Abstract   A new micro combustion concept is described in this work by introducing a new terminology in the micro combustion. The effects of Area to Volume Ratio (AVR) of the micro-combustors were studied to find the best performance of designed micro-combustors. In order to test the feasibility of the designed micro combustors before the actual experiment is conducted, simulation work was perf...

Equal channel angular pressing is the most promising method of severe plastic deformation with the capability of producing ultrafine grained materials. These materials exhibit improved mechanical and physical properties compared with their coarse grained counter parts.The temperature variation in the sample during ECA-pressing is a key factor determining the final microstructure and mechanical ...

Iteration method for simultaneous estimation of vertical profiles of air temperature and water vapor with the high spectral resolution of sounder of AQUA/AIRS data is proposed. Through a sensitivity analysis based on the proposed method for the several atmospheric models simulated by MODTRAN, it is found that the proposed method is superior to the conventional method by 41.4% for air temperatur...

Inefficient use of raw materials in most catalytic processes can be attributed mainly to the deactivation of the catalyst in chemical reactors. In order to achieve efficient use of raw materials, this paper addresses mitigation of deactivation through optimization of inlet temperature-time trajectories. The optimization of temperature profiles in reactors is one of the key problems in the synth...

In this paper we have studied the effect of free convection on the heat transfer and flow through variable porous medium which is bounded by two vertical parallel porous plates. In this study it is assume that free stream velocity oscillates with time about a constant mean. Periodic temperature is considered in the moving plate. Effect of different parameters on mean flow velocity, Transient ve...

The present paper aims at defining a simplified but effective model of a thermal network that links the thermal power generation with the resulting temperature time profile in a heated or refrigerated environment. For this purpose, an equivalent electric circuit is proposed together with an experimental procedure to evaluate its input parameters. The paper also highlights the simplicity of impl...

This study reevaluates the adiabatic temperature profile of Earth's mantle. The global average at 410-km discontinuity is estimated to be 1839 (38) K by comparing globally averaged depths with previously determined phase diagram olivine-wadsleyite transition in system (Mg,Fe)2SiO4 two temperatures. extrapolated shallower and deeper regions using gradient, which from pressure-volume-temperature ...

Water is important to all human and economic activity. Despite its abundant water resources, Malaysia's demand consumption was increased in recent years. This study had been investigating the condition of resources at present. aims identify by examining odour profile temperature intensity. E-Anfun E-nose applied generate a pattern volatile compounds included samples. The optimal correlation dis...
