The effects of Na2 Cr O4 on the neutralization curve, Al（OH）3 precipitation efficiency and induction period of bayerite were investigated. The results indicate that the neutralization curve of the artificial chromate alkali solutions shows three distinct regions and its induction period is longer than that of pure sodium aluminate solutions at the same aluminum concentration. And the decreased temperature and volume fraction of CO2 enhance the particle size of bayerite β-Al（OH）3. Bayerite composed of agglomerates of rods and cone frustums was obtained from alkali metal chromate solutions with 28.5% CO2（volume fraction） at temperatures ranging from 50 °C to 70 °C. Coarse bayerite with particle size（d50） from 24.2 μm to 29.3 μm extremely has few impurities, which is suitable for comprehensive utilization.展开更多

Well aligned crystals of the three molecules were grown from para-xylene by droplet-pinned crystallization method. FETs based on these aligned crystals exhibit a hole mobility up to0.19 cm^2 V 1s 1and electron mobility up to 0.008 cm^2 V 1s 1. The achieved hole mobility is of the same order of magnitude as reported highest hole mobility for DPP-based small molecules, but it is much lower than that of the high-performance DPP-based polymers. The relative low mobility is mainly attributed to the rough crystal surfaces with steps and, thus, non-smooth charge transport channels at the interfaces between the crystals and the dielectrics. This work has implications for understanding the low charge mobility of DPP-based small molecules.展开更多

Local in space energy inequalities are employed to recover the estimates on the second order spatial derivatives of the director fields locally in time, which cannot be derived from the basic energy balance. It is shown that these weak solutions satisfy the temperature equation, and also the total energy equation but away from at most finite many ＂singular＂ times, at which the energy concentration occurs and the director field losses its second order derivatives.展开更多

The microstructures were observed with optical microscope （OM） and field emission microscope （FEM） after homogenization-solution heat treated at 1328℃ and 1350 ℃ for 2 h, 6 h and 9 h. Results indicate that when heat treated at 1328 ℃, pores appear at the interface of eutectic and matrix at first and then leave in the matrix with the shrink of eutectic. When heat treated at 1350 ℃, incipient melting happens at first, and some of them have a pore in the center. After that, with the homogenization-solution process, incipient melting microstructure fades away gradually. By analyzing the results with thermodynamics and kinetics methods, it is concluded that some pores nucleate during directional solidification and then become larger and visible during homogenization-solution heat treatments; some pores are generated by incipient melting, yet such pores are difficult to be distinguished from other pores; imbalanced elements cross-diffusion induces to the forming and growing of pores too, and such imbalanced diffusion also plays an important part on the growth of all preexisting pores.展开更多

Especially when the adiabatic exponent γ=3, we apply for the maximum principle to obtain the L^∞ estimates w(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ B(t) and z(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ B(t) for the viscosity solutions (ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε), where B(t) is a nonnegative bounded function for any finite time t. This work, in the special case γ≥ 3, extends the previous works, which provided the global entropy solutions for the same Cauchy problem with the restriction w(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ 0 or z(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ 0.展开更多

The simulation results indicate that the rate of apparent crystal growth during seeded precipitation exhibits a manifest dependence on the crystal size. In general, there is an obvious increase in the apparent crystal growth rate with the augment in crystal size. The apparent activation energy increases with the increase of characteristic crystal size, which indicates that the growth of small crystals is controlled by surface chemical reaction; it is gradually controlled by both the surface reaction and diffusion with the augment in crystal size.展开更多

The effect of this instability often leads to excessive vibration due to the back pressure imposed to the system by this phenomenon. In this work, fouling was observed as the major cause of the compressor instability. A step to analyze how this phenomenon can be controlled with the continuous examination of the vibration amplitude using a computer approach led to the execution of this work. The forces resulting to vibration in the system is usually external to it. This external force is aerodynamic and the effect was modeled using force damped vibration analysis. A gas turbine plant on industrial duty for electricity generation was used to actualize this research. The data for amplitude of vibration varied between -15 and 15 mm/s while the given mass flow rate and pressure ratio were determined as falling between 6.1 to 6.8 kg/s and 9.3 to 9.6 respectively. A computer program named VICOMS written in C++ programming language was developed. The results show that the machine should not be run beyond 14.0 mm vibration amplitude in order to avoid surge, stall and other flow-induced catastrophic breakdown.展开更多

