TERMINAL REPORT

I. INTRODUCTION

Pro,ject Background

1. To assure wellqalified teachers at the postgraduate level and to maintain the quality of research, the law in the Arab Republic of Egypt (A.R.E) requires university professors to have postgraduate degrees. However, due to lack of research facilities in the universities, it has in the past been difficult to obtain such a degree, with the result that the number of qualified teachers was limited and the ratio of students to teachers was inordinately high. To overcome this, the Government provided a large number of' fellowships to train graduates abroad. Yet, apart from the heavy drain on the country's hard currency reserve, this programme was not totally satisfactory. Consequently, the Government decided to upgrade both university research facilities and the postgraduate programme.

2. committed it self, the Government decided that every technical training institution in the country should support this effort. It also decided that the postgraduate programme at the Ehgineering Faculty of Cairo University should be oriented towards the solution of industrial problems. Co-operation between universities and industries had previously been unsuccessful €or two reasons. One was that the A.R.E*s major industries worked under licence agreements with foreign parent firms and thus these was little chance they would perform industrial research locally. The Government wanted these industries to be independent after these agreemen% expired and wanted the country to be prepared to tackle its own industrial problems in order to increase industrial production. The other reason for poor industry/university co-operat ion was the universities' lack of qualified teachers, researchers and modern facilities.

Keeping in mind the vast industrialization to which the A.R.E. has

30 A request for Technical Assistance was, therefore, submitted to UNDP in 1973, to overcome these bottlenecks. The project document for Phase I, "Centre for Advancement of Postgraduate Studies in Ehgineering Sciences, Cairo University", was drawn up and signed by UNDP and the Government on 23 September 1974 and by Unesco, as Executing Agency, on 25 November 1974. equipment, study tour programmes and experts. The Government was to provide L.E. 872,140 in kind, in the form of space for the project, national faculty and staff and L.E. 52,000, in cash, for the renovation work and remuneration of those who would participate in the project. Activities began in October 1975 with the appointment of the Chief Technical Adviser, an expert in heat transfer and national professors in heat transfer, combustion, fluid mechanics and solid mechanics. The gzoject was to be an autanomoua .body under the supervision of Cairo University's Vice-President for postgraduate studies and research. The objectives were to upgrade the postgraduate programme, orient the research towards industrial or practical problems and institutionalize the relations with industry.

60 During Phase I1 consolidation of the central research facilities took place with more modern equipment to cater for postgraduate work and industrial consulting. More industrially-oriented research projects were begun as master and doctoral degree theses, Well-planned short courses were offered to engineers from industry. Some of the contracted industrial research projects were completed and more contracted research projects were started, During an evaluation meeting in this period, it was observed that the unit system of operation did not help to attract more industrial projects, while much time was consumed in completing contracts due to industry's administrative procedures. To overcome these diffi- culties, administrative changes were made in the operation of the Centre and the

Centre started obtaining consulting projects from other funding agencies such as the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology and US AID, to establish good contacts with local industries through short courses and contracted consulting projects. As a result of these two principal activities, the Centre is now able to continue its activities without any external support,

A, INDUSTRIAL PROBLEMS

Several industries in and around Cero were visited by the Director and 11, his colleagues, the experts and consultants to survey the problems facing industry. Five problems were identified and contracts were signed between the Centre and the industries concerned to solve these problems. tants were also involved in solving industrial problems financed by other agencies such as the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology and US AID. foll.owing is a brief description of these industrial problem.

The wasted fuel represented on a national basis some 50 million pounds per year (in the opinion of the consultant who visited the project and some of the industries). To solve this problem, continual visits were made to power stations in and around Cairo to suggest methods to improve boiler efficiency and output by properly adjusting the air-fuel ratio. The procedure was first to stop any air leakage in the boiler body by a process of gas analysis so that all the air would be involved in burning fuel. When the air-fuel ratio was properly adjusted, the efficiency of the boiler was increased to its design value. increased the boiler's efficiency by 3077. The Dew Point Meter was used for exact adjustment of the air-fuel ratio, The effects of various additives to fuel were studied in special test rigs installed in the Continuous Combustion Laboratory so that ill-effects of sulphur present in local fuels could be minimized.

