the oxidative coupling of methane (ocm) performance over na-w-mn/sio2 at elevated pressures has been simulated by adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) using reaction data gathered in an isothermal fixed bed microreactor. in the designed neuro fuzzy models, three important parameters such as methane to oxygen ratio, gas hourly space velocity (ghsv), and reaction temperature were conside...

Boiling points have been determined at 101.33 kPa for the binary mixtures of sulfolane + o-xylene, sulfolane + m-xylene, sulfolane+p-xylene, sulfolane+ethylbenzene and sulfolane+1,2,4-trimethylbenzene. Calculations of the non-ideality of the vapor phase were made with the second virial coefficients evaluated from the Hayden–O’Connell method. The binary parameters for five activity coefficient m...

background heat is a harmful factor in workplaces that causes physiologic and cognitive changes in workers. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cooling vest on heat strain and reaction time while wearing chemical-biological-nuclear protective clothes. methods twelve male students with mean age of 25 ± 2 and body mass index (bmi) of 23 ± 1.5 were recruited in th...

Nomenclature a = stoichiometric coefficient av = surface-to-volume ratio C;, Cb; = surface and bulk concentration, vol % Da = Damkohler number Eif R = activation energy, K F = steady-state function h = heat-transfer coefficient K, = adsorption equilibrium coefficient k, k0 = reaction rate constant and preexponential factor, respectively kc = mass-transfer coefficient l = apparent reaction order...

A novel biosensor based on carbon nanofibers/diamine oxidase was prepared by modification of screen-printing electrodes. The enzyme diamine oxidase was immobilized onto the carbon nanofibers modified carbon screen-printed electrodes by drop and dry method followed by cross-linking reaction with glutaraldehyde. The presence of norepinephrine in analyzed samples was correlated to increasing of ca...

We present a new family of estimators of the Weibull tail-coefficient. The Weibull tail-coefficient is defined as the regular variation coefficient of the inverse failure rate function. Our estimators are based on a linear combination of log-spacings of the upper order statistics. Their asymptotic normality is established and illustrated for two particular cases of estimators in this family. Th...
