Öğe Co-digestion of Cattle Manure and Tea Waste for Biogas Production(Int Journal Renewable Energy Research, 2018) Aksay, Mehmet Volkan; Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Calhan, RahmanThe increase of world population brings energy and food requirements. Increasing energy demand drives humanity towards new energy sources and work towards energy efficiency developments. Concordantly, due to population growth, the amount of waste is also increasing and causing environmental -issues. Biogas production by co-digestion of wastes -could be a common solution to both issues. Animal manures are typically used as a main substrate in co-digestion applications. Tea waste is used as a co-substrate in this -work due to having large production and consumption volume in Turkey. The aim of this study is to emerge new methods for disposal and reuse of household tea waste. For this purpose, co-digestion method was carried out to determine the biogas potential of household tea waste. Laboratory scale batch type co-digestion is carried out for 80 days under mesophilic (37 +/- 2 degrees C) conditions. All reactors fed with different mixing ratio of wastes and operated with different stirring speeds. The results showed that co-digestion of the wastes have positive impact on biogas and methane yield. Optimum biogas yield is 296.89 mL/gVS and 77.10% methane content are obtained from A2 which consist of 75% cattle manure and 25% tea waste with 100 rpm stirring speed. According to the results, co-digestion of cattle manure and household tea waste both have a positive effect on biogas production and methane content of biogas.Öğe CO2 emission during the combustion of Orhaneli lignite coal(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2017) Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Ceylan, Mehmet Ali; Okutan, Hasancan; Atakul, Husnu; Berrin, Engin; Coskun, Tuba; Inanc, OzgurPurpose - In Turkey, dependence on foreign countries for energy is a problem which upsets all economic balances. Turkey's biggest fossil energy source is lignite coal. Therefore, energy conversion of lignite in thermal plants, causing minimum environmental effect is extremely important. The basic problem in terms of the combustion technology is to improve the combustion technology that can burn the low-qualified fuels that do not have standard fuel features (lignite, peat, schist). The most suitable technology today for the efficient and clean combustion of nonstandard low-qualified fuels is the combustion at fluidized-bed technology. In this study, CO2 emission that occurs during the combustion of Orhaneli coal that is one of our native low-qualified lignite, has been investigated according to the experimental study. Design/methodology/approach - For this combustion experiment, laboratory-scaled circulating fluidized-bed (CFB) process that exists at TU BITAK-MAM Energy Institute which has been designed and used before has been used. The effect of excess-air coefficient, combustion type and bed temperature to the greenhouse gas formation and CO2 emission has been investigated experimentally. In terms of flue gas emissions, it has been detected that the decrease of the amount of CO2 that has occurred has no positive effects on combustion efficiency, water vapor, SO2, NOx, CO and other gases which occur during deficient combustion must be thought as a whole and each reaction affects each other similar to complex reactions. Findings - As a consequence of measuring CO2 emissions over 10 minute periods, CO2 emissions are 12.43 percent average, CO2 decreases at different air coefficient values; Often form undesirable side reactions such as CO, NOx with back and forth reactions. Originality/value - The importance of aerodynamic structure of the system, and the losses and leakages forming in the system has been observed experimental and affected parameters are evaluated.Öğe Design of Hazelnut Drying System Supported By Solar Energy, Investigation of Drying Performance and Determination of Proper Drying Model(Int Journal Renewable Energy Research, 2020) Acar, Bahadir; Dagdeviren, Abdullah; Ozkaymak, MehmetRapid and efficient drying process for the hazelnuts is required because of the lack of plain areas for solar drying due to the rough landforms in the Black Sea Region, high amount of cloudy days, causing product deteriorations and rots by instantaneous rain transitions and unexpected sudden rains. In this study, a hazelnut drying system supported by solar energy in order to achieve a rapid and efficient drying process was designed and drying performance was examined. In the designed system, a spiral shaft was used for movements of the hazelnuts in the drying chamber. Besides, the inner temperature of the chamber increased with the help of a sun collector. The process control device was used to keep the inner