in this paper, mixed convection of al2o3-eg-water nanofluid in a square lid-driven enclosure is investigated numerically. the focus of this study is on the effects of variable thermophysical properties of the nanofluid on the heat transfer characteristics. the top moving and the bottom stationary horizontal walls are insulated, while the vertical walls are kept at different constant temperature...

producing parts with high density and improved mechanical properties is one of the most important aims of powder metallurgy process. there are many factors for attaining modified properties in sintered parts but among them controlling type and quantity of alloying elements and manufacturing parameters such as compacting pressure, sintering temperature are the most effective.in this research, tw...

The object of the present paper is to study temperature distribution and thermal stresses of a functionally graded thick hollow cylinder with temperature dependent material properties. All the material properties except Poisson’s ratio are assumed to be dependent on temperature. The nonlinear heat conduction with temperature dependent thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity is reduced t...

We report on a study of mixture modeling problems arising in the assessment of chemical structure-activity relationships in drug design and discovery. Pharmaceutical research laboratories developing test compounds for screening synthesize many related candidate compounds by linking together collections of basic molecular building blocks, known as monomers. These compounds are tested for biologi...

abstract background: processes such as drying, sauce making, extracting and doping reduced nutritional value and unique sensory characteristics of pomegranate. on the other hand, the difficulty in peeling and removing the arils has limited its fresh consumption. for this reason, the “ready-to-eat” pomegranate may represent a possible option to implement fresh fruit consumption. in this study, t...

in this article the transient heat transfer in rubber parts has been studied. this study is usefull for estimation of the minimum curing time of the rubber parts and thereby to ensure the quality of the rubber. also is the temperature distribution during the rubber curing is well know, then the curing time could accurately be estimated, which will lead to a better curing process. in this regard...
