In this study, heat transfer and pressure drop through the four-row fin tube bundle with annular elliptical fins in a triangular layout were investigated. Five different geometries in three fin densities for four different Reynolds numbers were simulated. For circular fins, results are in good agreement with empirical equations in predicting pressure drop and heat transfer. In this regard, the elliptical fins were also examined. It was found that the Nusselt numbers in horizontal elliptical fins are the least and in vertical are the highest. It was also found that pressure drop in the circular fins is higher than in horizontal or vertical elliptical fins and the vertical elliptical fins in comparison with circular fins with the same vertical diameter, exert less pressure drop. Furthermore, although the heat transfer coefficient in horizontal elliptical fins is slightly less than in circular fins, the pressure drop can be as much as 70%. The performance evaluation criterion shows that the circular fin performance is much lower compared with the elliptical fin. Finally, equations are proposed to predict the pressure drop and heat transfer coefficient for elliptical fins relative to circular fins

The Khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is a serious pest of grains such as wheat. In the present study, the lethal and sub-lethal effects of Vitex agnus-castus L. essential oil were studied against T. granarium first instar larvae. To investigate the sub-lethal effects, the first instar larvae were exposed to the LC30 concentration of the essential oil and the biological parameters of the surviving insects were determined. Vitex agnus-castus essential oil had high fumigant toxicity for first-instar larvae of T. granarium (LC50: 132.14 µl/L air). In addition, V. agnus-castus L. had low mortality time (LT50: 17.27 h), indicating rapid effects of the compound. The larval period of individuals who came from first instar larvae exposed to V. agnus-castus essential oil was significantly longer than control. Also, exposure to the sub-lethal concentration of the tested essential oil significantly reduced the survival of the immature stages, adults’ longevity, and reproduction of adult females. The net reproductive rate (R0), intrinsic rate of increase (r), and finite rate of increase (λ) in the population came from larvae exposed to the essential oil of V. agnus-castus essential oil were 4.02 eggs/female, 0.016 day-1 and 1.016 day-1, respectively, that was significantly lower than the control population (27.55 eggs/female, 0.055 day-1 and 1.056 day-1, respectively). Also, the mean generation time of the essential oil-treated population was about 22 days longer than the control population. According to our findings, V. agnus-castus essential oil is highly toxic to T. granarium larvae and appears to contain a Juvenile hormone analog that is useful for effective control of T. granarium populations in storage systems.

The Khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae), is a serious pest of cereal grains such as wheat. In the present research, the lethal and sublethal effects of essential oils (EOs) from Piper nigrum L. and Artemisia khorassanica Podl. were determined against 1st instar larvae of T. granarium. To study the sublethal effects, 1st instar larvae were exposed to the LC30 of each EO, and the life table parameters of the surviving insects were assessed. Artemisia khorassanica (LC50: 39.88 μl/liter air) had higher fumigant toxicity for T. granarium when compared to P. nigrum (LC50: 71.46 μl/liter air). Furthermore, the insecticidal effects of A. khorassanica (LT50: 13.51 h) were faster than P. nigrum (LT50: 15.75 h). Significant differences in the larval and pupal durations were observed in the EO treatments when compared to the control. In addition, the exposure to sublethal concentration of the EOs tested significantly reduced immature survival rate, adult longevity and fecundity. The net reproductive rate (R0), intrinsic rate of increase (r) and finite rate of increase (λ) was significantly affected by EOs tested being lowest in the insects exposed to A. khorassanica. According to our findings, both EOs tested, especially A. khorassanica, are useful for the effective control of T. granarium in warehouses.

How organizations have interact each other is defiend in the region of organizing and inter-organizational relationship. There are two basic approaches to this issue: competition and collaboration. In the former, organizations are Competitors that compete each other to achieve their own goals. In the latter, the relationship between organizations is defined according to achieve common benefits and therefore, instead of competition, the organizations collaborate with each other.
An operational solution to develop collaborative trust-based relationships is Collaborative inter-organizational networks. In a collaborative network, all of the partners are considered as a unit identity in which the capacities and competeces of every member are used to gain competevie advanteges and maximise performance of the whole network.
Using the strategy of Grounded theory , this research represents the conceptual model of collaborative network in case of Aerospace. Three cheif part of this model are systematic design of stable network, strategic alliance and regulated and committed collaboration

Subterranean termites are one of the most important pests of buildings, historic monuments and agricultural crops in some parts of Iran. Using entomopathogenic fungi as microbial insecticides is usually a part of biological control and insect pest management. The pathogenicity of entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin (DEMI 001) isolated from Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Oliver) was compared against two subterranean termites, Amitermes vilis (Hagen) and Microcerotermes gabrielis (Weidner) under laboratory conditions. Suspensions of the fungus spores at five concentrations of 101, 102, 103, 104, 106 spores ml-1 were prepared to define LC50 and LT50. To determine LC50 and LT50 of M. anisopliae, bioassays were carried out on worker casts of both termite species. LC50 values for A. vilis and M. gabrielis were 8.5 × 103 and 0.2 × 102 spores ml-1, respectively. LT50 value for M. gabrielis was shorter than that of A. vilis at all five concentrations tested. According to the results of the bioassay, M. anisopliae was more effective for controlling M. gabrielis than that for A. vilis.
