To estimate the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), indirect manner used of Pedotransfer Functions (PTFs). CEC is one of the important soil fertility factors, and not measured directly because it is costly and time consuming. Thus, used from regression equations between easily and non-easily soil properties. The purpose of this research, is develop the PTFs for CEC, with use of easily available soi...

An experimental investigation on heat transfer coefficient is presented from three horizontal tubes in a vertical array in a duct for 500<ReD<6000. A mass transfer measuring technique based on psychrometry chart is used to determine heat transfer coefficient. The diameter of the tubes is 11 mm each spaced 40 mm apart and in-line pitch ratio varies in the range 0.055<D/W<0.22. The experimenta...

Afforestation is a prevalent practice carried out for soil recovery and carbon sequestration. Improved understanding of the effects of afforestation on soil organic carbon (SOC) content and dynamics is necessary to identify the particular processes of soil organic matter (SOM) formation and/or decomposition that result from afforestation. To elucidate these mechanisms, we have used a sequential...

bubble columns are gas- liquid contactors that are widely used in chemical and bio- chemical industries. high mixing that result in high heat and mass transfer rates are amongst their advantages. heat transfer in a bubble column having a bundle of heaters investigated and the variation of heat transfer coefficient with variation in heaters pitch to diameter ratios in a bundle of heaters reporte...

An experimental study of the phase inversion behavior of liquid-liquid dispersion has been conducted in a spray extraction column for systems of toluene / water, n-hexane/water, CCl4/water, toluene /water + glycerol (25 % wt), toluene + CCl4 (25 % wt) / water and toluene / acetic acid (5 % wt)/water. The effects of physical properties, mass transfer and column geometry...

Water cooling by ambient takes place with two mechanisms of heat and mass transfer. Using packings at wet cooling towers has disadvantages such as obstruction, reduction of life expectancy and production of algae and fungi. In shower cooling towers types of towers packings are completely removed and water intake is in direct contact and heat transfer takes place in two ways of latent and sensib...

The temperature and moisture regimes in a forest are key components in the forest ecosystem dynamics. Observations and studies indicate that the internal temperature distribution and moisture content of the tree influence not only growth and development, but onset and cessation of cambial activity[1], resistance to insect predation[2], and even affect the population dynamics of the insects[3]. ...

‎the problem of two-phase mhd boundary layer flow, heat and mass transfer over a stretching sheet with fluid-particle suspension and thermal radiation has been studied. the effect of mass transfer in dusty fluid over a stretching sheet is considered for the first time. the governing equations are reduced to a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations under suitable similarity transforma...
