Food is distributed fairly and meals are shared. The people worked on farms and learned a useful trade such as weaving or carpentry. They work days were 6 hours and they shared the work load equally. The only citizens exempted from manual labor are those who show intellectual promises and they study to become priest who could be male or female. The priest conducted services, educate the children act as moral and spiritual guides. Utopians spend their free time to learning and exploring in…

As explained above, the governing equations of the gas mixture that include continuity, momentum and mass fraction of the components, are solved at first. Transient conservation equations are as follow: Mass conservation (1) (∂(ε(1-s)ρ_g))/∂t+∇.(ρ_g u ⃗_g )=S_m In this equation u ⃗_g is superficial velocity vector of gas mixture, which related to intrinsic fluid velocity U as following: (2) (u_g ) ⃗=ε(1-s)U ⃗ In the gas transfer channel, the porosity is equal one and the liquid water volume fraction…

Fig.\ref{Str_1_T} compares the jet trajectory measurement for the open nozzle configuration at the two blower velocities. Fig.\ref{Str_1_W} compares the weight distribution along the centerline axis, normalized with respect to the total mass distributed. Fig.\ref{Profiles_1}.a shows the centerline profile of the straw distribution on the ground, normalized to their respective maximum weights and Fig.\ref{Profiles_1}.b shows the jet spreading along curvilinear trajectory $\zeta$.…
