Experimental investigation of thermal and mechanical characteristics of slag cement mortars with PCM for radiant floors

Mortar thermal storage layers incorporating phase change material (PCM) can improve the thermal performance of radiant floors in buildings, reduce indoor temperature fluctuations and thus provide further savings in building heating energy consumption, size-matters-enlargers offering great potential for the application of active thermal energy stora

Regulation of marine plankton respiration: A test of models

Plankton respiration is a major process removing oxygen from pelagic environments and constitutes one of the largest oxygen transformations in the sea.Where the O2 supplies due to dissolution, advection and oxygenic photosynthesis are not sufficient, hypoxic, Occasion Dresses or anoxic waters may result.Coastal waters with limited water exchange ar

Two-phase nanofluid model and magnetic field effects on mixed convection in a lid-driven cavity containing heated triangular wall

The current numerical study looked into the magneto-hydrodynamics Ferrite mixed convection of nanofluid in a lid-driven square cavity subjected to heating by a triangular thick wall.The nanofluid heat transfer was modelled by using a two-phase Buongiorno model, whereas obtaining a numerical solution for the governing equations was described using t
