Given the need to increase the efficiency of heat transfer in thermal systems, especially systems using nanofluids in microscale and nanoscale heat transfer equipment ideas to improve their performance is very good.In present study, the flow and heat transfer of Water-Cu nanofluid in micro-tube with slip regime with constant wall heat flux numerically simulated with low Reynolds numbers. Sl...

Although the Gini coefficient is an ideal measure of income inequality, it may be applied to measure the aging inequality in a society. In this paper, an attempt has been made to develop alternative measures of aging inequality based on the Gini index. The study uses the secondary population data of Asian countries collected from the international data base, US census Bureau. From the analysis ...

a down-flow hanging sponge (dhs) reactor has been developed for sewage treatment, mainly in developing countries. this novel reactor employs polyurethane sponge material as a support medium, which promises a proliferation of a large amount of biomass, offering excellent pollutant removal capability. three types of sponge medium were evaluated with respect to water distribution and oxygen mass t...

The disposal of Waste Activated Sludge is a major problem. The paper presents several disposal routes. The ultimate steps in these routes are indirect drying and subsequent incineration. Although the design of the indirect dryers is straightforward from a required heat input, operating temperature difference between sludge bed and heating medium and the heat transfer coefficient, this coefficie...
