Aluminum sulfate nano structures have been prepared by solution combustion synthesis using aluminum nitrate nonahydrate (Al(NO3)3.9H2O) and ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4). The resultant aluminum sulfate nano structures were calcined at different temperatures to study thermal  decomposition of aluminum sulfate. The crystallinity and phase of  the as-synthesized and calcined samples were char...

in this study, pyrite was produced by hydrothermal precipitation from the reaction between feso4 and na2s2o3 at high pressure and high temperature in a stirred reactor. the solid product was purified by means of solvent extraction to remove sulfur. powder was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and thermal analyses. results indicated that pyrite was prod...

In current study, nanoparticles and single crystals of a Zn(II) coordination complex, [Zn(dmph)I2](1), {dmph=2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline(neocuproine)}, have been synthesized by the reaction of zinc(II) acetate, KI and neocuproine as ligand in methanol using sonochemical and heat gradient methods, respectively. The nanostructure of 1 was characte...

Development of components that can form large molecular aggregates through non–covalent interactions, in nano size structures, has been an active area of research. In current study, a nano-sized Pb(II) coordination polymer, {[Pb(pydc)(pydc.H2)(H2O)2]2}n (1), where [pydc.H2= 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid), wer...

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effect of different methods for improving the temperature gradient of a specified gasoline engine piston. With a robust FE based software, 3D thermal analyses have been carried out for the piston model. Unlike previous studies, the effects of both fully and locally ceramic layers on the crown top surface were considered. It was found that a fully cer...

We study the properties of the 0 glueball at finite temperature using SU(3) quenched lattice QCD. We find a significant thermal effects near Tc. We perform the χ fit analyses adopting two Ansätze for the spectral function, i.e., the conventional narrow-peak Ansatz and an advanced Breit-Wigner Ansatz. The latter is an extension of the former, taking account of the appearance of the thermal width...

Micro-Channel Heat Sink is a heat exchanger which is used to control the temperature of electronic devices with high heat flux. A comprehensive thermal model for the micro-channels should include three dimensional conduction analysis in the solid body together with three dimensional developing fluid flow as well as heat transfer analyses in the fluid section. This paper reports on a research ...

The toroidal field coil system of the FIRE tokamak utilizes LN2 cooled, copper alloy Bitter plate type magnets. The baseline configuration is wedged; C17510 high strength, high conductivity beryllium copper alloy conductor developed for BPX is proposed for the conductor. These design choices were made after considering a number of alternative structural concepts and a variety of conductor mater...

Lattice Monte Carlo methods are an excellent choice for the simulation of non-linear thermal diffusion problems. In this paper, and for the first time, Lattice Monte Carlo analysis is performed on thermal diffusion combined with convective heat transfer. Laminar flow of water modeled as an incompressible fluid inside a copper pipe with a constant surface temperature is considered. For the simul...
