A novel graphical method of analysing continuous membrane separation systems has been developed. The method is applicable to all counterand co-current membrane modules – single-stage, cascades, and membrane columns. All configurations can be broken down into “column sections”, no matter how complex the arrangement. Each column section, which resembles a typical single-stage separator, is modell...

Abstract A computational fluid dynamics simulation is done for comparative study from the pumping effect on four surfaces of stirred tank. The flow field generated by one-stage and bi-stage six-bladed Rushton turbine in unbaffled square tank was studied. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation with steady-state multi-reference frame approach (MRF) used to simulate hydrodynamic turbulent viscos...

Lagrangian trajectories obtained through 3D Particle Tracking Velocimetry (3D-PTV) measurements have been used to visualize the flow field of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in a flat-bottomed vessel. The vessel, diameter T=180 mm, was equipped with 6-blade Rushton turbine D=T/3 four baffles width b=T/10. experiments were carried out transitional regime (73≤Re≤1,257). velocities acceleration...

The purpose of this article is to provide mathematical insights into the results of some Monte Carlo simulations published by Tolhurst and colleagues (Clatworthy, Chirimuuta, Lauritzen, & Tolhurst, 2003; Chirimuuta & Tolhurst, 2005a). In these simulations, the contrast of a visual stimulus was encoded by a model spiking neuron or a set of such neurons. The mean spike count of each neuron was gi...

abstract strawberry is one of the most important fruit crops in the world. in this study, effect of different plant densities were studied on yield and fruit quality of strawberry 'selva' in greenhouse and laboratories of university college of agriculture and natural resources during 2002-2003. uniform stolens of strawberry were planted in holes of plastic column according to factorial in compl...

canister desorption is a widely used technique to measure the gas content of coal. the gas content data, when normalized to volume/weight and multiplied by coal seam mass, is used to estimate the gas in place in an area around the cored hole. however, the gas content and the percentage of each constituent are likely to be influenced by trapped air in the canister at the time of the coal enclosu...
