Develop dissipative particle dynamics method to study the fluid flow and heat transfer of Ar and O2 flows in the micro- and nanochannels with precise atomic arrangement versus molecular dynamics approach

Fluid atomic behavior is an important factor for industrial applications. Computer simulations based on simple models predict Poiseuille flow for these atomic structures with the presence of external force. In this work, we describe the dynamical properties of Ar and O₂ flows with precise atomic arrangement via dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation approaches. In these methods, each model is represented by using Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator package. Simulation results show that maximum rate for velocity of Ar flow in platinum and copper microchannels is 0.100 (unit less)/0.091 Å ps^?1 and 0.121 (unit less)/0.105 Å ps^?1 by using DPD/MD approach. This atomic parameter changes to 0.111 (unit less)/0.102 Å ps^?1 and 0.125 (unit less)/0.108 Å ps^?1 for O₂ fluid with mentioned approaches. By decreasing the microchannel size, the maximum rate of velocity reaches to 0.101 (unit less)/0.099 Å ps^?1 and maximum temperature rate decreases to 485 (unit less)/440 K with DPD/MD approaches. These calculated parameters can be used in industrial application designing for some processes such as heat transfer in structures. It was seen that the developed DPD approach was able to simulate the fluid flow and heat transfer of various types of fluids at micro- and nanoscales with suitable accuracy versus MD.

     

Solid-phase extraction of Pb2+ ion from environmental samples onto L-AC-Ag-NP by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS)

The development of a solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure for the pre-concentration of trace amounts of Pb²⁺ ion on 2-furan-2-yl-1-furan-2-ylmethyl-1H-benzoimidazole loaded on activated carbon modified with silver nanoparticles (L-AC-Ag-NP) was presented. The metal ion retained on the sorbent was quantitatively determined via complexation with the ligand. The complexed metal ion was efficiently eluted using 10 mL of 4 mol L^?1 sulphuric acid in 10 w/v% acetone. The influences of the analytical parameters, including pH, amounts of the ligand and the solid phase, eluent conditions and sample volume, on the recoveries of the metal ion were optimised. Using the optimised parameters, the linear response of the SPE method for Pb²⁺ ion were in the ranges of 0.2–160 µg L^?1, and the detection limit for Pb²⁺ ion was 0.034 µg L^?1. The proposed method exhibits a pre-concentration factor (PF) of 80 and an enhancement factor of 30 for Pb²⁺ ion. The presented results demonstrate the successful application of the proposed method for the determination of Pb²⁺ ion in some real samples with high recoveries (>93%) and reasonable relative standard deviation (RSD < 2%).

The quantum de Rham complexes associated with SL h (2)

Quantum de Rham complexes on the quantum plane and the quantum group itself are constructed for the nonstandard deformation of Fun(SL(2)). It is shown that in contrast to the standardq-deformation of SL(2), the above complexes are unique for SL _h (2). Also, as a byproduct, a new deformation of the two-dimensional Heisenberg algebra is obtained which can be used to construct models ofh-deformed quantum mechanics.
