Mechanical simulation of the pressure and the relaxation to thermal equilibrium of a hot and dense rare gas cluster

A cold atomic cluster can be very rapidly heated and compressed by a hypersonic impact at a hard surface. The impact can be simulated by computing a classical trajectory for the motion of the atoms. By suddenly confining the hot and dense cluster within a rigid container, it is possible to monitor the time evolution of the force acting on the faces of the container. It is found that the pressure computed this way very rapidly decays to a time-independent value. After a somewhat longer time, this value reproduces the value for the pressure computed as the sum of the kinetic and internal pressures. This agreement is expected for a system in equilibrium. These observations support the conclusion that there is a fast relaxation to thermal equilibrium in these essentially hard-sphere systems. The deviation from equilibrium is primarily due to the propagation of shock waves within the cluster. The equilibrium pressure can reach up to the megabar range.     

射流携带床反应器液体停留时间分布及模拟

对射流携带床液体停留时间分布进行了研究，考察了液体流量、气体流量和气体动量对液体停留时间分布的影响。结果表明，增加液体流量使停留时间分布密度曲线变得高而窄，且平均停留时间变短；气体流量增大使得停留时间出峰略有提前，气体流量大于4L/min时，继续增大气体流量对液体停留时间分布影响较小；当液体流量小于60L/h时，气体动量对液体停留时间的影响较明显，主要表现气体动量越大液体平均停留时间越长。基于实验结果分析及实验中观测的现象，将射流携带床内液体流动结构分为中心区和壁面区进行研究，建立了描述射流携带床内液体停留时间分布的数学模型，模型模拟结果和实验数据吻合良好。     

Electroosmotically enhanced mass transfer through polyacrylamide gels

We present an internal pumping strategy to enhance solute fluxes in polymer gels. The method is based on electroosmotic flow driven by an electric field applied across a gel that has been doped with charged colloidal inclusions. This work is motivated by the need to enhance the transport in gel-based biosensor devices whose response dynamics are often mass transfer limited. In this case, polyacrylamide gel slabs were doped with immobilized, charged silica colloids, and the flux of a fluorescent tracer was measured as a function of applied field strength, the volume fraction and size of the colloidal silica inclusions, and the bulk electrolyte composition. Significant flux enhancements were achieved with applied electric currents on the order of a few mA. Control experiments indicated that the flux enhancement was not due to any distortion of the gel diffusional properties in response to the presence of the inclusions. At a constant inclusion volume fraction, the electroosmotic solute flux enhancement was strongest for the smallest particle sizes that provide the highest total surface area, consistent with the electroosmotic mechanism whereby fluid flow is generated along the solid/liquid interface.     

Theoretical considerations in the zone melting of organic substances Analysis of the diffusion gradient

Further evidence is gathered in the theory of the zone melting of organic compounds under ideal equilibrium conditions by a kinetic study of the diffusion gradient in the melt zone. A mathematical analysis is developed for the concentration distribution of impurities in the moving molten zone, which yields an expression for the concentration gradient at the liquid-solid recrystallisation interface. These expressions describe the transport process and a measure of the rate of segregation of impurity at the recrystallisation interface. In addition, these equations have been programmed on a computer and concentration profiles for two zone velocities have been graphed. It has been found that the concentration gradient is independent of the length of the zone under ideal equilibrium conditions for pure diffusion.     

Molecular dynamics simulation of nanodroplet spreading enhanced by linear surfactants

We utilize molecular dynamics simulations to probe the surfactant-mediated spreading of a Lennard-Jones liquid droplet on a solid surface. The surfactants are linear hexamers that are insoluble in the liquid and reduce the surface tension of the liquid-vapor interface. We study how the interaction of the surfactant hexamers with the solid substrate influences spreading, as well as the dependence of spreading on surfactant concentration. We find that the spreading speed is strongly influenced by the attraction of the hydrophobic surfactant tail to the solid surface. When this attraction is sufficiently strong, surfactant molecules partition to the liquid-solid interface and facilitate spreading. This partitioning can lead to an inhomogeneous distribution of surfactant over the liquid-vapor interface, which could drive the Marangoni convection. We also observe that the surfactant molecules can assemble into micelles on the solid surface. The repulsion between micelles at the liquid-solid interface can lead to break-off and migration of the micelles from the liquid-solid to the gas-solid interface and spreading is facilitated in this way. Our model system contains features that are believed to underlie superspreading in experimental studies of droplet spreading.     

