In this study an analytical model for open loop pulsating heat pipes (PHPs) is presented. The model predicts the effect of different parameters such as evaporator temperature, length of evaporator, filling ratio, number of turn and tube diameter on PHP's performance. The governing equations in two phase flow including mass, momentum and energy equations are solved for both one dimensional liqu...

crystalline antimony sulfide (sb2s3) with nanorods morphology was successfully prepared via hydrothermal method by the reaction of elemental sulfur, antimony and iodine as starting materials with high yield at 180°c for 24h.using oxidation reagents like iodine as an initiator of redox reaction to prepare sb2s3 is reported for first time. crystal growth of sb2s3 was done by increasing reaction t...

Two different propagation procedures including aeroponics and soil systems were compared for the minitubers production in potato. The minitubers were evaluated for several quality characters. The plant materials were from three cultivars, Agria, Marfona and Savalan. The plantlets were grown in aeroponics and soil production systems at a plant density of 100 plants per m-2 and stem length, root ...

Celiac disease (CD) is currently considerably underdiagnosed, setting the need for developing tools to select patients with probability of CD, who warrant further testing. Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) has been shown in previous studies to be a sensitive predictor for CD, but it lacks specificity. Splenic hypotrophy is also noted frequently in celiac patients. Our aim was to evaluate ...

A modification has been done in the normal injection hole of 35◦, by injecting the cold fluid at different angles(compound angle) in lateral direction, providing a significant change in the shape of holes which later we found in our numerical investigation giving good quality of effectiveness in cooling. Different L/D ratios are also studied for each compound angle. The numerical simulation is ...

in this research carbon nanotubes were produced by chemical vapor deposition of acetylene over a mixture of iron and cobalt catalysts supported on nanometric tio2 and the influences of two synthesis parameters: growth temperature and catalyst composition ratio on properties of end-product carbon nanotubes were investigated. the catalytic basis was prepared by wet impregnation method with differ...
