چکیده

Photobioreactor design is a subject of great relevance for the attainment of a sustained development in modern technology, and has also considerable interest from the basic scientific and technologic point of view. The aim of the present review paper is presenting and comparing some of the recent attempts by the authors of modelling photosynthesis in reactors. A short inspection of the kinetic models proposed for photobioreactor design is done, and some examples of the integration of such kinetic models and bioreactor fluid dynamics in the modelling of photobioreactors are presented.

Investigation of stepped planning hull hydrodynamics using computational fluid dynamics and response surface method

The use of step at the bottom of the hull is one of the effective factors in reducing the resistance and increasing the stability of the Planning hull. The presence of step at the bottom of this type of hulls creates a separation in the flow, which reduces the wet surface on the hull, thus reducing the drag on the body, as well as reducing the dynamic trim. In this study, a design space was cre...

Multiphase flow and tromp curve simulation of dense medium cyclones using Computational Fluid Dynamics

Dense Medium Cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. It is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in DMCs complex. In this article the flow pattern simulation of DMC is performed with computational fluid dynamics and Fluent...
