متن کاملSeismic Damage and Disaster Management Maps (A Case Study)
There are many cities in developing countries that are built with minimal seismic considerations. Also, due to the expenses involved regarding detailed and analytical identification of such vulnerable buildings and structures in these cities, is very difficult and also time consuming. It is necessary and much needed to have a quick and inexpensive solution for such assessment in cities with the...
متن کاملThermal Design Considerations and Performance Evaluation of Cryogenic Tube in Tube Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are the most important equipment in refrigeration processes. Design and modeling of heat exchangers operating at low temperatures are different from other regular heat exchangers. This study includes two sections. In the first section, design and modeling considerations needed for evaluating the real thermal behavior of heat exchangers at low temperatures were discussed. The...
