A finite volume method for the analysis of the thermo-flow field of a solar chimney collector

Beyers, Johannes Henricus Meiring 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MEng)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study investigates the implementation of the finite volume numerical method applicable to non-orthogonal control volumes and the application of the method to calculate the thermo-flow field within the collector area of a solar chimney power generating plant. The discretisation of the governing equations for the transient, Newtonian, incompressible and turbulent fluid flow, including heat transfer, is presented for a non-orthogonal coordinate frame. The standard k - E turbulence model, modified to include rough surfaces, is included and evaluated in the method. An implicit solution procedure (SIP-semi implicit procedure) as an alternative to a direct solution procedure for the calculation of the flow field on nonstaggered grids is investigated, presented and evaluated in this study. The Rhie and Chow interpolation practice was employed with the pressurecorrection equation to eliminate the presence of pressure oscillations on nonstaggered grids. The computer code for the solution of the three-dimensional thermo-flow fields is developed in FORTRAN 77. The code is evaluated against simple test cases for which analytical and experimental results exist. It is also applied to the analysis of the thermo-flow field of the air flow through a radial solar collector. KEYWORDS: NUMERICAL METHOD, FINITE VOLUME, NON-ORTHOGONAL, k+-e TURBULENCE MODEL, SIP / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die studie ondersoek die implementering van 'n eindige volume numeriese metode van toepassing op nie-ortogonale kontrole volumes asook die toepassing van die metode om die termo-vloei veld binne die kollekteerder area van 'n sonskoorsteen krag aanleg te bereken. Die diskretisering van die behoudsvergelykings vir die tyd-afhanlike, Newtonse, onsamedrukbare en turbulente vloei, insluitende hitteoordrag, word beskryf vir 'n nie-ortogonale koordinaatstelsel. Die standaard k - E turbulensiemodel, aangepas om growwe oppervlakrandvoorwaardes te hanteer, is ingesluit en geevalueer in die studie. 'n Implisiete oplossings metode (SIP-semi implisiete prosedure) as alternatief vir 'n direkte oplossingsmetode is ondersoek en geimplimenteer vir die berekening van die vloeiveld met nie-verspringde roosters. 'n Rhie en Chow interpolasie metode is gebruik tesame met die drukkorreksie-vergelyking ten einde ossilasies in die drukveld in die nie-verspringde roosters te vermy. Die rekenaarkode vir die oplossing van die drie dimensionele termo-vloeiveld is ontwikkel in FORTRAN 77. Die kode is geevalueer teen eenvoudige toetsprobleme waarvoor analitiese en eksperimentele resultate bestaan. Die kode IS ook gebruik om die termo-vloeiveld binne 'n radiale son kollekteerder te analiseer. SLEUTELWOORDE: NUMERIESE METODE, EINDIGE VOLUME, NIE-ORTOGONAAL, k - E TURBULENSIE MODEL, SIP

Women's dresses from eighteenth-century Scotland : fashion objects and identities

Taylor, Emily Joan January 2013 (has links)
Identity and its different constructions - national, social and personal, for example - are increasingly recognised as fundamental to understanding current and historic cultures. The reflexive relationship of identity issues with sartorial expression is a key concept within dress, fashion and textile studies. This thesis contributes to that growing body of knowledge by developing an understanding of how specific eighteenth century Scotswomen and their families related to their garments, thus bringing together contemporary study methods and understandings of identity with historic manifestations. This study of identity is embedded within an object-study methodology, following investigative practice and cataloguing methods currently used within the international museums community. This assists the secondary purpose of the thesis, which is to highlight a breadth of largely unpublished main garment objects within Scottish public and private collections. The intimate study of these objects has revealed stories of how daily life interacted with personal taste and style, purchase methods, garment use and international markets for individuals connected to Scotland. This has contributed material understanding to wider academic research areas, most importantly the everyday lives of eighteenth century Scotswomen, issues of identity within Scotland, and how European fashion trends were adopted or adapted by individuals outside of the major fashion centres of London and Paris. Study of the garments has involved stylistic analysis of their textiles and of their construction, connecting them to other extant and depicted garments from British and international collections. Thus providing material evidence of international styles in the eighteenth century, and matching two items in a rare example of extant main garments evidencing duplication in the eighteenth century handmade clothing industry.

