Abstract:
SUMMARYTwo extensions to the Land Equivalent Ratio (LER) concept, the Effective LER and the Staple LER, are evaluated for an intercrop of two species. The use of different standardizing sole-crop yields in the Effective LER equation is emphasized for the formation of different comparisons between intercrop and sole-crop yields. The Staple LER for different standardizing sole-crop yields is introduced. The equivalence of the Staple and Effective LERs under certain conditions is shown and illustrated.

Abstract:
This study evaluated the competitive dynamics and yield performance of soybean-based intercropping systems on dryland Inceptisols. Conducted in Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, from March to August 2020, the research compared four intercropping systems: upland rice-soybean, maize-soybean, maize-peanut, and maize-upland rice, against their respective monocultures. A randomized complete block design with five replicates was employed. Analysis to assess agronomic performance includes Land Equivalent Ratio (LER), Aggressivity (A), Competitive Ratio (CR), Relative Crowding Coefficient (K), and Actual Yield Loss (AYL). Results clearly demonstrated that maize-soybean intercropping was the most advantageous system for Inceptisols. While maize exhibited greater competitive dominance over soybean, as evidenced by Land Equivalent Ratio (LER) of 1.91, Actual Yield Loss (AYL) of 1.07, Aggressivity (A), and Competitive Ratio (CR), the intercropping system significantly enhanced overall productivity. Notably, maize-soybean intercropping achieved the highest yields. This study highlights the superior competitiveness and productivity of soybean when intercropped with maize on dryland Inceptisols, providing valuable insights for optimizing agricultural practices in these challenging environments.

Abstract:
Generation of renewable energy has currently gained more importance around the world than ever before. In India, Photovoltaic (PV) based electricity shares a major portion of total renewable energy generation. This technology harnesses the power of the sun to produce clean and renewable energy, offering a pathway towards a greener and more sustainable future. The potential of photovoltaic-based electricity generation lies in its versatility and accessibility. The installation of PV systems on open areas is the lowest cost option, are also installing on the agricultural land. This can result in a land-use conflict between energy and food production, and can be of major concern especially in regions with limited crop land area or having dense population. Since both food and energy are required for human population, the agri-voltaic (AV) systems can be seen as a way of combining PV and food production on the same land area at the same time. Since, different parameters such as shading effect of PV panels on microclimate and morphological characteristics of the plant, land equivalent ratio (LER) and levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) production are important for design of AV system. This chapter aims to give an insight about the design parameters and numerous benefits of AV system over tradition PV based electricity generation technique.

Abstract:
Faba bean is an important pulse crop in terms of protein source, area coverage, and volume of annual production in Ethiopia. The aim of this paper is to assess the agronomic and crop physiology investigations in the past two decades in Ethiopia. The production limiting factors of this crop are low input usage, natural disasters, depletion of macronutrients, and unavailability of essential nutrients. Phosphorus is among the main limiting nutrients in soil systems in Ethiopia. Seed yield and biomass yield of faba bean were increased from 1338 to 1974 kg/ha and from 3124 to 4446 kg/ha when phosphorous was changed from 0 to 52 kg/ha, respectively at Holeta whereas application of 40 kg P ha − 1 resulted in higher grain yield (6323 kg ha−1) and 3303 kg ha−1 at Lemu-Bilbilo and Bore highlands, respectively. The highest grain yield of 32 kg ha−1 was obtained from the application of 92 kg P2O5 ha−1 at Sekela district while application of 46 kg P2O5 ha−1 resulted in a substantial increase in seed yield over unfertilized plots on vertisols of Ambo. On the other hand, the results suggest that using starter nitrogen from 0 to 27 kg/ha has marginally increased faba bean yield but, a farther increase of nitrogen has indicated deteriorate of yield at Arsi zone. Proper plant populations play a crucial role in enhancing faba bean production. Planting faba bean at 30 cm × 15 cm spacing gave the highest grain yield in Duna district while it was 30 × 7.5 cm at vertisols of Ambo University research farm. Significantly higher seed yield (4222 kg/ha) was observed in the 40 cm inter-row spacing as compared to 50 cm inter-row spacing, which gave the lowest seed yield per hectare (3138 kg/ha) on fluvisols of Haramaya University. Intercropping and crop rotation are cropping systems that can increase soil fertility and crop yield. Intercropping of faba bean with barley at Debre Birhan increased land equivalent ratio than both crops when planted as sole. An additional income of 18.5% and 40% was gained than planting sole faba bean and wheat, respectively at Kulumsa. Faba bean can fix about 69 kg/ha nitrogen in Northern Ethiopia. Generally, the current review results showed that only limited studies in organic and bio fertilizer, plant density, and cropping systems were done on faba bean in Ethiopia. Hence, studies regarding soil acidity, organic fertilizer, and secondary plus micronutrient impacts on faba bean production and productivity along soil types and weather conditions need great attention in the future in Ethiopia.

Lean-Blowout (LBO) is a phenomenon that occurs in both land-based premixed and propulsion liquid-fuelled gas turbine engines when the effective equivalence ratio is reduced close to the lean flammability limit.

Prediction of pollutant emission (e.g., CO) and combustion dynamics near LBO is very complicated since physics at many interacting scales have to be resolved.

The CFD results are divided into reactors using various filters on flow-field variables to construct an ERN that represents the 3-D combustor flow field and flame structure. Detailed kinetics can then

Abstract:
In order to reduce NOx emissions for the 20kW class microturbine under development, the low NOx characteristics were investigated as an application of the lean burn premixed combustion technology. This study was performed under the conditions of high temperature and high pressure. The compressed air of 2.5bar, 3.0bar, and 5.0bar with temperature of 560K was supplied to the combustor through the preheater. The exhaust air was sampled and measured at the immediate exit of the combustor. It is found that NOx increased while CO decreased as increasing inlet air temperature and pressure. NOx decrea
