In this paper, the problem of turbulent forced convection flow of water- alumina nanofluid in a uniformly heated pipe has been thoroughly investigated. In numerical study, single and two-phase models have been used. In single-phase modeling of nanofluid, thermal and flow properties of nanofluid have been considered to be dependent on temperature and volume fraction. Effects of volume fraction a...

In this paper, photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected inverter which is the core device in PV grid-connected system has been in depth research.An improved predictive current controller has been developed by the Authors for single-phase grid-connected voltage source inverters (VSI).Based on DSP TMS320LF2407A, a 10 kW single-phase grid-connected inverter has been built in this paper.Thus is aimed at us...

in the course of expansion in turbines steam nucleates to become a two-phase mixture, the liquid consisting of a very large number of extremely small droplets carried by the vapor. formation and subsequent behaviour of the liquid lowers the performance of turbine wet stages. the calculations were carried out assuming that the flow is two dimensional, compressible, turbulent and viscous. a class...

Recent increases in deciduous shrub cover are a primary focus of terrestrial Arctic research. This study examined the historic spatial patterns of shrub expansion on the North Slope of Alaska to determine the potential for a phase transition from tundra to shrubland. We examined the historic variability of landscape-scale tall shrub expansion patterns on nine sites within river valleys in the B...

at the present study, different properties of sarin with the formula [(ch3)2cho]ch3pof was studiedin gas phase. geometrical optimizations of sarin, single point calculation, nmr and electricalparameters were carried out in gas phase with the hartee -fock method coupled to 6-31g* basis setsfor all atoms. the results obtained from a comparison between tables and charts came up fordiscussion and a...
