The second law analysis of heat transfer of a non-Newtonian, laminar falling liquid film along an inclined heated plate is investigated. The upper surface of the liquid film is considered free and adiabatic. Velocity and temperature profiles are obtained analytically and used to compute the entropy generation number (Ns), irreversibility ratio (Ф) and the Bejan number (Be) for several values of...

This paper deals with detection and diagnosis of Stator Inter turn fault of three phase Induction motor. The proposed method is based on the stator current Clarke vector pattern. Three phase stator currents are used to construct Clarke vector pattern in order to distinguish the “healthy” and “faulty” condition of induction motor. The covered area for each pattern is calculated and the per unit ...

Abstract Background Patients with injection drug use (IDU) have increased risk of developing infective endocarditis (IE). Previous studies reported recurrent IE, duration hospital stay, poor adherence and compliance as well higher mortality worse outcomes after surgery in the IDU-IE patient group. Further are needed to provide a basis for optimized care prevention readmissions this population. ...

apres avoir presente l'origine, ie spectre de rayonnement et la totalite' de l'energie solaire arrivant sur la terre, nous citons tout d'abord les methodes et moyens d'utilisation de l'energie solaire dans ie passe(. nous presentons ensuite, les capteurs plans, concentration lineaire et ponctuelle; les moteurs et centrales solaires. puis nous discutons des generate...

The present study was carried out to characterize the cervical mucus (CM) collected when inseminating Holstein cows and to relate the secretion pattern with pregnancy. The mucus was collected from mid-cervix of 64 cows with spontaneus estrus (SE) and induced estrus (IE). The quantity, pattern and consistency of the mucus, pH, arborization patterns and the sperm motility were observed. The level...

objective(s):emap-like protein 5 (eml5) is a new echinoderm microtubule-associated protein that is expressed in the central nervous system. the aim of this study was to investigate the expression profile of eml5 in the anterior temporal neocortex of patients presenting with intractable epilepsy (ie). materials and methods:western blot assays were performed to determine eml5 expression in 36 sur...

during the epidemiological research of zoonoses, the authors have studied the rabies of wild animals : fox. for the scro lo-uical tests. the blood . was taken by heart puncture of foxes. 193 specimens were tested and 26 (13. 5%) o r the foxes had neut ralizing antibody in their blood. this study confirms that during the rabies epizooty. the vulpin population, may contract a non-fatal disease an...
