Performance evaluation of amorphous silicon photovoltaic module using solar light of different wavelengths
(Kyambogo University[unpublished work], 2022-07)The performance of amorphous silicon photovoltaic module was evaluated using solar light of different wavelengths in this study. The different wavelengths of solar light were filtered by use of colour filters. During ... -
Radiological hazard levels by the gamma ray emitting naturally occurring radioisotopes in selected fish species of Lake Albert in Uganda
(Kyambogo University (un published work), 2017-10)A study was conducted for natural radioactivity in some fish samples from Lake Albert, shared by five riparian districts namely Ntoroko, Kibaale, Hoima, Buliisa and Nebbi, located in the western part of the great ... -
Radiological hazard levels due to gamma emmiting radionuclides in natural water bodies in selected sub-counties of Mubende district
(Kyambogo University [unpublished work], 2016-01)This study was carried out to investigate the health hazard levels due to gamma rays emitted by radionuclides in natural water bodies in selected sub-counties in Mubende District. Owing to the interaction between underground ... -
Specific activity levels of radionuclides in spring water, selected plants and soils along Nakivubo channel
(Kyambogo University[unpublished work], 2014-01)There is an increase in the number of industries that discharge their effluents into Nakivubo channel. It is possible that some of the industrial effluents may contain radioactive nuclides since they are widely used in ... -
Structural and mechanical properties of non-glazed ceramic tiles developed from selected mineral deposits in Uganda
(Nano-Horizons: Journal of Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies, 2023-07)Uganda is well endowed with clay resources; however, comprehensive knowledge about the composition, structure and suitability of these clays for ceramic tile production is lacking. In this study, we provide a ... -
A study of upland clay from ant-hills as a refractory material.
(Kyambogo University [unpublished work], 2016-01)This study was purposed to investigate the suitability of upland ant-hill clays for fabricating refractory bricks. The chemical composition of the anthill clay was determined using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer ...
