this paper discusses different important gas permeation models such as “maxwell”, “bruggeman”, “lewis-neilson”, and “pal” models to predict “mixed matrix membranes” (mmms) performance. the main parameter considered and discussed is the permeability of hydrogen on carbon nanotubes (cnts)-mmm. for evaluation of the theoretical models, experimental data of permeability for h2 were compared to the ...

the nanoparticles of ti-si mixed oxides (ntso) with rutile structure were prepared by sol-gel method in a mixture of alcohol and water as solvent. the solid product was characterized by xrd, ftir, sem, tem, uv, tga and laser raman spectroscopy. the catalytic activity of ntso (5-10 nm) was investigated in the epoxidation of cis stilbene, trans stilbene, and norbornene by using oxidants such as t...

this paper presents the results of a numerical study on the heat transfer performance and the removal process of fluid particles under the influence of magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection in a horizontal channel with an open cavity. the bottom wall of the cavity is heated at a constant temperature (th) while the top wall of the channel is maintained at a relatively low temperature (tc). air wi...

in the present research mixed convection flow through a copper-water nanofluid in a driven cavity in the presence of magnetic field is investigated numerically. the cavity is heated from top and cooled from bottom while its two vertical walls are insulated. the governing equations including continuity, n-s and energy equations are solved over a staggered grid system. the study is conducted for ...

double-diffusive mixed convection in a lid-driven square enclosure filled with al2o3-water is numerically investigated. two-dimensional nonlinear governing equations are discretized using the control volume method and hybrid scheme. the equations are solved using simpler algorithm. the results are displayed in the form of streamlines, isotherms, and iso-concentrations when the richardson number...

this research work is devoted to the development of a mathematical model for the simulation of the flow of polymeric melts through the die region of extruders. a set of governing equations are solved using finite element method. standard galerkin technique is used in conjunction with the mixed scheme to solve the flow equation. due to the non-linear nature of global equations, the picard iterat...

copper amine oxidases are important enzymes, which contribute to the regulation of mono- and polyamine levels. each monomer contains one cu(ii) ion and 2,4,5-trihydroxyphenylalanine (tpq) as cofactors. they catalyze the oxidative deamination of primary amines to aldehydes with a ping-pong mechanism consisting of a transamination. the mechanism is followed by the transfer of two electrons to mol...

the solubility of kno3 in the mixed solvent (water 85%+methanol 15%) were determined by using solvent evaporating method at different temperatures (25, 30, 40, 50, 60 ;c). in addition the equilibrium constant of ion pair formation, kip, for k+no3 – ion-pair on the basis of fuoss contact ion pair model was calculated. upon choosing the extended debye-hückel model for estimating the mean activity...

in this study, the ion association phenomenon in the saturated solution of kcl in the mixed solvent(methanol+water) was studied. the solubility of this compound in the mixed solvent (methanol+water by value percent of methanol = 60%), and in the presence of various molarities of nano3 wasdetermined by the solvent evaporation method at 25.0°c. the results enable us to estimate the valueof thermo...
