1. TRAILER HEAT ZONES AND THEIR RELATION TO HEAT STRESS IN PIG TRANSPORT
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the dynamics of heat zones in the load and its relationship with the stress of pigs during transport. Four journeys of 170 km were monitored, recording the physiological variables of 192 animals (48 per journey), namely rectal temperature (RT), body temperature (BT), respiratory rate (RR), blood lactate concentrations and saliva

2. COMPUTATIONAL ANALYSIS OF LOAD VENTILATION IN BROILER TRANSPORT
ABSTRACT The characterization of ventilation during the transport of broiler chickens is essential for identifying and characterizing the potential problems of a convective heat flow and its effects on the welfare and the health and production conditions of the chickens. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ventilation patterns in two layout model

3. Implementation of ventilation towers in a greenhouse established in low altitude tropical climate conditions: numerical approach to the behavior of the natural ventilation
ABSTRACT Deficient ventilation rates and airflow patterns in naturally ventilated greenhouses are the main causes for the generation of inadequate and heterogeneous thermal conditions inside this type of structure. In this research, a numerical study was developed using a two-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model validated in a Colombian greenhouse

4. Study using a CFD approach of the efficiency of a roof ventilation closure system in a multi-tunnel greenhouse for nighttime microclimate optimization
ABSTRACT The thermal efficiency of naturally ventilated greenhouses is limited due to the permanent exchange of air through the vents, especially during the night hours. The objective of the work consisted in evaluating a system of inflatable air ducts that close the roof vents during the night as a strategy to reduce the energy loss during these hours. For

6. A NEW COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS STUDY OF A LIQUID-LIQUID HYDROCYCLONE IN THE TWO PHASE CASE FOR SEPARATION OF OIL DROPLETS AND WATER
Abstract A liquid-liquid hydrocyclone, so-called de-oiling equipment, was investigated for separation of oil droplets and wastewater in an Iranian petroleum unit. To generate the geometry and the mesh of the hydrocyclone Gambit software was used. Afterwards, by taking advantage of the Euler-Lagrangian principle, the governing equations covering the motion of

7. STUDY OF PARAMETERS AFFECTING THE COALESCENCE OF DIMETHYL DISULFIDE DROPS IN A MEROX UNIT
Abstract This study focuses on the coalescence of dimethyl disulfide drops with the mother phase at a flat aqueous-organic interface between dimethyl disulfide and different sodium hydroxide solutions. Drop coalescence is an important part of the Merox process for regenerating the solvent. A digital high-frame rate camera was used for recording drops coalesc

8. PREPARATION AND SIMULATION OF THE ON-LINE SiO2/S COATING FOR COKING INHIBITION IN THE INDUSTRIAL CRACKING FURNACE
Abstract Coke formation inside radiant coils is one of the main problems during thermal cracking of hydrocarbons. The on-line preparation of the coating for coking inhibition is a promising technology because it provides more flexibility to the operators on site. The SiO2/S coating was prepared on the inner surface of coils in an 8-year-served GK-VI industri

9. Numerical study of upstream disturbances on the performance of electromagnetic and ultrasonic flowmeters
ABSTRACT Electromagnetic and ultrasonic flowmeters are high precision devices that can measure the water flow in pressurized irrigation networks. In these networks, the inadequate installation distance of flow control valves generates upstream disturbances which will increase measurement errors and reduce the accuracy of the equipment. Therefore, estimating

10. Simulação computacional de dispositivos de mistura em câmara de combustão para gases de carbonização
Resumo O carvão vegetal proveniente de florestas plantadas é uma fonte de energia renovável utilizada na siderurgia do Brasil, todavia, em sua produção há liberação do gás de pirólise, que pode ser considerado um gás com baixo poder calorífico inferior. A sustentabilidade da produção de carvão vegetal tem demandado a queima destes gases, poden

11. Investigation of the effect of nozzle design on rheological bioprinting properties using computational fluid dynamics
ABSTRACT Bioprinting is the utilization of techniques derived from three-dimensional printing to generate complex biological structures which may replace natural tissues or organs. It employs high spatial resolution deposition of different cell types, growth factors and biomaterials. Those together form bioinks, which are the bioprinting inputs, analogously
