We perform cosmological hydrodynamic simulations to determine to what extent galaxies lose their gas due to photoheating from an ionizing background. We find that the characteristic mass at which haloes on average have lost half of their baryons is Mc ∼ 6.5×10 h M⊙ at z = 0, which corresponds to a circular velocity of 25 km s. This is significantly lower than the filtering mass obtained by the ...

A model for heat-recirculating micro combustor is developed. It investigates the structure of laminar, one-dimensional and steady state flame propagation in uniformly premixed wood particles with considering the effects of heat recirculation caused by configuration of micro combustor. The flame structure is divided into three regions: a preheat-devolatilization zone where the rate of the gas-ph...

In front of the LMC molecular hydrogen is found in absorption near 0 kms, being local disk gas, near +60 kms in an intermediate velocity cloud, and near +120 kms, being a high velocity halo cloud. The nature of the gas is discussed based on four Orfeus far UV spectra of LMC stars and including data from the ground and from the IUE satellite. The local gas is cool and, given a span of sight line...

investigation of projectiles penetration phenomenon has been carried out in non-cohesive soil (sand) targets under dry, saturated and compacted conditions. analytical studies have been performed on the linear and non-linear soil models to obtain penetration depth formulae for ogival nose projectile and the results are verified by experimental studies. in present work, three ogival nose projecti...

in this research, a cold model of internally circulating fluidized bed is investigated. the aim is to find the effects of some of the operating parameters on the performance of the reactor. experiments were carried out in a glass column (30 mm i.d. and 25 cm height) with a centrally located draft tube (11 mm i.d. and 5 or 7 cm height). the bed was loaded with white silica particles (dp = 0.15 -...

Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) is a growing problem in the oil and gas industry resulting in huge financial losses. Sulfate Reducing Bacteria (SRB) are often the culprits although many other microorganisms can also be directly or indirectly involved. From the bioprocess engineering angle, mass transfer and flow conditions are very important in SRB biofilm formation and MIC corrosi...

multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. these reactors have been studied based on computational fluid dynamics (cfd) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigations...
