    “Dalyan” kelimesinin kökeni üzerine

    Güzel, Ferdi

    Türkçede farklı kaynaklardan gelen iki dalyan kelimesi vardır. Bazı kaynaklarda bu sesteĢ kelimelerin aynı kelime olduğu savunulmuĢ, bazı çalıĢmalarda ise bu kelimelerin farklı kaynaklardan geldiği belirtilmiĢtir. Etimolojik çalıĢmalarda genellikle farklı anlamlara sahip olan iki dalyan da yabancı bir kökene bağlanmaktadır. “Uzun boylu” anlamına gelen dalyan kelimesi Türkçedir, bu kelime tay isminden benzerlik ifade eden +lAŋ eki ile türetilmiĢtir. Dalyan kelimesi Orta Türkçe taylaŋ kelimesinden gelmektedir. BaĢlangıçta “tay gibi, taya benzeyen, genç” anlamına gelen taylaŋ kelimesi zaman içinde çeĢitli ses değiĢimleri geçirerek dalyan‟a dönüĢmüĢ, “uzun boylu, boylu boslu” anlamlarını da kazanmıĢtır. ÇağdaĢ lehçelerdeki ve Türkiye Türkçesi ağızlarındaki tay kökünden türemiĢ benzer anlamlı kelimeler bu görüĢü desteklemektedir.

    EFFECTS OF AMBIENT CONDITIONS ON PERFORMANCE OF GAS TURBINE COGENERATION CYCLES

    Karaali, Rabi; Öztürk, Ilhan Tekin

    In this paper, effects of the ambient conditions on performance of cogeneration cycles are analyzed by Using exergy analysis method. These cogeneration cycles are the simple cycle, the air preheating cycle, the air-fuel preheating cycle and the inlet air cooling cycle. Also; these cycles are evaluated thermodynamically for different air and fuel mass ratio and the performance of these cycles are compared. The electrical power generation increases about 10-15 % by decreasing the inlet air temperature of the compressor from 25 degrees C to 0 degrees C. However, the thermal power decreases about 10 % with decreasing inlet air temperature. During the summer, the electric power can be easilyincreased 2-7 % by injecting water into the inlet air of the compressor. The exergetic efficiency of cycles is decreased 11-13 %; by decreasing the compressor inlet air pressure from 101.3 kPa to 70.18 kPa. But this change decreases the electric power generation about 25 %. The highest exergy efficiency is obtained for the air-fuel preheated cycle. The simple cycle is the best among the four cycles to obtain high heat rate and heat exergy. The effects of all ambient conditions on these cycles are considered simultaneously, analyzed and compared With each other in this study.

    Active Earth Thrust Theory for Horizontal Granular Backfill on a Cantilever Wall with a Short Heel

    Kamiloglu, Hakan Alper; Sadoglu, Erol

    Cantilever retaining walls are earth-retaining structures commonly used in construction. Conventional methods used to determine the active earth thrust acting on a wall often neglect friction between the soil and wall. This study presents an analytical solution for determining the active earth thrusts acting on a cantilever retaining wall with a short heel and a shear key that supports granular backfill. Three different earth thrusts were considered to be acting on three different parts of the rear face of the wall; the thrusts were derived using the limit equilibrium method. The active earth thrust formulas were also simplified in terms of earth thrust coefficients, unit weight, and wall height. An algorithm was developed to obtain earth thrust coefficients depending on various wall dimensions and internal friction angles and to prepare graphs representing earth thrust coefficients and failure surface angles. The effects of wall dimensions and internal friction angles on the earth thrusts and failure surface angles were determined. Finally, the proposed method of determining earth thrust coefficients was compared with other approaches.

