In filling lines equipped with membrane separation devices in the form of filters energy, consumption is only one important working parameters, other being sustainable filter performance terms efficiency. As line typically a valve, intermittent operation an its use. Whereas overall energy filtration process governed by continuous mode, characterised opening/closing contributes most to problems ...

PCCI engines can reduce NOx and PM emissions simultaneously without sacrificing thermal efficiency, but a low combustion temperature resulting from early fuel injection, and ignition occurring prior to TDC, can cause higher THC and CO emissions and fuel consumption. In conclusion, it was found that the PCCI combustion achieved by the 2-stage injection strategy with optimized calibration factors...

nowadays, due to increasing the complexity of ic engines, calibration task becomes more severe and the need to use surrogate models for investigating of the engine behavior arises. accordingly, many black box modeling approaches have been used in this context among which network based models are of the most powerful approaches thanks to their flexible structures. in this paper four network base...

A model based control scheme is designed to regu late the cylinder air charge of a camless multicylinder engine for unthrottled operation The controller con sists of a feedforward and an adaptive feedback scheme based on a control oriented model of the breathing process of an engine equipped with electro hydraulic springless valve train The nonlinear control scheme is designed to achieve cylind...

This case report was an attempt to present the importance of diagnostic echocardiography and closure of a patent foramen ovale in carcinoid heart disease. Herein, we present a case of a 48-year-old woman with a carcinoid metastasis presenting with tricuspid regurgitation, pulmonic stenosis, patent foramen ovale, and borderline left ventricular ejection fraction on an echocardiogram. Surgical in...

In water supply systems, One of the most important components as safety unit and the current controller (Switching flow and regulate the amount of flow) used in the arrangement of lines of water. In this study, according to multiple ponds in Tanguiyeh dam water pipeline to industrial and mining company Gol Gohar Sirjan Butterfly valve used in these ponds using Fluent software simulation has bee...

Recently, cavitation on the surface of mechanical heart valves has been studied as a cause of fractures occurring in implanted mechanical heart valves. The cause of cavitation in mechanical heart valves was investigated using the 25 mm Medtronic Hall valve and the 23 mm Omnicarbon valve. Closing of these valves in the mitral position was simulated in an electrohydraulic totally artificial heart...
