Evaluation of several pneumatic micronebulizers with different designs for use in ICP–AES and ICP–MS. Future directions for further improvement

This paper reports characterization of the behavior of five pneumatic micronebulizers based on slightly different designs in inductively coupled plasma atomic-emission spectrometry and mass spectrometry (ICP–AES and ICP–MS). Two nebulizers were used as reference nebulizers, a high-efficiency nebulizer (HEN) and a micromist (MM). They were compared with a commercially available PFA (tetrafluoroethylene–perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer) nebulizer and with two new prototypes called the polymeric pneumatic concentric nebulizer (PMN) and the high-solids micronebulizer (HSM). The dimensions of the nebulizers, the gas back-pressure, and the free liquid uptake rates were measured. The study also included tertiary aerosol drop-size distributions, analyte transport rate, and analytical figures of merit, i.e. sensitivities and limits of detection, both in ICP–AES and ICP–MS. Recoveries for two food solid reference materials were also determined. Overall, the results indicated that the PFA and the HEN nebulizers provided the best results. These two nebulizers delivered a higher mass of analyte to the plasma and showed better sensitivies giving lower limits of detection than the PMN, HSM and MM. The results revealed that the liquid prefilming effect occurring before aerosol production in the PFA nebulizer promoted more efficient interaction of liquid and gas, thus affording good results even though gas back-pressure values could be maintained below 3 bar. In contrast, the HEN had to be operated at about 7 bar under the same conditions. Nebulizer design did not have a relevant effect on the recovery, which confirmed that the spray chamber plays an important role in terms of non-spectroscopic interferences.     

Simultaneous digital image correlation/particle image velocimetry to unfold fluid–structure interaction during air-backed impact

Predicting the response of air-backed panels to impulsive hydrodynamic loading is essential to the design of marine structures operating in extreme conditions. Despite significant effort in this area of research, the lack of full-field measurement techniques of structural dynamics and flow physics hinders our understanding of the fluid–structure interaction. To fill this gap in knowledge, we designed a laboratory-scale experiment to elucidate fluid–structure interaction associated with impulsive hydrodynamic loading on a flexible plate. A combined experimental approach based on digital image correlation (DIC) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) was developed to afford spatially- and temporally-resolved measurements of the plate deflection and fluid velocity. From the velocity field measured through PIV, the hydrodynamic loading on the structure was estimated via a pressure-reconstruction algorithm. Experimental results point at a strong bidirectional coupling between structural dynamics and flow physics, which influence temporal and spatial patterns in counter-intuitive ways. While the plate deflection follows the fundamental in-vacuum mode shape of a clamped plate, the pressure exhibits a complex evolution. Not only does the location of the peak loading on the plate alternates between the clamp and the center as time progresses, but also the time evolution of the peak loading anticipated the peak displacement of the plate. This study contributes a new methodological approach to study fluid–structure interaction in three dimensions, offering insight in the physics of air-backed impact that could inform engineering design and scientific inquiry.     

Relations between pneumatic parameters of ideal gas in a column with uniform permeability

Summary This report was conceived as a source for the relations between five pneumatic parameters of carrier gas — inlet and outlet pressure, inlet and outlet velocity, and average velocity. Any pair of these parameters can be independent while the remaining three can be expressed as functions of the independent pair. As the total number of the independent pairs is ten, thirty different functions describing relations between arbitrary independent pairs and dependent parameters can be identified. All thirty were derived below together with the complete set of bounds for variations of independent parameters. To derive some relations, a third order rational equation had to be solved. Some properties of that solution are discussed. A simple case of vacuum operations with zero outlet pressure has also been considered.     

Three-phase upward flow in a vertical pipe

In this paper we develop an approach to design a three-phase, gas–solid–liquid flow system that transports pneumatically scarified solid particles, including sticky ones, through a vertical pipe. The proposed system permits the introduction and maintenance of a liquid film that coats the pipe’s inner wall and acts as a lubricant that ensures sticky particles continue to move upward without permanently adhering to the pipe wall. The system’s operating conditions fall within the boundaries of the annular dispersed region on a typical flow pattern map of vertical flow of a gas–liquid mixture. High gas superficial velocities combined with low liquid superficial velocities characterize such a region. A combination of a modified one-dimensional, two-fluid annular dispersed flow model and a one-dimensional pneumatic conveying model is shown to describe this transport process satisfactorily. Solution of the combined models produces all the necessary design parameters including power requirements and superficial velocities of the two-fluid media needed to transport a given amount of solid particles. Results of model calculations are compared with rare three-phase flow data obtained prior to the development of the present model, by an independent experimental team that used the physical conditions of the present approach. Reasonable agreement justifies the use of the combined model for engineering design purposes.

