1. Detection of seepage paths in small earth dams using the self-potential method (SP)
Abstract The application of geoelectric methods, such as induced polarization (IP), the electrical resistivity and the self-potential (SP), presents an important indirect study methodology in several areas of geology, such as mining, geotechnics and environmental geology. The present study deals with the results of the application of the self-potential metho

2. AN INVESTIGATION OF THE HEAT TRANSFER PERFORMANCE OF DUAL IMPROVED INTERMIG IMPELLERS IN A STIRRED TANK WITH AN INNER HEATING COIL
Abstract The heat transfer process in a stirred tank of diameter T=0.5m equipped with dual-layer improved Intermig impellers and helical coils was investigated by experiment and numerical simulation methods. The temperature field, the temperature boundary layer lateral to the coil and the heat transfer coefficient were measured at different rotational speeds

5. Variação da entropia total para um corpo em contato com reservatórios térmicos: o caminho da reversibilidade
Resumo A segunda lei da termodinâmica é um dos tópicos de física fundamental menos compreendidos por estudantes e profissionais de ciências exatas e engenharias, talvez devido à sua sutileza e abundância de enunciados. Neste trabalho analisamos a variação de entropia de um sistema isolado, formado por um corpo de capacidade calorífica C(T) e um ou

8. Application of optimization for improvement of the efficiency of louvered-fin compact heat exchangers
Abstract A few decades ago, the product development process was just based on a trial and error procedure, and the designer's experience. The need for a new way to design and manufacture more economical and sustainable products corroborates increasingly to a new vision of how to create new products for the benefit of society. Modern numerical tools allow gre
