易起泡物系消泡构件的研究

以空气-5%碳酸钾水溶液为实验物系，与空气-水物系作对照，测试了3种不同构件在筛板塔中的消泡功能。采用测量4次取平均的办法得到泡沫层高度，并结合毛细管光束检测技术测得气泡平均直径和气泡大小分布，通过对比分析，最值得推荐的消泡构件是距离塔板一定高度设置板波填料。     

一种具有机械消泡功能的新型塔板

研究开发了一种具有机械消泡功能的新型塔板。该塔板是在普通塔板上放置一种特制的新型机械消泡构件。该构件由相互平行的波纹消泡板组成,构件下半部分沉浸在塔板泡沫层中,起削弱泡沫层波峰高度和降低泡沫层高度的作用,上半部分处于泡沫层上部的气相空间,起惯性除沫的作用。实验结果表明:对于易起泡物系,机械消泡构件能降低雾沫夹带量61%~76%,并大幅削弱泡沫层表面过高的泡沫波峰;对不易起泡物系,机械消泡构件还能降低泡沫层高度15.2%~17.1%。因此,该塔板可以起到延缓塔板泡沫层过高液泛和过量雾沫夹带液泛的作用,具有良好的消泡效果。     

鼓泡破泡一体化高效精馏塔盘流动特性与CFD模拟

就痕量精馏中塔板传质效率低、需强化气液传质的问题,研究者提出了新型鼓泡破泡一体化高效精馏塔盘,通过在筛板上泡沫层高度范围内设置一层破泡装置,打破大气泡,减小气泡体积,强制界面进行更新,从而提高传质效率。采用双欧拉模型分别对鼓泡破泡一体化塔盘和筛板进行了气液流场的数值模拟,并对模型进行了验证。对比两种塔板的计算结果可以看出:在相同操作条件下,破泡装置将大气泡破裂成无数小气泡,使高气含率区域面积较普通筛板进一步增大,且气含率梯度变化更均匀;增加破泡装置后,在相同气速条件下气泡上升速度下降,气体在液层中的滞留时间延长,使鼓泡层高度增加,可显著提高传质效率,且降低了气体雾沫夹带量;破泡装置还明显改善了气相的纵向分布,气含率由塔板底部向上逐渐增大且存在明显分界;破泡装置附近湍动较剧烈,气泡破碎喷出的气体会进一步撕裂液膜,气体破碎作用会抑制气泡聚并,促进界面的快速更新更有利于传质过程的进行。研究结果可对工业塔板设计和优化提供指导。

流化床中气泡的汇合长大和床层膨胀

根据文中提出的沿单位床层高度气泡平均直径的长大与气泡在水平面内的平均分开程度成比例的简化模型和已有的大量实验数据,获得了气泡沿床高长大的计算方程 本文还根据两相邻生成的初始气泡的垂直中心距与初始气泡直径成正比的简化模型及已有的实验数据,提出了初始气泡直径D_B_0的计算方程 基于上述获得的方程式以及假定鼓泡流化床的床层膨胀纯因气泡存在所造成,本文还导得了自由鼓泡流化床膨胀高度的计算式     

基于传质强化的微气泡塔盘流动特性实验的研究

筛板塔塔内件的作用主要是增大气液比表面积,改变气液接触形式,以提高塔内传质、传热。研究者提出了新型微气泡塔盘,通过在筛板上方的泡沫层内增加破泡组件,利用破泡组件使大气泡破裂为小气泡,增加气液接触面积,提高气液传质、传热效果。利用自行设计的筛板塔和微气泡塔盘实验平台及PIV测速系统,测定了塔板上气泡的直径分布和上升速度。实验结果显示:与普通筛板相比较,微气泡塔盘上气泡的上升速度较小,气泡停留时间更长,且径向分布更平坦;气泡直径也仅为筛板的1/16,气液接触的比表面积增大,更利于传质过程的进行。     

二甲苯鼓泡吸收及模型研究

针对工业中一些尾气中二甲苯的回收,用二甲苯液体对其进行吸收,利于环保。通过建立鼓泡模型,给出了在不同管径下,气泡形状因子,最大气泡直径,鼓泡频率,最大上升高度等的变化规律。研究表明：气泡的形状因子随喷嘴内径和雷诺数的增大而增大;最大气泡直径随喷嘴内径的增大几乎成线性增大;鼓泡频率随喷嘴内径的增大而明显减小;最大上升高度则随着喷嘴内径的增大而增大,但幅度较小。     

塔板上气泡直径的模拟计算

塔板上气液泡沫层传质面积对传质速率影响很大.传质面积由气泡的直径、大小分布和浓度所决定.气泡大小受塔板上流体力学状况影响,要对塔板上的气泡直径和分布进行可靠的模拟计算,就要对板上泡沫层的流体力学状况有着透彻了解,而板上流体力学状况十分复杂,因此,气泡直径的模拟计算和测定都很困难.气泡直径的模拟计算有两类方法--局部法和总体法.先简介局部法模拟计算气泡直径方法,然后进行总体法模拟计算气泡直径研究.通过建立一个数学模型,对塔板上泡沫层的气泡直径进行模拟计算,模拟计算结果和文献报道的实验测定结果基本一致.     

