This project seek to modify the existing cassava grating machine to make it to be self-feeding in operation, to make the operation of the machine easier, safer The existing processing techniques used in the production of cassava starch and cassava dough leaves much to be desired. There are difficulties in the grating of the cassava dough, since... Continue Reading

A lawnmower is a machine that uses a revolving blade or blades to cut a lawn grass. Many designs have been made, each suited to a particular purpose. Manual grass cutter has environmental issues regarding pollution's and also require the need of man power to operate and has a great maintenance to its engine. This robot is design to be environment... Continue Reading

Due to the need for recycling Polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE) materials, especially bottles because of its various uses and applications, it was necessary that a locally made machine for crushing and shredding the PET materials was fabricated. The crushing process is necessary so as to aid the transportation and workability of the... Continue Reading

This project covers the design and construction of a power generating windmill. The designs was carried out based on long-term available wind data of bida at 10m above the ground level. The average wind speed for Bida is 5.24m/s and rated turbine wind speed is 6.29m/s. The design of each components of the system were carefully constructed in a... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT This project illustrates the use of an exergetic approach to analyze the performance of a vapor compression refrigeration system using a refrigerant solution of a nanoparticle (TiO2), mineral oil, and R410a (base refrigerant). Exergy investigation is a thermodynamics strategy which allows for the assessment and improvement of a... Continue Reading

The major components of a gas turbine are compressor, combustors, turbine and generator. It operates by continuous drawing in fresh air into the compressor. The Air is then compressed to a high pressure in the compressor and discharge into the combustion. Here the air is missed with gas and burns continuous once ignited to increase its energy...
