The extent and kinetics of droplet flocculation in emulsions was studied using ultrasonic attenuation spectroscopy. Flocculation in 10 wt.% soybean oil-in-water emulsions, stabilized by whey protein isolate (0.75 wt.%), was controlled by adjusting the pH (between 3 and 7) to alter the electrostatic interactions between the droplets. Droplet flocculation was then monitored by measuring the ultrasonic attenuation spectra (1–150 MHz) and by using laser light scattering. Extensive droplet flocculation was observed in the emulsions around the isoelectric point of the proteins (pH 3.5–5.5). Flocculation caused an appreciable change in the ultrasonic attenuation spectra, which was in good qualitative agreement with a theory recently developed to describe the ultrasonic properties of flocculated emulsions. Our results indicate that ultrasonic spectroscopy is a powerful tool for monitoring both the extent and kinetics of flocculation in concentrated emulsions in situ. 相似文献

Today the needs for safer, cleaner and more affordable civil aero engines are found to be of great importance. Five years ago, the EU initiated an action for the design and the construction of efficient and environmentally friendly aero engines (EEFAE). One of the major European gas turbine industries, MTU, has presented a new technology for an advanced aero engine design, which uses an alternative thermodynamic cycle. The basis of this cycle is the adoption of a recuperation part with the use of a system of heat exchangers, installed in the exhaust nozzle of the aircraft engine. Thermal energy in the turbine exhaust is used in the recuperator to pre-heat the compressor outlet air before combustion. The benefits of this technique are focused on reduced pollutants and decreased fuel consumption. In this work, the procedure of the optimization of this installation, by means of the imposed pressure drop downstream the aircraft engine and the balanced mass inflow to the heat exchangers is presented. The optimization is based on experimental measurements in laboratory conditions and preliminary 2D CFD modeling for the flow inside the exhaust duct and through the heat exchangers. It is shown that with a careful approach, a better arrangement of the heat exchangers can be achieved in order to have a minimum pressure drop in the exhaust nozzle which can positively affect the engine’s performance. 相似文献

Summary A generalized ohm's law is used to predict changes in the direction and magnitude of the momentum of a stream of plasma in a crossed field accelerator in terms of plasma properties and species temperatures and concentrations. Measurements are reported of accelerator thrust, plasma jet deflection angle, current-voltage characteristics, accelerator inlet momentum, cooling rates and cross-arc power input for argon and helium plasmas. Estimates are given of the mean values of some of the parameters of argon and helium plasma obtained under nonequilibrium conditions. These results are compared with other methods requiring the assumption of LTE.This work was supported in part by the U.S. Air Force through the Propulsion Division, Directorate of Engineering Sciences, Office of Aerospace Research, AFOSR, under contract AF 49(638)-1445. 相似文献
