Within the scientific and cultural activity of the second semester for the academic year 2017-2018, the Department of Chemical Engineering held a seminar in which the PHD student Huda Kazem presents a lecture entitled " CFD& Experimental Study the Effect of Nano Material on Drag Force of Iraqi Crude Oil Flow"

The seminar was held on Al-Khawarumi with the attendance of the head of the department Assc.Prof.Dr.Jamal Mana and bout scientific and administrative deputies Assc.Prof.Dr.Khalid Ajmi and Assc.Prof.Dr.Walla Abdul-Hadi and number of faculty.

In this study, the student studied the effect of the addition of nanoparticles to improve the behavior of Iraqi crude oil flow by reducing the relative pressure of the friction losses. Several variables were changed and their effect was calculated on pressure drop values and determines the best conditions to obtain the best results. The variables adopted the size of the tube and concentrations of nanoparticles and different types of nano and the rate of crude oil

Prof.Dr.Abdul-Razaq Abdul-Jalel Al-Esa appreciated teachers and staff of the university of technology and they are; Assc.Prof.Dr.Dari Yousif, Assc.Prof.Dr.Mouad RazokI, Assc.Prof.Dr.Jammal Mana, Assc.Prof.Dr.Azad Raheem, Assc.Prof.Dr.Wesam Kadhim, Assc.Prof.Dr.Nisreen Salih, Assc.Prof.Dr.Ahmad Ali and Hisham Saleem and the legal Zaid Riyad.

It is to appreciate your efforts in the development of curricula and the development of engineering departments in government and private colleges in addition to the developments in postgraduate studies. We would like to extend our thanks and appreciation for those efforts. We wish you success, success and payment in the service of our beloved Iraq.

50 trainees representing the public and private universities and the Ministry of Education have participated in the teaching methods course which was held at the Center for Continuing Education / University of Technology from Apr.15-26/2018.

The course aims at training the teaching staff on modern education strategies and teaching methods that will raise the level of education in Iraqi universities and raise the standards and skills of teaching teachers.

Assc.Prof.Dr. Farhad Mohamed, The manager of the center, said that the course provides a range of effective test designs and educational activities that can be practiced in the educational situation as well as training the owners on presentation skills and presentation of the scientific material.

The course was presented by Dr.Sahira Abbas and number of experts in teaching methods.

Prof.Dr.Fadhil Ateya and Assc.Prof.Dr.Akram Raheem, both are lecturers at the material engineering department at the university of technology, have published a joint research titled " --------------" in Babil University's Magazine/ Engineering sciences in its second volume -2017.

The study investigated the preparation of powders of the lithium-barium phosphate using the self-combustion liquid gel technique and used XRD and VSM to verify the overlapping and magnetic properties of the overlapping components.

Materials Engineering Department at the University of Technology started the activities of the seventh cultural season under the slogan "to activate the spirit of creativity for all faculty and staff of the department" in the hall of the late Prof.DR. Fadhel Ateya and continued for five days included the first day to hold a seminar PHD students in the research course to see the latest developments of their researches and what the obstacles facing them and creating the necessary conditions to complete the research requirements. The activities of the second day were a joint cooperation between the department and the office of EGMA by holding an exhibition of engineering materials of German origin, which are used in various fields. By the end of the festival, the head of the department gave certificates of appreciation to the participants.

In the third day, there was an awareness lecture on "personal styles and methods of dealing with each style", presented by international coach Thamer Hasani Al-Sharqi and he gave a detailed explanation of personality patterns and how to analyze each character and methods of dealing with them followed by a test analysis on a number of attendees, and the fourth day included events For students, teachers and employees. It is a variety of sports and intellectual competitions enjoyed by participants and attendees. It was attended by many teachers, employees and students. The prizes were distributed to the winners by a president. The last resort to host a group of children who are orphans of flowers to the orphanage house within a paragraph "happiest orphan" and enjoy the kids orphans multiple recreational and valuable gifts to paragraphs at the end of the visit were taken a tour around the University of Technology, including the university stadium and student café.
