The first represents one species growth in the patch Ω and periodic environment and with delays recruitment, the second models a single species dispersal among the m patches of a heterogeneous environment, and the third models the spread of bacterial infections. Sufficient conditions for the global attractivity of periodic solution are obtained by the method of monotone theory and strongly concave operators. Some earlier results are extended to population models with delays and diffusion.展开更多

Model simulations are presented for a wide range of ambient conditions that include inlet wind speed, inlet temperature and relative humidity. Simulation results provide an insight into the desirable water flow rates and air-to-water loadings for comfort zone tem-peratures and relative humidity levels at the exit of the wind tower. Simulations show wind towers with variable cross-sections provide an increase in the cooling power for the same inlet wind speed, inlet air temperature and relative humidity when compared to wind towers with a constant cross-section. The study shall lead to a better understanding to designing wind towers that are both environmentally friendly and energy efficient.展开更多