The microstructures were observed with optical microscope （OM） and field emission microscope （FEM） after homogenization-solution heat treated at 1328℃ and 1350 ℃ for 2 h, 6 h and 9 h. Results indicate that when heat treated at 1328 ℃, pores appear at the interface of eutectic and matrix at first and then leave in the matrix with the shrink of eutectic. When heat treated at 1350 ℃, incipient melting happens at first, and some of them have a pore in the center. After that, with the homogenization-solution process, incipient melting microstructure fades away gradually. By analyzing the results with thermodynamics and kinetics methods, it is concluded that some pores nucleate during directional solidification and then become larger and visible during homogenization-solution heat treatments; some pores are generated by incipient melting, yet such pores are difficult to be distinguished from other pores; imbalanced elements cross-diffusion induces to the forming and growing of pores too, and such imbalanced diffusion also plays an important part on the growth of all preexisting pores.

文摘Sonoluminescence is more distinctly observed in phosphoric and sulfuric acid,which exhibit high viscosity and lower vapor pressures relative to water.Within an 85-wt%phosphoric acid solution saturated with argon(Ar),variations in the light-emitting regimes of bubbles were noted to correspond with increments in the driving acoustic intensity.Specifically,the bubbles were observed to perform a dance-like motion 2 cm below the multi-bubble sonoluminescence(MBSL)cluster,traversing a 25-mm^(2) grid during the camera exposure period.Spectral analysis conducted at the beginning of the experiment showed a gradual attenuation of CN(B^(2)Σ–X^(2)Σ)emission concurrent with a strengthening of Ar(4p–4s)atom emission lines.The application of a theoretical temperature model to the spectral data revealed that the internal temperature of the bubbles escalates swiftly upon their implosion.This study is instrumental in advancing the comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of sonoluminescence and in the formulation of a dynamic model for the behavior of the bubbles.

文摘Various cooling scenarios(water,oil,air and furnace)were employed to study the impacts of the solution cooling rate(SCR)on the microstructure and creep behavior of a novel single-crystal(SX)superalloy.The results showed that the cubic degree and size of theγphases were inversely proportional to the SCR.The creep life first increased and then dropped dramatically with a reduction in the SCR.The creep life of the sample cooled with air cooling(AC)was the highest,up to 144.90 h at 800℃/750 MPa and160.15 h at 1100℃/137 MPa.During creep at 800℃/750 MPa,the improved creep life of the AC sample was mainly attributed to the fine cubicγphases,which decreased the rate ofγ-phase coarsening and favoured plastic deformation by promoting the active movement of dislocations.The AC helped theγphases become rich in Al,Ti and Ta while depleted in Co and Cr,which enhanced its stacking fault energy,thus promoting the formation of dislocation locks.Meanwhile,the largest negative lattice misfit caused by AC induced denserγ/γinterface dislocation networks at 1100℃/137 MPa,which efficiently reduced the minimum creep rate.The calculated average dislocation spacing results indicated that the smallest density of excess dislocations corresponded to the AC sample,proving its greatest creep resistance.Interestingly,the size of the secondaryγphases first decreased and then increased sharply with decreasing SCR during creep at 1100℃/137 MPa,when fine secondaryγphases had a positive role in the blockage of dislocation movement in the matrix.Eventually,the comprehensive SCR effect was explored to provide more guidance in the design of Re-free SX superalloys.
文摘Enhanced oil recovery(EOR)methods are mostly based on different phenomena taking place at the interfaces between fluid–fluid and rock–fluid phases.Over the last decade,carbonated water injection(CWI)has been considered as one of the multi-objective EOR techniques to store CO2 in the hydrocarbon bearing formations as well as improving oil recovery efficiency.During CWI process,as the reservoir pressure declines,the dissolved CO2 in the oil phase evolves and gas nucleation phenomenon would occur.As a result,it can lead to oil saturation restoration and subsequently,oil displacement due to the hysteresis effect.At this condition,CO2 would act as insitu dissolved gas into the oil phase,and play the role of an artificial solution gas drive(SGD).In this study,the effect of SGD as an extra oil recovery mechanism after secondary and tertiary CWI(SCWI-TCWI)modes has been experimentally investigated in carbonate rocks using coreflood tests.The depressurization tests resulted in more than 25%and 18%of original oil in place(OOIP)because of the SGD after SCWI and TCWI tests,respectively.From the ultimate enhanced oil recovery point of view,the efficiency of SGD was observed to be more than one-third of that of CWI itself.Furthermore,the pressure drop data revealed that the system pressure depends more on the oil production pattern than water production.

