Hypersonic blunt-body flowfields containing a mixture of continuum and nonequilibrium flow are investigated using a modular particle–continuum numerical method. The modular particle–continuum method solves the Navier–Stokes equations in near-equilibrium regions and uses the direct simulation Monte Carlo method in nonequilibriumregions.Hypersonicflowof nitrogen over a two-dimensional cylinder at...

Particle methods are much less computationally efficient than grid based numerical solution of the Navier Stokes equation, and they have been used much less extensively, particularly for engineering applications. However, they have important advantages for some applications. These advantages include rigorous mass conservation, momentum conservation and isotropy. In addition, there is no need fo...

In this paper the laminar flow in the rectangular channel bends is simulated using numerical techniques. The turning angle of the channel bend and the area ratio of the channel cross-section are two important parameters to be examined. For flow simulation, the body fitted 3-D continuity and momentum equations are used and a body fitted general purpose code is developed. The existing results of ...

introduction: particle size and distribution can influence the properties of materials. this study analyzed and compared the particle size of root mta, calcium hydroxide (ch), and a new endodontic cement called calcium enriched material (cem). materials and methods: the particle size of each material was analyzed three times using 0.05 mg of test material with a particle size analyzer. the part...

Context. Modelling the emission properties of compact high energy sources such as X-ray binaries, AGN or γ-ray bursts represents a complex problem. Contributions of numerous processes participate non linearly to produce the observed spectra: particle-particle, particle-photon and particle-wave interactions. In the past decades, numerical simulations have been widely used to address the key prop...

Stoichiometric tetragonal Bal-xSrxTiO3 (x = 0.23) nanopowders were prepared by stearic acid gel(SAG) method using barium stearate, strontium stearate, tetrabutyl titanate as Ba, Sr, Ti sourcesand stearic acid as complexing reagent. Thermal analysis including differential thermogravimetric(DTG) and TG, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) andtransmission electr...
