magnesium hydroxide nanostructures as an effective flame retardant were synthesized by a facile and rapid microwave reaction. the effect of different surfactants such as cationic, anionic and polymeric on the morphology of magnesium hydroxide nanostructures was investigated. nanostructures were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and fourier transform in...

nanosized al2o3 powder is synthesized by thermal metal organic chemical vapor deposition (mocvd)combined withplasma. the effects of reaction temperature, pressure, al(ch3)3 (tma) concentration and reactant gases (co2 and o2) on the characteristics of the synthesized al2o3 powders are investigated. the experimental results demonstrate that very fineal2o3 powders with mean particle size of about ...

this study is considering a micropolar fluid flow over a porous stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and uniform magnetic field. the effects of local variation in thermal conductivity of micropolar fluid on heat transfer rate from the sheet are investigated; besides, the impacts of radiation, magnetic field and porous sheet on variations of thermal boundary layer thickness are ...

a lattice boltzmann method is applied to demonstrate the comparison results of simulating natural convection in an open end cavity using different hydrodynamic and thermal boundary conditions. the prandtl number in the present simulation is 0.71, rayleigh numbers are 104,105 and 106 and viscosities are selected 0.02 and 0.05. on-grid bounce-back method with first-order accuracy and non-slip met...

in this study, effect early age feed restriction and thermal conditioning on growth ,carcass characteristics broiler chickens subjected to heat stress was evaluated. three hundred chicks (cobb500) were randomly divided into four equal groups as treatments including thermal conditioning group (tc), feed restriction-thermal conditioning group (tcfr), feed restriction group (fr) and control group ...

nanocomposite materials, including noble metal nanoparticles embedded in a dielectric host medium, are interesting because of their optical properties linked to surface plasmon resonance phenomena. for studding of nonlinear optical properties and/or energy transfer process, these materials may be excited by ultrashort pulse laser with a temporal width varying from some femtoseconds to some hund...

in this work, thermal degradation behavior of a fuel-rich energetic mixture containing epoxy binder was studied by thrmogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry under dynamic nitrogen atmosphere at different heating rates. variation of the thermal degradation activation energy of the mixture was evaluated by differential and integral isoconversional methods via akts software p...

Since the discovery of long-time tails, it has been clear that Fourier's law in low dimensions is typically anomalous, with a size-dependent heat conductivity, though the nature of the anomaly remains puzzling. The conventional wisdom, supported by renormalization-group arguments and mode-coupling approximations within fluctuating hydrodynamics, is that the anomaly is universal in 1d momentum-c...

Thermal runaway is mitigated by changing the geometry of current
