The results showed that the polarization cross of lotus-seed starch granules was weakening gradually with increasing the treatment time, which indicated the termination of their ordered crystallite structures. The morphologies of granules were collapsed once the UHP was kept at 500 MPa for 60 minutes. The particle size analysis demonstrated that the granule size and distribution of lotus-seed starches increased as the treatment time was prolonged. X-ray diffraction studies showed that the intensity of the feature diffraction peaks of starch decreased and eventually disappeared with increasing the treatment time, and B-type transformation pattern was observed. The Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) analysis of starch showed that the UHP is a physical modification processing because no new groups formed. The research showed that UHP processing at certain degree is capable to achieve the modification of lotus-seed starch. It is of significance for the deep processing of lotus-seed products.展开更多

Consumption of cheeses, such as the popular Hispanic-style cheese Queso Fresco (QF), may be a vehicle for delivery of these milk-associated peptides. This paper describes the effects of high-pressure processing (HPP) on the antioxidative activity (ORAC- FL value) of water-soluble proteins extracted from QF samples. QFs were manufactured according to a commercial-make procedure using pasteurized, homogenized milk, without added starter cultures. The cheese was cut into 45 × 45 × 150 mm3 blocks, double packaged in vacuum bags, and received the following HPP treatments: 200, 400, or 600 MPa for either 0, 5, 10, or 20 min, with warming to an internal temperature of either 22℃ or 40℃ prior to HPP treatment. Results show that the core temperature of the cheese during HPP directly affects the ORAC-FL value. The activities of the lower temperature cheeses are independent of time and pressure, and have a median ORAC-FL value of 27 trolox equivalents (TE). The higher temperature cheeses have higher ORAC-FL values ranging from 21.5 to 96.0 TE;the highest activity corresponded to the cheese held at 400 MPa for the longest time under pressure (20 min). The 600 MPa cheeses increase in activity with increasing time under pressure, but are less active than the control cheese. These results indicate that processing temperature and pressure are important factors in the antioxidative activity of these QF samples and further understanding of the roles of these variables may lead to the manufacture of healthier and more nutritious cheeses and dairy products.展开更多

Transient pressure measurements from PDG are characterized by long term and high volume data. These data are recorded under unconstrained circumstances, so effects due to noise, rate fluctuation and interference from other wells cannot be avoided. These effects make the measured pressure trends decline or rise and then obscure or distort the actual flow behavior, which makes subsequent analysis difficult. In this paper, the problems encountered in analysis of PDG transient pressure are investigated. A newly developed workflow for processing and analyzing PDG transient pressure data is proposed. Numerical well testing synthetic studies are performed to demonstrate these procedures. The results prove that this new technique works well and the potential for practical application looks very promising.展开更多

In APPP, the removal footprint and removal rate are critical to the capability and efficiency of the figuring of the optical surface. In this paper, an atmospheric plasma torch, which can work in both remote mode and contact mode, is presented. The footprints and the removal rates of both modes are compared by profilometer measurements. The influences of process recipes and substrate thickness for both modes are investigated through a series of experiments. When the substrate is thinner than 12 mm, the removal rate in contact mode is higher. However, the removal rate and width of the footprint decrease dramatically as the substrate thickness increases in contact mode.展开更多

Also, comparing high-pressure-induced jam (HP-jam) and heat-induced jam (H-jam) were evaluated. It was found that firmness of the peach decreased greatly when soaked at pH 2.0 〉 heated 〉 soaked at pH 2.2 or 2.5 〉 pressurized, respectively. About 88% of the peach pectin was water-soluble-pectin and high-methoxyl pectin, while low-methoxyl pectin was slight. During pressurization, the pectin did not change. However, pectin degraded through hydrolysis during heating; consequently, the middle lamella separated. Also, eight kinds of peach jam (65% sugar, pH 2.0 or pH 2.2, and 50% or 60% sugar, pH 2.5) were compared. Both color and flavor of HP-jam were better than H-jam. As the pH values were lower, L-, a-, b-values of jam became higher, and the jam became pinker. Raw peach contained about 0.3%-0.4% pectin, therefore, an addition of 0.6% pectin was needed for both HP- and H-jams. However, there was no great difference in rheology or sensory evaluation between HP- and H-jams.展开更多

