in this research, effect of the number of nodular graphite particles, as an important characteristic of ductile cast irons, on the distribution of martensite in dual-phase ductile iron has been studied. ductile iron samples were produced by step casting and the samples were then annealed in order to achieve a fully ferritic structure. a special heat treatment was conducted to produce dual matri...

Distribution functions of relative velocities among particles in a vibrated bed of powder are studied both numerically and theoretically. In the solid phase where granular particles remain near their local stable states, the probability distribution is Gaussian. On the other hand, in the fluidized phase, where the particles can exchange their positions, the distribution clearly deviates from Ga...

Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) are attracting significant interest for pervaporation and gas separation applications. To better comprehend the impact of filler particles within polymer matrices, the species permeation mass transport was theoretically studied by numerical simulation using finite differences. The Fick’s second law of diffusion was solved for a three-dimensional MMM to obtain the c...

Turbulent mixed convection of a nanofluid (water/Al2O3, Φ=.02) has been studied numerically. Two-phase mixture model has been used to investigate the effects of nanoparticles mean diameter on the flow parameters. Nanoparticles distribution at the tube cross section shows that the particles are uniformly dispersed. The non-uniformity of the particles distribution occurs in the case of large nano...

Distribution functions of relative velocities among particles in a vibrated bed of powder are studied both numerically and theoretically. In the solid phase where granular particles remain near their local stable states, the probability distribution is Gaussian. On the other hand, in the uidized phase, where the particles can exchange their positions, the distribution clearly deviates from Gaus...

Submersible mixers are widely used in the sewage treatment process various fields, such as agriculture and industry. They mainly responsible for pushing flow mixing activated sludge particles a pool. Based on CFD-DEM coupling method under Euler–Lagrange framework, solid–liquid two-phase of submersible mixer was simulated this paper, motion characteristics distribution laws pool were studied axi...

The application of Gas-Liquid-solid circulating fluidized beds (GLSCBE) has increased recently in chemical, petrochemical and biochemical industries. Electrical Resistance Tomography (ERT) and optical fibre probe were applied to investigate local phase holdups distribution. Since ERT is applicable only to conductive phase(s), e.g. liquid phase in this study, optical fibre probe was employed sim...

the purpose of this study is numerical modeling of temperature variation of phases in a two phase regime in fluidized bed dryers including particles belonging to group d of geldart classification. the mass transfer between phases is not taken into consideration in this modeling which has been assumed in three- dimensional, unsteady, and two-phase regime.to verify the modeling we consider the do...
