background & aims of the study: petrochemical industry is an important industry in the economic development of the country that causes employees have exposure with several kinds of contamination. the aim of this study was semi-quantitative assessment of the health risk of occupational exposure to chemical materials and investigation of spirometry indices between employees of petrochemical indus...

The discovery of superconducting materials has led to their use in technological marvels such as magnetic-field sensors in MRI machines, powerful research magnets, short transmission cables, and high-speed trains. Despite such applications, the uses of superconductors are not widespread because they function much below room-temperature, hence the costly cooling. Since the discovery of Cu- and F...

In this study explosive substance [2.4.6] three Nitro Toluene (TNT) was attached with nanostructures of fullerene (C24) and boron nitride nano-cages (B12N12). After that using B3LYP (Becke, three-parameter, Lee-Yang-Parr), a method from density functional theory (DFT), thermodynamic parameters of TNT with foregoing nanostructures, in different conditions of temperature, were computed. To this a...

chemical vapor deposition (cvd) is one of the most popular methods for producing carbon nanotubes (cnts). the growth rate of cnts based on cvd technique is investigated by using a numerical model based on finite volume method. inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as carrier gas enters into a horizontal cvd reactor at atmospheric pressure. in thi...

The current article has investigated unsteady convective flow for MHD non-Newtonian Powell-Eyring fluid embedded porous medium over inclined permeable stretching sheet. We have pondered the thermophoresis parameter, chemical reaction, variable thermal conductivity, Brownian motion, variable heat source and variable thermal radiation in temperature and concentration profiles. Using similar trans...

The present paper deals with the study of flow, heat and mass transfer characteristics of the free convection on a vertical plate in porous media with variable wall temperature and concentration in a doubly stratified and viscous dissipating micropolar fluid in presence of chemical reaction, heat generation and Ohmic heating. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the plate. The governin...
