      Sharan, Girja; Tripathy, A.; Kumar, M. Krishna (2010-04-05)
      A Simulation model of a fertilizer plant has been made. It includes activities from production to despatch, from the plant site. Input to the model is daily demand which comes to the plant as despatch instructions. The ...

    • Fourier representation of ambient temperature and duration of sunshine 

      Sharan, Girja; Kumar, M. Krishna (2010-03-27)
      While constructing a transient thermal model of solar cooker, a need was felt for analytic expressions for ambient temperature and sunshine duration. This paper, therefore, presents the Fourier analysis of ambient temperature ...
