In this work both experimental and numerical analysis are carried out to investigate the effect of solar radiation on the cabin air temperature of Maruti Suzuki Celerio car parked for 90 min under solar load condition. The experimental and numerical analysis encompasses on temperature increment of air at various locations ins...

in the present study, the potential of a bacterial consortium of enterobacter cloacae and pseudomonas sp. (ercppi-2) for microbial enhanced oil recovery was investigated. various mechanisms of enhanced oil recovery (eor) as a result of using ercppi-2 and its metabolic products were studied in detail. the obtained results showed that under simulated reservoir conditions, interfacial tension redu...

It is a long time that the Simulated Annealing (SA) procedure has been introduced as a model-free optimization for solving NP-hard problems. Improvements from the standard SA in the recent decade mostly concentrate on combining its original algorithm with some heuristic methods. These modifications are rarely happened to the initial condition selection methods from which the annealing schedules...

the physiological process of germination depends on several environmental factors such as temperature, water potential, light, nutrients and smoke. water and temperature are determinant factors for seed germination. both factors can, separately or jointly, affect the germination percentage and germination rate. the effect of temperature on germination and water potential on germination canoften...

Forecasting of temperature and precipitation can be efficiently used in decision making and optimal use of water resources. Studies in Iran have indicated a significant increase in annual temperature. This issue should be further researched in the Ahvaz region because it is the population hub in the southwest of Iran and the pole of irrigation networks and traditional agricultural land ...

An Agilent Simulated Distillation (SimDis) system is described for characterizing petroleum fractions for quality control and monitoring of refinery feedstocks and products. The system uses a 6890N gas chromatograph (GC) equipped with a high temperature programmable temperature vaporizer (HT PTV) inlet designed specifically for simulated distillation analysis. A SimDis software program that cou...
