    Thin-Layer Drying Modeling in the Hot Oil-Heated Stenter
    (International Journal of Thermophysics, 2020) Ünal, Fatih; Akan, Ahmet Erhan
    Although the drying processes have an important place in the textile industry in terms of drying or various textile finishing applications, they are considered as an expensive process in terms of energy and time consumed. Therefore, it is of great importance to simulate with mathematical models the drying behavior of a stenter (ram machine), one of the most preferred convection dryers in the textile industry. For this purpose, in this study, modeling was attempted of the drying behavior of 67 % Cotton + 33 % Polyester containing Thessaloniki knit fabrics, using experimental data obtained from drying processes performed in 9 different drying operations in a 10-chamber hot oil-heated stenter and 12 different empirical and semi-empirical thin-layer models that are frequently used in the literature. R2 values from regression analysis were evaluated as the primary factor in the model fit selection. According to the results obtained, it was understood that the Diffusion Approach model with R2 values ranging from 0.9991 to 0.9999, Two Term Model with R2 values ranging from 0.9995 to 0.9999, and the Modified Henderson and Pabis model with R2 values ranging from 0.9995 to 0.9999 gave the most appropriate results upon simulating drying behavior. In this regard, this study, which contains explanatory information on the drying behavior in a stenter, is thought to be useful to researchers.

    Bu çalışmada kurutma havasının ısıtılmasında LPG kullanılan yatay tip mısır kurutma tesisinin kurutma odasına farklı kurutma havası giriş sıcaklıkları ile elde edilen sonuçlara bağlı olarak enerji ve maliyet analizleri yapılmıştır. Kurutma sürecinde, sisteme sabit hava debisinde farklı sıcaklıklarda (85°C, 90°C ve 95°C) kurutma havası gönderilerek belirlenen düğüm noktalarında sıcaklık(°C), bağıl nem(%) ve hava hızı(m/s) ölçülmüştür. Sistemde belirlenen 6 adet düğüm noktasından elde edilen verilere bağlı olarak yapılan enerji ve maliyet analizinde kurutma havası giriş sıcaklığı, ısıtıcı giriş havasının sıcaklığı ve bağıl nem değişimlerinin yakıt sarfiyatı, enerji verimliliği ve birim kurutma maliyet üzerindeki etkileri değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, kurutma giriş havası sıcaklığının artmasının enerji verimliliğini düşürdüğü, birim kurutma maliyetini ve yakıt sarfiyatını artırdığı tespit edilmiştir. Isıtıcı giriş havasının bağıl neminin artması ile yakıt sarfiyatının ve birim kurutma maliyetinin arttığı ve enerji verimliliğinin düştüğü tespit edilmiştir.

    CONDENSATION ANALYSIS OF THE INSULATION OF WALLS IN MARDIN PROVINCE ACCORDING TO DIFFERENT LOCATIONS
    (2019) Ünal, Fatih
    In this study, condensation and vapor diffusion caused by different positioned insulation in the wall were analyzed for Mardin province. In the analysis, according to the 2008 standard of TS 825, the MATLAB calculation program was used with the Glaser graphing method and graphical user interface (GUI). Extruded polyurethane foam was used as the insulation material and normal unreinforced concrete was chosen as the wall. Evaporation and condensation values were determined by creating 6 different wall models with the same insulation thickness of 20 cm and an unreinforced concrete wall was covered with 2 cm plaster on the inside with a 3 cm thickness on the outside. The data obtained for 2 cm and 4 cm insulation thicknesses are presented in tables and the results are interpreted for Mardin province. Consequently, it was seen that the worst wall structure in terms of condensation and evaporation was obtained in the middle insulated wall and later in the interior insulated wall structure. The externally insulated wall did not show any condensation.

    Comparison of Energy and Cost Analysis of Two Different Industrial Corn Drying Plants Using Solid Fuel
    (IJARSET, 2018) ÜNAL, Fatih; BULUT, Hüsamettin; KAHRAMAN, Ahmet
    In this study, the energy and cost analyzes of two different corn drying plants using solid fuel in the heating of drying air are performed. In the evaluated drying processes, corn which has high humidity, dried to a value below 15% relative humidity which is the storage humidity. In the drying process, thermodynamic properties such as temperature, relative humidity and air velocity of the node points determined in the systems were measured. The continuous operating temperatures of the facilities specified for analyzes were taken into account. In the analyzes, measurements were made for the drying air inlet temperatures of drying plants which was drying temperature of 70°C and 112°C. Based on the results obtained at the determined nodes, the influences on the inlet temperature of the drying air, the thermal value of the fuel, the fuel consumption, the energy efficiency and the unit drying cost have been evaluated. As a result, it has been found that the increase in inlet air temperature reduces boiler efficiency and energy efficiency, increases unit drying cost and fuel consumption. It has been found that high thermal value fuel usage has an important role in decreasing drying time as it allows working at high temperatures.

