abstract

in this study, the effect of the levels of hydrogen addition to methane-air premixed flame in a micro-stepped reactor has been studied numerically. in addition, the effects of mixture velocity and walls’ thermal conductivity (kw) on the flame’s location, temperature, and species distribution in a micro reactor were calculated using a 2d numerical laminar steady code. the results showed that an increasing level of hydrogen in the methane-air mixture probably improves the combustion process in a micro reactor by intensifying the flame speed, adiabatic flame temperature and the generation of some crucial species (such as oh, h, hco, ho2, and h2o2). further, it was found that the addition of hydrogen to methane can shift the flame towards the inlet. in this way, it probably guarantees the flame’s presence in certain conditions compared to cases of no hydrogen addition. in conclusion, it is shown that the temperature distribution along the axis and the wall of the micro reactor can be dependent on the amounts of hydrogen added to the methane-air mixture.

epistemic modality in english and persian academic writing: a cross-linguistic study of genre on the notion of transfer

چکیده حیطه ی نوشتار دانشگاهی اخیرا شاهد تغییرات عمده ای از غیرشخصی بودن (عینی بودن) به شخصی بودن بوده است. شخصی بودن متون دانشگاهی اهمیت استفاده از وجهیت معرفتی را برجسته می سازد چرا که? وجهیت معرفتی? بر اساس یکی از تعاریف ارائه شده از این مقوله? ارتباط تنگاتنگی با شخصی بودن داشته و به عنوان بیان نظر شخصی گوینده در مورد جز گزاره ای گفته در نظر گرفته میشود. بنابراین? با در نظر داشتن نقاط مشترک...

on translation of politeness strategies in dialogues involving female characters in translations and retranslations of novels translated before and after the islamic revolution of iran and their effects on the image of women: a polysystem theory approach

abstract reception environment has considerable effects on accepting a translation. as the expectations of a target culture and its values and needs change throughout history, its criteria for accepting a translation or rejecting it will change accordingly (gentzler, 2001). the expectations of iran, as the reception environment in the present study, have changed after the islamic revolution. i...
