The performance of the electric submersible pump (ESP) significantly affected by Gas Void Fraction (GVF). Thus, using of a Rotary Gas Separator (RGS) is a suitable solution for this issue. The performance of the RGS is function of different parameters such as geometry of impeller, rotating speed, boundary conditions, media viscosity and GVF. In this study, the influences of GVF, viscosity, ...

Numerical analysis for mixed lubrication has been performed in order to investigate the characteristics of sliding surface vane a rotary compressor. The modified Reynolds equation and elastic contact equation, considering roughness, are solved as coupled problem. Using this analysis, investigated by parameter survey on design parameters such vane-slot length clearance between vaneslot. It is fo...

Example 1: The tree in Figure 1(a) has 26 vertices in which v1 is a centroid. The vertex v1 is a minimal 1/2-separator. As shown in (b), each branch contains no more than 13 vertices. But v1, or even the edge (v1, v2), is not a 1/3-separator because there exists a subtree whose number of vertices is nine, which is greater than 26/3. The path between v2 and v3 is a minimal 1/3-separator (Frame (...

It has been suggested that renin can generate angiotensin I1 at a local vascular level (Thurston & Swales, 1974). For this to occur, angiotensin converting enzyme must also be present. This enzyme occurs predominantly in the vascular bed of the lungs of animals (Vane, 1974), but it has also been shown to occur in the arterial bed of the hind limb of the dog (Aiken & Vane, 1972) and sheep (Osbor...

Male common snipe (Capella gallinago gallinago) produce a 'drumming' sound with their outer tail feathers during their mating dives, but little is known about how this is achieved. We investigated the movements and sound producing capabilities of the outer tail feathers. Using a wind tunnel, we compared observations of the frequencies of sound produced with the predictions from aerodynamic theo...
