in the present work, the influences of temperature, solvent concentration and ultrasonic irradiation time were numerically analyzed on viscosity reduction of residue fuel oil (rfo). ultrasonic irradiation was applied at power of 280 w and low frequency of 24 khz. the main feature of this research is prediction and optimization of the kinematic viscosity data. the measured results of eighty-four...

compressibility factor and viscosity of natural gasses are of great importance in petroleum and chemical engineering. to calculate the natural gas properties in the pipelines, storage systems and reservoirs, the exact values of gas compressibility factor and viscosity are required. a new method that allows accurate determination of compressibility factor and gas viscosity for all types of: swee...

Objective (s): Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are widely used for predicting systems’ behavior. GMDH is a type of ANNs which has remarkable ability in pattern recognition. The aim the current study is proposing a model to predict dynamic viscosity of silver/water nanofluid which can be used as antimicrobial fluid in several medical purposes.Materials and Methods: In order to have precise mode...

Abstract: The modeling of the viscous behavior of nanoemulsions and nanosuspensions is discussed. The influences of the viscosity ratio, solvation and aggregation of nanodroplets and nanoparticles on the relative viscosity of nanofluids are considered. The relative viscosity of a nanofluid is strongly affected by solvation of nanoparticles. The scaling of the relative viscosity of nanoemulsions...

the present work reports and discusses the results of a 3d simulation of the injection molding process of a rubber compound that includes the mold flling stage and  material curing, using the computer code is developed in “udf” part of the fluent 6.3 cae software. the data obtained from a rheometer (mdr 2000) is used to characterize the rubber material in order to fnd the cure model parameters ...

Viscosity, electrical conductivity and deposit weight were determined for Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) Mg2+-, Y3+-, La3+- and Ce4+-doped alumina's ethanolic suspensions prepared at dopant concentration between 350 to 1350 ppm. The concentration of XCly (X, y were: Mg, 2; Y, 3; Ce, 3 and La, 3, respectively) the charging salt, is also found to be a critical factor to control the viscosity. I...