    Optimization of Pectin Extraction from Orange Pulp and Characterization of Compositional and Steady Shear Properties

    Yilmaz, Mustafa Tahsin; Muslu, Asli; Karasu, Salih; Bozkurt, Fatih; Dertli, Enes

    Pectin, which is one of the most important wastes of fruit juice industry, was extracted from orange pulp at optimum conditions (pH, time and temperature) and modified using pectinase. The effect of modification on the structural properties of pectin was monitored using Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analyses. The bands at 1600-1800 cm(-1) which indicate the specific region and quality of pectin were detected using FTIR while galacturonic acid content was determined using HPLC. The results showed that the galacturonic acid content of pectin from orange pulp was determined to be 406.44 mg/g powder pectin while that of the modified pectin from the orange pulp was determined to be 465,34 mg/g powder pectin. In addition, flow properties of the pectin samples were determined using rheological analysis. The viscosity and viscoelastic properties of the modified pectin samples were revealed to be different from those of non-modified pectin samples. The consistency index values of unmodified and modified pectin samples were determined to be 0.0559 Pa.s(n) and 0.0046 Pa.s(n), respectively.

    Macit, Emine; Çaglar, Abdullah; Bakirci, Ihsan

    In present study, some physical, chemical, sensory and microbiological characteristics of ice cream samples produced by using 4 different essential oils (Coconut, lemon bark, clove and cinnamon) in 2 different levels (0.2% and 0.4%) were investigated. The findings indicated that although the addition of essential oil was not significantly effective on the physical and chemical properties of ice cream samples (P>0.05), the melting rates increased during storage. The sample with 0.2% coconut essential oil was the most favorite sample in sensory evaluations, while the sample with 0.4% clove essential oil was the least favorite sample. In general, samples with 0.2% essential oil were more appreciated than samples with 0.4%. It has been determined that ice cream samples conformed to TS 4265 Ice Cream Standard (Turkish Standard) in terms of microbiological properties. With this study, it was determined that some essential oils can be used as a natural aroma substance in the production of ice cream.

    The effect of extreme sports on oxidative stress

    Aggon, Eser; Agirbas, Ozturk; Ucan, Izzet; Hackney, Anthony C.

    Background & Study Aim: Despite the high risk of extreme sports, participation rates have increased in the last years. Rafting and paragliding are two of the most popular extreme sports. The aim of this study was the effect of rafting and paragliding exercises in males on oxidative stress situation and antioxidant status. Material & Methods: Seventeen male rafters and ten male paragliders voluntarily participated in the study. The inclusion criteria were: non-smoker, no known history of cardiovascular disease, body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m2, and no intake of medications or antioxidant supplements. Blood samples were taken at rafting and paragliding practices' a day before and after the sporting activities. The data were statistically analysed with Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results: Rafting activity increased the values of the total antioxidant situation (TAS), paragliding exercises decreased the level of TAS while paragliding increased the level of total oxidative stress (TOS). Differences existed between the group only before activities in TAS values. Conclusions: The specific property of the rafting workout is to stimulate of participants to cope with oxidative stress by activating the antioxidant status. In turn paragliding exercises increase oxidative stress due to the danger element in the sport and perhaps requiring the participants stay at a high altitude, in some situations, during its practice.

    Enhanced Pinning Properties of Laser-Irradiated Bulk MgB2 Superconductors

    Erdem, O.; Yanmaz, E.

    In order to investigate the effect of laser irradiation on the superconducting properties of MgB2, a pellet-shaped sample was produced and cut into two pieces. The dot-shaped molten patterns, with the distance of 100 µm between them, were formed on the surface of one of the pieces by using an Nd:YVO4 laser. The grains of the irradiated sample were significantly grown due to the laser-induced sintering. The modified surface appeared to have dense and compacted grains as a result of increasing interconnectivity among the superconducting grains. The critical current densities at 5 K in a field of 3 T were found to be 5.38 × 104 and 8.96 × 104 A cm−2 for the reference and the irradiated samples, respectively. The increment of critical current density for the irradiated sample is presumably connected with the changing of pinning mechanism after the laser irradiation. For the irradiated sample which showed a higher value of critical current density at 5 K under high fields, Δκ pinning was obtained as a dominant pinning mechanism, while the normal point pinning was dominant for the reference one. These results point out that the superconducting properties of bulk MgB2 can be changed and improved via laser irradiation in a short time.

