The effects of using different promoters on hydrotalcite based cobalt (HT-Co) catalyst for FischerTropsch Synthesis was studied in this paper. The HT-Co catalysts were synthesized by using hydrothermal method whereas zinc and zirconium were added separately as promoters, by wetness impregnation method. The main aim of the study is to see the difference in properties of both zinc and zirconium p...

This paper presents UOWD-Sharif team’s approach for XML information retrieval. This approach is an extension of PLIR which is an experimental knowledge-based information retrieval system. This system like PLIR utilizes plausible inferences to first infer the relevance of sentences in XML documents and then propagates the relevance to the other textual units in the document tree. Two approaches ...

Computational fluid dynamic (CFD); Linearized two-dimensional transient flow (LTDT); Polar gridline transformation method. Abstract A novel derivation to transfer an actual domain with circular geometries to the computational domain, which is competent for application to computational fluid dynamics, is derived. Outcome formulas could be employed in cases of gridline transformation in the metho...
