Exact solutions to magnetogasdynamic equations in Lagrangian coordinates

The Lie group of point transformations, which leave the equations for a simplified model of one dimensional ideal gas in magnetogasdynamics invariant, are used to obtain some exact solutions for the governing system of hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs). Similarity variables which reduces the governing system of PDEs into system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are determined through the transformations. The resulting ODEs are solved analytically to obtain some exact solutions that exhibits space-time dependence. Further, we study the propagation of weak discontinuity through a state characterized by one of the solutions.     

The significance of a second adsorption phase with weakly adsorbed species for the calculation of the surface concentrations of a mixture: methanol–DME and methanol–ethene adsorption in SAPO-34

With the calorimetric (adsorption heat versus coverage) curve also measured together with the adsorption isotherm, the simultaneous use of both curves showed that there were two phases of adsorption in the adsorption of methanol, dimethyl ether, ethene and propane in SAPO-34. The dual-site Langmuir equation gave good fits to the adsorption data to support the interpretation that a second (type 2) adsorption phase occurred in the high-pressure region in addition to a first (type 1) adsorption phase on the acid sites at lower pressures. Adsorption experiments and calculations using binary gas mixtures showed that due to the existence of two types of adsorption, the multicomponent Langmuir isotherm equation (Langmuir competitive adsorption model) calculated incorrect surface concentrations when the concentrations were high. In contrast, the ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) calculated correct surface concentrations in the adsorption of mixtures.
