We propose another approach based on artificial neural network technique to model onset of precipitation of dissolved as- phaltene in the solution of solvent + precipitant. A mathematical model based on feed-forward artificial neural network technique, which takes advantage of a modified Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm, has been used to model onset of precipitation of dissolved asphaltene in the solvent + precipitant solution. The experimental data reported in the literature have been used to develop this model. The acceptable agreement between the results of this model and experi- mental data demonstrates the capability of the neural network technique for estimating onset of precipitation of dissolved asphaltene in the solution of solvent + precipitant.","PeriodicalId":238681,"journal":{"name":"The Open Thermodynamics Journal","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122339198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The numerical predictions show that minimum entropy generation and the better performance coefficients (COPs) are achieved with the largest figure of merit, which represents a relation- ship between the Peltier effect (cooling) and the Joule effect (heating).","PeriodicalId":238681,"journal":{"name":"The Open Thermodynamics Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128968348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pre- sent work attempts to bridge this gap between classical thermodynamics-based irreversibility predictions and finite time heat transfer analysis. By choosing a model problem, expressions for external irreversibilities are quantitatively derived and it is observed that ambiguities may exist in the pertinent quantification depending on the very definition of system, immediate surroundings and surroundings. It is observed that if variations within immediate surroundings are taken into account, more realistic estimates of external irreversibilities can be obtained in equilibrium thermodynamics framework, as a function of heat transfer characteristics of the same. It is also shown that for some special cases, different expressions for external irreversibilities asymptotically converge to the same entropy generation predictions, in effect.","PeriodicalId":238681,"journal":{"name":"The Open Thermodynamics Journal","volume":"702 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122970738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper also sets up a discussion about the thermodynamic and hydrodynamic aspect of the swirl flow and the benefits resulting from this behavior. The water with the constant physical properties is used as the working fluid and laminar flow regime is considered. Comparison between the classic microtube heat sink with frontal feeding and a microtube heat sink used in this research has also been done.","PeriodicalId":238681,"journal":{"name":"The Open Thermodynamics Journal","volume":"121 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123475151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental data are useful to the design and operation of the purification process of acetic acid. The experimental VLE and VLLE data were then correlated with the NRTL and the UNIQUAC activity coefficient mod- els, respectively, as described in the text.

The presence of equilibrium and non-equilibrium effects on pressure is accounted. In particular, the presence of equilibrium effects is shown to be essential for describing the pressure in the network. An ap- proach to the definition of equilibrium capillary pressure is presented in terms of interfacial energies of the phases but also in terms of the geometry characteristics of the tree-shaped network. Among other, the equilibrium capillary pressure is shown to depend on number of branching levels and number of daughter branches. Finally, a criterion is established to evaluate the importance of equilibrium and non-equilibrium effects on the capillary pressure.","PeriodicalId":238681,"journal":{"name":"The Open Thermodynamics Journal","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123375802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
