This study aims to improve the performance of vehicle's cooling system called radiator, which is part increasing energy efficiency. Research has been done investigate convective heat transfer hybrid nanofluid, using CuO and TiO2 nanoparticles water-ethylene glycol (RC) as base fluids on a radiator. The mass concentration varied from 0.25 %, 0.30 0.35 %. For preparation nanofluid through two-ste...

in this work, poly (o-anisidine) (poa) was prepared by consecutive potential cycling in an acidic monomer solution at the surface of carbon paste electrode (cpe). nickel ions were dispersed into the polymer by immersing the electrode in niso4 solution. the prepared ni/poa/cpe was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy (afm) a...

Biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles hold great therapeutic potential, but conventional particles can be toxic. Here, we report the synthesis and alternating magnetic field dependent actuation of a remotely controllable, multifunctional nano-scale system and its marked biocompatibility with mammalian cells. Monodisperse, magnetic nanospheres based on thermo-sensitive polymer network poly(ethyle...

Hyperthermia is one of the modalities for cancer treatment, utilizing the difference of thermal sensitivity between tumor and normal tissue. Interstitial microwave hyperthermia is one of the heating schemes and it is applied to a localized tumor. In the treatments, heating pattern control around antennas are important, especially for the treatment in and around critical organs. This paper intro...

A 61-year-old man presented with an increased anion-gap metabolic acidosis, an increased serum osmolal gap, and a negative result in an alcohol screen. Gas chromatography revealed an increased ethylene glycol (EG) concentration (22 mg/dL) and a propylene glycol (PG) result that was below the lower limit of quantification ( 5 mg/dL) (Fig. 1A). The patient was treated with hemodialysis, followed ...

Graphene oxide was prepared using modified Hummers method. Stable ethylene-glycol nanofluids containing graphene oxide nanosheets were provided. Nd: YAG pulsed laser was applied to prepare reduced nanofluids. Experimental results revealed that thermal conductivity of the nanofluids is increased with increasing the concentration of graphene oxide (GO) in ethylene glycol. The enhancement ratio of...

microwave energy has potential for the efficient heating of minerals. minerals or materials, which couple to microwave energy are called dielectrics and many valuable minerals are found to be dielectric. the mineral ilmenite is one which shows good dielectric heating characteristics. in this paper, the effect of microwave heat energy on the partial reduction of oxidized ilmenite oxidized in ...

To the Editor: The recent paper by Eder et al. (1) recalls, among other things, the problems that a clinical STAT laboratory has to face in the case of ethylene glycol poisoning. As an alternative to the precise and accurate gas chromatographic technique, the enzymatic assay with glycerol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.6) and NADH as tracer has been proposed by various authors [see, e.g., (2–4)]. The ...
