Volume 12, Issue 3 , September 2022, , Pages 331-349

https://doi.org/10.22067/jam.2021.67389.1000

Abstract
  IntroductionCyclone separators use the centrifugal force generated by the gas flow stream to separate the particles from their carrier gas. Simple design, low capital, and easy maintenance make them ideal for use as a valuable pre-refining or sedimentation device. The cause of the particles moving towards ...  Read More

S. Naimei Dizajyekan; Gh. Shahgholi; A. Rezvanivand fanaei; V. Rostampour

Volume 11, Issue 2 , 2021, , Pages 231-246

https://doi.org/10.22067/jam.v11i2.79613

Abstract
  IntroductionCyclones are widely used to separate solid particles from the fluid phase. Due to the ease of construction, low running costs, and hard-working conditions at high temperatures, people's interest in using cyclones is increasing day by day. Engineers are generally interested in two parameters ...  Read More

Study of The Vapor Thermo-Compressor to Reduce Energy Consumption in the Sugar Production Line using Computational Fluid Dynamics

A. Rezvanivand fanaei; A. Hasanpour; A. M. Nikbakht

Volume 10, Issue 2 , 2020, , Pages 241-253

https://doi.org/10.22067/jam.v10i2.76872

Abstract
  IntroductionLarge industrial factories often discharge significant quantities of low-pressure steam (dead steam) into the atmosphere, which causes energy losses. Retaining low-pressure steam content reduces boiler load, resulting in energy savings and lower costs for the fuel consumption (for example, ...  Read More