temperature as constant at 40 degrees C. In the experiments, 20kg weight hazelnut husk was used. The experiment was performed between 09:00 and 17:00 hours in a day with normal sunlight conditions and the total drying process took about 8 hours. The moisture ratios (MR) and drying rates (DR) graphics were obtained by scaling weight losses of the hazelnuts in each hour. As a result, it is observed that the 20kg weight of the hazelnuts decreased to the 17.201kg and therewith the total removed moisture from the hazelnuts was about 2.799kg. In the light of the moisture ratios obtained by experiments, 8 different kinetic drying models were performed with MATLAB software. According to the kinetic model results, the lowest reduced chi-square (chi(2)) and root mean square error (RMSE) were about 241x10(-6) and 155x10(-4) respectively. In addition, the coefficient of determination (R-2) was calculated as 0.9982 which is the highest result closest to 1. Among the 8 kinetic models, the Page model is given the best results for the drying process.Öğe Determination freeze-drying characteristics of ottoman strawberries(Gazi Univ, 2023) Acar, Bahadir; Dagdeviren, Abdullah; Yildiz, Busra Meryem; Ozkaymak, MehmetThis study was performed to define the kinetic drying model and to define the effective diffusivity coefficient of the fruit, which is called ottoman strawberries in the literature. In the study, strawberries by the weight of 100 g and with a thickness of 5 mm were placed in the drying device, and the data were processed by observing the weight loss every two hours after being subjected to the drying process for 14 hours. 8 different kinetic drying models were applied to the acquired data using the MATLAB program. As a result of the application, the estimated standard errors (RMSE), chi-square (X2), regression coefficients (R2) were calculated, error analysis was performed, R2, X2, and RMSE values were found, as 9,998x10-1, 6,993x10-5 and 0.7242x10-2. According to these results, the model of strawberry was determined that the most suitable model is the Page model. Also, the effective diffusivity coefficients for ottoman strawberries were calculated as 2.73286 x 10-10 m2/s. It was confirmed that the calculated effective diffusivity value was within the reference range mentioned in the literature (10-12 m2/s - 10-8 m2/s) for food products.Öğe Drying of Kanlıca Mushroom by the Hot Air Drying Method and the Investigations of Its Effects on Its Quality(Gazi Univ, 2023) Ongun, Goknur Kayatas; Aktas, Mustafa; Acar, Bahadir; Ozkaymak, MehmetIn this study, by providing the hot air drying of Kanlica mushroom collected from Karabuk city; prevention of aflatoxin occurrence, shelf life extension, taking precaution against early putrefaction and decomposition, protection of the beneficent aromas in its content have been ensured.

The work was done within the blade angle range of 25 degrees -85 degrees with an angular gradient of 20 degrees. A special name has been given to the VAWR concerned in this paper, where it was called Straight Slant Blades (SSBs). The so-called multi-stream tube (MST) model was modified to be suitable for SSBs. MST is an aerodynamic model, which was previously used to work on what is known as Darrieus and H-Darrieus vertical axis wind turbines. A computer program is designed and developed using Microsoft Visual Basic to be consistent with the objectives of this research. As for verifying the effectiveness of this program, its theoretical results were compared with previous laboratory results from other research studies as it proved its effectiveness in achieving satisfactory results commensurate with the objective of this study. This study is applied to four groups of different engineering designs for the SSB rotor, where each group is concerned with one of the geometric variables confined to the rotor height 2H, the rotor radius R, the number of rotor blades N, and the airfoil C. The results obtained are displayed as rotor power coefficient curves as a function of blade tip speed ratio. As it resulted in the ideal range for the angle of the blade between 45 degrees and 65 degrees, according to the rotor in this range, the value of maximum power coefficient Cp-MAX is at its maximum and the range of tip speed ratios is the highest in addition to the diminution of the problem of self-movement.Öğe The effect of thermal camera and pyrometer usage in industrial tempering furnaces on optimum combustion performance(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2015) Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Selimli, Selcuk; Kaya, Durmus; Yilmaz, Esref; Tabak, Abdulsamed; Aksay, Mehmet VolkanThe decrease of energy sources, the increase of energy need and energy costs, competitive conditions in industry and environmental sensitivity require the effective usage of energy sources.

