Abstract
Diesel exhaust particles are a complex mixture of thousands of gases and fine substances that contain more
than 40 different environmental contaminants. Being exposed to these exhaust particles (called soot) can
cause lung damage and respiratory problems. Diesel particulate filters are used in many countries for
mobile sources as a legal obligation to decrease harmful effect of these fine particles. The size range of
these particles is varied from 0.01 to 1 µm. Moreover, it takes a long time to be settled when they are
outspread in atmosphere. In this paper, homogeneous plane standing waves are used to coagulate nano
particles in order to achieve larger size which has a better gravitational settling. It means that fine particles
are converted into a large one. Theoretical mechanisms are studied which led to experimental results in
155(db) and 160 (db). The results show that acoustic precipitators have a good performance in removing
fine particles in diesel exhaust. Additionally, they indicate that at high pressure levels, the system has high
efficiency for removing fine particles

Abstract
Oil pump in diesel engine has significant effect on energy consumption and environment pollution. In this
paper, the modeling and simulation of a gear oil pump used in a diesel engine and its fluid flow analysis by
a solver has been explained. Also the optimization and redesign of it has been discussed and then the
outcomes have been compared with the experimental and previous results. The type of this oil pump is
external gear pump with involute tooth profile, so we need to use the gears with the minimum number of
tooth to optimize the pump performance and getting the optimum displacement volume rate of it. While the
engaged gears of the pump rotating together, the intersection between them changes in time. So their
boundaries should be considered as movable. The strategy used here consist in using dynamic meshes,
dividing a tooth rotating cycle into a certain number of time steps and investigating the flow and getting the
results for each time steps.
