Numerical study of heat transfer of U-shaped enclosure containing nanofluids in a porous medium using two-phase mixture method Mohammad Hemmat Esfe, Hossein Rostamian, Davood Toghraie, Maboud Hekmatifar, Amir Taghavi Khalil Abad Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2022 The free convection in a porous U-shaped shield containing Al2O3/H2O nanofluid (NF) was examined using the two-phase (tp) mixture method. The results showed that the heat transfer (HT) rate and average Nusselt number (Nuavg) were amended by increasing the volume fraction (φ) of Al2O3 nanoparticles (NPs). An enhancement in Rayleigh number (Ra number) led to the turbulence of the NF flow; therefore, the Nuavg enhanced. Moreover, adding Al2O3 NPs to the base fluid (water) enhanced the fluid conductivity, resulting in the increase of Nuavg In this study, the results of the tp method were compared with the single-phase (sp) metrhod. It was concluded that the single-phase method is described the effects of the NPs appropriately, but it could not correctly represent the performance of NP. The buoyancy force was weak at a low Ra numbers (such as Ra = 1000). Therefore, the arrangement of isotherms is remained unchanged. However, in large quantities such as Ra = 100000, the buoyancy force is increased; so, the uniform order and arrangement of the isotherms are disturbed.
Prediction the dynamic viscosity of MWCNT-Al2O3 (30:70)/ Oil 5W50 hybrid nano-lubricant using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Mohammad Hemmat Esfe, Mehdi Hajian, Davood Toghraie, Mohamad Khaje khabaz, Alireza Rahmanian, Mostafa Pirmoradian, Hossein Rostamian Egyptian Informatics Journal, 2022 In this study, the prediction of dynamic viscosity (µnf) of MWCNT-Al2O3 (30:70)/ Oil 5W50 hybrid nano-lubricant using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is performed. The objective of the present research is to investigate the effect of temperature and solid volume fraction (SVF) to predict the shear rates (SR) and µnf using ANN. The feed-forward ANN consists of a multilayer perceptron network (MLP), which is capable of predicting µnf in connection with experimental data of temperature, SR and SVF. Sensitivity analysis is used to evaluate the importance and role of temperature, SR, and SVF in experimental µnf variations. ANN is generated and tested with experimental data sets and the results show that there was a good agreement between the actual and predicted ANN values. Moreover, the results of ANN simulation are compared with other data processing methods such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), Partial Least Squares (PLS), Principal Component Regression. In addition, the results of the residual value of ANN with seven neurons for µnf can be very small and close to the expected normal value. From this, it can be concluded that the given model can expect exact values.
Production and characterization of ultrafine aspirin particles by rapid expansion of supercritical solution with solid co-solvent (RESS-SC): expansion parameters effects Hossein Rostamian, Mohammad Nader Lotfollahi Particulate Science and Technology, 2020 Micronization of polar drugs by the rapid expansion of supercritical solution (RESS) process is not successful in near critical pressure due to the extremely low solubility of the drugs in near-critical CO2. In this study, for the first time, micronization of aspirin was successfully performed by the rapid expansion of supercritical solution with solid co-solvent (RESS-SC) process in near-critical pressure by using menthol as solid co-solvent. To achieve this aim, some experiments were conducted to study the influences of expansion pressure ranging from 1 to 8 bar, pre-expansion temperature ranging from 30 to 70 °C, spray distance ranging from 2 to 6 cm, nozzle diameter ranging from 300 to 700 µm, and nozzle types (orifice - capillary) on the morphology and size of aspirin particles. The obtained particles were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis. Utilizing RESS-SC process in near-critical condition, aspirin particles in the range of 0.17–6.61 µm were obtained.
A new correlation method for estimating thermal conductivity of carbon dioxide in liquid, vapor and supercritical phases Hossein Rostamian, Mohammad Nader Lotfollahi Periodica Polytechnica Chemical Engineering, 2020 In this study, a new correlation for estimating thermal conductivity (TC) of carbon dioxide was developed based on 2319 data points. The data points were at the temperature ranging from 250 to 1100 K, pressure ranging from 1 to 3000 bar and density ranging from 0.3 to 1400 Kg.m-3 in different phases of liquid, vapor and supercritical. The statistical parameters including average absolute deviation (AAD%), average percent relative error (ARE%), sum of absolute residual (SAR) and the coefficient of determination (R2) have been calculated to evaluate the accuracy of present correlation. The obtained values of AAD%, ARE%, SAR and R2 were 1.98, −0.64, 3510.1 and 0.995, respectively. The predictions of proposed correlation were also compared with three widely used correlations. The results showed that the proposed correlation is able to accurately calculate thermal conductivity of carbon dioxide. In addition, the proposed model is superior to all the existing empirical models considered.
