Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleVariable Viscosity, Chemical Reaction and Thermal Stratification Effects on Mixed Convection Heat and Mass Transfer along a Semi-Infinite Vertical PlateP. Geetha, M.B.K. MoorthyProblem statement: In this research the researchers studied and made an analysis to the heat and mass transfer characteristics in a viscous fluid over a semi-infinite vertical porous plate by taking into account the variable viscosity, chemical reaction and thermal stratification effects. Approach: The governing partial differential equations were transformed into a set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleTransient MHD Mixed Double Diffusive Convection Along a Vertical Plate Embedded in a Non-Darcy Porous Medium with Suction or InjectionKhaled K. JaberProblem statement: Transient non-Darcy mixed double convection from a semi-infinite, isothermal vertical plate embedded in a homogeneous porous medium, in the presence of surface suction or injection had been numerically investigated. Approach: Forchheimer extension was considered in the flow equations. Appropriate transformations were employed to transform the derived partial differential equations governing the problem under consideration on the assumption of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2011 · 7,121 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDevelopment of an Axisymmetric Thermal Plume between Vertical PlatesJamil Zinoubi, Adel Gammoudi, Taoufik Naffouti et al.This investigation analyses the turbulent structure of a thermal plume created by a heated disk, evolving between vertical plates. The objective of the study was to understand the development mechanisms of this buoyancy driven flow. The analysis of the average and the fluctuating fields of the temperature as well as the flow visualisation show the existence of three different zones. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,038 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation and Experimental Analysis of a Demonstrative Solar Heating and Cooling Plant Installed in Naples (Italy)Annamaria Buonomano, Francesco Calise, Massimo Dentice d'Accadia et al.In this study the model of a Solar Heating and Cooling (SHC) system and its experimental setup are presented. The SHC system under investigation is a demonstration plant installed in Naples, based on flat plate solar collectors and a single-stage LiBr-H2O absorption chiller. In addition, two vertical tanks are installed as storage system. The balance of system includes: A cooling … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2016 · 7,802 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixing Patterns and Residence Time Determination in a Bubbling Fluidized Bed SystemA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldFluidized bed gasification can be used to convert the solar energy stored as carboneous compounds in biomass into a carbon neutral fuel with reduced emissions. Canada produces 20.57 million tonnes of wheat straw annually which could be used for green energy production. Wheat straw residue gasification has the capability of replacing 7.5 % (0.62 EJ) of Canada’s annual fossil fuel … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2012 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Melatonin in Prevention of Neuropathy in STZ-Induced Diabetic RatsNasser Zangiabadi, Vahid Sheibani, Majid Asadi-Shekaari et al.Problem statement: Diabetes mellitus occurs mainly with chronic polyneuropathy, and oxidative stress plays an important role in emergence of most neurologic and behavioral changes in diabetic patients. Many studies have focused on the beneficial effects of various antioxidants such as melatonin on diabetic neuropathy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of melatonin in prevention of neuropathy … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 9,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishment, Verification and Application of a Correlation to Predict the Maximum Heat Flux of a Horizontal Closed-Loop Pulsating Heat PipeNiti Kammuang-Lue, Teerasak Hudakorn, Pradit TerdtoonProblem statement: In heat pipe design, it was very important to be sure that the desired heat pipe would not operate in the MHF state. In the case of a vertical CLPHP, the MHF state and maximum heat flux could be predicted by using the correlation, while, in the case of a horizontal CLPHP, there had been no study presented … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Modeling of Flow in a Horizontal Sand FilterRuth Mossad, Hal AralProblem statement: Horizontal sand filters may offer some advantage over vertical sand filters as they could be used for in-line treatment of wastewaters. Horizontal pipelines of tens and if not hundreds of meters length, filled with ordinary sand or permeable reactive media such as activated carbon or natural zeolite or iron filings, may be used to remove impurities from mine … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistribution Pattern of SN in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Its Relationship with Environmental FactorsXibo Feng, Yan He, Yi Zhang et al.Studying the distribution pattern and driving mechanism of Soil Nitrogen (SN) in the agricultural areas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is of certain significance for the rational use of N fertilizer, improving the quality of land use and protecting the environment. The SN content of cultivated soil in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau agricultural areas was analyzed by combining geographical and meteorological factors. It … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 2 Jul 2020 · 6,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpace Distribution of Highland Barley GNS and its Relationship with Environmental Factors in the Qinghai-Tibet PlateauXibo Feng, Gaihua Wang, Jianlin WangIn order to study the space distribution of Grain Number per spike (GNS) and its relationship with the environmental factors in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, 83 data samples from different ecological areas were selected for GNS inverstigation. Meanwhile, the seeds of highland barley were harvested and planted in the farm of Xizang Agriculture and Animal Husbandry College; the varieties without genetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 26 Apr 2018 · 10,833 accessesView PDFCite
