Engineering and science-related problems become more complicated as human knowledge evolves. This complication includes apparatus geometry and operational environment such as extreme variations in pressure and temperature. Analytical solution for such problems needs many assumptions that underestimate the problem under study and could lead to unrealistic results. Moreover, an experimental setup for a certain problem is constrained by the prototype size and each experiment is set up for certain operating conditions. This leads to building up many setups to deal with changes in size and operating conditions and, therefore, the prototype validation becomes very expensive and time-consuming. This calls for modeling and simulation approaches to deal with such engineering problems with the powerful computational capabilities available nowadays. Real-world patterns and processes are roughly modeled by scientific models. They may be refuted because they are representations, which are by definition imperfect. Models, however, are quite helpful for a variety of reasons. They first give us a method to comprehend procedures that would otherwise be incomprehensible to us. They also give scientists a base on which to build new research and theories. Finally, modeling and simulation reduce the time and cost of prototyping.

Many particle accelerators rely on maintaining low pressures to ensure efficient operation, minimize beam losses, and reduce radiation background. To ensure a beam lifetime of 1-20 hours for the Synchrotron-light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East (SESAME) vacuum system, an ideal average dynamic pressure of 1×10 -9 mbar was targeted. This pressure was intended to be maintained while running the accelerator at a current of 400 mA after a cumulative dose of 100 Ah. In this study, a MATLAB code was employed to develop a series of one-dimensional equations that simulate the behavior of the vacuum system within the SESAME storage ring. The proposed model was then compared with the results generated by the VACCALC software and the Particle Monte Carlo (TPMC) MOLFLOW code, establishing a comprehensive assessment framework. The collected data from the model was subsequently compared with the recorded static and dynamic pressure measurements obtained during more than 1000 Ah of beam conditioning at 2.5 GeV. In results, the projected and actual values of dynamic pressures exhibited a satisfactory degree of agreement across the investigated range of beam conditioning doses, with a consistency factor exceeding 2 after a 100 Ah dose.

In areas with unreliable electricity, the absorption system serves as a crucial, eco-friendly refrigeration technology. This study addresses the system's performance gaps, evaluating the 100 W NH3-H2O absorption cooling system under various conditions. The focus is on its suitability for electricity-challenged areas, employing theoretical and experimental methods. Two configurations are tested based on input heat sources, using bifacial Photovoltaic (PV) or solar parabolic troughs integrated with the absorption chiller. The Engineering Equation Solver (EES) program determines thermodynamic properties, with the model split into sections-one with the solution heat exchanger (SHX) excluding the liquid-vapor heat exchanger (LVHX) and the other incorporating both. The findings indicate a direct correlation between higher evaporator and generator temperatures and an increase in the Coefficient of Performance (COP). The theoretical and experimental cooling COP values reach 0.62 and 0.63, respectively, at 7℃ evaporator temperature and 85℃ generator temperature. Similarly, at 95℃ generator temperature, the COP values are 0.629 and 0.637 for the same evaporator temperature. The theoretical maximum COP at 3℃ evaporator temperature is 0.512 at 90°C generator temperature, with experimental COP approaching 0.52 at generator temperatures of 96℃, 98℃, and 100℃. The integration of an LVHX into the chiller module demonstrates a notable improvement in cycle performance, enhancing efficiency by approximately 7-7.5%. In conclusion, this study offers crucial insights into optimizing the NH3-H2O absorption cooling system for off-grid scenarios, contributing to a broader understanding of absorption refrigeration technology in diverse environmental conditions.
