Bluetooth -tekniikan käyttö sähkölukon tiedonsiirrossa

Uudet langattomat tekniikat kehittyvät nopeasti ja ovat pian tulossa yhä suuremmaksi osaksi jokapäiväistä elämäämme. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää sopiiko Bluetooth teknologia käytettäväksi sähkölukon ja sitä ohjaavan keskuksen välisenä tiedonsiirtoväylänä. Työn kirjallisuusosuudessa selvitetään tavoitetaanko langattomalla tekniikalla halutut raja-arvot jotta käyttö sähkölukossa olisi järkevää. Kokeellisessa osassa mitataan oleellisia muuttujia, kuten kantamaa sekä virrankulutusta. Samalla myös verrataan keskenään kahta tutkimuksen kohteeksi valittua Bluetooth moduulia. Tekniikka täytti sille asetetut rajat ja kokeellisen tutkimuksen perusteella todettiin teknologian sekä valitun moduulin sopivan hyvin käyttötarkoitustaan varten.

Natural freeze crystallization : purification of aqueous Na2SO4 solutions with cold air

The aim of this thesis was to examine efficiency of freeze crystallization and eutectic freeze crystallization in purification of wastewater by imitating natural freezing. In addition, a mathematic model based on heat transfer to determine ice thickness and ice growth rate was examined. Also, the amount of sodium sulfate crystallized at the eutectic point was under investigation. In literature part, advantages and applications of the freeze crystallization are discussed, and possibility to apply it in Northern hemisphere winter weather conditions is under study. Furthermore, main sources of sodium sulfate from Finnish industries are described. The experiments were carried out in modified chest freezer, where a fan was placed in order to obtain laminar air flow inside. Picolog PT-104 data logger was used to monitor temperature changes in the salt-water solution, and constant temperature was maintained in the crystallizer with Lauda RP 850 thermostat. The impurity of formed ice layer was determined by weighing ice samples after experiment and again after 24 hours drying to full dryness in oven. Volume of salt-water solution was also measured after experiment. The highest purity of formed ice layer was obtained with small temperature difference and with long freezing time. On the other hand, the amount of crystallized sodium sulfate was its greatest with long freezing time and higher temperature difference. The results obtained by the mathematic model and empirical results did not differ significantly in most of the experiments. However, the difference increased when salt-water mixture reached its eutectic point, leading to simultaneous ice and salt crystallization. Eutectic point was reached only with the highest salt concentration with one exception. In these cases, calculated values were in many cases greater than the experimental ones. In winter weather conditions freeze crystallization is cost-effective wastewater treatment method and rather simple. Nonetheless, the efficiency and separation rate are strongly depended on ambient temperature and its changes
