Modeling of Nanofiltration for ‎Concentrated Electrolyte Solutions using ‎Linearized Transport Pore Model

   In this study, linearized transport pore model (LTPM) is applied for modeling nanofiltration (NF) membrane separation process. This modeling approach is based on the modified extended Nernst-Planck equation enhanced by Debye-Huckel theory to take into account the variations of activity coefficient especially at high salt concentrations. Rejection of single-salt (NaCl) electrolyte is inve...

Convection Heat Transfer Modeling of Nano- fluid Tio2 Using Different Viscosity Theories

In this paper, the effects of adding nanoparticles including Tio2 to a fluid media for purpose of free convection heat transfer improvement were analyzed. The free convection was assumed to be in laminar flow regime and the solutions and calculations were all done by the integral method. Water, as a Newtonian fluid, was considered the base fluid (water) and all the thermo physical properties of...

Fuzzy relations, Possibility theory, Measures of uncertainty, Mathematical modeling.

A central aim of educational research in the area of mathematical modeling and applications is to recognize the attainment level of students at defined states of the modeling process. In this paper, we introduce principles of fuzzy sets theory and possibility theory to describe the process of mathematical modeling in the classroom. The main stages of the modeling process are represented as fuzz...

Roughness effects on thin film physical properties

The emergence of thin film nanoscience as an identifiable field of investigation parallels the development and adaptation of surface structural and chemical probes to provide in situ real-time atomic-scale data during film growth. The next step in this evolutionary process, which evolving right now, is the addition of theory and modeling as standard approaches, used in combination with the abov...