A novel pseudo simulated moving bed with solvent gradient for ternary separations

A novel pseudo simulated moving bed was suggested to separate a ternary mixture. A solvent gradient was created to make the solvent strength decreasing from zone II to zone III. Under suitable conditions, the least retained solute A moved forward and the most retained solute C moved backward in zones II and III whereas the medium retained solute B moved forward in zone II but backward in zone III to be trapped in the two zones consequently. Once the columns in zones II and III were saturated with solute B, the solvent dissolving the feed was introduced at the feed port to remove solute A from the raffinate-port and solute C from the extract-port. Finally, solute B was recovered from the extract port by stopping the liquid flow in zone II. This scheme was validated by the successful separation of dihydrocapsaicin from capsaicinoids.     

Liquid slip on a nanostructured surface

We explored a liquid slip, referred to as the Navier slip, at liquid-solid interface. Such a slip is provoked by the physicochemical features of the liquid-solid system. The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of a nanoengineered surface structure on liquid slip by fabricating the self-assembly structure of nano Zinc oxide (n-ZnO). We have also examined how the liquid-solid surface interaction controlled by hydrophobic chemical treatment affects the liquid slip. The findings showed that liquid slip increases with decreasing the characteristic length scales (e.g., channel height and depth), resulting in drag reduction. It was also found that dewetted (Cassie) state due to the generation of air gap developed by n-ZnO was more critical for the liquid slip than the minimization of interface interaction. The linear and nonlinear Navier slip models showed that liquid slip behavior is more obvious when increasing the nonlinearity. This study will contribute to understanding of the underlying physics behind fluid slip phenomena, such as the Navier slip for Newtonian liquids and Maxwell's slip for Newtonian gases.     

Ab initio studies of layering behavior of liquid sodium surfaces and interfaces

We have studied the liquid surface of sodium with extensive ab initio molecular dynamics simulations based on ensemble density-functional theory. We find clear evidence of layering in the direction perpendicular to the surface that persists to temperatures more than 100 K above the melting point. We also observe clear Friedel oscillations in the electronic density response to the presence of a surface, but their direct effect on atomic layering is ruled out. A careful finite-size effect analysis accompanies our results, showing that liquid slabs 20-25 A thick capture the essential details of the surface structure. We conclude that geometrical confinement is the common cause for layer formation, which is similar to what happens at a liquid-solid interface: at a free liquid surface, the rapid decay of the electronic density from the bulk liquid value to zero in the vapor forms a hard wall against which the atoms pack. Finally, we predict x-ray reflectivities from ab initio molecular dynamics data that include some of the large surface-normal wave vector-transfer regions that, for alkali metals, are not accessible to experiments.     

Dispersion and holdup in a three-phase fluidized-bed bioreactor

Axial dispersion and phase holdup measurements were made using electroconductivity in a fermenting fluidized-bed bioreactor (FBR) and in a model nonfermenting three-phase FBR. Multiple axial conductivity probes were used to nonintrusively monitor the bed conductivity. The gas phase holdup was estimated from a ratio of the average bed conductivity and bulk conductivity. The solid fraction in the three-phase FBR can be estimated from the two-phase liquid-solid FBR. The response to a salt pulse was used to estimate the liquid axial dispersion coefficient. Particle Peclet numbers on the order of 10^-2 were estimated as a function of flowrates and compared to literature correlations.     

Partitioning and adsorption in gas-liquid-solid chromatography: Models of temporal moments for retention and variance

Summary The resolution of gaseous chemical species in gasliquid-solid chromatography is influenced by absorption (partitioning) in the liquid and adsorption at the liquid-solid interface. We consider fundamental mass transfer models with adsorption and partitioning effects for solid chromatographic supports covered with thin films of stationary liquid. The dynamic models, based on mass-balance partial-differential equations, include the significant phenomena: convection, axial dispersion, gas-liquid mass transfer, intraparticle diffusion, and liquid-solid adsorption. Expressions for retention time and band variance (first and second temporal moments) are presented and evaluated for four distinct models: (1) capillary tube with inner surface covered with a uniform-thickness liquid film, (2) column of nonporous spheres covered with a uniform-thickness liquid film, (3) porous spherical particles with intraparticle pores covered with a uniform-thickness liquid film, (4) porous spherical particles with intraparticle pores completely filled with liquid.