To save the electricity people should know the consumption values of the devices and have idea about the consumed electricity. In this study, RFID technology, which is an automatic identification system, smart plug systems are used after recognizing the identity of the device information about the electricity consumption of that device. In this way, I directed the user to use electrical devices, which can be used when the electricity tariff is cheap so that the user could save money. For an average family, only the electricity consumption of the washing machine and dishwasher accounts for 30% of the total consumption. A family that uses a multi-time tariff will be able to save 10-15% by using the mentioned washing machine and dishwasher for example at night when the electricity tariff is low.Öğe Evaluation of internal structure modifications effect of two-phase closed thermosyphon on performance: An experimental study(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021) Ozbas, Engin; Selimli, Selcuk; Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Frej, Alsediq S. S.In this paper, an experimental study has been carried to enhance the effectiveness of a two-phase closed ther-mosyphon (TPCT) type heat pipe. For this purpose, three different designs have been developed by modifying the internal structure so as not to interfere with the physical operation of TPCT. Three heat pipes with different internal structures were manufactured with additional pipes placed longitudinally inside the evaporator and condenser sections of the normal (conventional) TPCT. Ionized pure water is used as a working fluid at the same rate in Normal, Type-1, Type-2, and Type-3 heat pipes. TPCTs are positioned at three different inclination angles, 26 degrees, 41 degrees, and 56 degrees, to see the performance effect not only among themselves but also on the changes made by the gravitational effect. For each tilt angle, four TPCTs were simultaneously powered by solar energy on three different days. As a result of the experiments carried out in July, it has been observed that the optimum incli-nation angle for solar water heated TPCT is 26 degrees. In addition, it was found that with the increase of the angle of tilt, the thermal resistance (R) of the heat pipes also increased and the heat transferability of the TPCT decreased. Comparing the new designs and normal TPCT, Type-2 acted better at tilt angles of both 26 degrees and 41oAs a result, the heat transfer and efficiency of normal TPCT have been improved by almost 14% with Type-2 at the tilt angle of 26 degrees.Öğe Exergoeconomic analysis of a geothermal organic Rankine cycle power plant using the SPECO method(Wiley, 2017) Ergun, Alper; Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Koc, Gonca Aksoy; Ozkan, Salih; Kaya, DurmusIn this study, exergy and exergoeconomic analyses were performed for a geothermal, Rankine cycle (Binary) power plant that generates 7.5 MW of power. The exergy analysis showed that the highest destruction of exergy, that is, about 3200 kW, occurred in the vaporizer. The losses were about 2670, 1700, 1035, 880, 421, 349, 306, and 33 kW in the turbine, recuperator, condenser, separator, organic fluid pump, production pump, preheater, and injection pump, respectively. The exergy efficiency of the system was calculated as 32.3% at the reference temperature of 25 degrees C. The unit cost of the electricity produced in this plant is 7.96 $/Gj according to the exergoeconomic analysis that was made using the specific exergy cost (SPECO) method. It was determined that using low temperature sources is meaning significant. Thus, thermodynamic and thermoeconomic (exergoeconomic) analyses should be conducted in current plants to identify the inefficient equipment that is increasing costs.

