The use of natural gas as an alternative fuel, in recent decades has been proposed. Good combustion properties and cats less than it could be the perfect choice for the next generation. Simulation models can be of great help engine designers. Simulation models to reduce the time and costs for the development of new engines as well as in identifying the technical value that need special attentio...

In this study, optimization of Qeshm power and water desalting cogeneration plant has been investigated. The objective functions are related to maximizing exergetic efficiency and minimization of exergoeconomic and exergoenvironmental parameters. Also, the integration of RO desalination with the existing plant has been evaluated based on these analyses. This plant includes two MAPNA 25 MW gas t...

The concept of disjoining pressure, developed from thermodynamic and hydrodynamic analysis, has been widely used as a means of modeling the liquid-solid molecular force interactions in an ultra-thin liquid film on a solid surface. In particular, this approach has been extensively used in models of thin film transport in passages in micro evaporators and micro heat pipes. In this investigation, ...
