Centrifugal Compressor Spiral Dry Gas Seal Simulation Working at Reverse Rotation by Ibrahim, Shahin

“…Unidirectional dry gas seal may experiences reverse rotation when equipped in a centrifugal compressor. This paper describes how the reverse rotation effects on the spiral unidirectional dry gas seal performance and pressure distribution inside the gas film, also an investigation of using a different herringbone shape grooves configurations has been done using ANSYS FLUENT 14.5 CFD simulation. …”

Effect of hyperglycemia on EPCs function and regenerative ability by Hendawi, Hadeel Khalil

“…For that, we studied BOECs viability, response to shear stress, angiogenesis ability, and barrier function under normoglycemic (5.5mM) and hyperglycemic (25mM) conditions. The results have shown significant effects of chronic hyperglycemic conditions on cell proliferation (n=3, p<0.05), and migration (n=3, p<0.05) which were decreased when compared to control. …”