These methods are preheating air, preheating air and fuel, inlet air cooling by using evaporative cooling and absorption cooling. These cogeneration systems are evaluated with respect to energy efficiency (energy utilization factor), exergetic efficiency, electric and heat power, electric-heat energy rate, artificial thermal efficiency and fuel energy saving ratio and are compared with each other. In these analyses, the thermodynamic parameters such as compressing ratio, air and fuel mass ratio and compressor inlet temperatures of the cycles are used. It is concluded that these parameters can be listed from most effective to least effective as air fuel ratio, pressure ratio and compressor inlet temperature. It is also concluded that the most efficient cycle is found to be the air-fuel preheated cycle for obtaining more electric power and less heat power, and the simple cycle is the most suitable one for obtaining more heat power and less electric power.

    Possibility-induced simplified neutrosophic aggregation operators and their application to multi-criteria group decision-making

    Şahin, Rıdvan; Liu, Peide

    Simplified neutrosophic set (SNS) is an appropriate tool used to express the incompleteness, indeterminacy and uncertainty of the evaluation objects in decision-making process. In this study, we define the concept of possibility SNS including two types of information such as the neutrosophic performance provided from the evaluation objects and its possibility degree using a value ranging from zero to one. Then by extending the existing neutrosophic information, aggregation models for SNSs that cannot be used effectively to fusion the two different information described above, we propose two novel neutrosophic aggregation operators considering possibility, which are named as a possibility-induced simplified neutrosophic weighted arithmetic averaging operator and possibility-induced simplified neutrosophic weighted geometric averaging operator, and discuss their properties. Moreover, we develop a useful method based on the proposed aggregation operators for solving a multi-criteria group decision-making problem with the possibility simplified neutrosophic information, in which the weights of decision-makers and decision criteria are calculated based on entropy measure. Finally, a practical example is utilised to show the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed method.

    Functional and Film-forming Properties of Mechanically Deboned Chicken Meat Proteins

    Saricaoglu, Furkan Turker; Turhan, Sadettin

    In the present study, the functional properties of mechanically deboned chicken meat proteins (MDCM-Ps) were determined at different pH (2, 4, 6, 8 and 12), and film-forming properties were evaluated depending on MDCM-P (2, 3 and 4%) and glycerol (30, 40 and 50%) concentrations. The highest solubility, emulsifying and foaming properties were determined at pH 12. MDCM-P solutions showed non-polyelectrolyte behavior and gelation onset temperature was determined at 36°C. Film-forming properties of MDCM-P showed that the tensile strength decreased, and elongation at break increased as glycerol concentration increased. Films became more transparent with increasing glycerol and decreasing protein concentration, while water vapor permeability increased with increasing glycerol and protein concentration. Water sorption data of films were fitted to the Guggenheim, Anderson, and De Boer model. In general, equilibrium moisture content of films increased as glycerol level increased. Overall, the results showed that MDCM-P could be useful as a new protein source for both food and packaging industries.

    L-shell differential cross-section and alignment of uranium at 59.54-keV photon energy

    Akkuş, Tuba; Alım, Bünyamin; Yılmaz, Demet; Şahin, Yusuf

    L X-ray differential cross-sections of uranium were calculated at several polar scattering angles (85°, 95°, 105°, 115°, 125°, and 135°) at 59.54-keV photon energy by using a Si(Li) detector. We observed that Ll and Lα X-rays were dependent on the polar scattering angle, whereas Lβ and Lγ X-rays were independent of the polar scattering angle. Therefore, the anisotropy parameters for Ll and Lα X-rays were obtained using the intensity ratios of Ll to Lγ X-rays and of Lα to Lγ X-rays to reduce some systematic errors.
