal chimney built to laboratory size using two different types of electrical heaters and a rectangular cross-section of constant …
