Abstract To directly incorporate the intermolecular interaction effects into discrete unified gas-kinetic scheme (DUGKS) for simulations of multiphase fluid flow, we developed a pseudopotential-based DUGKS by coupling pseudopotential model that mimics DUGKS. Due to flux reconstruction procedure, additional terms break isotropic requirements will be introduced. eliminate influences nonisotropic ...

PURPOSE To compare the diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) with that of multiphase computed tomography (CT) in the evaluation of tumor response to transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty patients (41 men, 9 women; mean age, 53 years±12.5 [SD]) with a total of 70 HCCs (mean size, 5cm±3 [SD]) were evaluated. Pos...

In this dissertation, we studied a general equilibrium model for multiphase multicomponent inorganic atmospheric aerosols. We developed the thermodynamic model to predict the phase transition and multistage growth phenomena of inorganic aerosols. The thermodynamic equilibrium is given by the minimum of the Gibbs Free Energy for a system involving an aqueous phase, a gas phase and solid salts. A...

Coupling between fluid flow and mechanical deformation in porous media plays a critical role in geologic storage of CO2. One of the key issues in simulation of CO2 sequestration is the ability to describe the mechanical and hydraulic behavior of faults, and the influence of the stress tensor and change in pressure on fault slip. Here, we present a new computational approach to model coupled mul...

Three phase supply is available in the generating station or grid, were as nine phase supply is required for many industrial applications such as, aerospace, railway and automobile applications. There are different methods in which we can convert 3 to 9 phase using 18-Pulse Converter, Carrier Based PWM Technique, multilevel converter and Multiphase Transformer. The above said methods which are ...
