This study was conducted from May to October 2008 in two villages in Chanthaburi Province: village No. 2 Tup Sai Canton (control) and village No.12 Pong Nam Ron (treatment area). Indoor residual spraying, using 10% bifenthrin WP (Bitecthrin WP) was conducted at a concentration of 25 mg/m2 with 87.3% spray coverage of the houses in the treated area. Monthly entomological studies showed that in t...

The definition of hazard area, centered inside the LNG stations, is essential for risk assessment in LNG industry. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations have been conducted for the two main LNG hazards, LNG flammable vapor dispersion and LNG pool fire radiation, to determine the hazard exclusion area. The spatial and temporal distribution of hazard in complex spill scena...

A novel approach to reduce the multiple light scattering contribution in planar laser images of atomizing sprays is reported. This new technique, named Structured Laser Illumination Planar Imaging (SLIPI), has been demonstrated in the dense region of a hollow-cone water spray generated in ambient air at 50 bars injection pressure. The idea is based on using an incident laser sheet which is spat...

• Adding CeO 2 nanopowder and CNT as fuel additives leads to reduced emissions. Fuel reduce the penetration of DF during injection at low ambient pressure. increases GTL after injection. Higher pressure or temperature a increased average cone angle. Penetration reduces with growing This work aims experimentally investigate demonstrate impacts using Cerium Oxide (CeO ) multi-wall carbon nanotube...

It is suggested recently that most of halo coronal mass ejections (CMEs) may be formed by an ice cream cone-like shell of dense CME electrons. We improve our cone model (Zhao, Plunkett and Liu, 2002) to include the contribution of the top surface of the ice cream part as well as the cone part to the shape of the halo CMEs. It is found that for an ice cream cone with a half sphere sitting on the...