Magnetic relaxation dispersion probe

The magnetic field dependence of nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rates provides a powerful approach to characterizing intra and intermolecular dynamics. NMR spectrometers that provide extensive magnetic relaxation dispersion profiles may switch magnetic field strengths rapidly by either moving the sample or by changing the current in an electromagnet. If the sample is moved, the polarization and detection fields may be very high, which provides both high sensitivity and resolution. This report summarizes the design of a pneumatic sample transport system for glass sample containers that may be used in either a dual magnet spectrometer or in a single magnet system that exploits the fringe field as the secondary magnetic field.     

Predicting the mode of flow in pneumatic conveying systems-A review

An initial prediction of the particulate mode of flow in pneumatic conveying systems is beneficial as this knowledge can provide clearer direction to the pneumatic conveying design process.There are three general categories of modes of flow,two dense flows:fluidised dense phase and plug flow,and dilute phase only.Detailed in this paper is a review of the commonly used and available techniques for predicting mode of flow.Two types of predictive charts were defined:basic particle parameter based (e.g.particle size and density) and air-particle parameter based (e.g.permeability and de-aeration).The basic particle techniques were found to have strong and weak areas of predictive ability,on the basis of a comparison with data from materials with known mode of flow capability.It was found that there was only slight improvement in predictive ability when the particle density was replaced by loose-poured bulk density in the basic parameter techniques.The air-particle-parameter-based techniques also showed well-defined regions for mode of flow prediction though the data set used was smaller than that for the basic techniques.Also,it was found to be difficult to utilise de-aeration values from different researchers and subsequently,an air-particle-based technique was developed which does not require any de-aeration parameter in its assessment.     

Characterization of the gas pulse frequency,amplitude and velocity in non-steady dense phase pneumatic conveying of powders

Current modelling techniques for the prediction of conveying line pressure drop in low velocity dense phase pneumatic conveying are largely based on steady state analyses. Work in this area has been on-going for many years with only marginal improvements in the accuracy of prediction being achieved. Experimental and theoretical investigations undertaken by the authors suggest that the flow mechanisms involved in dense phase conveying are dominated by transient effects rather than those of steady state and are possibly the principal reasons for the limited improvement in accuracy. This paper reports on investigations on the pressure fluctuation behaviour in dense phase pneumatic conveying of powders. The pressure behaviour of the gas flow in the top section of the pipeline was found to exhibit pulsatile oscillations. In particular, the pulse velocity showed variation in magnitude while the frequency of the oscillations rarely exceeded 5 Hz. A wavelet analysis using the Daubechie 4 wavelet found that the amplitude of the oscillations increased along the pipeline. Furthermore, there was significant variation in gas pulse amplitude for different types of particulate material.     

CFD–DEM simulation of turbulence modulation in horizontal pneumatic conveying

A study is presented to evaluate the capabilities of the standard k–ε turbulence model and the k–ε turbulence model with added source terms in predicting the experimentally measured turbulence modulation due to the presence of particles in horizontal pneumatic conveying, in the context of a CFD–DEM Eulerian–Lagrangian simulation. Experiments were performed using a 6.5-m long, 0.075-m diameter horizontal pipe in conjunction with a laser Doppler anemometry (LDA) system. Spherical glass beads with two sizes, 1.5 and 2 mm, were used. Simulations were performed using the commercial discrete element method software EDEM, coupled with the computational fluid dynamics package FLUENT. Hybrid source terms were added to the conventional k–ε turbulence model to take into account the influence of the dispersed phase on the carrier phase turbulence intensity. The simulation results showed that the turbulence modulation depends strongly on the model parameter C_ε3. Both the standard k–ε turbulence model and the k–ε turbulence model with the hybrid source terms could predict the gas phase turbulence intensity trend only generally. A noticeable discrepancy in all cases between simulation and experimental results was observed, particularly for the regions close to the pipe wall. It was also observed that in some cases the addition of the source terms to the k–ε turbulence model did not improve the simulation results when compared with those of the standard k–ε turbulence model. Nonetheless, in the lower part of the pipe where particle loading was greater due to gravitational effects, the model with added source terms performed somewhat better.
