Abstract:

In the present study the surfactant based cleaning and water based cleaning systems have been fabricated and both systems were compared with system without washing. The experimental investigations are done in the month of March, April and May (from 4th March to 1st June) to analyze the performance enhancement. The surfactant and water based system contains manual cleaning by mixing surfactant in water. Power and efficiency were compared.
