in this present study, volume of fluid method in openfoam open source cfd package will be extended to consider phase change phenomena with modified model due to condensation and boiling processes. this model is suitable for the case in which both unsaturated phase and saturated phase are present and for beginning boiling and condensation process needn't initial interface. both phases (liqu...

at present study the flow and heat transfer of non-newtonian nanofluid, aqueous solution of carboxymethyl cellulose-aluminum oxide with different volume fractions of nano particles in a two dimensional microtube is simulated for the first time. slip velocity and temperature jump boundary conditions are also considered along the microtube walls. the achieved results accuracy is investigated by c...

introduction: in the current study, protective effect of natural honey applied during ischemia/reperfusion (i/r) was studied on infarct size in ischemic heartheart. methods: ischemic hearthearts (n=8 per group) were mounted on a langendorff apparatus at constant pressure then subjected to 30 min regional ischemia followed by 120 min reperfusion. in control group, the hearts were perfused by a m...

the study was conducted to evaluate the effect of seed priming on root growth of two barley cultivars (hordeum vulgare l.) under salinity stress was performed in phytogel. the treatments included two cultivars of barely (yusuf and maquie), levels of seed priming (control, hydro-priming and priming with 4.35 g l-1 of urea) and four levels of nacl salinity stress (0, 0.2, 0.3 m). the experiment w...
