the potential sources of cr (vi) are various effluents from metallurgy, electroplating, leather tanning, textile dyeing, paint, ink, and aluminum manufacturing industries. these industrial effluents can contain cr (vi), in the concentration range of 10 to 100 mg/l (nakano et al 2000), which is much higher than the standard limit; 0.5 mg/l in industrial wastewater (epa). in aqueous systems, chro...

phase inversion in liquid-liquid dispersions corresponds to the transitional boundary between oil-in-aqueous dispersion and aqueous-in-oil dispersion. a theoretical model based on simple assumptions was proposed to predict phase inversion point, ambivalence region and the hysteresis effect of inversion. experimental data from the literature were used to validate the model and results were compa...

investigating nozzle’s orifice flow is challenging both experimentally and theoretically. this paper focuses on simulating flow inside diesel injector nozzle via ansys fluent v15. validation is performed with experimental results from winkhofler et al (2001). several important parameters such as mass flow rate, velocity profiles and pressure profiles are used for this validation. results includ...

Surface grinding is a process extensively employed for removing material with specified surface finish and integrity. It is used in processing of advanced structural ceramics like silicon carbide, which are widely used in engineering applications. Ceramic grinding is a complicated process as ceramics have high hardness and low surface toughness, which adversely affect the output quality. Optimi...

this paper criticizes the model and the new definition for osmotic pressure given by parsafar et al. [j. sci. i. r. iran, vol. 10, no. 4, 233 (1999)]. the model is a closed system containing 1 kg of solvent plus m mole of solute at constant temperature and under pressure p0 + ? where p0 is the standard pressure and ? is the osmotic pressure of the corresponding m molal solution. while the total...
