this paper presents results of a numerical study of mixed convection and entropy generation of cu–water nanofluid in a square ventilating cavity at different inclination angles. except a piece of bottom wall with a uniform heat flux, all of the cavity walls are insulated. the inlet port is placed at the bottom of the left wall and the outlet port is positioned at the top of the right wall. entr...

Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) is one of major modules of power system planning studies, normally performed for the nex 10-30 years horizon. The current industrial practices are to find the generation requirements based on a&#10&#10nodal analysis. In this way, the allocations are not determined and subequent studies are required to find the exact locations &#10 which as decomposed from the...

edaravone, an antioxidant and radical scavenger, showed protective effects against oxidative stress-like condition. paraquat (pq) is a toxic herbicide considerable evidence suggests that oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction contribute to pq toxicity. in this study, protective effect of edaravone against pq induced toxicity and reactive oxygen species (ros) generation in a549 cells and...

This research studies the generation gap among the students at Andimeshk Islamic Azad University. More than 305 people were chosen by Cochran Formula in the study. The dependent variable was divided to four dimensions social, cultural, political and economic. The obtained mean of the study shows there is a meaningful difference between students and their parents (fathers and mothers). It also s...

flow in the first two-stage of v 94.2 gas turbine is simulated numerically. in this turbine, the second stator is clocked relative to the first stator to different positions. steady-state analysis was carried out by varying the circumferential relative position of the consecutive stator vanes to study the effects of the clocking on turbine performance. a density based compressible inviscid flow...

nowadays, energy plays an important role in the economic and community development of country. consequently, performance analysis of energy systems is one of the effective methods being used to prevent waste of energy resources. among the different power generation technologies, steam power plants make a significant contribution to power generation in iran, with a share of 47 % of electricity g...

Entropy generation in an unsteady hydromagnetic Couette flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid between two infinite horizontal parallel plates in a rotating system have been analyzed. Both the lower and upper plates of the channel are subjected to asymmetric convective heat exchange with the ambient following the Newton's law of cooling. A numerical solution for governin...
