In the present work, the in¯uence of the nucleation time-lag on the non-isothermal glass crystallization is discussed. Di€erential thermal analysis (DTA) results of an iron-rich glass nucleated by Cr 2 O 3 were obtained at di€erent heating rates. The activation energy of crystallization, E c , and the Avrami parameter, m, estimated by Kissinger's and Ozawa's equations were shown to be dependent...

The present research proposes and optimizes the performance of a novel solar-driven combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) Kalina system for two seasons—winter and summer—based on exergy, exergo-economic, and exergo-environmental concepts applying a Non-dominated Sort Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II) technique. Three criteria, i.e. daily exergy efficiency, total product cost rate, and to...

∣ ≪ |k⊥| and ω ≫ Ωi) in a tokamak plasma is studied. For ions satisfying v⊥ > ω/k⊥, the Lorentz force law for the ions is reduced to a set of difference equations which give the Larmor radius and phase of an ion on one cyclotron orbit in terms of these quantities a cyclotron period earlier. From these difference equations an earlier result [Phys. Fluids 21, 1584 (1978)] that above a certain wav...

the present study attempts to investigate the effect of thermal treatment at 180 °c for 8 hours on chemical changes, quality indexes and oxidative stability of three iranian common virgin olive oils (zard, mari and phishomi). oil samples were taken every 2h of heating treatment and assessed for fatty acid composition, conjugated diene value, carbonyl value, color index and oxidative stability i...

The ratio of furnace bottom ash (FBA) to flyash produced in a coal-fired boiler was historically around 25:75 with utility boilers operating with an unstaged combustion regime. With the advent of low NOx burner systems this ratio has changed and is now 15:85 or even lower. This is unfortunate since the demand for FBA is high, with 100% of is sold to the construction industry, whereas only 50% o...
