Advancements in rocket propulsion have been the key factor for the scientific progress especially in space exploration and communication. The continued quest to achieve higher propulsion velocities at low cost still provides the room to the scientists and engineers to work on the development in the design of thrust chamber of a rocket engine. Given the high manufacturing and operational cost of rocket engines, precise knowledge of the chamber dynamics, propellants flow and feed system, heat transfer and structural integrity are important. During operations the thrust chamber experiences high temperatures and pressures, thus a reliable design requires adequate knowledge of the flow and combustion physics inside the chamber. A number of ways have been employed by the researchers to optimize heat transfer and performance of the engine. Generally regenerative cooling along with film cooling are used for safe operation.For small LPREs with small mass flow rates of the coolant, safety of the chamber wall becomes challenging job. Structural integrity can be attained by specific heat transfer rate and efficient combustion will give better performance. Numerical estimation of heat transfer using commercial software may be help for design and mounting instrumentation for experimentation at proper place. However one requires an integrated design tool for designing a thrust chamber with optimal performance ensuring adequate thrust, structural integrity and efficient cooling. For optimization of such a thrust chamber, couple fluid-structure-heat transfer analysis is often complicated and requires huge computational resources using commercial software. The combustion chemistry is often approximated through one dimensional theory. Generally experimental/empirical correlations are used for heat transfer rate calculations or one has to rely on expensive testing to validate structural design and safe operation. However the high cost involved with experimentation and manufacturing of even a small chamber, an integrated tool for optimal design of thrust chamber can be helpful. The optimized geometry can be numerically simulated for confirmation before leading to actual use. The integrated design tool can help in obtaining optimal thrust under given dimensional and flow constrains with adequate heat transfer rates ensuring low design cost. The major aim of this research work was to develop an in-house integrated software tool for the design and optimization of the coolant channel configuration of thrust chamber of a rocket engine. However, the study also includes the experimentation and CFD study for the validation of the tool developed. The developed integrated tool includes seven modules providing optimal performance parameters for a given thrust chamber design. The modules include combustion chemistry, flow dynamics, heat transfer and optimal cooling channels design for a given thrust chamber shape. Here the results obtained from the integrated tool have been verified using own computational fluid dynamics results and experimental data as well as the published results available in the literature. Amongst the important parameters, heat transfer rate within the thrust chamber is key design parameter. Here focus is on the prediction of heat transfer rates and surface temperatures of both coolant and thrust chamber. Thus results for the heat transfer rates and heat transfer coefficients are compared with published results, numerical simulations and experimental data. Further calculations for the optimized coolant geometry have been carried out based on the heat transfer, flow rate and pressure drop across the coolant channel. The results indicate that the predicted geometry offers safe operation of the thrust chamber. The integrated tool developed in this study is intelligent enough to optimize a number of coolant channel flow configurations with different coolants and fuels within a short time.

ہاں ہاں زرداری مجرم ہے

ہاں ہاں زرداری مجرم ہے ؟

                                                                                                پروفیسر ڈاکٹر محمد یوسف اعوان

بندوق والوں کا مجرم ؟                           فتوے والوں کا مجرم ؟

زرداری ان سب کا مجرم ہے جن کا بھٹو مجرم تھا ،بے نظیر مجرم تھی ،مرتضی مجرم تھا ،شاہنواز مجرم تھا ،سلمان تاثیر مجرم تھا ،شہباز بھٹی مجرم تھا ،بشیر بلور مجرم تھا،زرداری کو ہر طرح سے توڑا گیا ،گیارہ سال جیل میں رکھ کر ،بھیانک جھوٹے مقدمے بنا کر ،بدترین تشدد کا نشانہ بنا کر ،جیل سے نکال کر وزارت کا حلف اٹھوا کر ،بالآ خر ایوان صدر میں قید کر کے ۔

