Investigating nozzle’s orifice flow is challenging both experimentally and theoretically. This paper focuses on simulating flow inside diesel injector nozzle via Ansys fluent v15. Validation is performed with experimental results from Winkhofler et al (2001). Several important parameters such as mass flow rate, velocity profiles and pressure profiles are used for this validation. Results includ...

The effect of γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles on heat transfer rate, baffle spacing and pressure drop in the shell side of small shell and tube heat exchangers was investigated numerically under turbulent regime. γ-Al2O3-water nanofluids and pure water were used in the shell side and the tube side of heat exchangers, respectively. Since the properties of γ-Al2O3-water nanofluids were variable, they were ...

We provide a general and modular criterion for the termination of simply-typed λ -calculus extended with function symbols defined by user-defined rewrite rules. Following a work of Hughes, Pareto and Sabry for functions defined with a fixpoint operator and pattern-matching, several criteria use typing rules for bounding the height of arguments in function calls. In this paper, we extend this ap...

The rapid rise in popularity of multimedia applications, such as VoIP, IPTV and Video Conferencing, intensifies the need to consider resource management for user satisfaction. Furthermore, improving Quality of Experience (QoE) in Software Defined Networks (SDNs) services is one of the important issues to be addressed by provisioning optimum resource management. In this paper, resource allocatio...

In this paper, 2-D simulation of a 61 m long inclined snow chute flow and its interaction with a catch dam type obstacle has been carried out at Dhundhi field research station near Manali, Himachal Pradesh (India) using a commercially available computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code ANSYS Fluent. Eulerian non-granular multiphase model was chosen to model the snow flow in the surrounding atmosp...

The notion of a database query is generalized for databases with user-defined functions. Then, we can prove that the computable queries coincide with those expressible by an extension of the relational machine, with oracles ([4]). This implies that any complete query language, extended with user-defined function symbols in a "reasonable" way, is still complete. We give an example of a complete ...

This work aims at using the Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) approach to study distributed microclimate in leaf boundary layer of greenhouse crops. Understanding interactions this natural habitat plant pests (i.e., leaves), is a prerequisite for their control through targeted climate management sustainable production. The temperature and humidity simulations, inside greenhouse, were performed ...

New applications from the areas of analytical data processing and data integration require powerful features to condense and reconcile available data. Object-relational and other data management systems available today provide only limited concepts to deal with these requirements. The general concept of grouping and aggregation appears to be a fitting paradigm for a number of the mentioned issu...