From cultural heritage to cultural heritage informatics : critically investigating institutions, processes and artefacts

Innocenti, Perla January 2013 (has links)
Background and rationale: Collecting is a basic human activity, a cultural phenomenon establishing cultural values, defining authenticity and creating new identities for collected objects and collectors. For more than a decade, I have studied cultural heritage collections from three key interwoven perspectives. These approaches are evident in the six publications selected for this submission: • Architectural and organisational perspective: at the Vatican Gallery (Innocenti 2001a), Uffizi (Innocenti 2003a) and Biblioteca Laurenziana (Innocenti 2002a) I investigated institutional collector and key stakeholder strategies for designing collection space and displays. I then applied this analysis to‘knowledge architecture’ for industrial design artefacts and processes (Innocenti 2004c). • Procedural and functional perspective: from Palladio drawings (Innocenti 2005a) to industrial design knowledge bases (Innocenti 2004a), I investigated how to digitize, archive, render and make accessible cultural heritage as an accurate iconic representation, interwoven with documentary and cultural contexts. The work further led me to study the authenticity of born-digital artworks (Innocenti 2012c). • Artefact perspective: I explored how artists and institutional collectors address the preservation of artworks, from the Renaissance desks of the Biblioteca Laurenziana (Innocenti 2002a) to digital artworks (Innocenti 2012c), and the historical and theoretical implications of their choices. In each of these areas, I contextualized the interrelations between cultural heritage discourse and the history of collecting cultural artefacts within given historical, social and cultural periods. My work began in Italy, where cultural heritage is deeply rooted and widespread, and moved on to encompass Europe and North America in tracing the evolution of cultural heritage collectors’ strategies. I adopted an interdisciplinary approach, engaging perspectives, methods and theoretical frameworks from art history, art theory, museography, museology, library and information science, information technology, social anthropology and engineering. Starting from this multi-focal vantage point my research has resulted in contributions to knowledge, methods and theory. These publications on one hand demonstrate the continuum of key issues in cultural heritage creation, preservation and access as manifested in the strategies of institutional collectors and artists. On the other hand, they highlight the new paradigms and transformations introduced by digital and communication technologies, the shaping of cultural heritage informatics to address these transformations and the theoretical and methodological implications underlying them. Through my scholarly research, I contributed to progressing the canonical historicisation of cultural heritage, museography and museology, and to exploring the new paradigms and transformations introduced by digital and communication technologies to the disruptive and exciting world of cultural heritage informatics. The portfolio: The portfolio is a selection from Perla Innocenti’s more than forty publications of research carried out since 2001 on cultural heritage and informatics with the Universitá degli Studi di Roma ‘La Sapienza’, Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, Istituto Nazionale di Archeologia e Storia dell’Arte in Rome, Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna, Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Fondazione Andrea Palladio, Politecnico di Milano and EU-funded projects SHAMAN and MeLa. Six scientific publications are presented: two journal articles, a scholarly treatise, a published conference paper, key chapters from a monograph and one book chapter from an edited volume. The works have two key themes relevant to the critical analysis and understanding of heritage institutions’ evolution up to the digital age. The themes illustrate the contribution each publication has made to the literature and explain the relationship between the works submitted, including developments which have occurred between one piece and another. Theme I: Evolution of museography, museology and heritage studies Three publications are presented under this theme, each of these presenting the critical analysis of cultural heritage institutions and their artefacts within the historical evolution of museums and libraries. Publication I presents the critical analysis of the museographic principles applied by Luca Beltrami to the design of the Vatican Gallery, investigated and contextualised within its museographical and cultural history (Innocenti 2001a). Publication II presents the critical analysis and findings of the museological and museographical principles applied by Corrado Ricci to the Uffizi Gallery in the 19th Century, compared with the contemporary principles in the Uffizi applied by the former Superintendent and Italian Ministry Antonio Paolucci (Innocenti 2003a). Publication III presents the analysis and original findings of Michelangelo’s ergonomic design of the Biblioteca Laurenziana fittings, within the historical evolution of libraries (Innocenti 2002a). Theme II: Creating, managing, disseminating and preserving digital cultural heritage The publications presented in this theme relate to methodologies and processes characterising diverse typologies of analogue and digital cultural heritage and the emerging field of cultural informatics. Publication IV presents the novel methodological approach defined and applied within a relevant digitization project of Andrea Palladio manuscripts and maps (Innocenti 2005a). Publication V presents the outcomes of my investigation defining and implementing an online knowledge-based system supporting research and teaching of industrial design, which is formally considered part of Italian cultural heritage (Innocenti 2004a). Publication VI discusses the repositioning of traditional conservation concepts of historicity, authenticity and versioning in relation to born-digital artworks, based on findings from my research on preservation of computer-based artefacts by public collectors (Innocenti 2012a).