文摘In this article, we study the global L^∞ entropy solutions for the Cauchy problem of system of isentropic gas dynamics in a divergent nozzle with a friction. Especially when the adiabatic exponent γ=3, we apply for the maximum principle to obtain the L^∞ estimates w(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ B(t) and z(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ B(t) for the viscosity solutions (ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε), where B(t) is a nonnegative bounded function for any finite time t. This work, in the special case γ≥ 3, extends the previous works, which provided the global entropy solutions for the same Cauchy problem with the restriction w(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ 0 or z(ρ^δ,ε, u^δ,ε)≤ 0.
文摘Based on the population balance equation in a batch crystallizer characteristic of seeded precipitation, a model to calculate the rate of apparent crystal growth of aluminum hydroxide from the size distribution was deve- loped. The simulation results indicate that the rate of apparent crystal growth during seeded precipitation exhibits a manifest dependence on the crystal size. In general, there is an obvious increase in the apparent crystal growth rate with the augment in crystal size. The apparent activation energy increases with the increase of characteristic crystal size, which indicates that the growth of small crystals is controlled by surface chemical reaction; it is gradually controlled by both the surface reaction and diffusion with the augment in crystal size.
文摘This article is concerned with the numerical investigation of one-dimensional population balance models for batch crystallization process with fines dissolution.In batch crystallization,dissolution of smaller unwanted nuclei below some critical size is of vital importance as it improves the quality of product.The crystal growth rates for both size-independent and size-dependent cases are considered.A delay in recycle pipe is also included in the model.The space–time conservation element and solution element method,originally derived for non-reacting flows,is used to solve the model.This scheme has already been applied to a range of PDEs,mainly in the area of fluid mechanics.The numerical results are compared with those obtained from the Koren scheme,showing that the proposed scheme is more efficient.

文摘We study the existence of global-in-time classical solutions for the one-dimensional nonisentropic compressible Euler system for a dusty gas with large initial data.Using the characteristic decomposition method proposed by Li et al.(Commun Math Phys 267:1–12,2006),we derive a group of characteristic decompositions for the system.Using these characteristic decompositions,we find a sufficient condition on the initial data to ensure the existence of global-in-time classical solutions.
文摘Surge and stall are the two main types of instabilities that often occur on the compressor system of gas turbines. The effect of this instability often leads to excessive vibration due to the back pressure imposed to the system by this phenomenon. In this work, fouling was observed as the major cause of the compressor instability. A step to analyze how this phenomenon can be controlled with the continuous examination of the vibration amplitude using a computer approach led to the execution of this work. The forces resulting to vibration in the system is usually external to it. This external force is aerodynamic and the effect was modeled using force damped vibration analysis. A gas turbine plant on industrial duty for electricity generation was used to actualize this research. The data for amplitude of vibration varied between -15 and 15 mm/s while the given mass flow rate and pressure ratio were determined as falling between 6.1 to 6.8 kg/s and 9.3 to 9.6 respectively. A computer program named VICOMS written in C++ programming language was developed. The results show that the machine should not be run beyond 14.0 mm vibration amplitude in order to avoid surge, stall and other flow-induced catastrophic breakdown.