As the dried product, kanlica mushroom, which is an endemic plant, contains high amounts of protein and amino acids. In this study, the 5 mm thick cut kanlica mushroom was placed in a freeze-drying device and the drying process was initiated. Weight losses during drying were recorded and kinetic models were created. In the experiment lasting 14 hours in total, 100 gr. The weights of the canlica mushrooms were measured every two hours and MR (Moisture rates) were calculated. According to our results, the lowest chi-square (X-2) was 1.851 x10(-4) and the estimated standard error (RMSE) value was 0.01358. The correlation value (R-2) was calculated as 0.9988, close to one. The best Page model gave these results from the kinetic models. The effective diffusivity for the Kanlica Mushroom with 5 mm thicknesses can be calculated at about 3.2035x10(-10) m(2)/s. It was confirmed that the calculated effective diffusivity value was within the reference range mentioned in the literature (10(-12) m(2)/s - 10(-8) m(2)/s) for food products.Öğe Freeze Drying of Saffron (Crocus sativus L.)(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2011) Acar, Bahadir; Sadikoglu, Hasan; Ozkaymak, MehmetSaffron obtained from the dried stigmas of a flower scientifically known as Crocus sativus L. is considered to be the most precious and expensive agricultural product due to its labor-intensive harvest and post-harvest processing. The post-harvest processing such as dehydration and storage conditions determine stability, quality, and economical value of the final product. The contents of crocin (degraded carotenoids) and safranal (carotenoid oxidation products) are the key components that characterize color, taste, and aroma characteristics of saffron. In this work, the quality parameters such as crocin and safranal contents of commercial saffron that were obtained by using the freeze-drying method and natural sun drying were studied. The sarfanal contents of the samples dried in a freeze dryer were found to be five times higher than the safranal contents of the samples dried naturally under the sun, while crocin contents of the samples dried in a freeze dryer were about 40% higher than the crocin contents of the samples dried naturally under the sun. These encouraging results indicate that the freeze-drying process can be used effectively for dehydration of saffron by minimal loss of safranal and crocin contents.Öğe Freeze Drying Process of Kiwi Slices with Various Thicknesses and Investigation Drying Characteristic of Process(Gazi Univ, 2023) Acar, Bahadir; Dagdeviren, Abdullah; Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Guinaleh, Abdillahi RoblehIn the study, the kiwi fruit was sliced into various thicknesses as 5 mm and 7 mm, and those sliced specimens were put in the freeze-drying device. the mass losses of the specimens were measured and saved during the drying process and kinetic drying models were performed using those measurements. The mass losses of each kiwi slices in 100 g mass were measured every two hours in the experiment lasting 14 hours in total and moisture ratios (MR) were calculated as well. Considering the experimental results, 8 different kinetics drying models were performed using MATLAB software. As a result, the lowest reduced chi-square (X-2) values for 5 mm and 7 mm thicknesses were calculated about 8.261x10(-6) and 1.705x10(-5) respectively, the root means square error values (RMSE) were about 0.002865 and 0.004146, respectively. Also, the coefficient of determination (R-2) for both thicknesses was calculated as 0.9999 which was the highest result closest to 1. Among the 8 different kinetic drying models, the Logarithmic model was chosen as a proper kinetic drying model for kiwi products. When the moisture contents and drying rates were considered it was seen that the drying rate of kiwi slices with 7 mm thickness exhibited slow behavior because of the higher moisture content. Besides, it was determined that the effective diffusivity coefficients for specimens with 5 mm and 7 mm thickness were calculated as 2.25 x 10(-10) m(2)/s and 3.28 x 10(-10) m(2)/s respectively.Öğe Freeze-drying kinetics and diffusion modeling of hawthorn(Yildiz Technical Univ, 2023) Hagig, Khaled Ali; Acar, Bahadir; Dagdeviren, Abdullah; Taskesen, Edip; Ozkaymak, MehmetThis study tests freeze-drying (FD) technology (Scanvac Coolsafe model, Labogene brand) to preserve hawthorn fruit.

In this optimization, total net present cost (TNPC) for economic analysis, loss of power supply probability (LPSP) for reliability, and localized cost of energy (LCOE) for determining the unit energy cost were considered and an effective control algorithm was developed to decide the power source for improving system reliability. We used genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA), which are commonly used in the literature. On the other hand, we utilized the Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), which was recently found out and inspired by the hierarchy and hunting instincts of grey wolves. The results of GWO algorithm were also compared with GA and SA and confirmed that GWO is satisfying. GWO achieved better results to solve problems by setting LPSP to both 0.02 and 0.01 upper limits. When LPSP set to 0.02 maximum point, GWO suggested PV system at 86.39 kW power and BG at 50 kW power. Consequently, the energy requirement of a faculty was supplied by an optimized and designed PV/WT/BM HES. In addition, by the installation of optimized system, 144.29 tons of CO2 emissions per year will be reduced.Öğe Hydrogen Production through Alkaline Electrolyzers: A Techno-Economic and Enviro-Economic Analysis(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, 2023) Naqvi, Syed Arslan Hassan; Taner, Tolga; Ozkaymak, Mehmet; Ali, Hafiz MuhammadHydrogen production through an alkaline electrolyzer as well as a techno-economic and enviro-economic analysis are presented.
