In this paper, we study the effects of the Lorentz force and the induced anisotropic thermal conductivity due to a magnetic field on the flow and the heat transfer of a ferro-nanofluid. The ferro-nanofluid is modeled as a single-phase fluid, where the viscosity depends on the concentration of nanoparticles; the thermal conductivity shows anisotropy due to the presence of the nanoparticles and t...

Introduction: Generally, geometrical parameters of the cyclone have a profound effect on determining its performance. The air outlet (Vortex Finder) as one of the cyclone’s components has a significant impact on the cyclone’s internal flow pattern, pressure drop and even dust removal efficiency. Material and Methods: Two different air outlets were designed in order to be easily installed and r...

Conventional aqueous outflow pathway – Comprised of the trabecular meshwork, the juxtacanalicular connective tissue, the endothelial lining of Schlemm’s canal, Schlemm’s canal itself, the collecting channels, and aqueous veins. Flow resistance – The flow resistance (R=DP/Q) of a tissue is the ratio between the pressure drop across that tissue (DP) and the flow rate generated by that pressure dr...

The effect of pore morphology on fluid flow through track-etched polycarbonate membrane was studied numerically by using the fluid flow software FLUENT. The model of membrane structure is a 3D bi-periodic porous surface with circular holes of finite thickness. Both of the effects of constriction and expansion of inner pore geometries on fluid flow are taken into consideration in numerical calcu...

tip leakage loss introduces major part of losses of the rotor in axial gas turbines. therefore, the rotor blade tip has a considerable effect on rotor efficiency. to understand the flow physics of the rotor tip leakage, we solve the flow field for different tip platforms (passive flow control) and by considering coolant tip injection (active flow control). various blade tip configurations such ...

the use of magnetic fields in targeted drug delivery, especially for treatment of cancers and tumoral regions, is one of the significant techniques in the field of modern methods of treatment. considering that many vital biological tissues have been located deep in the body, then for targeted drug delivery and effective treatment in these tissues, it is required to bring therapeutic agent to th...

In order to understand the evolution of the protons and magnetic field in the inner plasma sheet from quiet to disturbed conditions, we incorporate a modified version of the Magnetospheric Specification Model with a modified version of the Tsyganenko 96 magnetic field model to simulate the protons and magnetic field under an increasing convection electric field with two-dimensional force balanc...

A new ion guide has been modeled and tested for the production of a low energy (≈ 40 kV) ion beam of daughter products of alpha-emitting isotopes. The guide is designed to evacuate daughter recoils originating from the α-decay of a U source. The source is electroplated onto stainless steel strips and mounted along the inner walls of an ion guide chamber. A combination of electric fields and hel...

We give a new approach for local class field theory of Serre and Hazewinkel. In the case of characteristic zero, we also show a D-module version of this theory. Two-dimensional local class field theory is discussed in this framework.
