Various numerical boundary condition methods have been proposed to simulate various aspects of the no-slip wall condition using the Lattice Boltzmann Method. In this paper, a new boundary condition scheme is developed to model the no-slip wall condition in the presence of the body force term near the wall which is based on the Bennett extension. The error related to the new model is smaller tha...

This paper reports a CFD modeling study to investigate the hydrogen-air mixture combustion in a micro scale chamber. Nine species with nineteen reversible reactions were considered in the premixed combustion model. The effect of operational and geometrical conditions including; combustor size, wall conductivity, reactant flow rates and hydrogen feed splitting on combustion stabilit...

Aquatics are a source of bioactive compounds that these compounds have different properties such as antimicrobial activity. In this study, antibacterial activity of methanol, chloroform and hexane extracts from body wall, gonad and intestine of sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota was evaluated against Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Bioactive compounds of b...

Abstract The effect of the solid–wall boundary condition on the segregation behavior of a sand ternary mixture differing in size but having the same proportion has been investigated in a gas–solid bubbling fluidized bed. A multi-fluid computational fluid dynamics model incorporating the kinetic theory of granular flow has been used. The mass fraction profiles of the different-sized partic...

 Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental examination of the effect of non-uniform wall temperature on local heat transfer coefficient in a rotating smooth-walled square channel. Three different thermal boundary situations were investigated: (a) even and odd (four) wall uniform temperature, (b) even and odd (four) wall uniform heat flux, and (c) even (leading and trailing) w...

Sungun Copper Mine is located in an area with a high level of seismic hazard. Most recently, the Ahar-Varzeqan earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 on Richter scale occurred on August 11, 2012; at a distance about 40 kilometers away from the mine. Nevertheless, the seismic stability of the final pit wall has not been comprehensively reviewed. In this research, the southwestern wall of the final p...

The purpose of this study is to utilize timber material enhance the in-plane shear strength and deformation capacity a brick wall. proposed strengthening method light-weight easy assemble includes frame, plywood panel, M12 threaded rod with chemical epoxy, hold-down anchor. To evaluate effectiveness reinforced wall, three walls were tested under cyclic horizontal load static compression stress:...

background: nowadays, extensive technological advancements have made it possible to use nanopaints which show exciting properties. in ir iran excessive radon levels (up to 3700 bq m–3) have been reported in homes located in radon prone areas. over the past decades, concerns have been raised about the risk posed by resi- dential radon exposure. objective: this study aims at investigating the eff...
