In Paper I we showed that steady line-driven disk wind solutions can exist by using “simple” models that mimic the disk environment. Here I extend the concepts introduced in Paper I and discuss many details of the analysis of the steady/unsteady nature of 1D line-driven winds. This work confirms the results and conclusions of Paper I, and is thus consistent with the steady nature of the 1D stre...

Finding out the optimal sampling positions for measurement of ventilation rates in a naturally ventilated building using tracer gas is a challenge. Affected by the wind and the opening status, the representative positions inside the building may change dynamically at any time. An optimization procedure using the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was conducted. In this method, the concentration...

In this paper, we propose two new methods to create an adaptive Wind Driven Optimization (WDO) algorithm, both of which are shown to outperform the classical WDO method while eliminating the need for fine-tuning the coefficients of the update equations. While the classical WDO offers a simple and efficient metaheuristic optimization algorithm, the coefficients that are inherent to the workings ...

The first theory of wind-driven flow is that of Ekman, who assumed a uniform eddy viscosity and derived the velocity spiral that bears his name. Over the years, observations of wind stress and current have improved to the point that frictional momentum transfer in the upper ocean can be quantified. Observations of velocity spirals are reviewed to address such issues as the vertical structure an...

Detailed photoionization and radiative acceleration of self-similar magnetocentrifugal accretion disk winds are explored. First, a general-purpose hybrid magnetocentrifugal and radiatively-driven wind model is defined. Solutions are then examined to determine how radiative acceleration modifies magnetocentrifugal winds and how those winds can influence radiative driving in Active Galactic Nucle...

the renewable energy resources such as wind power have recently attracted more researchers’ attention. it is mainly due to the aggressive energy consumption, high pollution and cost of fossil fuels. in this era, the future fluctuations of these time series should be predicted to increase the reliability of the power network. in this paper, the dynamic characteristics and short-term predictabili...

Introduction: Methane is one of the most widely used gases in industries with a high flammability potential. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of ventilation systems installed on methane valve pits based on hazardous areas classification. Material and Methods: This study was implemented in a steel industry in Qom Province in 2019. The tools used in this study were a DELTA OHM pitot t...
