in this paper, the temperature distribution around a moving heat source had been investigated including the phase change and non phase change . in non-phase change state, the governing equation was converted to finite difference equation by finite volume method and the equation was solved by alternating direction implicit method. this method was unconditionally stable . in phase change state, t...

The method of matched asymptotic expansions, which has been used in previous studies of steady natural convection flow, is extended here to transient natural convection flow at high Prandtl number (Pr). Second-order expansion solutions, valid for large Prandtl numbers, are presented for the transient natural convection flow near a vertical surface which undergoes a step change in temperature. T...

Properties of dense nucleon matter and the structure of neutron stars are studied using variational chain summation methods and the new Argonne v18 two-nucleon interaction, which provides an excellent fit to all of the nucleonnucleon scattering data in the Nijmegen data base. The neutron star gravitational mass limit obtained with this interaction is 1.67M⊙ . Boost corrections to the two-nucleo...

diffusivity equation commonly used for pressure distribution prediction in porous media results from substituting equation of state and continuity equation in navier-stokes momentum equation. from mathematical point of view this equation format shows infinite propagation speed for pressure pulse through porous media, which is physically impossible. this issue may caused by numerous assumptions ...

An optical system has been redesigned and used to measure detonation velocity as a function of condensed explosive density for RDX, HMX, PETN. These measurements are then used to determine and fine tune parameters appearing in the BKW (Beker-Kistiakowsky-Wilson) equation of state for gases at extremely high pressures. Steady state form of conservation equations along with the BKW state equation...

The purpose of this paper was to review and report the recent advances and progress that have been achieved on the fourteen year old PFGC equation of state. This paper will also discuss the good (pros) and the bad (cons) of this equation of state. Emphasis will be made on the following categories:A. Prediction of the pure component PVT properties1. Hydrocarbons in particular n-alkanes2. Selecte...

in this work, we have calculated the joule-thomson inversion curve of two important associating fluids, namely water and methanol, from the saft equation of state. comparisons with the available experimental data, for water and methanol indicate that this molecular based equation of state gives good prediction of the low temperature branch; but, unfortunately, due to lack of isenthalpic data fo...
