abstract in order to study the effects of irrigation regimes on physiological traits, yield and water use efficiency of potato (solanum tuberosum l.) in mashhad weather condition, an experiment was conducted in 2009 at research field of the college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, using factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with 3 replications. experimen...

background: bromide is found naturally in groundwater and surface water. the rapid growth of industrial activities, drainage of surface runoff, and use of methyl bromide in pesticides has increased bromide discharge to the environment. disinfection of water-containing bromide causes the creation of additional products of organo-halogenated that are considered cancer-causing agents. in this stud...

This paper introduces an effective production optimization and a water injection allocation method for oil reservoirs with water injection. In this method, a two-stage adaptive simulated annealing (ASA) is used. A coarse-grid model is made based on average horizon permeability at the beginning iterations of the optimization to search quickly. In the second stage, the fine-grid model is used to ...

due to shortage of precipitation and the spatial and periodical disparity of rainfalls, iran iscounted among the arid and semi-arid countries of the world, and therefore the water utilities have put thecontrol of consumption and efficient use of water high on their priorities. water consumption management isconsidered as a field of energy management, and the impacts of effective measure related...

the purpose of this paper is multi-objective optimization of refrigeration cycle by optimization of all components of the cycle contains heat exchangers, air condenser, evaporator and super-heater. studied refrigeration cycle is compression refrigeration cycle of unit 132 third refineries in south pars that provide chilled water for cooling refinery equipment's. cycle will be performed by ...

Currently many countries are struggling to rationalize water quality monitoring stations which is caused by economic demand. Though this process essential indeed, the exact elements of system be optimized without a subsequent and accuracy loss still remain obscure. Therefore, accurate historical data on groundwater pollution required detect monitor considerable environmental impacts. To collect...

one of the mostly used enhanced oil recovery methods is the injection of water or gas under pressure to maintain or reverse the declining pressure in a reservoir. several parameters should be optimized in a fluid injection process. the usual optimizing methods evaluate several scenarios to find the best solution. since it is required to run the reservoir simulator hundreds of times, the process...