Le rôle des collections dans la légitimation de l'art marginal : le cas de la collection d'art pathologique Prinzhorn

Legault-Béliveau, Julie 08 1900 (has links)
Au 20e siècle en France et en Allemagne, l’art moderne prend son essor. Certains, comme Francastel, qualifient cet art de destruction d’un espace plastique classique. Cette destruction devient un vecteur de création chez plusieurs artistes qui, suite aux deux grandes guerres, remettent en question leur état « civilisé » et se tournent vers le « primitif » pour offrir une autre voie, loin de tout processus civilisateur. Cette admiration pour les peuples primitifs ainsi que pour les productions artistiques d’enfants, d’amateurs et de « fous » est visible chez plusieurs collectionneurs d’art. En constituant des collections d’art marginal, ces derniers défendaient une idéologie qui propose une autre forme de culture en remplacement d’une civilisation dépassée. Grâce à leurs collections, la libre expression se positionna contre le rationalisme occidental. On compte, parmi ces collectionneurs, le psychiatre Hans Prinzhorn, le marchand d’art Wilhelm Udhe et les artistes André Breton, Jean Dubuffet et Arnulf Rainer. Chacun d’eux a eu un impact sur la construction du récit de l’art moderne et de l’art contemporain. Leurs collections ont chacune sa spécificité et offrent des vocabulaires différents pour parler de productions artistiques marginales, c’est-à-dire se développant « hors culture ». C’est par l’analyse des terminologies employées par les collectionneurs, principalement la dénomination d’art pathologique, que nous tracerons un portrait de la construction historique de l’art marginal en lien avec l’art moderne / Modern art began its rise at the beginning of the twentieth century in both France and Germany. Somme art theorists like Francastel, propose an identifying characteristic of modern art is the deconstruction of the classic plastic space. During the two World Wars, many artists used this deconstructive process, thus reinvigorating art with ‘‘primitive’’ styles which challenged the ‘‘civilized’’ art of the day. This fascination with the ‘‘primitive’’, including art from children, amateurs, and the ‘‘mentally ill’’, is apparent in many art collections of the time. By collecting these forms of art, the collectors were supporting this new ideology in opposition to occidental rationalism. The psychiatrist Hans Prinzhorn, along with the art sellers Wilhelm Udhe and the artists Andre Breton, Jean Dubuffet and Arnulf Rainer, are a few of the notable collectors. They each influenced the progress of Modern Art; the impact of which is now evident in contemporary art. The individuality of their unique collections offers different interpretations of the marginalized ‘‘outsider art’’. By analyzing the terminologies employed by these collectors, particularly in regards to ‘‘pathological art’’, we may outline a portrait of the development of ‘‘outsider art’’ as it progressed along side modern art.

Les cercles de collectionneurs et de numismates dans la région de Pékin durant la première moitié du XIXème siècle : échange des monnaies anciennes, partage des idées et renouveau des études numismatiques / A Social Network of Coin collectors and numismatists around Beijing during the first half of the 19th century : Exchanging Coins and Ideas

