Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Magnetic Field on the Formation of Spin-polaron in Mn-Zn FerritesH. M.El SayedThe effect of magnetic field on the transport properties of Mn-Zn ferrite was studied. It was found that, the resistivity has an inverse relation with the applied magnetic field. This was attributed to the reduction of the scattering between the charge carriers and the disordered spins. Also, it was found that, the activation energy in the paramagnetic region is strongly … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,507 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvective Heat Transport in an Unconfined Aquifer Induced by the Field Injection of an Open-Loop Groundwater Heat PumpStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: The increasing diffusion of low-enthalpy geothermal open-loop Groundwater Heat Pumps (GWHP) providing buildings air conditioning requires a careful assessment of the overall effects on groundwater system, especially in the urban areas. The impact on the groundwater temperature in the surrounding area of the re-injection well is directly linked to the aquifer properties. Physical processes affecting heat transport within … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,970 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLarge Eddy Simulation of an Ammonia JetM. Salinas-Vazquez, A. Espinosa, E. Barrios, W. VicenteA compressible jet flow of ammonia was studied through a series of Large Eddy Simulations. Simulations were focused in the zone where the inertial effects are much bigger than the gravitational ones. The ammonia jet is discharged into an air medium and the gases are treated as a two non-reactive ideal gas mixture. Different simulations were performed, going from the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
