Simulation of metallurgical processes has been the subject of intense research due to the reduced number of experiments required for controlling the process as well as time and energy savings it allows. In gas carburizing of steel parts, the amount of carbon at the surface of carburized parts is the most important specification of the process in terms of achieving the desired metallurgica...

Nitrogen-filled “Vacutainers” (Becton-Dickinson, Rutherford, N. J. 07070) have been proposed for the anaerobic collection of specimens for blood gas determinations (1). We have indicated (2) that these devices, as currently supplied by the manufacturer, contain oxygen and may produce spuriously high P(02) and percentage oxyhemogobin (HbO) values. We had previously indicated preference for the u...

one way to increase the shelf life of agriculture products is using of controlled atmosphere storages. in order to obtain the controlled gas components, an equipped cold store with cooling system and atmosphere controller system designed and constructed. the injection of co2, o2 and n2 were controlled automatically into the store by programable logic control (plc). the store was a laboratory re...

the objective of this study was to determine the effect of irradiation of pomegranate seed (ps) on chemical composition, digestibility and kinetic of gas production. pomegranate seeds were exposed to gamma ray (gr) and electron beam (eb) at doses of 5, 10, 15 and 20 kgy. three ruminally fistulated rams were used for obtaining ruminal fluid for in vitro digestibility and gas production measuremen...

Increasingly restrictive emission regulations and renewed focus on energy efficiency drive the current researches to find alternative fuels and their related better combustion strategies. In this regard, dual fuel engines, in which natural gas fuel is used as a main fuel and diesel fuel is employed as a pilot fuel, have received considerable attention. However, poor fuel utilization efficiencie...

Mathematical model for a pilot scale iron ore pellet induration furnace has been developed which considers the process of induration including the reactions of limestone, magnetite and coke. The differential equations of energy, mass and momentum are solved simultaneously. The profiles of temperature, pressure and concentration are obtained. Performing separate experiments on sub processes; dry...
