In this study, the operating processes of a four-stroke diesel marine engine from the intake valve closing (IVC) to the exhaust valve opening (EVO) at numerous different charge air conditions were simulated with the AVL FIRE code. The CFD models were...

Medazepam, citric acid and their binary mixtures were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for thermal and structural properties. The DSC data show a simple eutectic peak at 370 K. T...

Communities operating urban greenhouses need affordable solutions to reduce their heating consumption. The objective of this study was to compare the ability of different simple ground-based solutions to reduce the heating energy consumption of relat...

Experiment-based Abraham model solute descriptors are calculated based on recently published solubility data for favipiravir dissolved in 12 chemically diverse organic mono-solvents. The calculated descriptor values indicate that favipiravir engages...

The objective of this work is to assess the accuracy and limitations of two different semi-empirical soot models: the Laminar Smoke Point (LSP) and soot-yield approach. A global soot formation model based on the LSP concept is embedded within FDS6.7....

In general, for an organic compound a plot of the log vapor pressure versus inverse temperature is linear over a wide temperature range. This however can lead to a point of confusion in an undergraduate thermodynamics course. This linear behavior is...

In recent years, there has been an increase in the use of renewable energy resources, which has led to the need for large-scale Energy Storage units in the electric grid. Currently, Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) and Pumped Hydro Storage (PHES)...

3D-RISM-KH molecular solvation theory based on statistical mechanics has been an engine of the multiscale methods framework, which also includes molecular simulation techniques. Its applications range from the solvation energy of small molecules to t...

The short and long-range orders in alloys can be assessed based on a new expression for the combinatorial factor, which is more convenient and intuitive than the traditionally used form. This novel expression can be directly applied to reproduce the...
