Interaction between droplet combustion and acoustic oscillation is clarified. As the simplest model, an isolated fuel droplet is combusted in a standing sound wave. Apart from the conventional idea that oscillatory component of flow influences heat and mass transfer and promotes combustion, a new model that a secondary flow dominates combustion promotion is examined. The secondary flow, found by the authors in the previous work, is driven by acoustic radiation force due to Reynolds normal stress, and named as thermo-acoustic streaming. Since the force is described by the same equation as buoyancy, i.e., F = ΔρVg, the nature of the streaming is thought to be the same as natural convection. The flow patterns of the streaming are analyzed and its influence on burning rate of a droplet is predicted. Experimental investigation was mainly done with burning droplets located in the middle of node and anti-node of standing sound waves. This location realizes the strongest streaming. By varying sound pressure level, ambient pressure, and acoustic frequency, the strength of the streaming was controlled. Flame configuration including soot and burning rate were examined. Microgravity conditions were employed to clarify the influence of acoustic field through the streaming, since it is similar to and must be distinguished from natural convection. Experiments using microgravity conditions confirmed the new combustion promotion model and the way to quantify it. By introducing a new non-dimensional number Gra, that is the ratio of acoustic radiation force to viscosity, burning rate constants for various ambient and sound conditions are rearranged. As a result, it was found that the excess burning rate (k/k0 − 1) is proportional to or , for weak sound and for strong sound, respectively. 相似文献
The catalytic enantioselective carbonyl addition reaction has long attracted the interest of chemists because of its synthetic importance. Although many highly enantioselective reactions have been developed, with few exceptions the reactions are carried out at relatively high catalyst loadings, making them less practical for scale‐up applications. In addition, organometallic reagents employed as carbon nucleophiles have been limited to those with relatively low reactivity, such as diorganozincs and arylboronic acids. In an effort to enhance the practicality, a highly active and enantioselective chiral titanium catalyst system was recently developed in our laboratory, enabling the enantioselective carbonyl addition reaction to aldehydes using various organometallic reagents (RM; M = MgX, Li, BY2, ZnX, AlMe2) at lower catalyst loadings (≤5 mol %).
Electrical transport properties of C60 and C59N encapsulated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are investigated by fabricating them as the channels of field effect transistor (FET) devices at room temperature. Their measurements indicate that C60@SWNTs exhibit the enhanced p-type characteristics compared with the case of pristine SWNTs, whereas C59N@SWNTs show the n-type behavior. The novel transport properties of peapods can be explained by the charge-transfer effect, which can modify the electronic structure of SWNTs. 相似文献
In this study, a silica stationary phase modified with sulfoxide group and ammonium-salt was prepared for the separation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from mineral oils, and its properties were investigated. Organic sulfide was attached to a diamino (primary and secondary amino) bonded silica surface by an amide bond, and the bonded sulfide groups were oxidized with periodate to afford sulfoxide groups bonded to the stationary phase. The secondary amino groups in the spacer chain were converted to ammonium-salt by the addition of hydrochloric acid. The sulfoxide group and ammonium-salt bonded stationary phase was tested for their suitability as adsorbent for SPE-type preparative short columns and for an analytical HPLC-type separation. The new stationary phase (1.2 mmol of sulfur bonded per gram) separated PCBs from mineral oils (paraffin-based transformer oils) more efficiently than previously reported stationary phases including sulfoxide group or ammonium-salt bonded ones. The quantitative chromatographic parameters for an aliphatic hydrocarbon (eicosane) and some PCB congeners also indicated strong retention of highly chlorinated biphenyls by the sulfoxide and ammonium-salt bonded silica compared with simple aminopropyl, sulfoxide group or ammonium-salt bonded ones. A cleanup procedure was established for simple determination of PCBs in mineral oil samples using sulfoxide group and ammonium-salt bonded silica packed column fractionation. The analytical method, combination of the cleanup procedure, and measurement with a GC-high resolution (magnetic sector) MS or a GC-quadrupole MS were validated using mineral oil certified reference materials. 相似文献
Atom-economical carbocyclization reactions of omega-iodo-1-alkynes and 1,omega-diiodo-1-alkynes to give products with incorporation of iodine atoms is described. Cycloisomerization of 2-(2-propynyloxy)ethyl iodides is initiated by a catalytic amount of LDA to give 3-(iodomethylene)tetrahydrofurans in high yields. Upon treatment of with a catalytic amount of 1-hexynyllithium, 1,omega-diiodo-1-alkynes efficiently undergo cycloisomerization to give (diiodomethylene)cycloalkanes. The diiodomethylene products are also obtained by iodine atom-transfer-type cyclization of omega-iodo-1-alkynes, using 1-iodo-1-hexyne as an external iodine atom source. Bromine atom-transfer and proton-transfer cyclization proceed as well by employing 1-bromo-1-octyne and 1-octyne, respectively. These reactions are proposed to proceed through a carbenoid-chain process involving exo-cyclization of the lithium acetylide intermediates to give Li,I-alkylidene carbenoids. It is shown that the exo-cyclization proceeded stereospecifically through inversion of the stereochemistry at the electrophilic carbon. 相似文献
First the relation between shift self-similar additive sequences and stationary sequences of Ornstein–Uhlenbeck type (OU type) on \(\mathbb {R}^d\) is shown, and then the rates of escape for shift self-similar additive sequences are discussed. As a corollary, fundamental problems on recurrence of stationary sequences of OU type are solved. Some applications to laws of the iterated logarithm for strictly stable Lévy processes on \(\mathbb {R}^d\) and independent Brownian motions are given. 相似文献
New Lycopodium alkaloids, lyconadins C (1) and F (2), were isolated from the club moss Lycopodium complanatum. Lyconadin C (1) is a new C16N2-type Lycopodium alkaloid possessing unique fused-tetracyclic ring system consisting of a cycloheptene ring fused to a decahydroquinoline and pyridone rings. Lyconadin F (2) possesses a primary amide moiety in its molecular, which is the first example of Lycopodium alkaloids. Biogenetically, lyconadins C (1) and F (2) might be related to lyconadins A (4) and B (5). The structures and relative stereochemistry of 1 and 2 were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. The absolute stereochemistry of 2 was elucidated by chemical correlations with lyconadin B (5) through hemiaminal form of lyconadin F (3). 相似文献
