The lubricating oils in each mechanical device are affected by shear forces. Polymers in lubricating oils engine, in particular, undergo many changes because of the influence of the applied forces. Awareness of these changes can help us to design optimal formulations. In this work, shear stability of four commercial was studied. Calculation of various parameters about viscosity in the enhancing...

rheological characteristics of al2o3, cuo and tio2 nano particles were investigated in oil asthe base fluid at 1 and 2 wt.%. constitutive relations for non-newtonian fluid were discussedbased on the power-law model. measured viscosities of each nanofluid were used to evaluatethe power-law and consistency index. results indicated that the nanofluid viscosity decreasedby increasing the concentrat...

Knowledge base (KB) refinement is a suitable technique to support expert system (ES) validation. When used for validation, KB refinement should be guided not only by the number of errors to solve but also by the importance of those errors. Most serious errors should be solved first, even causing other errors of lower importance but assuring a neat validity gain. These are the bases for IMPROVER...

This paper aims to design bio-based polyester as a viscosity modifier for lubricant properties. Bio-based polyricinoleate (PRic) and its saturated homologous polyhydroxystearate (PHS) have been synthesized from fatty acid methyl esters. The polycondensation performed in bulk one-step reaction without any purification leads two series of polyesters within large range molecular weights, with Mw b...

density, viscosity and refractive index of pure, binary and ternary mixtures of diethanolamine (dea) and methyl diethanolamine (mdea) with water have been measured at different temperatures from 288.15 k to 323.15 k at atmospheric pressure. also, this study presents the effects of mixture composition and temperature upon these thermo- physical properties. to measure the density and refractive i...

in this research, seeds of iranian carob trees grown wild in kazeroon city (fars province) were used to extract iranian locust bean gum as a seed galactomannan. chemical composition, solubility, and rheological properties of crude and purified gums were investigated and compared with a commercial (sigma) locust bean gum (lbg) sample. chemical composition of the purified iranian lbg was similar ...

Abstract. The purpose of the research is to develop a comprehensive assessment system with new indicators feed behavior and conversion in Duroc pigs based on selection index. Research methods. Herdsman database was used, which includes processing data fattening characteristics feeding 764 heads that have passed test at automatic stations. 13 were evaluated, 7 6 – characteristics. evaluation bre...

The low flow characteristics of heavy oil have brought many challenges to its exploitation. Looking for a cost-effective crude improver reduce the viscosity is currently most important challenge. Small-molecule improvers meet above requirements and become an ideal target oilfield production. In this article, three kinds barium salts alkylbenzene sulfonates with different lengths alkyl chains we...

Sorbet is one of common frozen desserts. It prepared with low concentration fat and protein; thus, the use stabilizer in sorbet formulation extremely dictates final properties. This current work investigated quality (hardness, total solids, °Brix, viscosity, overrun, melting rate, vitamin C, lycopene content, organoleptic test) tomato-based added different levels xanthan gum as lemon juice tast...