When the chamber pressure is lower than pcrit or higher than Pimpe Nm tends to be the maximum or minimum value and remains almost unchanged. However, declines sharply with the increase of the chamber pressure when pcrit<P<Pimpe. A method has been put forward to calculate the pcrit and pimpe of Al evaporation in a Ni-XAI (x=25-50 at. pct) melt. The calculation result shows that the pcrit or pimpe is a second-order function of the molar percentage of Al and the melting temperature.展开更多

The effects of the holding time, chamber pressure, mole fraction of Al and melting temperature on the real vapor pressure of Al in the vacuum chamber were analyzed. Because of the impeding effect of the real vapor pressure on the evaporation loss rate, within a short time (less than 10 s), the real vapor pressure tends to a constant value. When the chamber pressure is less than the saturated vapor pressure of Al, the real vapor pressure of Al is equal to the chamber pressure. While when the chamber pressure is higher than the saturated vapor pressure, the real vapor pressure of Al approaches to the saturated vapor pressure of Al of the same condition.展开更多

It is based on chemical reaction between active radicals excited by plasma and workpiece surface atoms,so the subsurface damage caused by contact stress can be avoided and atomic-level precision can be ensured. In this paper,based on the spectral quantitative analysis theory,the influence laws on material removal rate by the key factors of APPP including the flow rate of reaction gases,the input power,the processing distance and time are discussed. In addition,the results that APPP can remove the damaged surface layer and do not introduce secondary damage are proved via the nanoindentation technology.展开更多

High pressures-up to millions of bars using diamond anvil cells-can be achieved in the laboratory, and lead to many new routes for chemical synthesis and the synthesis of new materials with desirable thermody- namic, transport, and electronic properties. On the industrial scale, however, high-pressure processing is currently limited by the cost of compression and by materials limitations, so that few industrial processes are carried out at pressures above 25 MPa. An alternative approach to high-pressure processing is pro- posed here, in which very high local pressures are generated using the surface-driven interactions from a solid substrate. Recent experiments and molecular simulations show that such interactions can lead to local pressures as high as tens of thousands of bars (1 bar=1×10^5 Pa), and even millions of bars in some cases. Since the active high-pressure processing zone is inhomogeneous, the pressure is different in dif- ferent directions. In many cases, it is the pressure in the direction parallel to the surface of the substrate (the tangential pressure) that is most greatly enhanced. This pressure is exerted on the molecules to be processed, but not on the solid substrate or the containing vessel. Current knowledge of such pressure enhancement is reviewed, and the possibility of an alternative route to high-pressure processing based on surface-driven forces is discussed. Such surface-driven high-pressure processing would have the advantage of achieving much higher pressures than are possible with traditional bulk-phase processing, since it eliminates the need for mechanical compression. Moreover, no increased pressure is exerted on the containing vessel for the process, thus eliminating concerns about materials failure.展开更多

Because these resources near the earth's surface have been exploited for many years, the extraction depth has increased.As mining shafts in the coal extraction process become deeper, especially in western China, an artificial freezing method is used and is concentrated in the fractured rock mass. The frost-heaving pressure(FHP)is directly related to the degree of damage of the fractured rock mass. This paper is focused on FHP during the freezing process, with emphasis on the frost-heaving phenomenon in engineering materials. A review of the frost phenomenon in the geotechnical engineering literature indicates that:(1) During the soil freezing process, the ice content that is influenced by unfrozen water and the freezing rate are the determining factors of FHP;(2) During the freezing process of rock and other porous media, the resulting cracks should be considered because the FHP may damage the crack structure;(3) The FHP in a joint rock mass is analyzed by the joint deformation in field and experimental tests and can be simulated by the equivalent expansion method including water migration and joint deformation.展开更多