مگر وہ نہ ٹوٹا ،نہ جھکا نہ بکا بلکہ نا کام دشمن اس کی مسکراہٹ تک نہ توڑ سکے ۔اس پر طرح طرح کے مقدمے بنائے گئے ،مقدمے خود ساختہ ،قاضی اپنے مگر کچھ ثابت نہ کر سکے ،زرداری کی جوانی چھن گئی مگر سچ کا بول بالا ہوا وہ ڈٹا رہا مگر دشمن ہار ماننے والے کب تھے ۔انہوں نے پرکشش الزامات پر مبنی کہانیاں گھڑیں ،میڈیا پر بیٹھے افلاطونوں کو حکم دیا کہ دن رات ان کی کہانیوں کا ڈھنڈورا پیٹو ،اتنا جھوٹ بولو ،بار بار بولو ،لاکھوں بار بولو، جھوٹ کو سچ بنا دو ،بچے بچے کو یاد کروا دو کہ زرداری برا ہے زرداری چور ہے زرداری کرپٹ ہے ۔

مگر وہ نہیں جانتے تھے کہ زرداری کا مقدمہ تاریخ کی عدالت میں ہے ۔تاریخ کی عدالت کسی کی خواہشات کی غلام نہیں ہے ۔تاریخ کی عدالت ثبوت مانگتی ہے ۔تاریخ کی عدالت سچ کو اجاگر کر کے چھوڑتی ہے ۔تاریخ کی عدالت وقت کے فرعون کی طرف سے جھوٹے الزامات کو اٹھا کر باہر پھینک دیتی ہے تاریخ کی عدالت ہر ایک مجرم اور ہر ایک ملزم کو کٹہرے...

سیدہ زینب ؓ کا رسول اللہﷺ سے نکاح اور مستشرقین

Many western scholars have tried to interpret the Holy Qur’an into other languages of the world. William Montgomery Watt and Robert Spencer are included in the list of those commentators of the Qur’an who have presented their Quranic commentary in English language. But while interpreting the verses of the Holy Qur’an about the life, character and teachings of the Holy Prophet both the scholars have fabricated the teachings of the Holy Qur’an. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the interpretation of both western writers about the verses of Sūrah al-Aḥzāb in which the necessary information about the marriage of Prophet Muhammad with Hazrat Zainab has been discussed. Through the text analysis method and comparative and analytical approach, this article has raised some of the errors and propaganda elements found in the commentaries of both the Western scholars. The article proves that the writings of Western scholars like this need to be refined and scrutinized carefully in maintaining the sanctity of Islam and respecting the rights of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). This paper concludes that all such allegations are either based on fabricated historical reports or false interpretations and misunderstanding of the facts.

Impact of celebrity Endorsement, Advertisement and Sales Promotion on Brand Equity: Mediating Effect of Brand Image

In present scenario, customers are well aware about the price and feature of all the substitute of a product. They have more awareness, more accessibility to the various brands in market. Generic competition among the products has made the competition tougher. The aim of this work is to understand the effect of optimum brand promotional activities to improve brand equity. Students enrolled in university in faculty of management sciences were considered as target population. Respondents were selected on the basis of non-probability convenience based sampling technique. A survey questionnaire was conducted. The number of respondents was 273 which were included in the study. Reliability test, descriptive analysis, factor analysis and regression analysis used for data interpretation. SPSS 20 version software was used for data analysis. It is concluded from the study that celebrity endorsement, advertisement and sales promotion have significant effect on brand image, brand awareness, brand association, brand loyalty and perceived quality. Brand image has significant positive effect on brand awareness, brand association, perceived quality and brand loyalty. It is further evident that brand image has partial mediating effect on brand awareness, brand association and brand loyalty through advertisement, celebrity endorsement and sales promotions. Brand image has mediating effect on perceived quality through celebrity endorsement, advertisement and sales promotion. The results of this study will help out the brand managers and marketing managers in beverage industry for designing and launching the promotional mix. The study has been conducted in only one metropolitan city of Pakistan. Respondents may be different in different cities due to their change in life style and preferences. Future researchers can conduct the same study in different cities or at national level.
