The effects of magnesium vapor pressure, condensation temperature, and condensation zone temperature gradient on magnesium vapor nucleation in phase transitions and condensation from atomic collision and coacervation with collision under vacuum conditions were discussed. Magnesium powder and magnesium lump condensates were produced under different conditions and characterized by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy （EDS）. The right condensation zone temperature approach to the liquid transition primarily improved the magnesium vapor concentration rate. The gas-solid phase transition was primarily inhibited by setting a small condenser temperature gradient. Under the right condensation temperature and temperature gradients, increasing magnesium vapor partial pressure improved crystallization and reduced the oxidation rate.展开更多

The findings of the computational fluid dynamics（CFD） simulations were compared with the published experimental data and fairly good agreement was observed between the two,thus validating the condensation model.The results of CFD simulations for dimensionless penetration length of steam plume varies from 2.73-7.33,while the condensation heat transfer coefficient varies from 0.75-0.917 MW·（m ^2 ·K）^ -1 for water temperature in the range of 293-343 K.展开更多

The relative heattransfer coefficients of condensation on corrugation plates were calculated in contrast withequivalent vertical plane ones. The heat transfer enhancement effects for the main geometricparameters such as pitch, height, corrugation angle, tilt angle, and fillet radii of corrugationswere analyzed to guide the optimization of corrugation structure for application. A two-scalecorrugation is suggested, which can compromise both the enhanced heat transfer effect and adequatecross section area for flows, and it makes the heat transfer coefficient 1 to 2 times more than thatof an equivalent plane one.展开更多

The effects of magnesium vapor pressure, condensation temperature, and condensation zone temperature gradient on magnesium vapor nucleation in phase transitions and condensation from atomic collision and coacervation with collision under vacuum conditions were discussed. Magnesium powder and magnesium lump condensates were produced under different conditions and characterized by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy （EDS）. The right condensation zone temperature approach to the liquid transition primarily improved the magnesium vapor concentration rate. The gas-solid phase transition was primarily inhibited by setting a small condenser temperature gradient. Under the right condensation temperature and temperature gradients, increasing magnesium vapor partial pressure improved crystallization and reduced the oxidation rate.
文摘The phenomenon of direct-contact condensation,used in steam driven jet injectors,nuclear reactor emergency core cooling systems and direct-contact heat exchangers,was investigated computationally by introducing a thermal equilibrium model for direct-contact condensation of steam in subcooled water.The condensation model presented was a two resistance model which takes care of the heat transfer process on both sides of the interface and uses a variable steam bubble diameter.The injection of supersonic steam jet in subcooled water tank was simulated using the Euler-Euler multiphase flow model of Fluent 6.3 code with the condensation model incorporated. The findings of the computational fluid dynamics（CFD） simulations were compared with the published experimental data and fairly good agreement was observed between the two,thus validating the condensation model.The results of CFD simulations for dimensionless penetration length of steam plume varies from 2.73-7.33,while the condensation heat transfer coefficient varies from 0.75-0.917 MW·（m ^2 ·K）^ -1 for water temperature in the range of 293-343 K.

文摘Taking an extratropical cyclone that produced extreme precipitation as the research object,this paper calculates the contribution of condensation latent heat release(LHR)to relative vorticity tendency based on the complete-form vertical vorticity tendency equation.The results show that the heating rate of convectional condensation LHR can reach up to about 40 times that of stable condensation LHR.Both the stable and convectional heating centers are higher than 700 hPa,which would cause∂Q/∂z>0 and a positive vorticity source in the lower troposphere.The vertical gradient of stable condensation LHR contributes little to the growth of relative vorticity,while the relative vorticity tendency associated with the vertical gradient of convectional condensation LHR can be an order of magnitude higher than the former.The positive vorticity source is always located right below the latent heating center,and its maximum value can always be found in the lower troposphere.Convectional LHR is the primary factor for cyclone development from the perspective of diabatic heating.The horizontal gradient of total condensation LHR can contribute about 65%of the actual vorticity growth,but the effect of the vertical gradient of convectional condensation(LHR)can reach twice as much.The adiabatic heating from LHR can cause vorticity tendency directly.However,it can also change the vertical and horizontal gradient of potential temperature,which can further induce vorticity tendency.

文摘Herein,we discovered that the surface-confined condensation of boronic acid can happen spontaneously at room temperature,by comparing the kinetics of condensation of boronic acids with and without the negative sample bias,we found that the negative sample bias indeed accelerates the self-condensation reaction of boronic acid.Combining with in-situ STM images and ultraviolet photoemission spectrum(UPS)analysis,a reversible adsorption mechanism model was proposed and reasonably explains the reversible electric-field-induced phase transformation.

文摘A mathematical model was established for condensation on surfaces of verticalcorrugated plates based on the mechanism of heat transfer enhancement to thin down the liquid filmdue to surface tension effect between corrugated plate surfaces and liquid films. The relative heattransfer coefficients of condensation on corrugation plates were calculated in contrast withequivalent vertical plane ones. The heat transfer enhancement effects for the main geometricparameters such as pitch, height, corrugation angle, tilt angle, and fillet radii of corrugationswere analyzed to guide the optimization of corrugation structure for application. A two-scalecorrugation is suggested, which can compromise both the enhanced heat transfer effect and adequatecross section area for flows, and it makes the heat transfer coefficient 1 to 2 times more than thatof an equivalent plane one.

文摘Metal organic frameworks（MOFs） are an important platform for heterogeneous catalysts.Although MOFs with a smaller particle size exhibit better catalytic performance because of less diffusion limitations,their separation and recycling after catalytic reactions are difficult.The integration of MOFs with magnetic nanoparticles could facilitate their recovery and separation.Especially,the shell thickness of the core-shell structured composites is controllable.In this study,amino-functionalized Fe3O4@Cu3（BTC）2 was fabricated by a stepwise assembly method and its catalytic performance in Knoevenagel condensation was investigated.The results demonstrated that the magnetic hybrid material exhibited a core-shell structure,with a shell thickness of about 2 00 nm.Furthermore,it not only exhibited high catalytic activity,but remarkably,it could also be easily recovered magnetically and recycled without obvious loss of catalytic efficiency after three cycles.
