چکیده

Powder mixing has been the subject of substantial research due to its importance in a variety of industrial sectors, including pharmaceuticals, food, and polymer manufacturing. Although a number of different models have been proposed in the literature, most of them are either empirical or require computationally intensive calculations that make them difficult to implement for realistic systems. The aim of this paper is to develop a simplified framework, based on compartment modeling that efficiently and accurately captures the system behavior. Using the V-blender as a model system, the compartment modeling approach was used to illustrate the effects of vessel loading on mixing as well as the impact of sampling methods on the accuracy of mixing characterization.

Fatigue Life of Graphite Powder Mixing Electrical Discharge Machining AISI D2 Tool Steel

The present paper deals with the design of experimental work matrices for two groups of experiments by using Response surface methodology (RSM). The first EDM group was dealt with the use of kerosene dielectric alone, while the second was treated by adding the graphite micro powders mixing to dielectric fluid (PMEDM). The total heat flux generated and fatigue lives after EDM and PMEDM models we...

Some Conditions for Characterizing Minimum Face in Non-Radial DEA Models with Undesirable Outputs

The problem of utilizing undesirable (bad) outputs in DEA models often need replacing the assumption of free disposability of outputs by weak disposability of outputs. The Kuosmanen technology is the only correct representation of the fully convex technology exhibiting weak disposability of bad and good outputs. Also, there are some specific features of non-radial data envelopment analysis (DEA...
