In recent years, there has been an increase of interest in the flow of gases at relatively high pressures and high temperatures. Hydrodynamic calculation of the energy losses in the flow of gases in conduits, as well as through the porous media constituting natural petroleum reservoirs, requires knowledge of the viscosity of the fluid at the pressure and temperature involved. Although there are numerous publications concerning the viscosity of methane at atmospheric pressure, there appears to be little information available relating to the effect of pressure and temperature upon the viscosity. A survey of the literature reveals that the disagreements between published data on the viscosity of methane are common and that most investigations have been conducted over restricted temperature and pressure ranges. Experimental viscosity data for methane are presented for temperatures from 320 to 400 K and pressures from 3000 to 140000 kPa by using falling body viscometer. A summary is given to evaluate the available data for methane, and a comparison is presented for that data common to the experimental range reported in this paper. A new and reliable correlation for methane gas viscosity is presented. Predicted values are given for temperatures up to 400 K and pressures up to 140000 kPa with Average Absolute Percent Relative Error (EABS) of 0.794. 相似文献
Multilayer of TiO2 and TiO2:SiO2 thin films were grown on a glass substrate by sol?Cgel processes, followed by high temperature treatment at 500?°C. The fine grained TiO2 films controlled by SiO2 dopant showed very good wear resistance and endurance life. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy was used to indicate the elements in the films. X-ray diffraction analyses indicated that TiO2 and TiO2:SiO2 film contain only anatase phase. The morphologies of the original and worn surfaces of the samples were analyzed by means of scanning tunneling microscope and scanning electron microscopy. The tribological properties of TiO2 and TiO2:SiO2 thin films sliding against AISI52100 steel pin were evaluated on a pin on disk friction and wear tester. The results showed that 25-layer TiO2:SiO2 films are superior in reducing friction and resisting wear compared with the glass substrate. 相似文献
The single-wing extension of the bowl-shaped tribenzotriquinacene (TBTQ) framework with polycondensed aromatic hydrocarbon units has been reported. In the course of a Scholl reaction, one of the three-dimensional bays of the TBTQ core has been bridged by a PAH unit to generate a seven-membered ring within the merged TBTQ-(hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene) scaffold. 相似文献
It is shown that the obtained hardness and electrophilicity values of the short length oligomers for a heterocyclic conductive polymer from density functional theory method are quadraticly correlated to those obtained from semiempirical method. Therefore these quantities for all oligomers (up to 15 repeating units) are predicted using the obtained quadratic relations. Both of these predicted quantities for different oligomers are fitted to a new exponential model (Y = Y∞ ed/n) to estimate the electronic properties for the considered conjugated polymers. The calculated band gaps from this model show better agreement with the reported experimental data than those predicted by the previous models. Because of a wide range of variations, the electrophilicity could be a better index for investigating the doping effect in polymers than the hardness.
In this paper simulation of cavitating flow over the Clark-Y hydrofoil is reported using the large eddy simulation (LES) turbulence model and volume of fluid (VOF) technique. We applied an incompressible LES modelling approach based on an implicit method for the subgrid terms. To apply the cavitation model, the flow has been considered as a single fluid, two-phase mixture. A transport equation model for the local volume fraction of vapour is solved and a finite rate mass transfer model is used for the vapourization and condensation processes. A compressive volume of fluid (VOF) method is applied to track the interface of liquid and vapour phases. This simulation is performed using a finite volume, two phase solver available in the framework of the OpenFOAM (Open Field Operation and Manipulation) software package. Simulation is performed for the cloud and super-cavitation regimes, i.e., σ = 0.8, 0.4, 0.28. We compared the results of two different mass transfer models, namely Kunz and Sauer models. The results of our simulation are compared for cavitation dynamics, starting point of cavitation, cavity’s diameter and force coefficients with the experimental data, where available. For both of steady state and transient conditions, suitable accuracy has been observed for cavitation dynamics and force coefficients. 相似文献
In this paper, the homotopy analysis method (HAM) is employed to solve the linear optimal control problems (OCPs), which have a quadratic performance index. The study examines the application of the homotopy analysis method in obtaining the solution of equations that have previously been obtained using the Pontryagin’s maximum principle (PMP). The HAM approach is also applied in obtaining the solution of the matrix Riccati equation. Numerical results are presented for several test examples involving scalar and 2nd-order systems to demonstrate the applicability and efficiency of the method. 相似文献
In this paper a new mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model is proposed for the multi-processor open shop scheduling (MPOS) problems to minimize the makespan with considering independent setup time and sequence dependent removal time. A hybrid imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) with genetic algorithm (GA) is presented to solve this problem. The parameters of the proposed algorithm are tuned by response surface methodology (RSM). The performance of the algorithm to solve small, medium and large sized instances of the problem is evaluated by introducing two performance metrics. The quality of obtained solutions is compared with that of the optimal solutions for small sized instances and with the lower bounds for medium sized instances. Also some computational results are presented for large sized instances. 相似文献
The natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis, nucleus independent chemical shift (NICS), and 14N NQR parameters of the most stable tautomers of adenine in the gas phase were predicted using density functional theory method. The NBO analysis revealed that the resonance interaction between lone pair of the nitrogen atom and empty non‐Lewis NBO increases with increasing the p character of the nitrogen lone pair. The present investigation indicated the π clouds in both the considered heterocyclic rings containing six electrons, and these tautomers has the aromatic character. The NICS study utilizing the gauge‐invariant atomic orbital method showed that there are diatropic currents in the heterocyclic rings of the tautomers, so we determined the order of overall aromaticity of these tautomers. The results of NQR parameter calculations showed three parameters are effective on nuclear quadrupole coupling constant; the p character value of lone pair electrons of nitrogens, and the related occupancies and whenever, the lone pair electrons of nitrogens participate in the formation of chemical bond and/or π system of the ring, the qzz and consequently its χ decreases. 相似文献
