The study was conducted to investigate the impact of Ca(NO₃)₂ on  different levels of salt-stress in date palm. Three-years-old date palm plants were subjected to four NaCl levels: 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM. The saline solutions were supplemented with 0, 5, 10 and 20 mM Ca(NO₃)₂. The combined NaCl/Ca(NO₃)₂ treatments were conducted over a period of 10 weeks. Control plants were only subjected to the four salinity levels with no Ca (NO₃)₂ addition. Results showed an inhibitory effect of salinity on almost all plants' parameters under inve

The design, construction and investigation of experimental study of two compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) with tubular absorber have been presented. The performance of CPCs have been evaluated by using outdoor experimental measurements including the instantaneous thermal efficiency. The two CPCs are tested instantly by holding them on a common structure. Many tests are conducted in the present work by truncating one of them in three different levels. For each truncation the acceptance half angle (θ_c) was changed. Geometrically, the acceptance half angle for standard CPC is (26^o). For the truncation levels for the other CPC 1, 2 and 3 the acceptance half angle were 20^o, 26^o and 5

A new design concept for a percolator is developed which combine the simultaneous production of ammonia vapor plus the pumping of weak aqua ammonia liquid. The steady state desig was based on a balance between the hydrostatic driving head and the total single and two-phase pressure losses in the percolator system. To accomplish this, the results from modeling of the driving pressure and pressure losses, using the separated flow and drift flux methods were compared with the experimental measurements. The Chisholm's model was the best in predicting the measured flow rate versus water level for first stage with a maximum standard deviation of ± 10.1% and was adopted for the theoretical calculations. Parametric design studies that include t

The research investigated the effect of magnetic mirror configuration on the properties of plasma formed in a dielectric barrier discharge  (DBD) actuator under atmospheric pressure. The discharge was formed when a high alternating voltage of 22 kV at a frequency of 9 kHz was applied between the electrodes under atmospheric pressure. The magnetic mirror was created when two permanent magnets were placed behind the electrodes. Plasma emission spectra were detected using a photoemission spectrometer at different horizontal distances (D) between the dielectric and the actuator, ranging from 0 to 5 cm. The effect of the magnetic mirror on the plasma properties at different horizontal distances was studied. The results indicated that the val

The results show the inability to apply the Taylor rule within inflation and GDP Gaps because the monetary behave is elated from the Iraqi economy.

When applying the Taylor rule to exchange rate with the inflation and the output gap, the results do not match the nominal price announced by the central thing, which proves the lack of commitment by the Central Bank by using the Taylor rule, whether short-run interest rate or exchange rate (Nominal Anchor),  so it did not stay to the Iraqi Central Bank only using the principle of Taylor with the expected inflation rate below the level of output (Macro activity) for the separation of monetary behavior from the real one o
