The interaction of maintained homogeneous isotropic turbulence with lean premixed methane flames is investigated using direct numerical simulation with detailed chemistry. The conditions are chosen to be close to those found in atmospheric laboratory experiments. As the Karlovitz number is increased from 1 to 36, the preheat zone becomes thickened, while the reaction zone remains largely unaffe...

double-diffusive mixed convection in a lid-driven square enclosure filled with al2o3-water is numerically investigated. two-dimensional nonlinear governing equations are discretized using the control volume method and hybrid scheme. the equations are solved using simpler algorithm. the results are displayed in the form of streamlines, isotherms, and iso-concentrations when the richardson number...

Present study explores the effect of Hall current, non-linear radiation, irregular heat source/sink on magnetohydrodynamic flow of Casson nanofluid past a nonlinear stretching sheet. Viscous and Joule dissipation are incorporated in the energy equation. An accurate numerical solution of highly nonlinear partial differential equations, describing the flow, heat and mass transfer...

α-Amino nitriles are synthesized in a one-pot, three-component coupling of aldehydes (or ketones), aniline, and trimethylsilyl cyanide using a catalytic amount of choline chloride.2ZnCl2 as a bio Lewis acidic ionic liquid. Mild Lewis acidic characteristic of this ionic liquid allows efficient synthesis of α-amino nitriles from acid sensitive aldehydes.

We consider KPP-type systems in a cylinder with an arbitrary Lewis number (the ratio of thermal and material diffusivities) in the presence of a shear flow. We show that traveling fronts solutions exist for all Lewis numbers and approach uniform limits at the two ends of the cylinder.

Epithelial carcinoma and leukemia cells express sialyl Lewis x oligosaccharides as tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens. To determine the role of sialyl Lewis x oligosaccharides in tumor dissemination, human melanoma MeWo cells, which do not express sialyl Lewis x, were transfected with alpha1,3-fucosyltransferase III (FTIII), and cell lines expressing different amounts of sialyl Lewis x were...

Alloy dendrite growth during solidification with coupled thermal-solute-convection fields has been studied by phase field modeling and simulation. The coupled transport equations were solved using a novel parallel-multigrid numerical approach with high computational efficiency that has enabled the investigation of dendrite growth with realistic alloy values of Lewis number ~ 10 and Prandtl numb...
