Based on our previous developed 2D CA-FVM model, where the transport phenomna and kinetics conditions of solute-driven dendritic growth occurred in the solidification process with fluid flow were totally taken into consideration, an extensive model validation and furhter model application are demonstrated here. Firstly, the flow pattern of the lid-driven cavity is well predicted and quantitativ...

Sepsis is an adverse systemic inflammatory response caused by microbial infection in blood. This paper reports a simple microfluidic approach for intrinsic, non-specific removal of both microbes and inflammatory cellular components (platelets and leukocytes) from whole blood, inspired by the invivo phenomenon of leukocyte margination. As blood flows through a narrow microchannel (20 × 20 µm), d...

In this investigation, observations are made for further analysis of heat and mass transfer in magnetohydrodynamic mixed convectional nanofluid flow over a time-dependent stretching sheet. Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) water is taken as carrier fluid with different types nanoparticles such Titanium (TiO $$_{2}$$ ), Silver (Ag), Aluminum (Al O $$_{3}$$ ) copper (Cu). Flow contains, chemical reac...

introduction drying foods, fruits and vegetables is a suitable method to reduce post-harvest losses of the crops. drying is considered as a simultaneous heat and mass transfer process. various physical, chemical and nutritional changes occur during drying of foods and are affected by a number of internal and external heat and mass transfer parameters. external parameters may include temperature...

Background and Aims: Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing gram negative bacteria are resistant to penicillins, narrow and extended-spectrum cephalosporins, and aztreonam; also they are frequently resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, aminoglycosides, and quinolones. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants q...

The present research work scrutinizes numerical heat transfer in convective boundary layer flow having characteristics of magnetic ( Fe 3 O 4 ) and nonmagnetic id="M2"> Al 2 nanoparticles synthesized into two different kinds Newt...

today, the cement industry is one of the major air polluting industries in the world. hence, in this study, owing to the importance and role of contaminants from the plant, an appraisal of the emission contributions in addition to other factors have been discussed. there are several reasons behind the importance of modeling air pollutants. first, the assessment of standards for air pollution, a...

Salati and Nobre (1990), in a review of the basinscale water vapor budget of the Amazon Basin analyzed by previous studies, pointed out that evapotranspiration accounts for more than 50% of precipitation. This estimate was later confirmed by Nobre et al. (1991) using the water vapor budget of several studies with various horizontal scales within the Amazon Basin. Note that total evapotranspirat...
