A boundary layer analysis is presented for the mixed convection past a vertical plate in a porous medium saturated with a nanofluid in the presence of variable viscosity effect. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a set of similar equations and solved numerically by an efficient, implicit, iterative, finite-difference method. A parametric study illustrating the inf...

Temperature control during the cutting process with different parameters such as cutting velocity and applying water cooling is essential to decrease the cutting force, increase the life of the cutting tool and decrease the machined surface temperature of work-piece. In this research, the temperature of machined surface and the chip-tool interface in orthogonal cutting process of Ti-6Al-4V were...

land surface temperature (lst) is an important factor in global change studies. the information about lst has an important role in the range of issues and themes in earth sciences such as global environment change, human-environment interaction and more specifically to urban climatology. this research has been undertaken to analyze the potential of multispectral satellite data for retrieving th...

Azobenzene and its derivatives can undergo reversible trans-cis isomerizations when irradiated with light, making them potential candidates for optically sensitive materials and devices. The adsorption and diffusion of azobenzene on the Cu(110) surface was investigated with a variable-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. The trans-isomer was observed and found to occupy two adsorption geo...

The evolution and equilibrium morphology of Si~100! with 0.1 monolayer of adsorbed Cl was studied at 700 K with variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. Chlorine caused surface roughening with monolayer pits and regrowth islands. The aspect ratio of these features then increased with their size because of the surface-stress anisotropy. By analyzing the equilibrium feature shape as a ...

The effect of variable chemical reaction on heat and mass transfer characteristics over unsteady stretching surface embedded in a porus medium is studied. The governing time dependent boundary layer equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations containing chemical reaction parameter, unsteadiness parameter, Prandtl number and Schmidt number. These equations have been transforme...

Emissivity mapping of the Earth’s surface is the prerequisite to thermal remote sensing. A precise determinationof a surface's temperature is dependent upon the availability of precise emissivity data for that surface. The presentstudy area is a part of sugarcane plantation fields in the west part of Khuzestan province. In this work, TemperatureEmissivity Separation algorithm (TES) was applied ...
