Correlation of TLC/densitometry-data with capillary GC-data of some main volatile components of essential oils

The results of the densitometric and the capillary gas chromatographic investigations of numerous lavender oils of different origin and of essential oils of the woody group were correlated. Especially the main components, the monoterpenes linalool (¯1) and linalyl acetate (¯2), were quantified by densitometry with an average standard deviation of 6–7% in the examined oils. The use of TLC in combination with densitometry in the quantification of the main components to essential oils is thus a valuable addition to capillary gas chromatographic investigation. In addition to this, a useful and efficient alternative is given to groups specialized in TLC/densitometry to obtain data on such volatile compounds of essential oils during quantification. The use of TLC/densitometry thus combines the advantage of LC-with detection of also less volatile compounds—and the possibility of the parallel investigation of more samples in one step in a very efficient way.     

Kinetic theory of hydrodynamic flows. I. The generalized normal solution method and its application to the drag on a sphere

We consider the flow of a dilute gas around a macroscopic heavy object. The state of the gas is described by an extended Boltzmann equation where the interactions between the gas molecules and the object are taken into account in computing the rate of change of the distribution function of the gas. We then show that the extended Boltzmann is equivalent to the usual Boltzmann equation, supplemented by boundary conditions imposed on the distribution function at the surface of the object. The remainder of the paper is devoted to a study of the solution of the extended Boltzmann equation in the case that the mean free path of a gas molecule is small compared to some characteristic dimension of the macroscopic object. We show that the Chapman-Enskog normal solution of the ordinary Boltzmann equation is not in general a solution of the extended equation near the surface of the object and must be supplemented by a boundary layer term. We then introduce a projection operator method which allows us to decompose the solution of the extended equation into a normal solution part and a boundary layer part when the gas flow is sufficiently slow. As a specific example of the method we consider the flow around a sphere, and derive the Stokes-Boussinesq form for the frequency-dependent force on the sphere for arbitrary slip coefficient. This derivation is the first one that starts from the Boltzmann equation for a general dilute gas and incorporates the effect of the boundary layer on the drag force.Work supported by the National Science Foundation.     

A unified approach to direct and inverse boundary layer solutions

A unified approach is presented for solving the two-dimensional incompressible boundary layer equations. Solutions are obtained for direct and inverse options using the same equation formulation by a simple interchange of boundary conditions. A modified form of the mechul function scheme obtains inverse solutions with specification of transformed wall shear, skin friction coefficient or displacement thickness distributions. Direct solutions may be obtained without altering the block tridiagonal structure of the system by simply requiring no corrections on the streamwise pressure gradient parameter. Fourth-order spline discretization approximates normal derivatives with two- and three-point backward differences approximating streamwise derivatives, yielding a fully implicit solution method. The resulting spline/finite difference equations are solved by Newton-Raphson iteration together with partial pivoting. The results of the study demonstrate the importance of proper linearization of all equations. The successful use of spline discretization is also tied to the use of strong two-point boundary conditions at the wall for cases involving reversed flow. Numerical solutions are presented for several non-similar flows and compared with published results.

Dusty effects on pulsating viscous flow of two immiscible fluids between two parallel plates

The flow of two immiscible incompressible dusty viscous fluids between two parallel plates generated by a pulsating pressure gradient is investigated. Velocity fields for the fluid-particle system along with the expressions for the skin friction drag at the plates are obtained and studied graphically. It is found that there is an immediate response to pressure fluctuations in the first stream at low frequency range 0<σ≤4 being maximum at σ=4. On the contrary, the second stream is more responsive to fluctuations at relatively higher frequencies. The maximum response in this case is shifted to σ=16.     

Improvement of amorphous silicon n-i-p solar cells by incorporating double-layer hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon structure

We develop a double-layer p-type hydrogenated nanocrystalline silicon (p-nc-Si:H) structure consisting of a low hydrogen diluted i/p buffer layer and a high hydrogen diluted p-layer to improve the hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) n-i-p solar cells. The electrical, optical and structural properties of p-nc-Si:H films with different hydrogen dilution ratio (R_H) are investigated. High conductivity, low activation energy and wide band gap are achieved for the thin films. Raman spectroscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) analyses indicate that the thin films contain nanocrystallites with grain size around 3-5 nm embedded in the amorphous silicon matrix. By inserting a p-nc-Si:H buffer layer at the i/p interface, the overall performance of the solar cell is improved significantly compared to the bufferless cell. The improvement is correlated with the reduction of the density of defect states at the i/p interface.
