In this study, the effect of temperature and mass fraction of Al2O3 and WO3 nanoparticles dispersed in deionized water and liquid paraffin was investigated on dynamic viscosity of nanofluid. The results of the TEM tests showed that the size of Al2O3 and WO3 nanoparticles was ranged from 10 to 60 nm, and the results showed that nanoparticles were semi-spherical. Also the results of DLS and zeta potential tests, respectively, exhibited the uniform size and high stability of the nanoparticles in the basefluid environment. The findings showed that adding a certain amount of nanoparticles to water and liquid paraffin increases dynamic viscosity, and in the case of various shear rates, the viscosity is constant for the water-based nanofluids, which indicates the Newtonian behavior of the nanofluid. In addition, for those prepared by liquid paraffin as a basefluid, the viscosity does not remain constant at different shear rates and at low amount of shear rate the viscosity achieves higher value, indicating non-Newtonian behavior of liquid paraffin-based nanofluids. The results showed that by increasing the temperature in liquid paraffin-based nanofluid the uniformity and linearity of the viscosity curve at various shear rates could be observed, which represents an approach for Newtonian behavior of nanofluid at higher temperatures. These results also showed that with increasing the mass fraction of nanoparticles in water and liquid paraffin, the viscosity increases at different shear rates. Finally, the correlation presented in this study shows that for nanofluid viscosity as a function of nanoparticles load and temperature, the deviation of correlated data from experimental values is less than 10%.
Calcium carbonate nanoparticles have shown promising potentials in the delivery of drugs and metabolites. There is however, a paucity of information on the safety of their intentional or accidental over exposures to biological systems and general health safety. To this end, this study aims at documenting information on the safety of subcutaneous doses of biogenic nanocrystals of aragonite polymorph of calcium carbonate derived from cockle shells (ANC) in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. ANC was synthesized using the top-down method, characterized using the transmission electron microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscope and its acute and repeated dose 28-day trial toxicities were evaluated in SD rats. The results showed that the homogenous 30 ± 5 nm-sized spherical pure aragonite nanocrystals were not associated with mortality in the rats. Severe clinical signs and gross and histopathological lesions, indicating organ toxicities, were recorded in the acute toxicity (29,500 mg/m2) group and the high dose (5900 mg/m2) group of the repeated dose 28-day trial. However, the medium- (590 mg/m2 body weight) and low (59 mg/m2)-dose groups showed moderate to mild lesions. The relatively mild lesions observed in the low toxicity dosage group marked the safety margin of ANC in SD rats. It was concluded from this study that the toxicity of CaCO3 was dependent on the particulate size (30 ± 5 nm) and concentration and the route of administration used. 相似文献
This paper investigates the effect of non-uniform temperature gradient and magnetic field on Marangoni convection in a horizontal fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above with a constant heat flux. A linear stability analysis is performed. The influence of various parameters on the convection onset is analyzed. Six non-uniform basic temperature profiles are considered, and some general conclusions about their desta- bilizing effects are presented. 相似文献
In this work the phase equilibrium of an aqueous two phase system (ATPS) containing polypropylene glycol (PPG, molecular weight = 425 kg·mol?1) and NaClO4 was investigated at atmospheric pressure and at 288.15 and 298.15 K. Two phase regions and composition of phases were determined. Our results show that as the temperature increases, the two-phase region expands. Also, the extended UNIQUAC (E-UNIQUAC) equation was used to correlate the equilibrium data. To reduce the number of adjustable parameters, ATPSs composed of PEG and PPG were collected from the literature and simultaneously correlated using the E-UNIQUAC model. Also, the effect of temperature on the liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) was considered by using temperature-dependent parameters. In the modeling, two different scenarios were supposed. In the first, polymer and salt were treated as solutes (Case A), while in the second, the pseudo-solvent approach was considered (Case B). The results showed good agreement with experimental data in both cases. The average absolute deviation of the model using Case B was about 0.2% and that for Case A was about 2% in the ATPS composed of PEG. Meanwhile, the reported errors in the ATPS containing PPG for Case A and Case B were almost equal. 相似文献

A dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop (DLLME-SFOD) was developed for preconcentration and determination of indium in real samples. In this method, an appropriate mixture of acetone (as disperser solvent) and 1-undecanol (as extracting solvent) containing dithizone (as chelating agent) was rapidly injected into the aqueous samples of indium. In this step, the cloudy solution was formed and the complexes of In-dithizone was extracted into 1-undecanol. After the phase separation, the absorbance of the extracted indium was measured at 510 nm. Under the optimum condition, the calibration graph was linear in the range of 30–230 μg L?1 with detection limit of 9 μg L?1. The relative standard deviation (RSD, n = 6) was 1.04 %. The developed method was successfully applied to extract and determine indium in real samples. 相似文献
Summary In this paper the problem of smoothing a given data set by cubicC2-splines is discussed. The spline may required to be convex in some parts of the domain and concave in other parts. Application of splines has the advantage that the smoothing problem is easily discretized. Moreover, the special structure of the arising finite dimensional convex program allows a dualization such that the resulting concave dual program is unconstrained. Therefore the latter program is treated numerically much more easier than the original program. Further, the validity of a return-formula is of importance by which a minimizer of the orginal program is obtained from a maximizer of the dual program.The theoretical background of this general approach is discussed and, above all, the details for applying the strategy to the present smoothing problem are elaborated. Also some numerical tests are presented. 相似文献
Two new triterpenoids, lup-20(29)-en-3 alpha, 28-diol (1) and lup-20(29)-en-3 alpha, 28,30-triol (2), have been isolated from aerial parts of Bupleurum flavum, a native plant of the Eastern Mediterranean area (Bulgaria, Greece, and Turkey). Their structures were elucidated by spectral analysis. The known compounds betulin, betulinic acid, jasminol, together with the lignan nemerosin and eight flavonoids (kaempferol, isokaempferide, gossipetin, quercetin, luteolin, isorhamnetin 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside, isorhamnetin 3-rutinoside, and rutin) were also characterized. 相似文献
Twenty-five tetraalkylammonium halide salts were investigated by means of electron impact mass spectrometry. In all cases, corresponding ammonium cations have been detected at low electron energy. Moreover, [C+M]+ have been detected (where C and M denote ammonium cation and molecule, respectively) for both symmetrical salts and iodine salts. Quaternary ammonium salts are considered to be more stable than believed previously. 相似文献
