this paper presents the effect of high viscosity oil and two-phase foamy-oil flow on the performance of a single stage centrifugal pump. as a part of this, the applicability of a pipe viscometer to determine the foamy oil viscosity is investigated. unlike previous studies, a sealed fluid tank is used in a closed flow loop to allow conditioning the two-phase mixture to create foamy-oil. furtherm...

In this paper, we initiate the study of holographic renormalization group flows acting on the metric of four-manifolds. In particular, we derive a set of equations which govern the evolution of a generic Kähler four-manifold along the renormalization group flow in sevendimensional gauged supergravity. The physical eleven-dimensional M-theory setup is given by a stack of M5-branes wrapping a cal...

This paper reported an experimental research of steady-state heat transfer behaviour of a gas flowing through a fixed bed under the different operating conditions. Studies had been carried out in a fixed-bed packed methanol synthesis catalyst percolated by air at appropriate flow rate. Both radial and axial direction temperature distribution had been investigated under the different operating c...

in this paper, modeling and optimization of fischer-tropsch synthesis is considered in a fixed-bed catalytic reactor using an industrial fe-cu-k catalyst. a one dimensional pseudo-homogenous plug flow model without axial dispersion is developed for converting syngas to heavy hydrocarbons. the effects of temperature, pressure, h2 to co ratio in feed stream, and co molar flow on the mass flow rat...

Characteristics and behavior of the flow in hydraulic structures, a complex phenomenon that isimperative to use software that will beto be study.Gabiony stepped spillway is a simple hydraulicstructures to control erosion downstream of dams, and, depreciation of structures is used. Roughstairway consisting of overflow from the stairs near the crest of the weir is started and continues tohave a l...
