On the thermophoresis of a spheroidal solid aerosol particle

The steady motion of a spheroidal aerosol particle with inner nonuniformly distributed heat sources (sinks) that is placed in an external temperature gradient is theoretically studied in the Stokes approximation. The mean temperature of the particle surface is assumed to differ slightly from that of the gaseous environment. An analytic expression for the force and rate of thermophoresis are found by solving the gas-dynamic equations in view of the motion of the environment.     

Motion of a Hot Spheroidal Solid Particle in a Viscous Fluid

An expression for the drag force on a spheroidal hydrosol particle is obtained for arbitrary temperature differences between the particle surface and the far region and with account for the temperature dependence of the viscosity represented in the form of an exponential-power series.     

Effect of Particle Surface Heating on the Sedimentation Rate

The Stokes and Hadamard-Rybchinsky formulas are generalized, making it possible to take into account the temperature dependence of viscosity in a wide range of temperatures and to calculate the force of resistance to motion and velocity of gravitational fall at arbitrary temperature differences between the particle surface and a remote region.

Effect of milled fluidised bed cracking catalyst waste on hydration of calcium aluminate cement and formation of binder structure

The effect of Bi addition on precipitation and dissolution, in Cu–9at% In and Cu–5at% Sb supersaturated solid solutions, has been studied by several complementary techniques. Differential Dilatometry and Differential Scanning Calorimetry permit only the analysis of the δ phase dissolution kinetic in sufficiently aged samples. Delayed spheroidization due to Bi segregation around the precipitated lamellae, observed by Transmission Electron Microscopies in the first alloy, gives a residual interfacial energy leading to accelerated δ phase dissolution with decreased activation energy. Kinetics parameters evolution indicates a progressive δ phase continuous dissolution which makes available a small chemical driving force at high temperatures and leads to an increasing activation energy during dissolution. However, Bi dispersed particles in the second alloy haven’t effect on the dissolution but they cause a contraction above 833 K. Kinetics parameters evolution indicates rapid δ phase dissolution that shifted to high temperatures where an important chemical driving force for solution treatment is available. It leads to almost constant activation energy.

Investigation of Boundary-Value Problem for Stationary System of Equations of Viscous Non-Isothermal Fluid

In the Stokes approximation at small Reynolds and Peclet numbers, we obtain a solution to the boundary-value problem of flow around of particles of spherical shape for stationary system of equations of a viscous non-isothermal fluid comprising a linearized by speed Navier–Stokes equation system and the equation of heat transfer given an exponential-power law of dependence of viscosity of fluid on temperature.     

Gravity-induced motion of a uniformly heated solid particle in a gaseous medium

The steady motion of a uniformly heated spherical aerosol particle in a viscous gaseous medium is analyzed in the Stokes approximation under the condition that the mean temperature of the particle surface can be substantially different from the ambient temperature. An analytical expression for the drag force and the velocity of gravity-induced motion of the uniformly heated spherical solid particle is derived with allowance for temperature dependences of the gaseous medium density, viscosity, and thermal conductivity. It is numerically demonstrated that heating of the particle surface has a significant effect on the drag and velocity of gravity-induced motion. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 49, No. 1, pp. 74–80, January–February, 2008.
