Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplied a Closed-Loop Oscillating Heat-Pipe Heat Exchanger to Increasing Oil Yield in Pyrolysis ProcessN. Panyoyai, T. Wongsiriamnuay, S. SangsrichanProblem statement: A Closed-Loop Oscillating Heat-Pipe (CLOHP) heat exchanger was a heat exchanger with one of the most promising conductivity capacities because of its higher cooling and condensing potential. Therefore, the aims of this study were to design and fabricate a CLOHP to be applied to increasing oil yield in the pyrolysis process. Approach: Two types of oscillating heat-pipe arrangements-parallel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Vegetative Induced Deformation in an Unsaturated SoilNazri Bn Ali, Mu’azu Mohammed AbdullahiProblem statement: Tree root water-uptake increases soil strength by increasing the soil matric suction due to pore pressure dissipation in a soil mass, inducing increases in vertical total stress or water extraction, the effective stress to which the soil strata is subjected to may also increase. This causes volume change which might be detrimental to geotechnical structures and shallow foundation. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,139 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Heat Transport in a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel CellE. Afshari, S.A. JazayeriIn this study a two-phases, single-domain and non-isothermal model of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell has been studied to investigate thermal management effects on fuel cell performance. A set of governing equations, conservation of mass, momentum, species, energy and charge for gas diffusion layers, catalyst layers and the membrane regions are considered. These equations are solved numerically in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,343 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Geometry and Dimensionless Parameters on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Closed–end Oscillating Heat-pipe at Vertical PositionS. Rittidech, K. PhalasinThis heat transfer characteristics of a closed-end oscillating heat-pipe (CEOHP) depend on a number of parameters. They are the number of turns, inner diameter of the tube, aspect ratio and the dimensionless parameters of heat transfer. The CEOHPs used to employ a copper tube with inner diameter of 0.66, 1.09 and 2.03 mm. The lengths of the evaporator, adiabatic and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 6,646 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRespiratory Tract-Widening Effects of Dihydroartemisinin in Wistar Albino RatsUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu, Njoku Goddy, S. Nedosa Kenechi et al.Problem statement: Artemisinin-based anti-malarials are currently widely used in Asia and Africa. Not much is known about the systemic effect of dihydroartemisinin. This study therefore examine the effect of dihydroartemisinin on the lungs of Wistar albino rats. Approach: Five dosages of Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) were administered by oral intubation for 5 days to 5 test and 4 control Wistar albino rats. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2011 · 7,517 accessesView PDFCite
