چکیده

for better understanding the effect of nanofluid flow in a porous medium, a set of experiments were conducted on a horizontal glass micromodel for al2o3-water nanofluids. to characterize the flow of nanofluids the same experiment was done by pure water. the glass micromodel was constructed by a photolithography technique. the al2o3-water nanofluids were produced by a two-step method and no surfactant or ph changes were used. the nanofluids were made in different volume fractions of 0.1%, 0.5%, and 1%. the experimental results show that the pressure drop of nanofluids through the micromodel increases up to 43% at volume concentration of 0.01. moreover, the al2o3-water nanofluids behave like a newtonian fluid and follow darcy’s law at low reynolds numbers. the permeability of the porous medium has been evaluated in different volume fraction of nanofluids and pure water. the results reveal that the assessed permeability doesn’t change significantly in various volume concentrations of nanoparticles in the constructed micromodel. a semi analytical correlation was proposed for calculating the permeability of such porous medium.

the effectiveness of strategy-based instruction in teaching english as a second or foreign language: a meta-analysis of experimental studies

a large number of single research studies on the effects of strategy-based instruction (sbi) in teaching english as a foreign or second language has been conducted so far. however, the lack of a comprehensive meta-analysis targeting the effectiveness of english language sbi is observed. moreover, the findings of experimental studies regarding the context of the english language, proficiency lev...

Thermoplastic Micromodel Investigation of Two-Phase Flows in a Fractured Porous Medium

In the past few years, micromodels have become a useful tool for visualizing flow phenomena in porous media with pore structures, e.g., the multifluid dynamics in soils or rocks with fractures in natural geomaterials. Micromodels fabricated using glass or silicon substrates incur high material cost; in particular, the microfabrication-facility cost for making a glass or silicon-based micromold ...

a study of baudrillards ideas in brian moores fiction

پیدایش مرحله ی جدیدی از نظام سرمایه داری بعد از جنگ جهانی دوم همزمان است با ظهور عصر اطلاعات و رسانه جمعی. در چنین جامعه ای سیر آزادانه ی نشانه ها در فضای بی اساس مجازی بر سرعت فرسایش واقعیت می افزاید. به اعتقاد بودریار، فقدان واقعیت به واسطه ی شبیه سازی آن و تولید حاد واقعیت (hyperreality) پنهان خواهد ماند. این پژوهش بر آن است که جامعه فرانوین توصیف شده در سه رمان بریان مور را با توجه به نظر...

MHD Jeffrey NanoFluids Flow Over a Stretching Sheet Through a Porous Medium in Presence of Nonlinear Thermal Radiation and Heat Generation/Absorption

In this article, a numerical investigation of magnetohydrodynamic non-Newtonian nanofluid flow on a stretching sheet through an isotropic porous medium. The effects of both non-linear thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption were studied on distributions of velocity, temperature and concentration. On the other side, the governing partial differential equations have been transformed by u...

Flow-induced channelization in a porous medium

Flow through a saturated, granular, porous medium can lead to internal erosion, preferential flow enhancement, and the formation of channels within the bulk of the medium. We examine this phenomenon using a combination of experimental observations, continuum theory and numerical simulations in a minimal setting. Our experiments are carried out by forcing water through a Hele-Shaw cell packed wi...
