in this present study, volume of fluid method in openfoam open source cfd package will be extended to consider phase change phenomena with modified model due to condensation and boiling processes. this model is suitable for the case in which both unsaturated phase and saturated phase are present and for beginning boiling and condensation process needn't initial interface. both phases (liqu...

background and objective: reduced fat cheese often exhibits poor sensory quality due to the reduction of fat, which plays a critical role in flavor and texture. therefore, there is the challenge to produce a reduced fat cheese with improved sensory attributes and texture that is also comparable to its full-fat counterpart. the main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of dif...

objectives: knowledge about gender differences in intra-limb coordination during walking provides insight into the adaptability of central nervous system for controlling gait in older adults. we assessed the variability and phase dynamic of the intra-limb coordination in older men and women during walking. methods: twenty two older people, 11 female and 11 male, participated in this study. they...

in this paper we consider a nonlinear two-phase stefan problem in one-dimensional space. the problem is mapped into a nonlinear volterra integral equation for the free boundary.

An experimental study of the phase inversion behavior of liquid-liquid dispersion has been conducted in a spray extraction column for systems of toluene / water, n-hexane/water, CCl4/water, toluene /water + glycerol (25 % wt), toluene + CCl4 (25 % wt) / water and toluene / acetic acid (5 % wt)/water. The effects of physical properties, mass transfer and column geometry...

In this paper, a new topology is proposed for three-phase to single-phase matrix converters, where more voltage levels are produced in the output in comparison with the conventional topologies. In addition, a new control method based on minimum error between the generated and the desired output voltages is proposed for three-phase to single-phase matrix converters. In the proposed control metho...

the mechanism and the parameters affecting the matrix-fibril morphology in melt spun polyblend fibers are discussed. the properties of polymeric blends depend considerably on their final morphologies. blending of two miscible polymers, normally gives rise to formation of a single-phase morphology while blending of two immiscible polymers can create a two or three (in case of using compatibilize...

In this paper, we studied effect of different parameters including density, viscosity, interfacial tension and solute transfer concentration on phase inversion hold-up. The results showed that change in phase density ratio had no effect on phase inversion hold-up. It also disclosed that the phase viscosity ratio was the most effective parameter affecting phase inversion hold-up and each phase h...
