1024x768 normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background and objective: numerical modeling of biological structures would be very helpful tool to analyze hundreds of human body phenomena and also diseases diagnosis. one physiologic phenomenon is blood circulatory system and heart hemodynamic performance that can be simulated by utilizing lumped method. in this study, we can predict hem...

The objective of this study is to present a mathematical modeling and solution approach for the drying process of spheroidal solids with the application of microwave in capillary porous media based on the Luikov equations, composed of a system of linear and coupled partial differential equations arising from the energy, mass and pressure balances inside the solid matrix. Additionally, the power...

In order to obtain the best performance of the solar air heaters, it is necessary to find optimum performance conditions. The aim of this research paper is to achieve optimum conditions, by comparing single and double pass solar air heaters. Also, a brief review study of various related research works of all scenarios for a single and double pass and packed bed (including particle technologies)...

Utilization of wind turbines as economic and green production units, poses new challenges to the power system planners, mainly due to the stochastic nature of the wind, adding a new source of uncertainty to the power system. Different types of distribution and correlation between this random variable and the system load makes conventional method inappropriate for modeling such a correlation. In...

Building information modeling can help in predicting the energy efficiency in future based on dynamic patterns obtained by visualization of data. The aim of this study was to investigate the effective parameters of energy consumption using BIM technology which can evaluate the buildings energy performance. First, three forms of general states in the building were modeled to evaluate the propose...