文摘During the low-pressure casting of extra-large size C95800 copper alloy components,traditional linear pressurization technique leads to a rapid surge of liquid metal inlet velocity at the regions where the mold cavity cross-section enlarges.This rapid increasement of liquid metal inlet velocity causes serious entrapment of gas and oxide films,and results in various casting defects such as the bifilm defects.These defects detrimentally deteriorate mechanical properties of the castings.To address this issue,an innovative nonlinear pressurization strategy timely matching to the casting structure was proposed.The pressurization rate decreases at sections where the cross-section widens,but it gradually increases as the liquid metal level rises.By this way,the inlet velocity remains below a critical threshold to prevent the entrapment of gas and oxide films.Comparative analyses involving numerical simulations and casting verification illustrate that the nonlinear pressurization technique,compared to the linear pressurization,effectively diminishes both the size and number of bifilm defects.Furthermore,the nonlinear pressurization method enhances the casting yield strength by 10%,tensile strength by 14%,and elongation by 10%.Examination through scanning electron microscopy highlights that the bifilm defects arising from the linear pressurization process result in the reduction of the castings’mechanical properties.These observations underscore the efficacy of nonlinear pressurization in enhancing the quality and reliability of gigantic castings,as exemplified by a 5.4-ton extra-large sized C95800 copper alloy propeller hub with complex structures in the current study.

文摘To explore the effect of bedding and initial confining pressure on the energy evolution characteristics of shale during the unloading process,samples were drilled with different bedding angles,unloading tests were conducted under different initial confining pressures,and the me-chanical and energy evolution characteristics of shale during the unloading process were analyzed.The results show that the stressestrain curve of the unloading test can be divided into the linear elasticity stage,the stable crack growth stage,the accelerated crack growth stage,and the post-failure stage.Critical confining pressure can show the relative strength of the rock samples.The elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio increase with an increase in axial preset load.The elastic modulus increases with the bedding angle,and the effect of the bedding angle on the Poisson's ratio is insignificant.The energy evolution of the unloading test can be divided into three stages:energy accumulation,energy dissipation,and energy release.The larger the axial preset load,the higher the critical confining pressure,the higher the elastic modulus,and the higher the Poisson's ratio.The total energy,elastic energy,and dissipation energy all increase with the increase in the initial confining pressure,and the correlation is high.Confining pressure enhances the ability of the shale sample to store elastic energy and improves the ability of the shale sample to resist internal crack propagation.The total energy,elastic energy,and dissipated energy of the samples in the failure point decrease first and then increase with the increase in the bedding angle.The maximum value can be obtained when the bedding angle is 0°.The elastic energy and dissipated energy of shale are highly heterogeneous due to bedding,and the effects of bedding should be taken into account when exploring the law of rock deformation and failure from an energy perspective.

文摘Annular channeling has seriously troubled deep oil and gas exploitation,and the reduction of hydrostatic pressure of cement slurry in the waiting stage is considered one of the main causes of early annular channeling.However,at present,there is still a lack of sufficient research on and understanding of the relationship between the time-varying law of hydrostatic pressure of cement slurry and the early hydration process in different well sections,especially in high-temperature well sections.Therefore,in this paper,a hydrostatic pressure measurement experiment of cement slurry at low temperature(50-90℃)and high temperature(120-180℃)was carried out using a self-developed hydrostatic pressure measurement device of cement slurry.Then,the cement slurry cured at 90℃ for 1-8 h was sampled by the freeze-drying method,and XRD and TG experiments were carried out.The results show that the hydrostatic curves of low and high temperatures both show a trend of rapid increase first,then remain stable,and then decrease rapidly.With an increase in temperature,the time of the stable and falling segments of the hydrostatic curve of the cement slurry gradually decreases.By fitting the rapid pressure drop time points of cement slurry at different temperatures,it can be determined that the rapid pressure drop time and temperature show a functional relationship.The XRD and TG results of different curing times at 90℃ were analyzed.It can be seen that in the early stage of the hydration induction period,the connection between cement particles is not close,and the hydrostatic pressure of the cement slurry column remains stable.As the hydration process enters the acceleration period,the cement particles crosslink with each other through hydration products to form a bridge structure,and the hydrostatic pressure of the cement paste begins to decrease.This shows that the pressure drop time can be controlled by regulating the hydration process to provide theoretical guidance for cement slurry preparation and slurry column design in cementing engineering.

