The objectives of this research were to study the effect of hot air velocity on the changes of the moisture content and temperature of preserved tomatoes undergoing combined conveyor system and hot air drying. Specific energy consumption physical properties in term of color and shrinkage and sensory evaluation of dried preserved tomatoes were also investigated. The preserved cherry tomatoes were dried at a drying temperature of 80oc and hot air velocity of 2 and 4 m/s until the moisture contents of the preserved tomatoes were lower than 18% wet basis. The experimental results showed that the hot air velocity had effect on the changes of the moisture content and temperature of preserved tomatoes. Specific energy consumption total color difference shrinkage percentage and sensory evaluation results of dried preserved tomatoes of the hot air velocity of 2 and 4 m/s were not significantly different (P>0.05).Moreover the dried preserved tomatoes obtained from this research had significantly lower sensory scores in term of color and appearance than those obtained from the local market (P≤0.05). However sensory scores in term of flavor texture and overall preference of the dried preserved tomatoes obtained from this research and the local market were not significantly different (P>0.05).

Properties of pumice aggregate mortar blended with para rubber wood fly ash (PRWFA) replaced type 1 ordinary Portland cement (OPC) in different proportions of 020 and 40 wt.% OPC and dosed with used engine oil (UEO) in proportions of 00.2 and 0.3 wt% water were investigated. Whole mix type specimens size was cast in 555 cm and curing in ambient temperature for 7 and 28 days. Testing series of physico-mechanical properties performed on bulk density water absorption electrical resistivity Shore hardness and compressive strength were determined. Moreover microstructure via scanning electron microscope was analyzed. Effect of curing ages enhanced properties of samples such as electrical resistivity Shore hardness and compressive strength. Particularly the 28-day specimen that contained 20wt.% PRWFA and 0.2wt.% UEO provided bulk density of 1.61 g/cm3 and highest compressive strength of 22.09 MPa.

Due to the systems of mechanical vapor compression have a high energy consumption for air-conditioned space. Therefore the system of evaporative cooling presents as a promising alternative option for the air-conditioning system. Moreover the pre-cooling system is normally used to reduce an intake ambient air temperature before the air-conditioning system. As mentioned above this research aims to investigate the effectiveness of evaporative cooling system by using a car radiator for air per-cooling. In this research the commercial car radiator was used for cooling inlet ambient air by cooling water. The evaporative cooling system consisted of evaporative cooling panel with a maximum water rate of 40 lite/minute and a maximum air rate of 5100 m3/hr. The results show that most suitable water flow rate of radiator is 10 lite/minute and this radiator can make the differences of air temperature of about 8.9oC. Moreover the results also show that the effectiveness of evaporative cooling system could reach about 73.31% with a maximum sensible heat of 8.43 kW.

At the present the studies on the Mahachanok jam product is limited. The objective of this research was to study in the textural syneresis and sensory characteristics of Mahachanok jam from three types of geldings (pectin galactomannan and carrageenan) and different storage conditions (room temperature 4o C) for 1 month. It was found that the gel strength rupture strength and brittleness of the Mahachanok jam from carrageenan and galactomannan were higher than pectin (p≤0.05). When the jam was stored at 4oC jam from pectin had highest brittleness and jam from galactomannan had syneresis more than carrageenan and pectin (p≤0.05) respectively. The jam was stored at 4o C found that the syneresis was lower than stored at room temperature. For sensory evaluation the overall acceptance of Mahachanok jam from pectin and carrageenan were higher than galactomannan with the mean of like score between slight to moderate.

This study was aimed to investigate the management process (POSDCoRB) that influenced the effectiveness of the organization consisting of work satisfaction and work quality accomplished at the scheduled time as well as the adaptability of the residential construction business in Bangkok Metropolitan. SMEs companies were selected according to registered capital from 1 million to 5 million baht only the companies with the profitability and unexceed total revenue of 30 million baht in 2016. 160 samples were used to respond to the questionnaire. Descriptive statistics Pearsons Product Moment Correlation Inferential statistics analysis stepwise multiple regression analysis were applied in the data analysis. It was found as follows. 1) The level of the management process of the residential construction business in Bangkok was high as well as planning and budgeting. However the process of people allocation organization direction coordination and reporting were relatively moderate. 2) Respondents in the residential construction business highly agreed upon the effectiveness of the organization work quality scheduled time achievement while the effectiveness of the organization in terms of satisfaction the organization adaptability were moderate. 3) The management processes had the highest correspondence with the effectiveness of the organization in terms of the coordination and adaptability of the organization followed by the budget which was related to the quality of the work. Finally 4) the management process concerning the coordination budget and organization management influenced the organization effectiveness of the residential construction business in Bangkok at the statistical significance of 0.01.
