Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) are widely used for biomedical applications due to unique optical properties, established synthesis methods, and biological compatibility. Despite important applications of plasmonic heating in thermal therapy, imaging, and diagnostics, the lack of quantification in heat generation leads to difficulties in comparing the heating capability for new plasmonic nanostructur...

the purpose of this paper is to investigate the egm method and the behavior of a solid particle suspended in a twodimensional rectangular cavity due to conjugate natural convection. a thermal lattice boltzmann bgk model is implemented to simulate the two dimensional natural convection and the particle phase was modeled using the lagrangian–lagrangian approach where the solid particles are treat...

Analysis of entropy generation rate for transient heat conduction, taking place in homogeneous solid slab with fixed temperature boundary conditions, is presented. The initial condition is defined as a constant temperature. The exact solution is solved and used to analyze the local and total entropy generation rates. Two cases, heating and cooling processes, are considered in this study. It is ...

abstract:a mathematical model for the performance prediction of an industrial glass furnace with six ports on each side was developed. this model comprises of two main sub-models for the combustion chamber and glass-melting tank. the first sub-model consists of the models for the combustion and the heat transfer model including, radiation, convection and conduction. the fuel combustion in atmos...

In recent years, enriching traditional revenue management models by considering the customer choice behavior has been a main challenge for researchers. The terminology for the airline application is used as representative of the problem. A popular and an efficient model considering these behaviors is choice-based deterministic linear programming (CDLP). This model assumes that each customer bel...

BACKGROUND Bronchial thermoplasty is a novel technique designed to reduce an airway's ability to contract by reducing the amount of airway smooth muscle through controlled heating of the airway wall. This method has been examined in animal models and as a treatment for asthma in human subjects. At the present time, there has been little research published about how radiofrequency (RF) energy an...

This paper was concerned with studying the magnetohydrodynamic steady laminar free convection flow of a micropolar fluid past a continuously moving surface in the presence of heat generation and thermal radiation. Similarity transformation was employed to transform the governing partial differential equations into ordinary ones, which were then solved numerically using the finite element method...

In this study, the thermal performance analysis of porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat generation is carried out using Haar wavelet collocation method. The effects of various parameters on the thermal characteristics of the porous fin are investigated. It is found that as the porosity increases, the rate of heat transfer from the fin increases and the th...

Damage to the small intestine secondary to heat stroke is a major factor in heat stroke-related morbidity and mortality. However, the underlying mechanisms by which heat stroke causes small intestinal lesions and dysfunction remain unclear. To explore the pathogenesis of small intestinal tissue and epithelial cell injury, the SW480 cell heat stress model and the mice heat stroke model were esta...