Jankowski, Lyce 06 November 2012 (has links)
La période qui s’étende de la fin du XVIIIe siècle à la première moitié du XIXe constitue un âge d’or de la numismatique chinoise. Suite à l’édition en 1751 du Qinding qianlu, nombreux sont les collectionneurs qui s’intéressent à la monnaie et qui s’engagent dans la publication de catalogues, de monographies ou d’études érudites. Ces publications qui s’inspirent des méthodes appliquées en littérature par le courant d’érudition appelé l’ « Ecole des vérifications et des preuves » (kaozhengxue), entraînent une révolution méthodologique dans les études numismatiques. L’œuvre la plus représentative de cette période est le Guquanhui de Li Zuoxian (1807-1876) publiée en 1864. Cet ouvrage rassemble les collections, ainsi que les idées d’une communauté de passionnés qui correspondaient régulièrement, s’échangeaient des monnaies, estampages ou encore manuscrits et se réunissaient parfois. Mettre en évidence la nature des correspondances entre membres de ce cercle et l’existence d’échanges marchands et amicaux entre passionnés à la capitale permet de comprendre dans quelle mesure les échanges informels ont contribué à l’élaboration de critères d’étude des monnaies et à faire faire un bond qualitatif sans précédent à la numismatique chinoise. Il s’agit de voir quand quelle mesure les réseaux de sociabilité existant entre collectionneurs ont contribué aux progrès significatifs de cette époque, c’est-à-dire de retracer l’apparition d’une exigence de scientificité dans le milieu des collectionneurs privés. Cette recherche questionne aussi l’articulation entre le goût de la collection et la réflexion historique savante. / The period from the late eighteenth century to the mid-nineteenth constitutes a golden age for Chinese numismatics. Following the publication in 1751 of the Qinding qianlu (The Imperially Ordered Catalogue of Coins), many collectors became interested in coins and engaged themselves in publishing catalogues, monographs, or studies. These publications using the methods employed in littérature by the « Evidential studies » (kaozhengxue), created a révolution in methods in numismatics studies. The most représentative work of this period is the Guquanhui (Catalogue of Ancient Coins) published by Li Zuoxian (1807-1876) in 1864. This book brings together the collections and the ideas of a community of collectors that met regularly, exchanged coins, rubbings or unpublished documents. These informal exchanges have contributed to the invention of criteria for the study of coins and to the qualitative leap made in Chinese numismatics. An attempt will be made to understand how social networks between collectors have conrtbuted to the significant progress of that time, and to trace the emergence of a requirement of scientific approach among coin collectors. This reserch also questions the relation betwwen the taste for collection and historical thinking.

Catadores: uma perspectiva de sua inserção no campo da indústria de reciclagem / Collectors: a perspective of their inclusion in the recycling industry field

Dias, Sylmara Lopes Francelino Gonçalves 26 August 2009 (has links)
A Tese visa a analisar a organização de catadores de resíduos recicláveis, tendo como quadro de referência a teoria institucional. Autores ligados ao movimento da economia solidária propõem a cooperativa popular como modelo de organização capaz de emancipar o trabalhador, ainda que operando em contexto capitalista. Esta tese parte da premissa de que a organização dos catadores em Redes de Economia Solidária não é de fato uma via para sua inclusão social. Para isto, optou-se pela análise da inserção de cooperativas de catadores na indústria de reciclagem da embalagem PET. Desse modo, a pergunta motivadora desta Tese é: como e por que está ocorrendo a inserção dos catadores na cadeia de reciclagem da embalagem PET? Esta problemática foi analisada sob o intrincado ponto de vista dos multistakeholders, considerados como atores específicos que interagem no campo organizacional da indústria de reciclagem. Especialmente, avaliam-se duas experiências cooperativistas organizadas em Redes de Economia Solidária: a Rede Cata Sampa, localizada em São Paulo e a Rede Cata Unidos, localizada em Minas Gerais. Procurou-se comparar a estruturação e formação destas duas redes construídas a partir da Coopamare (SP) e Asmare (MG). Por meio de uma abordagem exploratória de pesquisa descritivo-qualitativa, desenvolveu-se um estudo de caso único com várias unidades de análise (cadeia produtiva, organizações não governamentais, cooperativas de catadores, setor público, e consumidores). Foram utilizadas múltiplas fontes de evidências e triangulação de técnicas qualitativas, tais como, análise documental, entrevistas semi-estruturadas e observação participante. Os resultados mostram que há uma configuração estrutural em que as cooperativas estão integradas a um campo organizacional presidido pela lógica da acumulação a indústria de reciclagem e ficam submetidas a pressões isomórficas. Ao contrário de se enquadrarem na categoria de excluídos, os catadores são trabalhadores úteis e fundamentais para a indústria de reciclagem. Na verdade, tais catadores vivem um processo de exclusão e inclusão social, onde suas vidas são permeadas por zonas de vulnerabilidades, fragilidades e precariedades. Neste sentido, ao considerar o campo da indústria de reciclagem como uma estrutura social, os catadores passam a ser vistos como o grupo desafiante do campo. / The thesis analyzes the organization of collectors men and women, usually homeless people, organized to collect \"useful\" garbage that could be recycled using the institutional theory framework. Authors from the solidarity economics movement, propose popular cooperatives as a model of organization saying that it would be able to emancipate the worker, despite the fact that this workforce operates within the Capitalist system. Therefore, it uses the assumption that the organization of collectors in Solidarity Economy Networks is not in fact a way for their social inclusion. For this thesis, it was decide to analyses the inclusion of cooperatives of collectors in the industry of recycling of PET packaging. Thus the question motivating this thesis is: \"how and why the insertion of the collectors in the PET packaging recycling industry is occurring? This issue was examined under the complex point of view of the multistakeholders, considered as specific actors in the organizational field of the recycling. It especially evaluates two experiences of cooperatives organized in Solidarity Economy Networks: the Rede Cata Sampa, based in Sao Paulo and Rede Cata Unidos, located in Minas Gerais. The researcher sought to compare the structure and formation of Solidarity Economy networks built by Coopamare (SP) and Asmare (MG). Through a descriptive and exploratory qualitative research, a of case study was developed with several units of analysis (supply chain, non-governmental organizations, cooperatives of collectors, public sector, and consumers). Multiple sources of evidence and triangulation of qualitative techniques were used, like documentary analysis, semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The results showed that there is a structural configuration in which the cooperatives are integrated to an organization field chained by the logic of accumulation - the recycling industry - and are subject to isomorphic pressures. However, conversely to the category of excluded group, the collectors of recyclable materials are considered useful and key employees for the recycling industry. In fact, these collectors live a double process of social exclusion and inclusion, in which their lives are permeated by areas of vulnerability, fragility and precariousness. Accordingly, in considering the scope of the recycling industry as a social structure, the collectors can be seen as the challenging group of the field.

