The present work is an attempt to model, analyze, and control the flow at the base of an abruptly expanded circular duct by using design of experiments (DOE) and response surface methodology (RSM). Tiny-jets in the form of orifice were positioned at an interval of 900, 6.5 mm from the primary axis of the main jet of the nozzle. Experiments were conducted to measure two responses namely, base pr...

A thermosyphon is an efficient heat transfer device, which transports heat using gravity for the evaporation and condensation of the working fluid. In the present study the Box-Benhnken (BBD) design approach was chosen for the Two-Phase Closed Thermosyphon (TPCT) with CeO2 nanofluid using 0.1% volume of Nanofluid with surfactant of ethylene glycol. The experiment resulted in identifying the opt...

BACKGROUND The process of meat industry produces in a large amount of wastewater that contains high levels of colour and chemical oxygen demand (COD). So they must be pretreated before their discharge into the ecological system. METHODS In this paper, enzymatic catalysis (EC) was adopted to treat the meat wastewater. RESULTS Box-Behnken design (BBD), an experimental design for response surf...

this paper discusses the use of box behnken design (bbd) approach to plan the experiments for turning the yield of cvd, thickness and layer number of graphene sheets with an overall objective of optimizing the process to provide higher graphene production volume, fewer layers and thinness structure of graphene. bbd is having the maximum efficiency for an experiment involving four factors such a...

Subcritical water extraction (SWE) of Inonotus Obliquus polysaccharides (IOP) was investigated using response surface methodology (RSM) with a design by Box–Behnken design (BBD). Results showed that the optimum SWE conditions for IOP production were as follows: extraction temperature 194°C, residence time 5.36 min and liquidsolid ratio 53 mL/g, yielding 168.80 ± 0.59 mg/g of IOP, which was in c...

The aim of the study was to identify new sources of substrate from agro-industrial waste for protease production using Bacillus sp., a local bacteria isolated from an agro-waste dumping site. The strain was identified as Bacillus sp. BT MASC 3 by 16S rRNA sequence followed by phylogenic analysis. Response surface methodology-based Box-Behnken design (BBD) was used to optimize the variables such...

The objective of this study was to use Box-Behnken design (BBD) to investigate the influence of formulation variables on the properties of heparin-loaded poly(lactic-coglycolic acid) (PLGA)-polymethacrylate-RLPO (E-RLPO) nanoparticles (NP) in terms of mean diameter (as size) and drug encapsulation efficiency. The NPs were prepared by the double emulsion solvent evaporation method. The independe...

As a potential intermediary feedstock, succinic acid takes an important place in bulk chemical productions. For the first time, a method combining Plackett-Burman design (PBD), steepest ascent method (SA), and Box-Behnken design (BBD) was developed to optimize Actinobacillus succinogenes ATCC 55618 fermentation medium. First, glucose, yeast extract, and MgCO(3) were identified to be key medium ...

The small blind internal thread (SBIT) plays a very important role to firmly fastening some functional components on the cover of 3C electronic products. was made in hole using fluteless forming tap (FFT) without producing chips. However, four geometric parameters FFT (tool width (W), tooth root diameter (D2), front-end (Df), and angle (?)) will affect filling rate (f) minimum torque (T) tappin...
