dense medium cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. it is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in dmcs complex. in this article the flow pattern simulation of dmc is performed with computational fluid dynamics and fluent...

crop simulation models are mathematical representations of plant growth processes as influenced by interactions among genotype, environment and crop management. using crop simulation models can be an efficient complement to experimental research. models are being used to understand the response of crops to possible changes in crop, cultural management and environmental variables.while there are...

using crop simulation models is an efficient complement to experimental research. crop models can also be helpful with respect to decision-making in sustainable farming system. this study was done to estimate genetic coefficients and evaluate performanced dssat in prediction of development, growth and yield in wheat. data from various field experiments for four wheat cultivars koohdasht, shirou...

abstract one of the major factors on the amount of water resources is river flow which is so dependent to the hydrologic and meteorologic phenomena. simulation and forecasting of river flow makes the decision maker capable to effectively manage the water resources projects. so, simulation and forecasting models such as artificial neural networks (anns) are commonly used for simulation and predi...

simulation of rough rice drying is one of the proper methods for predicting moisture distribution in the product, and throughout the process of drying. the drying process must be well understood and controlled so that design guidelines which reduce or minimize drying damage to rough rice can be established and improved. therefore, an accurate understanding and description of the drying mechanis...

car-following models are among the most important components of micro traffic flow simulation which is studiedby transportation experts to evaluate new applications of intelligent transportation systems. until now, several carfollowingmodels have been proposed. an obvious disadvantage of the former models is the great number of parameterswhich are difficult to calibrate. in this paper, a car-fo...

the purpose of this paper is to studying nonlinear k-ε turbulence models and its advantages in internal combustion engines, since the standard k-ε model is incapable of representing the anisotropy of turbulence intensities and fails to express the reynolds stresses adequately in rotating flows. therefore, this model is not only incapable of expressing the anisotropy of turbulence in an engine c...
