This study presents a theoretical analysis of a new combined cooling, heating, and power cycle by the novel integration of an organic Rankine cycle (ORC), an ejector refrigeration cycle (ERC), and a heat pump cycle (HPC) for producing cooling output, heating output, and power output simultaneously. Three different working fluids—namely R113, isobutane, and R141b—have been used in power, ref...

Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) is one of the most important herbs and medicinal plants that allocate main part of medicinal plant export in Iran. This investigation was conducted to study the effects of drought stress on important agronomic traits of different cumin ecotypes from the major cumin cultivation of the country. Forty-nine ecotypes from different regions of Iran were planted in a simple ...

to survey the effects of nutritional and growth regulator components on adverse effects of recent consecutive droughts, an experiment was conducted on uniform grape trees (vitisviniferal.clv.'khalili') in bavanat and shiraz (akbar-abad) regions in 2010- 2011.trial was arranged in a randomized complete blockdesign (rcbd), with three replication and five trees per each plot. experimental treatmen...

The water cycle shows the continuous and complex movement of within earth atmosphere in which moves from land ocean surface to back form precipitation [...]

16 17 Climate variability and climate change induce important intra-and inter-annual variability of 18 precipitation that significantly alters the hydrologic cycle. The surface water budgets and the plant or 19 ecosystem water use efficiency (WUE) are in turn modified. Obtaining greater insight into how 20 climatic variability and agricultural practices affect water budgets and regarding their ...

This paper focuses on the quantification of the green – vegetation related – water flux of forest stands in the temperate lowland of Flanders. The underlying reason of the research was to develop a methodology for assessing the impact of forests on the hydrologic cycle in comparison to agriculture. The tested approach for calculating the water use by forests was based on the application of the ...
