an investigation of the impact of self monitoring on langauge teachers motivational practice and its effect on learners motivation

the central purpose of this study was to conduct a case study about the role of self monitoring in teacher’s use of motivational strategies. furthermore it focused on how these strategies affected students’ motivational behavior. although many studies have been done to investigate teachers’ motivational strategies use (cheng & d?rnyei, 2007; d?rnyei & csizer, 1998; green, 2001, guilloteaux & d?...

Critical Effect of Rotor Vanes with Different Injection Angles on Performance of a Vaned Type Novel Air Turbine

Globally faster consumption of hydrocarbon fuel in the transport sector is posing threat to environmental and ecological imbalances and thereby depletion of hydro-carbon fuel is causing another challenge to oil reserves. In view of these issues extensive researches are being carried out to explore the alternative energy source and or to find out appropriate energy conversion system. The atmosph...

Numerical Study of a Pipe Extension Effect in Draft Tube on Hydraulic Turbine Performance

Draft tube of Francis type hydraulic turbine usually consists of: cone, elbow and diffuser. On the contrary, in some power stations an extra pipe should be added to the draft tube at the bottom of cone because of installation limitation. In this paper, this special case has been numerically studied. To this end CFD analysis was applied to simulate all parts of hydraulic turbine. A homogeneous m...

An Investigation of Applicability of Transporting Water Mist for Cooling Turbine Vanes

This paper presents a numerical study to investigate the feasibility of transporting mist through the internal cooling channel in high-pressure turbine vanes for film cooling over the vane's surface. The idea of using mist film cooling to enhance conventional air cooling has been proven to be a feasible technique in the laboratory conditions and by computational simulations. However, there is a...
