Study of the behavior of a single-seater vehicle with the use of hydrogen as supplementary fuel

Introduction: The progressive scarcity of fossil fuels because of his high demand worldwide, in addition to generate the highest concentration of polluting gases that cause climate change and affect the health of human beings. Objective: the objective of this research is to analyze the feasibility of implementing a gaseous hydrogen generator as additional fuel in an internal combustion engine of a single-seater vehicle to demonstrate if there is an improvement in engine performance, fuel consumption and reduction of polluting gas emissions. Methodology: The methodology of this research is to perform an experimental campaign for the execution of functional tests on the three points to prove. Results: As a result of the implementation, in the first test there is a reduction of 1.6 HP of power and 3.01 Nm of torque, however, the second test about fuel consumption shows a saving of 14.13%, and in the last test describes the concentration of exhaust gases, similarly under dynamic conditions an average reduction is obtained of 0.73% CO2, 2.00 CO, 510.10 PPM and an increase of 1.67% O2. Conclusion: In comparison on the description of the manufacturers of the hydrogen generator, it is detailed that it improves engine power, reduces fuel consumption between a range of 20 to 40%, and likewise describe that can reduce 80% of polluting gases, for this reason, by means of this study those specifications were found to be invalid.

Economic valuation of the environmental services of the Ricpamba Interpretation Center of the city of Riobamba year 2017

By applying the contingent method related to natural resources, and determining the economic value of the environmental services of the Ricpamba Interpretación Center in 2017, it is established that the approximate cost of investment and the willingness to pay DAP to conserve the resources made up of 12 life zones that house forest species, ornamentals and tourist attractions, these being numerically coded, register an economic summary, estimated at $375,286.78. Through the application of the survey technique, data was obtained for environmental assessment, with the objective of recognizing the willingness to pay (WTP) of visitors to conserve the main ecosystem services. From a sample of 383 respondents, it was determined that 95 % visitors recognize the environmental benefit; 85% present the willingness to pay a monetary value for conservation. of 018.29 cents, the same that is considered as a source of economic income to pay for environmental conservation, obtaining as a result net present value of $234.00. Through the special tax collection ordinance for the population of Riobamba, conservation costs can be sustained, since CIAR is the responsibility of all of us involved. Environmental services, even though they are inventoried within the cadastre as a public Good, should not be considered as a SUBSIDIZED service.

Analysis of the participation of minors in mediation processes in family conflicts

Introduction: The participation of children and adolescents in family mediation in family conflicts is given priority, since their contribution guarantees their right to be heard, making them participate in matters that affect them, and express their emotions, feelings, and desires at the time of their intervention. Objectives: Distinguish mediation from other alternative methods of conflict resolution. Investigate the various theories on the basis of which the need for the participation of children and adolescents in family conflicts is established, in order to ensure the protection of their rights in accordance with the principle of the children and adolescents in mediation processes in family conflicts is viable. Methodology: This article presents a descriptive documentary review on the importance of the participation of minors in family mediation processes, respecting their right to be heard, effectively and correctly asserting the principle of the best interests of the child in order to safeguard their interests and respect their rights. This work defends the importance of the contribution of minors in these matters and argues that mediation is the way to be adopted for the peaceful solution of disputes of this nature. Results: The participation of minors must be implemented in a mandatory manner in family mediation in order to have a real contribution from minors, training mediators so that they can correctly guide the process by correctly and effectively asserting the principle of the best interests of the child. Conclusion: Family mediation in Ecuador does not have mediators properly trained for the case as in other countries such as Spain, México and Chiles, these countries have mediators trained to guide the process correctly with the intervention of minors, therefore, in Ecuador, in the absence of training, the rights of children and adolescents are often violated, thus reaching erroneous agreements.
