the bubble effectiveness in liquid phase cylohexane non-catalytic oxidation process is discussed in this paper. then the bubble effectiveness and a new proposed kinetic model are used in the mathematical model of the industrial reactor for the cyclohexane non-catalytic oxidation process. furthermore, simulation and optimization based on this reactor model are carried out. the results of simulat...

herd behavior by investors in capital markets is a behavioral bias that can cause to undesirable effects such as bubble, crash and high fluctuation in stock price. this anomalies can disturb the equilibrium relations in stock market and lead to market inefficiency. herd behavior is a condition that investors with rational or in rational reasons ignore private information and imitate from others...

Shell and Tube heat exchangers are the heat exchangers that are most widely used in industries and for other commercial purposes. There are many techniques that have been utilized to enhance the heat transfer performance of the shell and tube heat exchangers. Air bubble injection is one of the promising and inexpensive techniques that can create turbulence in the fluids resulting in to enhancem...

Recent droughts in the midwestern United States threaten to cause global catastrophe driven by a speculator amplified food price bubble. Here we show the effect of speculators on food prices using a validated quantitative model that accurately describes historical food prices. During the last six years, high and fluctuating food prices have lead to widespread hunger and social unrest. While the...

Creative destruction not only involves bringing new technology to market, it imposes higher risk on the future of existing assets. We contrast the asset pricing implications of creative destruction in a setting in which non-cooperative agents compete for market share with a socially optimal benchmark (i.e., a one agent case). Compared to the one-agent case, non-cooperative behavior leads to ove...

Bubble point pressure is an important parameter in equilibrium calculations of reservoir fluids and having other applications in reservoir engineering. In this work, an artificial neural network (ANN) and a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) have been used to predict the bubble point pressure of reservoir fluids. Also, the accuracy of the models have been compared to two-equation stat...

bubble columns are gas- liquid contactors that are widely used in chemical and bio- chemical industries. high mixing that result in high heat and mass transfer rates are amongst their advantages. heat transfer in a bubble column having a bundle of heaters investigated and the variation of heat transfer coefficient with variation in heaters pitch to diameter ratios in a bundle of heaters reporte...
