slPCMlib predicts the effective thermal properties of solid/liquid phase change materials (PCM) showing a non-isothermal transition behavior. The are valid over PCM functional temperature range where latent heat is absorbed and released. Different phenomenological models implemented to account for shifts in changes, e.g. due multi-step transitions hysteresis. library currently contains generic ...

the ability of natural clinoptilolite and its modified forms were studied for removal of pahs from n-paraffin. surfactant modified zeolite (smz) was obtained by modifying clinoptilolite with hexadecyltrimethylammonium ion. homoionic forms of zeolite were obtained by ion exchange process using inorganic salts of desirable cations (e.g. ag+, fe3+…). natural clinoptilolite and its cation exchanged...

abstract khuzestan province accommodates the largest oil-fields with huge petroleum production in iran. oil spills through transportations, oil pumping station and storage tanks are the cause of frequent contamination in land areas, including crop fields, imposing great damages to soil ecology. thus, oil removal from contaminated soil by advance technologies such as bioremediation seems to be o...

Due to fast depletion of conventional energy sources and ever increasing demand of energy, many researchers started paying attention to renewable energy sources.Thermal Energy Storage (TES) is one of the key technologies for energy conservation and has recently been developed to a point where it can have a significant impact on modern technologies. The present work deals with the study of a sph...

Next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have revolutionized cancer research allowing the comprehensive study of cancer using high throughput deep sequencing methodologies. These methods detect genomic alterations, nucleotide substitutions, insertions, deletions and copy number alterations. SOLiD (Sequencing by Oligonucleotide Ligation and Detection, Life Technologies) is a promising techn...

In this work, a paraffin- metal foam composite were prepared by the vacuum impregnation method. Aluminum and nickel foams used. The aim of study is to characterize thermal behavior these composites with view their use for management Li-ion batteries. First, conductivities diffusivities in solid state evaluated using Hot Disk Thermal Constants Analyzer (TPS 2500S) Transient Guarded Plate Techniq...
