Internal flow patterns behavior of a top heat mode closed-loop oscillating heat pipe with check valves (THMCLOHP/CV)
An experimental study of the internal flow patterns of a top heat mode closed-loop oscillating heat pipe with check valves (THMCLOHP/CV) was carried out. In this study, the heat pipe was made of a Pyrex tube with an inner diameter of 2.4 mm which was bent into 10 meandering turns and filled with ethanol, R141b and R123 at a filling ratio of 50% by total volume. The number of check valves was 2 sets. The...

Estimating suspended sediment concentration using neural differential evolution (NDE), multi layer perceptron (MLP) and radial basis function (RBF) models
Sediment transport has attracted the attention of engineers from various aspects and different methods have been used for its estimation. So, several experimental equations have been submitted by experts. Though the results of these methods have considerable differences with each other and with experimental observations, because the sediment measures have some limits, these equations can be used in...

Quality of irrigation and drinking water in Nangarparkar Region of Thar Desert of Pakistan
The pioneer study evaluates water quality status in Nangarparkar area of Thar Desert of Pakistan. Water samples obtained from wells, ponds and storage tanks greatly varied in their chemical composition and nutrient contents. Percentage of hazardous well water samples for irrigation purpose were: pH: 30%; electrical conductivity (EC): 27%; total soluble salts (TSS): 100%; CO3–: 70%; HCO3–:...
