13. PERFORMANCE OF FERTILIZER METERING MECHANISMS OF PLANTERS AS A FUNCTION OF LONGITUDINAL INCLINATION
ABSTRACT: Sowing occurs in agricultural areas with irregular relief, influencing the quality of seed and fertilizer distribution. The aim of this study was to analyze the performance of different fertilizer metering mechanisms of planters as a function of longitudinal inclination. The experimental design was a completely randomized design with five treatment

14. CHARACTERIZATION OF CLOGGING MATERIAL FROM HORIZONTAL SUBSURFACE FLOW CONSTRUCTED WETLAND SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT This study aimed to characterize the material composition responsible for clogging the porous medium of horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (HSSF–CW) systems, which is detrimental to a proper system operation. Six completely clogged HSSF–CWs were used after treatment of swine wastewater. Operating conditions of these systems were name

15. HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY VARIABILITY IN HORIZONTAL SUBSURFACE FLOW CONSTRUCTED WETLANDS
ABSTRACT Many modifications in hydrodynamic conditions occur inside the bed of a horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (HSSF–CW) in operation. Studies on hydraulic conductivity measurement techniques in HSSF–CW are imperative since the monitoring of flow conditions is essential for understanding and controlling its clogging. This study aimed to

16. Numerical Study of Wake Characteristics in a Horizontal-Axis Hydrokinetic Turbine
ABSTRACT Over the years most studies on wake characteristics have been devoted to wind turbines, while few works are related to hydrokinetic turbines. Among studies applied to rivers, depth and width are important parameters for a suitable design. In this work, a numerical study of the wake in a horizontal-axis hydrokinetic turbine is performed, where the ma

17. Influence of upward and horizontal growth direction on microstructure and microhardness of an unsteady-state directionally solidified Al-Cu-Si alloy
In order to analyze the effect of the growth direction on dendrite arm spacing (λ1) and microhardness (HV) during horizontal directional solidification (HDS), experiments were carried out with the Al-3wt.%Cu-5.5wt.%Si alloy and the results compared with others from the literature elaborated for upward directional solidification (UDS). For this purpose, a wa

18. NOVEL SIMILARITY-SOLUTION WHICH IS APPLICABLE FOR FREE CONVECTION OVER A BODY OF ARBITRARY SHAPE: THERMAL NON-EQUILIBRIUM IN A POROUS MEDIUM
Abstract The study of the natural convection flow and heat transfer from hot surfaces in a porous medium has been of considerable interest in energy-related engineering problems. This paper is concerned with the free convection heat transfer over an arbitrary hot surface in a porous medium. It is assumed that the fluid and solid phases are not in local therm

19. Three-dimensional simulation of liquid flow on a sieve tray under different inclinations
The fluid state on a sieve tray will change when the towers tilt under wind loads. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was used to predict the flow patters and hydraulics on the tray under different inclinations. The gas and liquid phases are modelled with the volume-of-fluid (VOF) framework as two inmiscible phases. Several three-dimensional transien

20. On the prediction of pickup and saltation velocities in pneumatic conveying
This paper presents a comparative study of the critical pickup and saltation velocities of particles in horizontal pipelines for pneumatic conveying design. A comparative study is performed using different existing correlations in the literature for the determination of the minimum velocity of transport as a function of the particle and pipe diameter, partic

21. Effectiveness of horizontal air flow fans supporting natural ventilation in a Mediterranean multi-span greenhouse
Natural ventilation is the most important method of climate control in Mediterranean greenhouses. In this study, the microclimate and air flow inside a Mediterranean greenhouse were evaluated by means of sonic anemometry. Experiments were carried out in conditions of moderate wind (≈ 4.0 m s-1), and at low wind speed (≈ 1.8 m s-1) the natural ventilation

22. Characterization of the Al-3wt.%Si alloy in unsteady-state horizontal directional solidification
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate both the columnar to equiaxed transition and primary dendritic arm spacings of Al-3wt.%Si alloy during the horizontal directional solidification. The transient heat transfer coefficient at the metal-mold interface is calculated based on comparisons between the experimental thermal profiles in castings and the

23. Possibilidades de reorganização territorial apoiada na imagem náutica a partir de Angra dos Reis-RJ / Possibilities of territorial reorganization supported in nautical image based on Angra dos Reis-RJ
This thesis provides a perspective for nautical tourism as an occasion of reorganization of the territory. In order to make navigation as leisure, recreation and tourism a subject of public interest, it seeks to provide subsidies for planning schedules and raise the collective mentality to expand opportunities and benefits to the propensity of coastal boatin

24. Caracterização do escoamento no limite de mobilização de um leito granular cisalhado por um fluido / Caracterization of a turbulent liquid flow by the bed-load transport of granular matter
O transporte de grãos por um fluido em escoamento é frequentemente encontrado na natureza e na indústria. Está presente, por exemplo, na erosão das margens de rios, na migração de dunas no deserto e no transporte de areia em dutos. O mecanismo de transporte se dá através da transferência da quantidade de movimento do fluido para os grãos. Quando a
