[ 1 ] - Application of Genetic Algorithm to Determine Kinetic Parameters of Free Radical Polymerization of Vinyl Acetate by Multi-objective Optimization Technique

A Multi-objective optimization procedure has been developed to determine some kinetic parameters of free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate based on genetic algorithm. For this purpose, mathematical modeling of free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate is carried out first and then selected kinetic parameters are optimized by minimizing objective functions defined from comparing exp...

[ 2 ] - Developing a Compositional Reservoir Model for Investigating the Effect of Interfacial Tension on Oil Recovery

In this paper, a simplified formulation for compositional reservoir simulator is presented. These types of simulators are used when inter-phase mass transfer depends on phase composition as well as pressure. The procedure for solving compositional model equations is completely described. For equilibrium calculation, property estimation Peng Robinson equation of state is used. This equation ...

[ 3 ] - Identification of the sources of dust storms in the City of Ahvaz by HYSPLIT

Dust particles have dangerous impacts on human health, the environment, and the economy. Recently dust storms, originating from Arabian countries, have increased remarkably, affecting western and central parts of Iran.HYSPLIT model and the mean monthly maps of AAI (Absorbing Aerosol Index), surface skin temperature, and top soil layer moisture from OMI (Ozone Measurement Instrument) have been u...

[ 5 ] - A Numerical Simulation Study on the Kinetics of Asphaltene Particle Flocculation in a Two-dimensional Shear Flow

In the current study, the kinetics of asphaltene particle flocculation is investigated under a shear flow through numerical simulation. The discrete element method (DEM) is coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model the agglomeration and fragmentation processes. In addition, a coalescence model is proposed to consider the attachment of colliding particles. The changes in mean asph...
