Comparative Analyses of Select Microbial Growth Inhibited Rate Models
Abstract: Food waste is a complex substrate comprising of different mixtures of chemical compounds. The growth rate of micro-organism in such environment will experience inhibition. Consequently, the Monod’s model will not be able to describe the growth rate of its bacteria. The Aiba’s, Andrews and the Haldane’s growth rate models that are accounts for growth rate of bacteria with inhibition were compared. To do this, seven different batch experimentations; each with …

Capacitance–Resistance Model Application to Reservoirs Primarily Under Aquifer Influx
Abstract: Previous Capacitance – Resistance Models that have been developed to characterise black oil reservoirs undergoing waterflooding do not apply to waterflooding of reservoirs primarily under aquifer influxresulting in significant error. This paper has attempted to overcome this limitation by presenting the aquifer influx as a pseudo injector whose injection rate is represented by an existing aquifer model.The influencing parameters of the model have been modified to include an aquifer influx …

Thermo-Hydraulic Enhancement of Annular Finned Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchangers Using Epoxy-Based Polymer Composites: A Material–Geometry Coupled CFD Investigation
Abstract: Shell-and-tube heat exchangers remain a backbone of industrial thermal systems, yet their performance is often limited by relatively low shell-side heat transfer and the weight and cost associated with conventional metallic components. In this context, the integration of polymer composite materials offers a promising pathway toward lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and performance-tunable heat exchanger designs. The present study investigates the thermo-hydraulic performance of a straight-tube shell-and-tube heat exchanger equipped with annular fins, …
