In this paper we introduce an analytical approach to calculate the distribution of velocity of flow of the gas mixture, the concentration distributions of the growth component and temperature fields in the zone of deposition of semiconductor layers in chemical vapor deposition using a reaction chamber with a rotating disk substrate holder. The results of analysis of the temperature and concentr...

The asymptotic structure of unstrained, laminar, fuel-rich, premixed methane flame is analyzed by using a reduced chemical-kinetic mechanism made up of three global steps. Analysis is carried out for values of equivalence ratio greater than 1.3. The flame structure is presumed to comprise three zones: an inert preheat zone, a thin reaction zone, and a post-flame zone. In contrast to previous as...

Hydraulic fracturing and matrix stimulation are two major methods of the reservoir stimulation. Hydraulic fracturing, which is the newest technique and technically more complex, is very useful in low permeability reservoirs. Although it has been used widely in hydrocarbon production wells, it is a new method in Iran. In this paper, the effect of sufficient barrier layers on hydraulic fracturing...

buckle folds are common traps for hydrocarbon in several contractional provinces. buckle folds form where stratified sequences rest a top salt or some other utterly weak rock as a decollemet zone in units with high competency contrasts by a compressive stress which acted along the length of the rock layers. an important parameter affecting buckle folding of a competent zone above a mobile decol...

Simultaneous PIV and PLIF methods were used to investigate the relationship between vorticity, principal strain rates, and 2-D dilatation on reaction surfaces in nonpremixed planar jet flames and on 2-D scalar dissipation rate layers and iso-scalar surfaces in nonreacting planar jets. Examination of simultaneous vorticity (ω z) contours and PLIF images in unsteady laminar and turbulent flames s...

The possibility of using a detonation wave as the key combustion system for supersonic propulsion is examined. A brief review of propagating detonations is provided first. This review emphasizes the unique and unstable nature of the coupling between reaction zone and shock waves that characterize detonations. The theory of idealized, steady, oblique detonation waves and their reaction zone stru...

Reaction zones formed at 790 °C between solid titanium and liquid Ag-Cu eutectic alloys (pure and Ti-saturated) have been characterized. When pure Ag-Cu eutectic alloy with 40 at.% Cu is used, the interface reaction layer sequence is: αTi / Ti2Cu / TiCu / Ti3Cu4 / TiCu4 / L. Because of the fast dissolution rate of Ti in the alloy, the reaction zone remains very thin (3-6 μm) whatever the reacti...
