aloe vera is a plant of the liliaceae family with a brilliant history in disease treatment. in addition to the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and health care industries, this plant is used in food industry due to having various nutrients such as amino acids and various vitamins or anti-bacterial compounds. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of variables such as temperature, tim...

Abstract This work expands findings about the dominant heat transfer mechanisms in argon and helium arcs at atmospheric pressure for monoatomic (Ar, He, 50% Ar–50% He), diatomic (air, $${\hbox{N}}_{2}$$ N 2 , $${\hbox{O}}_{2}$$ O $${\hbox{F}...

The density and viscosity of carbonated aqueous 35wt% methyldiethanolamine solution were experimentally measured accompanied with the solubility of CO2 at temperatures from (303.15 to 363.15) K and pressures up to 0.8 MPa using the new setup developed in our laboratory.It was observed that both density and viscosity of mixtures decrease by increasing temperature and incr...

In the present work, the influences of temperature, solvent concentration and ultrasonic irradiation time were numerically analyzed on viscosity reduction of residue fuel oil (RFO). Ultrasonic irradiation was applied at power of 280 W and low frequency of 24 kHz. The main feature of this research is prediction and optimization of the kinematic viscosity data. The measured results of eighty-four...

The effect of temperature (25, 40, 55 and 70°C) and weight fraction of MWCNTs (0.125, 0.25 and 0.5 %wt) on the viscosity of nanofluids containing pristine and functionalized MWCNTs have been investigated. For this purpose, all of the measurements were carried out in triplicate and were analyzed using two factors completely randomized design and comparison of data means is carried out with Dunca...

Dynamics of stationary axisymmetric configuration of the viscous accreting fluids surrounding a non-rotating compact object in final stages of accretion flow is presented here. For the special case of thin disk approximation, the relativistic fluid equations ignoring self-gravity of the disk are derived in Schwarzschild geometry. For two different state equations, two sets of self-consistent an...

In this paper, the measurement of the viscosity of ZnO in ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, mixture of ethylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight), and a mixture of propylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight) and the thermal conductivity in ethylene glycol and propylene glycol as base fluids in the range of temperature from 25 ºC to 60 ºC are investigated. The results indicate that as the tem...

Radial gas flows induced by viscosity may significantly redistribute the gas component in galactic disks. On the condition that the timescale of the viscous transport is comparable to the star formation timescale, this process naturally explains the observed exponential stellar density profiles in disks independent of the density profiles of the initial disks. We discuss models for the chemical...

rheological characteristics of al2o3, cuo and tio2 nano particles were investigated in oil asthe base fluid at 1 and 2 wt.%. constitutive relations for non-newtonian fluid were discussedbased on the power-law model. measured viscosities of each nanofluid were used to evaluatethe power-law and consistency index. results indicated that the nanofluid viscosity decreasedby increasing the concentrat...
