In this paper, a mathematical model that accounts for the gas-liquid exothermic reaction and axial dispersions of both gas and liquid phase is employed to study the performance of EBCR for the process of p-xylene(PX) oxidation. The computational results show that there are remarkable concentration and temperature gradients in EBCR for high ratio of height to diameter (H/DT). The temperature is lower at the bottom of column and higher at the top, due to rapid evaporation induced by the feed gas near the bottom. The concentration profiles in the gas phase are more nonuniform than those (except PX) in the liquid phase, which causes more solvent burning consumption at high H/DT ratio. For p-xylene oxidation, theo ptimal H/DT is around 5.展开更多

A recently developed model, which can simultaneously account for the finite thermal conductivity, finite mass diffusivity and turbulence effects within atomizing multi-component liquid fuel sprays, is utilized for the numerical predictions. Two different multi-component fuels with different boiling temperatures,densities and other thermal properties are implemented in the KIVA-3V computational fluid dynamics(CFD)code to study the evaporation behaviors. A six-component surrogate fuel is used to emulate the relevant volatility property of the real diesel fuel, and a second bi-component fuel is chosen to represent a low boiling-temperature fuel. The numerical results are compared with the experimental data, and the representative results are obtained.For a lower density and lower boiling temperature fuel, the liquid penetration length is shorter. However, the vapor penetration lengths are not affected by the fuel type in terms of fuel volatility. Available experimental data are used for validation and appraisal of the multi-component evaporation model.展开更多

However, under kinetic evaporation condition, the fi'actionation of stable isotopes is not only related to the phase temperature but also influenced by the atmospheric humidity and the mass exchange between liquid and vapor phases. The ratio 6 in residual water will not change with f after undergoing evaporation of a long time for great relative humidity. The rate that the evaporating water body reaches isotopic steady state is mainly dependent on the relative humidity in atmosphere. The analysis shows that the actual mean linear variety rates, about -30.0, of the δ^18O in residual water versus the residual water proportion at Nagqu and Amdo stations are consistent with the simulated process under temperature of 20℃ and relative humidity of 50%. The distillation line simulated under Rayleigh equilibrium condition is analogous to the global meteoric water line (MWL) as the temperature is about 20℃. Under non-equilibrium condition, the slope and constant values of distillation line are directly proportional to temperature and relative humidity. According to the basic data, the simulated distillation line is very consistent with the actual distillation line of Qinghai Lake.展开更多

Evaporation plays a crucial role in determining the variation of stable isotopes. In this paper, several evaporation experiments were conducted in order to study the stable isotopic fractionation mechanism of water and analyze the influence of different temperatures on evaporation fractionation. Three group experiments of water evaporation under different temperatures and initial isotopic values were carried out. The results show that fractionation factors of hydrogen and oxygen may increase with temperature, and the average enrichment degree of hydrogen isotope D is 3.432 times that of oxygen isotope 18O. The results also show that the isotopic composition of the initial water has little influence on water evaporation fractionation, which is mainly affected by the state variables in the evaporation process, such as temperature. This research provides experimental data for further understanding the evaporation fractionation mechanism.展开更多

However, these theories are inadequate to account for the convective instabilities in an evaporating liquid layer, especially in the case when it is cooled from below. In the present paper, we study the onset of Marangoni convection in a liquid layer being overlain by a vapor layer. A new two-sided model is put forward instead of the one-sided model in previous studies. Marangoni-Béard instabilities in evaporating liquid thin layers are investigated with a linear instability analysis. We define a new evaporation Blot number, which is different from that in previous studies and discuss the influences of reference evaporating velocity and evaporation Blot number on the vapor-liquid system. At the end, we explain why the instability occurs even when an evaporating liquid layer is cooled from below.展开更多

The similarity criteria controlling the mist flows were determined. For the flow along a curvilinear surface, the forms of the boundary layer equations differ from the regimes of presence and absence of the droplet inertia deposition. The numerical results were presented for the vapor-droplet boundary layer in the neighborhood of a stagnation point of a hot blunt body. It is demonstrated that, due to evaporation, a droplet-free region develops near the wall inside the boundary layer. On the upper edge of this region, the droplet radius tends to zero and the droplet number density becomes much higher than that in the free stream. The combined effect of the droplet evaporation and accumulation results in a significant enhancement of the heat transfer on the surface even for small mass concentration of the droplets in the free stream.展开更多

Differences ...Velocity field of evaporating liquid film in a wiped molecular distillator was simulated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, and two turbulent models treating near-wall flow were compared. Differences between wiped and other molecular distillations were intro-duced to explain why turbulent model should be used in this simulation. Three assumptions were made in order to simplify simulating processes. In rotating coordinate system, fixed other settings, the above two turbulent models were used, and the volume of fluid (VOF) multiphase model was also applied to tracking the liquid-gas surface. Both of the simulating results are basically iden-tical with real situation and were compared in several aspects. It was concluded that both of the turbulent models are suitable in this simulation.展开更多

文摘Spray experiments of RP-3 jet fuel at non-evaporating and evaporating environments were studied on a constant volume spray chamber,and diffusive back-imaging technique was used to capture the transient spray development processes.Spray tip penetration,projected spray area and cone angle of RP-3 jet fuel were derived from the spray development images,and compared to those of diesel fuel.It is observed that non-evaporating sprays of RP-3 jet fuel and diesel fuel do not exhibit significant differences,as their spray penetration distances,projected spray areas and spray cone angles are consistent at most test conditions.The evaporating sprays of RP-3 jet fuel produce shorter liquid-phase penetration distances and lower projected spray areas than those of diesel fuel,and these differences are particularly pronounced at low ambient temperatures.However,fuel effects on the evaporating spray cone angle are insignificant.Further,increased ambient density or ambient temperature shortens the liquid-phase spray penetration distance and reduces the liquid-phase spray area,and these effects are more pronounced for diesel fuel than RP-3 jet fuel.

