flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...

A study was conducted in 2009/2010 cropping season in order to determine energy input/out put and productivity of potato and sugar beet production systems in Isfahan province, Central Iran. The data used in this study was based on data collected from growers by using a face to face survey. Total energy consumption and total out put enegy in potato production systems were calculated to be about ...
