Numerical investigation of steady air injection flow to control rotating stall in centrifugal compressors by Halawa, Taher

“…Results also indicated that by using air injection, the number of stalled diffuser passages is decreased compared to the case of no injection. The most significant result of this paper is that using an angle of injection around twice the value of the diffuser vane angle gives the best results and makes the ideal correction of the fluid kinetic energy and fluid angle at the diffuser inlet. …”

The effect of type and combination of fertilizers on eukaryotic microbiome of date palm rhizosphere by Al-Hadidi, Sara H.

“…PCA revealed that the eukaryotic microbiome of the wild date palms was separated from the cultivated date palms and that the eukaryotic microbial diversity varied between date palm cultivars in similar environments. Using the highest amounts of biofertilizer and chemical fertilizer decreased the species diversity within the samples. …”

Impact of moisture contents on the performance of organic bi-layer ITO/OD thermo-electric cells by Ahmad, Zubair

“…The experimental results clearly show that with the increase of temperature Seebeck coefficient increases, whereas with increasing moisture contents the Seebeck coefficient of the ITO/OD thermo-electric cell significantly decreases. Our results point out the need for well-controlled environmental conditions, predominantly moisture level, in order to appraise the thermo-electric performance of organic semiconductor materials. 2016, Springer Science+Business Media New York.…”