文摘S and Co co-doped carbon catalysts were prepared via pyrolysis of MOF-71 and thiourea mixtures at 800℃at a mass ratio of MOF-71 to thiourea of 1:0.1 to effectively activate peroxymonosulfate(PMS)for methylene blue(MB)degradation.The effects of two different mixing routes were identified on the MB degradation performance.Particularly,the catalyst obtained by the alcohol solvent evaporation(MOF-AEP)mixing route could degrade 95.60%MB(50 mg/L)within 4 min(degradation rate:K=0.78 min^(-1)),which was faster than that derived from the direct grinding method(MOF-DGP,80.97%,K=0.39 min^(-1)).X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that the Co-S content of MOF-AEP(43.39at%)was less than that of MOF-DGP(54.73at%),and the proportion of C-S-C in MOF-AEP(13.56at%)was higher than that of MOF-DGP(10.67at%).Density functional theory calculations revealed that the adsorption energy of Co for PMS was -2.94 eV when sulfur was doped as C-S-C on the carbon skeleton,which was higher than that when sulfur was doped next to cobalt in the form of Co-S bond(-2.86 eV).Thus,the C-S-C sites might provide more contributions to activate PMS compared with Co-S.Furthermore,the degradation parameters,including pH and MOF-AEP dosage,were investigated.Finally,radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)measurements revealed that ^(1)O_(2)might be the primary catalytic species,whereas·O~(2-)might be the secondary one in degrading MB.

文摘Velocity field of evaporating liquid film in a wiped molecular distillator was simulated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, and two turbulent models treating near-wall flow were compared. Differences between wiped and other molecular distillations were intro-duced to explain why turbulent model should be used in this simulation. Three assumptions were made in order to simplify simulating processes. In rotating coordinate system, fixed other settings, the above two turbulent models were used, and the volume of fluid (VOF) multiphase model was also applied to tracking the liquid-gas surface. Both of the simulating results are basically iden-tical with real situation and were compared in several aspects. It was concluded that both of the turbulent models are suitable in this simulation.

文摘The evaporating momentum force and the shear force acting on the meniscus of an evaporating and elongating bubble in flow boiling in microchannel have been investigated theoretically and numerically.The concept of the effective evaporation region and the theory of the liquid layer supplement between elongated bubble and microchannel are proposed,and the analytical expressions of the evaporating momentum force and shear force have been obtained.The relative importance of both forces has been determined by the method of magnitude analysis and numerical simulation.It has been found that the evaporating momentum force can always be neglected in analyzing the bubble elongation process and the motion law of meniscus of elongated bubble in microchannel flow boiling,but whether the shear force should be considered or not is determined by its relative order of magnitude and the particular conditions such as channel dimension and the operating conditions.

文摘The evaporating section of the pulsating heat pipe(PHP)is in direct contact with the electronics when it is used for heat dissipation,and thus the evaporating temperature uniformity has an important effect on the safe and reliable operation of electronic equipment.On the basis of these conditions,an experimental study on the evaporating temperature uniformity of the PHP with surfactant solutions at different concentrations was conducted at the heat fluxes of(1911–19427)W/m^(2).Sodium stearate was utilized for the solute;the surfactant solutions were prepared with the concentrations of 0.001 wt%,0.002 wt%,and 0.004 wt%,respectively,and the filling ratios of the PHP were 0.31,0.44 and 0.57,respectively.The experimental results revealed that under all tested working conditions,the highest temperature always appeared in the intermediate zone of the evaporating section.As the heat flux increased,the temperature differences among different zones rose initially and then reduced due to the change of the flow motion and the flow pattern.The evaporating temperature uniformity of the sodium stearate solutions-PHP was better than that of the deionized water-PHP,which suggested that the evaporating temperature uniformity might be improved through decreasing the surface tension.Furthermore,combined with the effect of surface tension and viscosity,for different filling ratios,the required concentration was different when the best evaporating temperature uniformity was achieved.To be specific,when the filling ratio were 0.31 and 0.44,the best evaporating temperature uniformity was achieved at the concentration of 0.004 wt%,while at the filling ratio of 0.57,the best evaporating temperature uniformity was attained at the concentration of 0.002 wt%.
文摘Using the new soft X-ray data from the Macao Science Satellite-1,we studied a solar flare that occurred on 22 June 2023.We found that the centroids of the Ca(around 3.9 keV)and Fe(around 6.7 keV)line features exhibit a rapid shift toward higher energy channels during the flare's rising phase,followed by a gradual decrease during the decay phase.Through precise energy calibration,the centroids are determined with high accuracy.Temperature and velocity are then self-consistently derived by comparing the centroids with those calculated from the synthesized line features using the latest CHIANTI atomic database(ver.10.1).The calculated maximum velocity reaches up to 710±60 km s-1,which significantly exceeds the previously reported values.Our results suggest that the entire shift of soft X-ray lines may occur during the process of chromospheric evaporation.
