Numerical Modelling of Coupled Heat and Mass Transfer in Porous Materials: Application to Cinder Block Bricks

引用

Open Journal of Applied Sciences 2024年第9期14卷 2360-2373页

作者： Benjamin Kiema Ousmane Coulibaly xavier Chesneau Belkacem Zeghmati Laboratory of Environmental Physics and Chemistry (LPCE) Department of Physics Joseph KI-ZERBO University Ouagadougou Burkina Faso Laboratory of Modelling Pluridisciplinary and simulation (LAMPS) University of Perpignan Via Domitia Perpignan France

In this work, we present numerical modelling of coupled heat and mass transfer within porous materials. Our study focuses on cinder block bricks generally used in building construction. The material is assumed to be placed in air. Moisture content and temperature have been chosen as the main transfer drivers and the equations governing these transfer drivers are based on the Luikov model. These equations are solved by an implicit finite difference scheme. A Fortran code associated with the Thomas algorithm was used to solve the equations. The results show that heat and mass transfer depend on the temperature of the air in contact with the material. As this air temperature rises, the temperature within the material increases, and more rapidly at the material surface. Also, thermal conductivity plays a very important role in the thermal conduction of building materials and influences heat and mass transfer in these materials. Materials with higher thermal conductivity diffuse more heat.

Objectives:Elevated circulating DNA(cirDNA)concentrations were found to be associated with trauma or tissue damage which suggests involvement of inflammation or cell death in post-operative cirDNA *** carried out the first prospective,multicenter study of the dynamics of cirDNA and neutrophil extracellular trap(NETs)markers during the perioperative period from 24 h before surgery up to 72 h after curative surgery in cancer ***:We examined the plasma levels of two NETs protein markers[myeloperoxidase(MPO)and neutrophil elastase(NE)],as well as levels of cirDNA of nuclear(cir-nDNA)and mitochondrial(cir-mtDNA)origin in 29 colon,prostate,and breast cancer patients and in 114 healthy individuals(HI).Results:The synergistic analytical information provided by these markers revealed that:(i)NETs formation contributes to post-surgery conditions;(i)post-surgery cir-nDNA levels were highly associated with NE and MPO in colon cancer[r=0.60(P<0.001)and r=0.53(P<0.01),respectivelyl,but not in prostate and breast cancer;(i)each tumor type shows a specific pattern of cir-nDNA and NETs marker dynamics,but overall the pre-and post-surgery median values of cir-nDNA,NE,and MPO were significantly higher in cancer patients than in ***:Taken as a whole,our work reveals the association of NETs formation with the elevated cir-nDNA release during a cancer patient's perioperative period,depending on surgical procedure or cancer *** contrast,cir-mtDNA is poorly associated with NETs formation in the studied perioperative period,which would appear to indicate a different mechanism of release or suggest mitochondrial dysfunction.

Analysis of the Energy and Environmental Sustainability of a Built Space System: The Case of Patte d’Oie University Campus in Ouagadougou

引用

Energy and Power Engineering 2024年第5期16卷 197-215页

作者： Daouda Sawadogo Ousmane Coulibaly xavier Chesneau Belkacem Zeghmati Laboratoire de Physique et de Chimie de l’ Environnement (LPCE) Department of Physics Universit&#233 Joseph KI-ZERBO Ouagadougou Burkina Faso Multidisciplinary Modeling and Simulation Laboratory (LAMPS) Mechanics and Energetics Group (GME) Universit&#233 Perpignan Via Domitia Perpignan France

The aim of this study was to carry out a dynamic simulation of the energy and environmental performance of a built space system, with a view to assessing its energy and environmental class. The use of a simulation and modeling tool, supported by various methodological references, formed the basis of our approach. Adopting a systemic perspective, we described the structural and functional aspects of the systems making up built spaces, as well as the associated energy flows. Our approach was also based on a typology, taking into account typical days, structural and functional configurations at different scales and angles of observation. The analysis tool we developed in Java was applied to the built space system of the Patte d’Oie university campus in Ouagadougou. Annual electricity consumption was measured at 124387.34 kWh, closely aligned with the average annual electricity bill (125224.31 kWh), with a maximum relative deviation of 1%, followed by a carbon emission balance of 58337.66 kg eq CO2 per year. This validation confirmed the effectiveness of our tool. In addition, following the analysis of electricity consumption using our tool, the university campus was classified in energy class B and environmental class C. These results will be based on the emission factors of the energy mix of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) territory, with particular emphasis on Burkina Faso.