文摘In this paper, the time dependent effects of various pressure treatments on the characteristics of lotus-seed starch which was modified by ultra-high pressure (UHP) were investigated. The results showed that the polarization cross of lotus-seed starch granules was weakening gradually with increasing the treatment time, which indicated the termination of their ordered crystallite structures. The morphologies of granules were collapsed once the UHP was kept at 500 MPa for 60 minutes. The particle size analysis demonstrated that the granule size and distribution of lotus-seed starches increased as the treatment time was prolonged. X-ray diffraction studies showed that the intensity of the feature diffraction peaks of starch decreased and eventually disappeared with increasing the treatment time, and B-type transformation pattern was observed. The Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) analysis of starch showed that the UHP is a physical modification processing because no new groups formed. The research showed that UHP processing at certain degree is capable to achieve the modification of lotus-seed starch. It is of significance for the deep processing of lotus-seed products.
文摘Some milk-associated proteins are known to be nutritionally valuable and form bioactive peptides that exhibit activity against hypertension and oxidative stress. Consumption of cheeses, such as the popular Hispanic-style cheese Queso Fresco (QF), may be a vehicle for delivery of these milk-associated peptides. This paper describes the effects of high-pressure processing (HPP) on the antioxidative activity (ORAC- FL value) of water-soluble proteins extracted from QF samples. QFs were manufactured according to a commercial-make procedure using pasteurized, homogenized milk, without added starter cultures. The cheese was cut into 45 × 45 × 150 mm3 blocks, double packaged in vacuum bags, and received the following HPP treatments: 200, 400, or 600 MPa for either 0, 5, 10, or 20 min, with warming to an internal temperature of either 22℃ or 40℃ prior to HPP treatment. Results show that the core temperature of the cheese during HPP directly affects the ORAC-FL value. The activities of the lower temperature cheeses are independent of time and pressure, and have a median ORAC-FL value of 27 trolox equivalents (TE). The higher temperature cheeses have higher ORAC-FL values ranging from 21.5 to 96.0 TE;the highest activity corresponded to the cheese held at 400 MPa for the longest time under pressure (20 min). The 600 MPa cheeses increase in activity with increasing time under pressure, but are less active than the control cheese. These results indicate that processing temperature and pressure are important factors in the antioxidative activity of these QF samples and further understanding of the roles of these variables may lead to the manufacture of healthier and more nutritious cheeses and dairy products.

文摘With permanent down-hole gauges (PDGs) widely installed in oilfields around the world in recent years, a continuous stream of transient pressure data in real time is now available, which motivates a new round of research interests in further developing pressure transient processing and analysis techniques. Transient pressure measurements from PDG are characterized by long term and high volume data. These data are recorded under unconstrained circumstances, so effects due to noise, rate fluctuation and interference from other wells cannot be avoided. These effects make the measured pressure trends decline or rise and then obscure or distort the actual flow behavior, which makes subsequent analysis difficult. In this paper, the problems encountered in analysis of PDG transient pressure are investigated. A newly developed workflow for processing and analyzing PDG transient pressure data is proposed. Numerical well testing synthetic studies are performed to demonstrate these procedures. The results prove that this new technique works well and the potential for practical application looks very promising.