No. of bitstreams: 1 RAIMUNDA MARIA RODRIGUES COLARES.pdf: 1552702 bytes, checksum: 1d3ce11bdbe4ad96ed95104e80ec2983 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-05-13 / The accumulation of solid waste, dispersed inappropriately on the planet, has been one of the great problems facing humanity in recent times. The aim of this study was to evaluate the measures adopted by the State of Tocantins, in the cities of Araguaína and Araguatins regarding compliance with the National Solid Waste Policy to social and environmental inclusion of collectors. Therefore, we adopted the methodology of literature research regarding the following subjects: history of solid waste in Brazil and in the world, based in the context of sustainability; exposure of the main legal points established at PNRS and; social inclusion of the collector through the selective collection. We used a field research with a questionnaire applied to the collectors and municipal authorities, which were discussed based on the current literature. It was found that the collectors are mostly illiterate, have month income less than a minimum salary and that the cities do not have formal selective collection. We concluded that cities lean to replace the dumps for controlled landfill sites without the inclusion of waste collectors in formal selective collection. / O acúmulo de resíduos sólidos, dispersos de forma inadequada no planeta, tem sido um dos grandes problemas enfrentados pela humanidade nos últimos tempos. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar as medidas adotadas pelo Estado do Tocantins, nas cidades de Araguaína e Araguatins, quanto ao cumprimento ao disposto na Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos, com a inclusão socioambiental dos catadores. Para tanto, adotou-se a metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica referente aos seguintes temas: histórico dos resíduos sólidos no Brasil e no mundo fundamentado no contexto da sustentabilidade; exposição dos principais contornos jurídicos estabelecidos pela PNRS e a inclusão social do catador por meio da coleta seletiva. Usou-se uma pesquisa de campo com aplicação de questionário junto aos catadores e representantes do poder público municipal, os quais foram discutidos a luz da literatura atual. Foram constatados que os catadores são, em sua maioria analfabetos, tem renda mensal inferior a um salário mínimo e que os municípios não dispõem de coleta seletiva formal. Conclui-se que os municípios tendem a substituir os lixões por aterros controlados sem a inclusão dos catadores na coleta seletiva formal.
