the purpose of this study is to identify parameters influence on the particle deposition within fin and tube heat exchanger of air-conditioning systems by cfd analysis. first the basic sketch of periodic geometry drawn and meshing operation including boundary conditions was performed. then the gas side properties and flow parameters were solved by ansys fluent 14.5 software. lagrangian equation...

a comprehensive mathematical model based on the discrete particle model and computational fluid dynamics was utilized to investigate mixing and segregation of particles in fluidized beds at high pressure. to quantify the extent of mixing in the bed, the lacey mixing index was used. simulations were carried out with different mass fractions of small particles at various pressures ranging from 1 ...

This paper studies a phase field model for the mixture of two immiscible and incompressible fluids. The model is described by a nonlinear parabolic system consisting of the nonstationary Stokes equations coupled with the Allen-Cahn equation through an extra phase induced stress term in the Stokes equations and a fluid induced transport term in the Allen-Cahn equation. Both semi-discrete and ful...

Acyclic phase-type distributions form a versatile model, serving as approximations to many probability distributions in various circumstances. They exhibit special properties and characteristics that usually make their applications attractive. Compared to acyclic continuous phase-type (ACPH) distributions, acyclic discrete phase-type (ADPH) distributions and their subclasses (ADPH family) have ...

Coupled Ising models are studied in a discrete choice theory framework, where they can be understood to represent interdependent choice making processes for homogeneous populations under social influence. Two different coupling schemes are considered. The nonlocal or group interdependence model is used to study two interrelated groups making the same binary choice. The local or individual inter...

We propose a criterion to determine a more appropriate software reliability growth model in the early development phase. The criterion with a discrete software reliability growth model determines the absolute worth of a model because the discrete software reliability growth model perfectly reproduces the parameter estimates when the data are used as an exact solution of the equation. The values...

with the increase of communication and financial transaction through internet, on-line signature verification is an accepted biometric technology for access control and plays a significant role in authenticity and authorization in modernized society. therefore, fast and precise algorithms for the signature verification are very attractive. the goal of this paper is modeling of velocity signal t...

introduction as a tumor grows, the demand for oxygen and nutrients increases and it grows further if acquires the ability to induce angiogenesis. in this study, we aimed to present a two-dimensional continuous mathematical model for avascular tumor growth, coupled with a discrete model of angiogenesis. materials and methods in the avascular growth model, tumor is considered as a single mass, wh...
