abstract background: with respect to the difference in the interaction of thermal neutron and x rays with matter, using two radiography systems of thermal neutron and x rays will yield highly valuable information for studying the inner structure of biologic samples. methods: the high sensitivity of thermal neutron to hydrogen, in particular, has led to recognizing this system as a useful tool i...

Because of the differences between indoor and outdoor thermal condition, preparing some outdoor thermal indices is a way to understand and categorize the outdoor thermal sensation. The aim of these indices is not to provide thermal comfort - as it is the aim of indoor indices. Instead, they are provided to analyze outdoor thermal sensation to help architects, landscape architects and urban desi...

  Objective: Studies have demonstrates that physical properties of denture base affect patient satisfaction and acceptance. Thermal conductivity is among the most important properties of denture base influencing the sense of taste and gingival health. The conventionally used acrylic resin has a low coefficient of thermal conductivity. This study aimed to improve the thermal conductivity of acry...

In turbulent flows as in HVAC applications, the fluctuation of air speed can affect sensation thermal comfort. This study is a part larger experimental and numerical campaign intended to evaluate influence turbulence intensity at inlet distribution systems on local draft discomfort for different ventilation cases using simulations. For five imposed values (0%, 3%, 10%, 30%, 50%) heat loss body ...

background: lactoperoxidase (lpo) is one of the most heat-stable enzymes in milk and its inactivation has been proposed for monitoring thermal processes. the aim of this study was to provide information on activity and thermal inactivation behavior of lpo in iranian cow and buffalo milk and whey. methods: sixty cow and buffalo milk samples were collected. the lpo activity was measured using spe...

The design of a building can provide the highest thermal comfort in the interior without any mechanical equipment and save energy to a large extent. The roof of a building is an important part for thermal loss. This research studies the thermal performance of 14 conventional roof structures in Tehran city by using designbuilder 4.5. It is found that the polystyrene block performs best compared ...

Cooling is one of the most important challenges in industries, especially in the automotive industry. The coolant which is used in engine radiators possesses lower thermal conductivity. To enhance the thermal properties, coolant was dispersed in nano-sized particles and the fluid is called as Nanofluid. In this Study, Silica Nanoparticle was dispersed in Paraflu Engine coolant usin...
