1. Drying kinetics and mass transfer properties in the drying of thistle flower
Resumo A flor de cardo e, em particular, os seus estigmas, são utilizados para coagular o leite na produção de vários queijos tradicionais portugueses, devido à sua elevada atividade de coagulação, proporcionada pelo elevado teor de proteases aspárticas. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi determinar as propriedades de transferência de massa da seca

2. Simulation of species concentration distribution in reactive flows with unsteady boundary conditions
Abstract The determination of species concentration profiles in reactive flows with variable inlets is a problem of practical interest to many fields such as in flow reactor transient operation and in cyclic degradable pollutants disposals in watercourses. In these cases, the inflow condition often consists of a time-dependent function, which may imply unste

3. Extracellular diffusion quantified by magnetic resonance imaging during rat C6 glioma cell progression
Solution reflux and edema hamper the convection-enhanced delivery of the standard treatment for glioma. Therefore, a real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method was developed to monitor the dosing process, but a quantitative analysis of local diffusion and clearance parameters has not been assessed. The objective of this study was to compare diffusion

4. The impact of convective drying on the color, phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of noni (Morinda citrifolia L.)
Abstract The effect of thin-layer drying temperature on color, phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of noni slices was investigated. Noni slices were air-dried at 50, 60 and 70 °C under natural convection conditions. Drying curves were fitted to thin-layer drying models in order to evaluate the drying characteristics of the product. In addition, an uns

5. NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE INCOMPRESSIBLE TURBULENT FLOW OF A BINARY MIXTURE OF AIR-WATER VAPOR: APPLICATIONS IN DRYING PROCESS
Abstract The present work deals with numerical simulation of the incompressible turbulent flow of a binary mixture air-water vapor inside channels. Calculations are performed using the RANS (Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes Equations) formulation in addition to the standart k-ε turbulence model. The mathematical model is discretized by a finite difference sch

6. CHOOSING THE OPTIMAL GEL MORPHOLOGY IN ELECTROPHORESIS SEPARATION BY A DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION APPROACH (DEA)
Abstract This paper introduces an effective optimization approach to investigate the morphological effects of nanocomposite gel electrophoresis and operational parameters (see below) by integrating the numerical simulations based on finite element method and population-based search algorithm such as differential evolution. Simulations are performed to study

7. A weighted mass explicit scheme for convection-diffusion equations
An explicit scheme based on a weighted mass matrix, for solving time-dependent convection-diffusion problems was recently proposed by the author and collaborators. Convenient bounds for the time step, in terms of both the method's weights and the mesh step size, ensure its stability in space and time, for piecewise linear finite element discretisations in an

8. Estudo numérico da aplicação do método dos elementos finitos de Galerkin e dos mínimos quadrados na solução da equação da convecção-difusão-reação tridimensional / Numerical study of the application of Galerkin and least squares finite element methods in the solution of the tridimentional convection-diffusion-reaction equation
This paper the application of the Finite Element Method in variants Galerkin and Least Squares with auxiliary equations for the numerical solution of partial differential equation that models the convection-diffusion-reaction defined over a three-dimensional domain in steady state. In the spatial discretization were used hexahedrons elements with eight (line

10. Non-universal interspecific allometric scaling of metabolism
We extend a previously theory for the interspecific allometric scaling developed in a d+1-dimensional space of metabolic states. The time, which is characteristic of all biological processes, is included as an extra dimension to d biological lengths. The different metabolic rates, such as basal (BMR) and maximum (MMR), are described by supposing that the bio

11. Mecânica de suspensões magnéticas diluídas
This work concerns with an investigation of the dynamics of dilute suspensions composed by magnetic particles, considering microstructural and macroscopic aspects of this particulate systems. From the microstructure, it is known that magnetostatic attraction may lead to formation of aggregates in magnetic suspensions. In this way, numerical simulations have

12. Integração dos processos de eletrodiálise e de degradação fotoquímica para o tratamento de efluentes salinos contendo fenol. / Integration of electrodialysis and photochemical degradation process for the treatment of a saline wastewater containing phenol.
Chemical oxidation processes can be used to treat industrial wastewater containing non-biodegradable organic compounds. However, the presence of dissolved salts may inhibit or retard the treatment process. In this work, a coupled process is studied including a desalination step by electrodialysis (ED) associated with an advanced oxidation process (photo-Fent
