The objective of this research is to study the development of eco cars using power-cutting mechanism technique of Transmission System. Two eco cars had been studied. The first car was conducted with the aim of developing transmission system and clutch system by changing from gear drive transmission system and chain drive mechanical clutch to belt and pulley transmission system by new designing the belt and pulley transmission system to have propeller shaft as the device to transmit power from the right to the left side with bearings to help reduce friction. Pulley system and clutch lever were installed in which the newly built clutch can be controlled by driver. The new model of transmission system is weight 0.7 kg which is lighter than the previous weight of 0.8 kg. Based on the first testing by participating in the 22nd Honda Eco Mileage Challenge at Chang International Circuit it was found that the system with belt tension at 1 kN resulted in good performance of transmission system and clutch system with fuel efficiency value at 626.157 km/L. After that the belt tension was adjusted and set up at 1.1 kN for 3 tests at Solar Track Thailand and it was found that the maximum fuel efficiency value was 1061.18 km/L at the speed of 34 km/hr. The second car was improved in transmission system suspension system steering system and also engine. The first trial was experimented on the 22nd racing event at the Chang International Circuit where this fuel efficient prototype car could run at 18 km. The result showed that it could have good mileage which was 275 km/L. After improvement the car was tested again for three times at the Solar Track Thailand circuit where it ran at 16 kilometers. The result revealed that the best saving was equivalent to 613 km/L at the speed of 30.6 km/hr.

Drying an agricultural product with hot air (HA) method causes a long drying time and results in high specific drying energy consumption (SEC). The dried product has high shrinkage percentage and low rehydration. Therefore this research aims to develop dried shiitake mushroom using belt-conveyor combined microwave-hot air drying method (MHB). The shiitake mushroom was dried by MHB at microwave power of 300 W 400 W 500 W and 600 W and air temperature of 65 oC with air velocity of 0.3 m/s and recycled air of 80% and by the HA drying method at air temperature of 65 oC. The samples were dried until their final moisture content less than 11.1% dry basis. The drying kinetics SEC of drying process and quality of dried shiitake mushroom were evaluated. The quality of dried product was considered in terms of color shrinkage rehydration texture water activity and microstructure. The results showed that the shiitake mushroom drying using MHB gave higher drying rate than that of HA drying method leading to short drying time and resulting in low SEC. The drying rate of un-blanched shiitake mushroom was higher than that of blanched shiitake mushroom. Dried shiitake mushroom from MHB drying gave lower values in shrinkage percentages and hardness but higher rehydration and larger pore size than that dried by HA drying. However the color values (L* +a* and +b*) of dried shiitake mushroom in all cases were not significantly different. Meanwhile dried shiitake mushroom from un-blanched case gave lower values in shrinkage percentage and hardness but higher values in all colors and rehydration and larger pore size than those of blanched case.

Ethanol is a form of renewable energy. That can be used as fuel. Can replace gasoline or diesel. Fuel is an important factor driving the countrys economy. Ethanol can be produced from agricultural products garbage and various waste. his research uses watermelon rind. Which is waste from the community as a raw material for the production of ethanol by the fermentation process the microorganisms used in the fermentation process are ball flour. After fermentation for 6 hours it was found that the watermelon rind weighing 10 grams measured the concentration of alcohol. The concentration was 9.3 % VOL 18 Brix %. 20 grams of watermelon rind measuring the concentration of alcohol The concentration of 8.1 % VOL 16 Brix % of watermelon rind at 30 grams measured the concentration of alcohol. Get the concentration 8 % VOL 16 Brix % watermelon rind at 40 grams measure the concentration of alcohol get the concentration of 7.9 % VOL 15.1 Brix % and watermelon rind at 50 grams measure the concentration of alcohol the concentration of 7 % VOL 15 Brix %. Therefore it can be said that the watermelon rind which is waste from the community. Is a raw material with high potential for ethanol production to be used as a renewable energy source Instead of using raw materials from food plants and other energy crops.

The study aimed to investigate the suitable formula of high energy nutrient jelly to obtain the most acceptable formula by investigated 3 formulas with different flavors: vanilla cocoa and coffee with the Randomized Randomized - Complete Block Design (RCBD). The sensory quality then was evaluated for visual appearance color odor taste texture and overall preference by rating the 9 - Point Hedonic Scale by 80 participants who were teachers and students Program in Food and Nutrition Faculty of Home Economics Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. The variance was analyzed by the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and the difference of Mean was analyzed by the Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The data was analyzed by computer program. Based on 3 formulas of high energy nutrient jelly it was found that cocoa had the highest preference score with the preference score for visual appearance color odor taste texture and overall preference of 7.55 7.57 7.87 7.52 7.25 and 7.45 respectively which were considered as be in the medium level. The analysis of variance and comparison of statistical differences were found that for the taste was not statistically significant difference in three formulas. For the visual appearance color odor texture and overall preference were statistically significant different at 95% confidence level. From studying the nutritional value of high energy jelly nutrition. Found that high energy nutrition jelly at 100 grams. Providing complete energy and nutrients With 96.74 kilo calories of energy. Provide nutrients 4.97 grams of protein 13.05 grams of carbohydrates and 2.74 grams of fat per 100 grams of consumption which affects health. Health can be used as a supplement or substitute in patients with malnutrition or elderly people who suffer from anorexia to get enough energy and nutrients to meet the needs of the body

This research is to study in heat transfer of hot water tank from an air conditioner which is a cylinder type and has a hot water pipe around the tank. It is used for finding a position and a pattern of distribution of the hot water pipe around the tank in the highest heat transfer condition. The study uses the cylinder of hot water tank filled 45 liters of 25 oC water. An experiment separates in 3 positions of pipe wrapping which are the bottom the center and the top of the tank. Then 80 oC of hot water run thought the hot water pipe which is wrapped around the tank for 120 minutes. The result of the experiment shows that tubing position that causes the highest heat transfer is at the bottom of tank. Pipe wrapping at the bottom of the tank has the heat transfer higher than the top of the tank at 30%. Furthermore this experiment studies in spacing of hot water pipe. There are 3 types for testing which are spacing hot water pipe as one time two times and three times of diameter of pipe. The result illustrates that spacing the hot water pipe can significantly increase the heat transfer. The heat transfer of spacing the hot water pipe in three times of diameter of pipe is higher 5.8 % than spacing in one times. In addition this research is to study in the effect of turbulent flow on the heat transfer by installing agitator in order to stir water in the tank. The result is that water stirring in the tank for increasing the heat transfer is not effective for investment because the energy using for stirring is higher than the enhanced heat transfer
