Many modeling strategies for combustion rely on laminar flamelet concepts to determine structure and properties of multi-dimensional and turbulent flames. Using flamelet tabulation strategies, the user anticipates certain aspects of the combustion process prior to the simulation and selects a flamelet model which mimics local flame conditions in the more complex configuration. Flame stretch, which can be decomposed into contributions from strain and curvature, is one of the conditions influencing a flame’s properties, structure, and stability. The objective of this work is to study premixed flame structures in the strain-curvature space using a recently published composition space model (CSM) and three physical space models for canonical flame configurations (stagnation flame, spherical expanding flame and inwardly propagating flame). Flames with effective Lewis numbers both smaller and larger than unity are considered. For canonical laminar flames, the stretch components are inherently determined through boundary conditions and their specific flame configuration. Therefore, canonical flames can only represent a certain sub-set of stretch effects experienced by multi-dimensional and turbulent flames. On the contrary, the CSM allows arbitrary combinations of strain and curvature to be prescribed for premixed flames exceeding the conditions attainable with the canonical flame setups. Thereby, also influences of negative strain effects and large curvatures can be studied. A parameter variation with the CSM shows that flame structures still significantly change outside the region of the canonical flame configurations. Furthermore, limits in the strain-curvature space are discussed. The present paper highlights advantages of composition space modeling which is achieved by detaching the representation of the flame structure from a specific canonical flame configuration in physical space. 相似文献

Adsorptive separation of C2H6 from C2H4 by adsorbents is an energy-efficient and promising method to boost the polymer grades C2H4 production. However, that C2H6 and C2H4 display very similar physical properties, making their separation extremely challenging. In this work, by regulating the pore environment in a family of chitosan-based carbon materials (C-CTS-1, C-CTS-2, C-CTS-4, and C-CTS-6)- we target ultrahigh C2H6 uptake and C2H6/C2H4 separation, which exceeds most benchmark carbon materials. Explicitly, the C2H6 uptake of C-CTS-2 (166 cm3/g at 100 kPa and 298 K) has the second-highest adsorption capacity among all the porous materials. In addition, C-CTS-2 gives C2H6/C2H4 selectivity of 1.75 toward a 1:15 mixture of C2H6/C2H4. Notably, the adsorption enthalpies for C2H6 in C-CTS-2 are low (21.3 kJ/mol), which will facilitate regeneration in mild conditions. Furthermore, C2H6/C2H4 separation performance was confirmed by binary breakthrough experiments. Under different ethane/ethylene ratios, C-CTS-X extracts a low ethane concentration from an ethane/ethylene mixture and produces high-purity C2H4 in one step. Spectroscopic measurement and diffraction analysis provide critical insight into the adsorption/separation mechanism. The nitrogen functional groups on the surface play a vital role in improving C2H6/C2H4 selectivity, and the adsorption capacities depend on the pore size and micropore volume. Moreover, these robust porous materials exhibit outstanding stability (up to 800 °C) and can be easily prepared on a large scale (kg) at a low cost (~$26 per kg), which is very significant for potential industrial applications. 相似文献
Atopic dermatitis is characterized by leukocyte migration into the skin dermis and typically driven by excessive chemokine production at the site of inflammation. Conventional topical formulations such as gels, creams, and ointments are insufficient for this treatment because of low penetration of drug molecules into the targeted skin tissues. Herein, using a simple, green, sustainable strategy, we have developed novel primary zein nanoparticles embedded in curcumin (Cur) and coated with silk sericin (ZHSCs) for the topical delivery of Cur to penetrate into the dermis and exercise anti-dermatitis effects on the lesion with minimal side-effects. Transdermal delivery experiments and porcine skin fluorescence imaging indicated that ZHSCs facilitate the penetration of Cur across the epidermis layer of skin to reach deep-seated sites. Notably, ZHSCs = 1:0.25 (zein-to-silk sericin mass ratios of 1:0.25) markedly elevated the skin permeability and cumulative turnover of Cur transferred, which were provided a greater than a 3.8-fold increase relative to free Cur. The special nanoparticles of ZHS = 1:0.25 possessed the deepest localization depth and experience a transition of the particle structure and core-shell separation after penetrating into the dermis of skin. In a cell model of dermatitis induced by tumor necrosis factor α/interferon γ co-stimulation, compared with free Cur, Cur-loaded ZHS nanoparticles down-regulated the generation of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in keratinocytes through suppression of the nuclear translocation of NF-κBp65 and hence exerted an anti-dermatitis effect. This strategy may provide new avenues and direction for the demanding issues of valid topical delivery systems. 相似文献
The microfluidic chip for nucleic acid detection in vitro is an essential application of microfluidic technology to the process of in vitro diagnosis. The 90° bend microchannels in chip designed for facilitating assay reagent delivery may cause reagent residues and cast mutual contamination between detection reagents, which significantly affects the detection accuracy. In this paper, a two-dimensional gas–liquid two-phase flow model is constructed to simulate the liquid residue phenomenon. Using the results of simulation, the residual liquid generation can be observed and the area of residual liquid can be obtained. The accuracy of the numerical simulation is verified by comparison with the experimental results. The effects of the fillet radius R, the diameter ratio d1/d2 of the vertical to horizontal sections, the flow velocity v, and the surface roughness Ra on the residual amount are studied. We find that the fillet radius is inversely proportional to the residual amount within the range v = 20–100 mm/s and there is almost no liquid residue in the channel when the radius increases to R = 1 mm. When the channel diameter ratio d1/d2 increases, the liquid residual amount also increases by approximately 98%. The increased surface roughness Ra significantly increases the residual amount. The results of this study provide a reference for the optimal design of microchannels on chips.
