in this study, the diffusivity and volumetric mass transfer coefficients for the extraction of β-carotene from crude palm oil using co2 solvent in supercritical fluid were determined in the pressure range of 7.5-17.5 mpa and temperature range of 80-120 ºc. for this purpose, a statistical method was applied in order to minimize the number of experiments required. the volumetric mass transfer coe...

radical resection of a pathological lesion along with the preservation of eloquent cerebral tissue is the principle goal of neurosurgery. brain lesions are usually diagnosed by conventional magnetic resonance imaging (mri), but this method is unable to describe the relationship between lesions and neighboring specific white matter (wm) tracts. diffusion tensor tractograghy (dtt) is a new sophis...

in this study, mass transfer coefficients (mtc’s) of natural gas components during hydrate formation are reported. this work is based on the assumption that the transport of gas molecules from gas phase to aqueous phase is dominant among other resistances. several experiments were conducted on a mixture of natural gas at different pressures and temperatures and the consumed gas was monitored an...

the unsteady free convection flow between two long vertical parallel plates withvariable temperature and mass diffusion in the presence of the thermal radiation hasbeen presented. the governing dimensionless coupled linear partial differentialequations on the flow are solved by using the laplace transform technique. theexact solutions have been obtained for the fluid velocity, temperature and t...

an analytical study was performed to study effects of thermo-diffusion and chemical reactions on a three-dimensional mhd mixed convective flow of dissipative fluid along an infinite vertical porous plate with transverse sinusoidal suction velocity. the parabolic partial differential equations governing the fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer were solved using perturbation technique and...

in this research, the bioinsising impact of two wood decay fungi (pysisporinus vitreus and xylaria longipes) on radial air permeability and moisture diffusion coefficient of spruce wood (picea abies) was investigated. fungal cultivation was performed in an incubator at 25 °c and 85% relative humidity for 15, 30 and 45 days. results showed that the permeability, moisture diffusion and mass loss ...

to control the nonlinear numerical instability, throughout the time evolution of the eulerian form of the nonlinear rotating shallow water equations, it is necessary to add numerical diffusion to the solution. it is clear that, this extra numerical diffusion degrades the accuracy of the numerical solution and should be kept as small as possible. in a conventional approach a hyper-diffusion is u...
