kinetic modeling is an important issue, whose objective is the accurate determination of the rates of various reactions taking place in a reacting system. this issue is a pivotal element in the process design and development particularly for novel processes which are based on reactions taking place between various types of species. the fischer tropsch (ft) reactions have been used as the kineti...

the agricultural regions are running into difficulties, which are restrictive availability of water, successive appearing draughts, and overuse of ground water resources for supplemental water requirements. as a sample which is got from the farm is sent to the laboratory for testing and the laboratory works need devices. hence, conducting farm experiments are expensive and time consuming to opt...

the main objective of this study was to develop an assessment model for the virtual water of irrigation networks using analytical hierarchy process. for this purpose, 14 modern irrigation networks of iran were selected. also, 14 effective factors on the virtual water of these systems were considered as decision criteria. expert choice software was used for ranking the virtual water values of th...

The current state-of-the-art in theoretical investigations of water is reviewed. Emphasis is on first-principles approaches, i.e., those not using any experimental information to make predictions. These approaches have substantially advanced in the past few years, to the point of providing the currently most accurate description of the various forms of water, more accurate than empirical method...

the effect on sugar beets of water and nitrogen movement in the soil under different water conditions was assessed over two years (2000-1) at the khorasan agricultural research center. three water treatments (no water stress, continuous stress and primary stress) and three n amounts (80, 160 and 240 kg n/ha) were investigated. the amount of moisture depletion in the water treatments was 50%, 80...

phytoplankton and zooplankton concentrations in pishin reservoir are predicted employing a three-dimensional numerical model in this paper. modeling is performed using a numerical model based on mass transport equation. advection, diffusion and source/sink processes are considered as separate subroutines for predicting the concentrations of phytoplankton and zooplankton in the reservoir. finite...

infiltration and its modeling are important in design and implementation of irrigation projects, drainage, water-resources management, soil-conservation, hydrological studies, and artificial-recharge of groundwater and are influenced by different characteristics of soil and infiltrated water including the amount of salinity and sodium. the aim of this study was to evaluate the infiltration mode...

kashan aquifer is adjacent to salt lake. because of this adjacency, the saline water of the lake has moved to the aquifer. in this study groundwater quality of the aquifer was simulated using artificial neural network (ann) model. for this purpose, the dominant ion of water was first determined by piper diagram. results showed that the sodium chloride is the dominant ion of water and so it was ...

nowadays, it’s very usual to use these models in almost all sciences. use of these models has provided quick, appropriate and economic answers to many questions. modeling is developing in different fields of agriculture, including irrigation and drainage. field tests are useful to determine and analyze the different irrigation management but there are significant limitations. the most important...
