Anti-corrosive properties of 4-amino-3,5-bis(disubstituted)-1,2,4-triazole derivatives on mild steel corrosion in 2M H3PO4 solution: Experimental and theoretical studies
(Elsevier, 2016)The corrosion inhibitory effect of two 3,5-bis(disubstituted)-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole derivatives, namely 3,5-bis(4-tolyl)-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole (K1) and 3,5-bis(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-amino-1,2,4-triazole (K2), for mild ... -
Assessment of the national DSM potential in mine underground services
(North-West University, 2003)ESKOM is moving towards a price structure for electricity which reflects, as far as possible, the real cost of generation. It is called real time pricing (RTP). ESKOM developed this cost structure to coax customers to ... -
Computational cost of an exergy-based fault detection scheme implemented in a commercial process simulator
(Elsevier, 2019)Energy-based fault detection and isolation (FDI) schemes show promise in terms of applicability to petrochemical industries and the broader process industries. Model-based FDI schemes offer pronounced advantages over more ... -
A conceptual study of a natural circulation cooling loop for a PWR containment
(North-West University, 2011)The removal of heat from the containment building is an important consideration in the design of a nuclear power plant. In this investigation a simple rectangular natural circulation loop was simulated to determine whether ... -
Design and analysis for efficient simulation in petrochemical industry
(North-West University, 2008)Building an industrial simulation model is a very time and cost intensive exercise because these models are large and consist of complicated computer code. Fully understanding the relationships between the inputs and the ... -
Design of a small antenna for indoor electronic monitoring
(2011)The objective of this project is to design an antenna for use in the electronic monitoring of persons convicted of non-violent crimes. If implemented, electronic monitoring will lighten the load on the South African ... -
Developing ESCO procedures for large telecommunication facilities using novel simulation techniques
(North-West University, 2006)Peak electricity demand in South Africa will exceed the available operational generation capacity in 2007. The state utility Eskom is addressing this challenge, inter aha, with the implementation of the Demand-side ... -
Development and evaluation of an R–744 evaporator model
(North-West University, 2013)In recent years carbon dioxide (CO2, R-744) has moved to the foreground as an environmentally friendly alternative to commonly used CFCs and HFCs, which are being phased out due to its high ozone depleting and global warming ... -
Development of a dewatering control strategy to prevent flooding within deep-level mines
(North-West University (South Africa)., 2022)Deep-level mines are faced with continually increasing challenges regarding heat. New mining depths are constantly reached, and working conditions are becoming intolerable and unsafe. Underground conditions must be controlled ... -
The development of a methodology to measure & verify the impact of a national solar water heating program
(North-West University, 2010)The School for Mechanical Engineering at the North-West University is home to one of South Africa's most established Measurement & Verification (M&V) teams. The team is involved with South Africa's electricity utility, ...
