In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(18)H(20)N(2)O(5), there are two crystallographic independent mol-ecules. Both mol-ecules are twisted; the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 7.2 (5)° in one mol-ecule, whereas it is 85.9 (4)° in the other. Of the three meth-oxy groups in the 3,4,5-trimeth-oxy-phenyl unit, two meth-oxy groups at meta positions are approximately coplana...

Single-phase heat transfer and pressure drop tests were conducted in a tube with two types of twisted tapes. Each tape had exactly similar physical parameters made the same material except that each an opposite twist resulted clockwise anticlockwise flow swirl, i.e., left turn right turn, respectively. type ratio 4 5.5 on 180° twist. The tapes tested tube-in-tube exchanger having 2 m length. in...

The self-assembly of the macrophage-activating lipopeptide MALP-2 in aqueous solution has been investigated and is compared to that of the constituent peptide GNNDESNISFKEK. MALP-2 is a toll-like receptor agonist lipopeptide with diverse potential biomedical applications and its self-assembly has not previously been examined. It is found to self-assemble, above a critical aggregation concentrat...

The enzymatic cleavage of a peptide amphiphile (PA) is investigated. The self-assembly of the cleaved products is distinct from that of the PA substrate. The PA C16-KKFFVLK is cleaved by α-chymotrypsin at two sites leading to products C16-KKF with FVLK and C16-KKFF with VLK. The PA C16-KKFFVLK forms nanotubes and helical ribbons at room temperature. Both PAs C16-KKF and C16-KKFF corresponding t...

In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C(12)H(11)ClN(4)O(4), the pyrazole ring is coplanar with the amino and ethoxy-carbonyl groups within 0.026 (2) and 0.105 (2) Å, respectively. The C(6) ring of the 4-chloro-2-nitro-phenyl group is twisted by 53.58 (4)° relative to the plane of the pyrazole ring. The planar structure of the pyrazole ring is stabilized by an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bo...

This article presents the application of machine learning (ML) algorithms in modeling heat transfer correlations (e.g., Nusselt number and friction factor) for a exchanger with twisted tape inserts. The experimental data at different Reynolds numbers (Re), twist ratio (t), percentage perforation (p), varied tapes (n) were used correlation modeling. Three ML algorithms: polynomial regression (PR...

for continues production if field crops in arid and semi arid regions of the world, such as iran, beside of using of drought resistant varieties, water management must also be considered. in this context, the use of tape drip irrigation system could reduce the amount of irrigation water consumption. this study, was conducted to determine the best sowing pattern of sugar beet under type drip irr...
