in this paper, the effect of the brownian term in natural convection of cuo-water nanofluid inside a partially filled porous cavity, with internal heat generation has been studied. it is assumed that the viscosity and thermal conductivity of nanofluid consists of a static part and a brownian part of which is a function of temperature and the volume fraction of nanofluid. because of internal hea...

Introduction In interventional oncology, thermal ablations are increasingly used for minimally invasive local treatment of solid malignancies, supplementing systemic treatment strategies such as chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The goal of all thermal ablation procedures is to cause cell death of disease tissue while sparing adjacent healthy tissue. Continuous thermometry allowing real-time asse...

Mango nectar is a commercially familiar and preferred product. The traditional processing of mango nectar has been by thermal processing which resulted in the alteration of the flavour of the product due to the effect of high temperature. The thermal processing of the nectar also resulted in the production of byproducts of non-enzymatic browning such as 5hydroxy methyl furfural (HMF). These pro...

â  â  no treatment has been proven to be effective in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) and/or steatohepatitis (nash). numerous studies have addressed this issue. however conclusive recommenâ­dations cannot be drawn solely from the currently available studies. hence we performed this systematic review to determine which of the available therapeutic modalities are supported by adequate ev...

In this study multivariate statistical analysis are used to characterize relationships between hydrochemical properties ofthermal and non-thermal springs. Four factors for thermal waters and two for non-thermal springs were extracted basedon factor analysis. In thermal springs, the first factor showed high loading on Ca, Mg, Na and K and this factor wasinterpreted as leaching of cations in the ...

The objective of this randomized, double-blind study was to determine if non-thermal pulsed electromagnetic energy treatment significantly increases the healing rate of pressure ulcers in patients with spinal cord injuries. Subjects included volunteers admitted to a Veteran's Administration Hospital in New York over a 2 year period and consisted of 30 male spinal cord-injured patients, 20 with ...

One of the undesirable features in pistachio nuts (Pistacia vera L.) is the incidence of non-split nuts, which affects the price of the final product. In order to attain the kernel inside, the non-split nuts are mostly cracked mechanically. However, this practice may damage the kernel. Akbari variety of pistachio nut was selected to evaluate the influence of different non-mechanical treatments ...