This process

13 As a result of this contracted research, both the output and the efficiency of one of the four Cairo power stations, Cairo South, were raised. The immediate outcome was that the Ministry of Electricity and Energy decided not to buy gas turbine generating units costing 30 million pounds, because they were no longer needed to meet the power demand,

Testing facilities for diesel engines (contracted with the Diesel Engine Factory, Helwan)

'k 15. Wear in the cylinder liners of railway diesel engines was reported to be double that in the same engine types operating outside Egypt. A special tool was designed to measure the wear in the cylinder liners at different sections. About 120 cylinders were examined to define the wear area, Samples were prepared and examined under the microscope to differentiate between mechanical wear and corrosion wear. carbon residue and ash content. The effects of var-ious additives to fuel were

studied to miriimize corrosion wear. The filtering system was examined to minimize mechanical wear. All these findings helped to increase the life of diesel engines in railways.

Modification of diesel engine (contracted for Factory No . 909, ' Helwan) 16. Locally-produced diesel engines, with two flywheels, had problems concerning the governing system, lubrication and ribrations and thus could not compete with imported modern engines on the market. Some parts of this engine were redesigned and modified to minimize the above defects. The main modifica- tion was to have a single flywheel to save material and improve balancing. Vibration tests showed improvement in the new design and the factory agreed to produce this modified engine.

Minimization of wear in two-phase phosphate pumps (contracted with The Phosphate Company, Hamrawen)

17. The Phosphate Company uses centrifugal pumps for transferring phosphate between sections. High phosphate-to-water ratios, high pressure ratios and salt water are used. The pumps were experiencing severe wear under these difficult operating conditions, which increased maintenance costs and decreased productiv- ity. To minimize pump wear and consequently maintenance costs, a new screen system was designed using the cyclone principle to separate phosphate, which flows downward, while the water flows upward to the suction side of the pump. pressurized water will flow through the ejector, creating negative pressure to suck up the separated phosphate again. instruments and is undergoing tests of its effectiveness before its use is recommended to the factory.

In order to save material, stress analysis of various members in the side-frame and bottom-frames is to be carried out by the finite element method, using very accurate values for the section properties of these members. The number of sections of members that are exposed only to light stress can be reduced tu save material. The members of the side-frames have been classified according to the cross-sections. Very accurate formulae have been derived for their section properties, and computer programmes have been developed to calculate these properties. With the help of a mini-computes present in the Centre, all values of section properties have been calculated and tabulated to be used as data for finite element analysis. To develop facilities to test the coach, a list of major equipment needed has been prepared and enquiries have been sent to potential suppliers.

Reduction of noise in window-type air-conditioners (financed by the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology to Koldair Co., Giza)

19. To minimize noise levels in the window-type air-conditioners produced by Koldair Co., vibration tests were conducted on various parts of the unit. It was observed that the support systems of the fan motor and compressor units caused additional vibrations. additional stiffners, vibration tests showed a remarkable reduction, which in turn reduced noise levels. Tests on noise caused by fluid flow, in the piping system and by the air-conditioner supports are under way,

Forty-two study tour programmes were arranged to allow Faculty members participating in Centre activities to visit research institutions and industries in Europe and the United States. days to two months. These visits were very useful for Faculty members in helping them to improve postgraduate programmes, supervise and guide industrially- oriented postgraduate research theses and work on industrial consulting projects. They were also helpful in establishing contacts between the Centre axd organiza- tions abroad, for example, firms such as Bechtel, General Electric, General Motors, Sulzer and Steinmuller, and research laboratories such as Oak Ridge and JUlich Nuclear Laboratories, During these study tours, senior Faculty members also interviewed scientists who could visit the Centre as consultants to help in specific ways. design of coal power stations and coal slurry pipelines in the Sinai, and in establishing a coal research centre in Egypt,

22. With the provision of modern laboratories and the visits of experts and consultants, the postgraduate programme has been upgraded, postgraduate research theses have a greater orientation towards industrial applications, and staff members need not go abroad to obtain postgraduate degrees. Postgraduate students are now better suited to industrial work and university faculty positions in the A,R.E. and other Arab countries, The intensive short courses have increased the knowledge of engineers from industry and trained them for better service.

VI. RECOMMENDATIONS

25 The staff of the Centre, being university faculty members, work at the Centre only part-time. Additional contracts with industry could have been signed had some staff members been full-time Centre employees. The Centre therefore should have a core of permanent full-time staff, for example,the Director, Deputy Directors and General Secretary.

26 . The Centre has potential for growth and can be of great help to industry in research and training. Because some measures of autonomy compatible with the expected growth in size and output may be necessary, it is recommended that the Centre become an autonomous body.

27 * Intensive short courses must be designed and selected to satisfy the needs of industry. Thus, each course should be evaluated by a small committee with the help of data collected from participants from the industry involved.

28 maintenance and use of the new equipment installed in the various laboratories.

29 A system should be established in the Centre to ensure regular visits to industries to survey problems and initiate research and development projects to solve them by means of contracts.