    (Murat Yakar, 2021) Akan, A.E.; Ünal, F.; Özkan, D.B.
    This study is an adaptation of ammonia cascade cooling systems using carbon dioxide on ice cream production machines and includes thermodynamic analysis of R717/R744 cascade refrigeration system with R717 refrigerant single-stage refrigeration system and investigation of its efficiency. As a result of the analyses, the COP value of the single-stage system was 3.67, the Carnot efficiency was 0.57, the second law efficiency was 0.19 and the power required to operate the compressor was 27.55 kW. In the cascade cooling system, the COP value was 4.46, the Carnot efficiency 0.59 and the compressor power 22.7 kW in the high-temperature part, while the COP value was measured as 14.65, the Carnot efficiency 0.58 and the compressor power 6.4 kW in the low-temperature part. For the whole cascade system, the COP 3.24 and the second law efficiency were found to be 0.43. When the results were compared, it was concluded that although the COP value of the cascade cooling system was 0.43 points lower than the single-stage ammonia system, when our country's climate conditions and the thermophysical properties carbon dioxide gas were considered together, one of the most suitable designs was the cascade cooling system. © Author(s) 2021.

    An Applıcatıon Of Exergoeconomic Analysıs For Power Plants
    (Vinča Institute of Nuclear Sciences, 2018) Ünal, Fatih
    Currently, energy resources are rapidly consumed. Therefore, scientists and engineers study the effective use of energy. In the present study, a thermodynamic and exergoeconomic analysis was performed in a thermal power plant in Turkey. The study involved determining the thermodynamic properties of 27 node points in a thermal power plant unit, and this was followed by calculating energy and exergy values of every node. Mean exergy costs were calculated by establishing energy and exergy balances of the equipment with respect to the calculated results. Subsequently, lost and damaged energies and exergies were calculated, and exergoeconomic factors were determined. The equipments were compared with each other on a graph based on the obtained results. The maximum rate of exergy loss and cost of exergy destruction corresponded to 79.5% and 886,66 $/h, respectively. The maximum exergy losses in a thermal power plant occurred in the boiler, turbine groups, condenser, heating group, pumps, and auxiliary groups. The highest and second highest law efficiencies of the studied thermal power plant corresponded to 32.3% and 28.5%, respectively. The study also involved presenting suggestions for improvement. Additionally, exergoeconomic analyses were conducted while considering the power plants’ investment and equipment maintenance costs. It is expected that the calculation method and the obtained results can be applied to other thermal power plants.

    Modelling of the Hourly Horizontal Solar Diffuse Radiation in Sanliurfa, Turkey
    (Vinca inst Nuclear Sci, 2020) Beyazit, Nesrin Ilgin; Unal, Fatih; Bulut, Husamettin
    Horizontal diffuse solar radiation has been calculated over various models by using the total radiation data obtained from the horizontal surface due to reasons such as lack of adequate measurements and expensive measuring instruments. hi this study, the measurements were calculated using the obtained data between the years 2009 and 2016 from solar radiation measurement system with solar tracking system, which belongs to the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Sanliurfa Harran University, Turkey. Three horizontal solar diffuse radiation models have been proposed by using the relationship between the diffuse radiation ratio and the clarity index obtained by eight years data. Horizontal solar diffuse radiation values were calculated and compared with the measurement data for Sanliurfa by using 15 models of diffuse radiation given in the literature and the results obtained from the models. The statistical errors of the proposed models and 15 different diffusive radiation models were calculated. As dijfuse radiation varies with time, it is determined that modelling of Model 1 and Model 2 obtained from Sanliurfa data gives better results in terms of clarity index constraints. Furthermore, although the desired success cannot be achieved with Model 2 in terms of t(stat), it has been determined that the relevant model provides better results than many models when compared to statistical errors. With the improvements to be made on Model 2, a local estimation model is thought to give better results.
