A series of experiments was carried out using a dual sensor conductance probe to measure the local axial oil velocity distribution and the local oil volume fraction distribution in vertical, oil in water bubbly flows in an 80mm diameter vertical pipe. Values of the water superficial velocity were in the range 0.276 1 ms to 0.417 1 ms , values of the oil superficial velocity were in the range 0....

an attempt is made for the first time to solve the quadratic and cubic model of magneto hydrodynamic poiseuille flow of phan-thein-tanner (ptt). series solution of magneto hydrodynamic (mhd) flow is developed by using homotopy perturbation method (hpm). results are presented graphically and the effects of non-dimensional parameters on the flow field are analyzed. the results obtained reveals ma...

As an ecological measure to deal with river water quality problems, artificial floating islands have been widely used all over the world, but research on root deformation and shear vortex width under action of is rare. In this paper, relationship between vegetation roots parameters different hydrodynamic conditions experimentally studied. The results show that Cauchy number (Ca) value gradually...

In conductors with a very low defect density, electrons at temperatures collide mainly the sample edges; therefore, ballistic transport of charge and heat is implemented. An applied perpendicular magnetic field significantly modifies transport. For case two-dimensional electrons, in fields which diameter cyclotron trajectories smaller than width, hydrodynamic regime forms. this regime, flow con...

1. Microradiographic techniques have been used to show that endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF), which is believed to be nitric oxide, influences vasomotor responses in small arteries and arterioles down to 25 micron in diameter in an isolated, intact, buffer-perfused ear preparation of the rabbit. Arteries down to 75 micron in diameter, i.e. the central ear artery (G0) and its first thr...

Since the original publications by Martini et al. (Dtsch. Arch. Klin. Med. 169: 212-222, 1930) and Fahraeus and Lindqvist (Am. J. Physiol. 96: 562-568, 1931), it has been known that the relative apparent viscosity of blood in tube flow depends on tube diameter. Quantitative descriptions of this effect and of the dependence of blood viscosity on hematocrit in the different diameter tubes are req...

In the present research, the D-(+)-Glucose–confined water nanodroplets with mean size in the range of 6-11 nm were synthesized at D-(+)-Glucose different concentrations by AOT reverse micelles (RMs) method as a function of mass fraction of droplet (MFD) at the constant water-to-surfactant molar ratio ( W=40). The dynamic light scattering of the nano-sized water droplets containing the D-(+)-Glu...

in the procedure of designing an underwater vehicle or robot, its maneuverability and controllability must be simulated and tested, before the product is finalized for manufacturing. since the hydrodynamic forces and moments highly affect the dynamic and maneuverability of the system, they must be estimated with a reasonable accuracy. in this study, hydrodynamic coefficients of an autonomous un...

to determine the droplet characteristics of agricultural spray nozzles through water sensitive paper (wsp), the non-circular and overlapped spots appearing on the water sensitive paper surfaces are eliminated. in the conventional approach, the procedure is done according to the subjective self determined estimation of the operator. the objective of this study was to develop a practical alternat...

Methods Clinical Records of 17 children (16 girls and 1 boy) were retrospectively analyzed over a period of 24 months (Mar 2012 to Mar 2014). All children satisfied the criteria for precocity based on clinical features, radiological assessment and GnRHa stimulation test. All 16 girls had idiopathic precocious puberty and the only boy had hypothalamic hamartoma. The mean age of presentation was ...