文摘One of the major advantages of utilizing atmospheric pressure plasma processing (APPP) technology to fabricate ultra-precision optics is that there is no subsurface damage during the process. In APPP, the removal footprint and removal rate are critical to the capability and efficiency of the figuring of the optical surface. In this paper, an atmospheric plasma torch, which can work in both remote mode and contact mode, is presented. The footprints and the removal rates of both modes are compared by profilometer measurements. The influences of process recipes and substrate thickness for both modes are investigated through a series of experiments. When the substrate is thinner than 12 mm, the removal rate in contact mode is higher. However, the removal rate and width of the footprint decrease dramatically as the substrate thickness increases in contact mode.
文摘With the development of technology, several new processing techniques are being introduced for the food industry. By applying those novel techniques to food systems, it has been found that the structural and functional properties of food could be altered. Microfluidization which is also known as high pressure homogenization is one of the novel technologies that could be applied in food industry to obtain many beneficial outcomes. High pressure processing is another novel technique that is mainly playing the microbicidal effect. This work is concerned on the possibility of using microfluidization and high pressure processing in food industry based on the experimental findings. These techniques could be used as useful tools in the field of food science and technology.
文摘The objectives of this study are to research the relationship between pectin and the softening of peach by soaking in citric acid solutions for 24 h at 35 ℃, pressurizing for 30 rain at 500 MPa or heating for 10 min. Also, comparing high-pressure-induced jam (HP-jam) and heat-induced jam (H-jam) were evaluated. It was found that firmness of the peach decreased greatly when soaked at pH 2.0 〉 heated 〉 soaked at pH 2.2 or 2.5 〉 pressurized, respectively. About 88% of the peach pectin was water-soluble-pectin and high-methoxyl pectin, while low-methoxyl pectin was slight. During pressurization, the pectin did not change. However, pectin degraded through hydrolysis during heating; consequently, the middle lamella separated. Also, eight kinds of peach jam (65% sugar, pH 2.0 or pH 2.2, and 50% or 60% sugar, pH 2.5) were compared. Both color and flavor of HP-jam were better than H-jam. As the pH values were lower, L-, a-, b-values of jam became higher, and the jam became pinker. Raw peach contained about 0.3%-0.4% pectin, therefore, an addition of 0.6% pectin was needed for both HP- and H-jams. However, there was no great difference in rheology or sensory evaluation between HP- and H-jams.
文摘In this paper, the critical pressure pcrit and impeding pressure pimpe of the elemental evaporation were defined and studied based on the calculation of the relationship between the evaporation loss rate Nm and the chamber pressure p during melting of NiAl alloys. When the chamber pressure is lower than pcrit or higher than Pimpe Nm tends to be the maximum or minimum value and remains almost unchanged. However, declines sharply with the increase of the chamber pressure when pcrit<P<Pimpe. A method has been put forward to calculate the pcrit and pimpe of Al evaporation in a Ni-XAI (x=25-50 at. pct) melt. The calculation result shows that the pcrit or pimpe is a second-order function of the molar percentage of Al and the melting temperature.
文摘A new model was established to calculate the real vapor pressure of Al in the molten Ni-xAl (at.pct) (x=25;0) alloy. The effects of the holding time, chamber pressure, mole fraction of Al and melting temperature on the real vapor pressure of Al in the vacuum chamber were analyzed. Because of the impeding effect of the real vapor pressure on the evaporation loss rate, within a short time (less than 10 s), the real vapor pressure tends to a constant value. When the chamber pressure is less than the saturated vapor pressure of Al, the real vapor pressure of Al is equal to the chamber pressure. While when the chamber pressure is higher than the saturated vapor pressure, the real vapor pressure of Al approaches to the saturated vapor pressure of Al of the same condition.

文摘In order to get ultra-smooth fused silica surface without subsurface damage efficiently, the atmospheric pressure plasma processing( APPP) method has been developed. It is based on chemical reaction between active radicals excited by plasma and workpiece surface atoms,so the subsurface damage caused by contact stress can be avoided and atomic-level precision can be ensured. In this paper,based on the spectral quantitative analysis theory,the influence laws on material removal rate by the key factors of APPP including the flow rate of reaction gases,the input power,the processing distance and time are discussed. In addition,the results that APPP can remove the damaged surface layer and do not introduce secondary damage are proved via the nanoindentation technology.

文摘The application of high pressure favors many chemical processes, providing higher yields or improved rates in chemical reactions and improved solvent power in separation processes, and allowing activation barriers to be overcome through the increase in molecular energy and molecular collision rates. High pressures-up to millions of bars using diamond anvil cells-can be achieved in the laboratory, and lead to many new routes for chemical synthesis and the synthesis of new materials with desirable thermody- namic, transport, and electronic properties. On the industrial scale, however, high-pressure processing is currently limited by the cost of compression and by materials limitations, so that few industrial processes are carried out at pressures above 25 MPa. An alternative approach to high-pressure processing is pro- posed here, in which very high local pressures are generated using the surface-driven interactions from a solid substrate. Recent experiments and molecular simulations show that such interactions can lead to local pressures as high as tens of thousands of bars (1 bar=1×10^5 Pa), and even millions of bars in some cases. Since the active high-pressure processing zone is inhomogeneous, the pressure is different in dif- ferent directions. In many cases, it is the pressure in the direction parallel to the surface of the substrate (the tangential pressure) that is most greatly enhanced. This pressure is exerted on the molecules to be processed, but not on the solid substrate or the containing vessel. Current knowledge of such pressure enhancement is reviewed, and the possibility of an alternative route to high-pressure processing based on surface-driven forces is discussed. Such surface-driven high-pressure processing would have the advantage of achieving much higher pressures than are possible with traditional bulk-phase processing, since it eliminates the need for mechanical compression. Moreover, no increased pressure is exerted on the containing vessel for the process, thus eliminating concerns about materials failure.

文摘Energy and resources including coal, oil, and gas are in demand all over the world. Because these resources near the earth's surface have been exploited for many years, the extraction depth has increased.As mining shafts in the coal extraction process become deeper, especially in western China, an artificial freezing method is used and is concentrated in the fractured rock mass. The frost-heaving pressure(FHP)is directly related to the degree of damage of the fractured rock mass. This paper is focused on FHP during the freezing process, with emphasis on the frost-heaving phenomenon in engineering materials. A review of the frost phenomenon in the geotechnical engineering literature indicates that:(1) During the soil freezing process, the ice content that is influenced by unfrozen water and the freezing rate are the determining factors of FHP;(2) During the freezing process of rock and other porous media, the resulting cracks should be considered because the FHP may damage the crack structure;(3) The FHP in a joint rock mass is analyzed by the joint deformation in field and experimental tests and can be simulated by the equivalent expansion method including water migration and joint deformation.

文摘As an important A_(2)B_(2)O_(7)-type ceramic,(La_(0.2)Nd_(0.2)Sm_(0.2)Gd_(0.2)Eu_(0.2))_(2)Zr_(2)O_(7)high-entropy pyrochlore pos-sesses promising properties such as high melting point,high chemical durability,and low thermal conductivity.However,the low sintering ability limits its application in thermal barrier coating and radioactive waste immobilization.It usually needs long-term high-temperature soaking to achieve full density,but with inevitable grain growth.In this work,dense and grain-refined nanocrystalline(La_(0.2)Nd_(0.2)Sm_(0.2)Gd_(0.2)Eu_(0.2))_(2)Zr_(2)O_(7)ceramics were prepared with ultra-high pressure sintering(UHPS)method under 10 GPa at a low temperature of 800℃.The densification behavior,microstructure evo-lution,and properties of the UHPS-ed samples were then investigated.The grain size of as-prepared(La_(0.2)Nd_(0.2)Sm_(0.2)Gd_(0.2)Eu_(0.2))_(2)Zr_(2)O_(7)ceramic was only 151 nm,which is 40%smaller than that of raw pow-der.In addition,it exhibited advantageous properties including both high hardness and aqueous durabil-ity.Plastic deformation under ultra-high pressure was believed as the dominant densification mechanism responsible for grain refinement and property improvement.