温度压力对黏性流体中孔口气泡生成的影响

温度压力对孔口气泡生成过程具有重要影响。以氮气-硅油气液体系为对象,在自行设计加工的高温高压可视化鼓泡塔中,采用高速摄像法,观察了单孔气体进料时孔口气泡的形成过程,测定了气泡直径与纵横比,考察了孔口气速(0～1 000 cm×s~(-1))、温度(283～473K)、压力(0～3 MPa)以及孔径(1.12和2.5 mm)对气泡生长过程的影响。实验表明,黏性液体中呈现出大小气泡成对产生的双气泡生成模式;气泡直径随温度和压力升高而减小;低温时压力对气泡直径影响较小,高温时影响显著。通过与以往气泡直径关联式进行对比,修正了GADDIS提出的气泡直径模型,得出新的适用于高温高压条件下气泡直径的估算式。     

CTST-MD复合型塔板降液管流体力学性能的实验研究

结合立体传质塔板(CTST)和悬挂式降液管各自的优势,在CTST塔板的基础上组合悬挂式降液管。以此为实验塔板,在直径为570 mm的有机玻璃塔中以空气-水为实验物料进行冷漠实验,对此种塔板的板压降、降液管的液层高度、液流孔孔流系数等流体力学性能进行了实验研究,并与鼓泡型塔板进行了对比。结果表明,复合型立体传质塔板的板压降低于弓形降液管的CTST和悬挂式降液管的筛板(MD筛板)。在高液相负荷下,复合立体传质塔板降液管液层高度远低于MD筛板,具有更大的液体处理能力。悬挂式降液管液流孔的孔流系数主要与开孔的水力半径有关,受开孔率影响较小。得到了复合立体传质塔板降液管几种孔型的孔流系数值。

Direct observation of freeze-thaw instability of latex coatings via high pressure freezing and cryogenic SEM

Despite its industrial importance, the subject of freeze-thaw (F/T) stability of latex coatings has not been studied extensively. There is also a lack of fundamental understanding about the process and the mechanisms through which a coating becomes destabilized. High pressure (2100 bar) freezing fixes the state of water-suspended particles of polymer binder and inorganic pigments without the growth of ice crystals during freezing that produce artifacts in direct imaging scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of fracture surfaces of frozen coatings. We show that by incorporating copolymerizable functional monomers, it is possible to achieve F/T stability in polymer latexes and in low-VOC paints, as judged by the microstructures revealed by the cryogenic SEM technique. Particle coalescence as well as pigment segregation in F/T unstable systems are visualized. In order to achieve F/T stability in paints, latex particles must not flocculate and should provide protection to inorganic pigment and extender particles. Because of the unique capabilities of the cryogenic SEM, we are able to separate the effects of freezing and thawing, and study the influence of the rate of freezing and thawing on F/T stability. Destabilization can be caused by either freezing or thawing. A slow freezing process is more detrimental to F/T stability than a fast freezing process; the latter actually preserves suspension stability during freezing.

Gordon Best Paper Competition.     

Ethanol and (−)-α-Pinene: Attractant Kairomones for Bark and Ambrosia Beetles in the Southeastern US

In 2002–2004, we examined the flight responses of 49 species of native and exotic bark and ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae and Platypodidae) to traps baited with ethanol and/or (−)-α-pinene in the southeastern US. Eight field trials were conducted in mature pine stands in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Funnel traps baited with ethanol lures (release rate, about 0.6 g/day at 25–28°C) were attractive to ten species of ambrosia beetles (Ambrosiodmus tachygraphus, Anisandrus sayi, Dryoxylon onoharaensum, Monarthrum mali, Xyleborinus saxesenii, Xyleborus affinis, Xyleborus ferrugineus, Xylosandrus compactus, Xylosandrus crassiusculus, and Xylosandrus germanus) and two species of bark beetles (Cryptocarenus heveae and Hypothenemus sp.). Traps baited with (−)-α-pinene lures (release rate, 2–6 g/day at 25–28°C) were attractive to five bark beetle species (Dendroctonus terebrans, Hylastes porculus, Hylastes salebrosus, Hylastes tenuis, and Ips grandicollis) and one platypodid ambrosia beetle species (Myoplatypus flavicornis). Ethanol enhanced responses of some species (Xyleborus pubescens, H. porculus, H. salebrosus, H. tenuis, and Pityophthorus cariniceps) to traps baited with (−)-α-pinene in some locations. (−)-α-Pinene interrupted the response of some ambrosia beetle species to traps baited with ethanol, but only the response of D. onoharaensum was interrupted consistently at most locations. Of 23 species of ambrosia beetles captured in our field trials, nine were exotic and accounted for 70–97% of total catches of ambrosia beetles. Our results provide support for the continued use of separate traps baited with ethanol alone and ethanol with (−)-α-pinene to detect and monitor common bark and ambrosia beetles from the southeastern region of the US.     

Methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates Attract Stink Bugs and Tachinid Parasitoids

Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Pentatomidae), called the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), is a newly invasive species in the eastern USA that is rapidly spreading from the original point of establishment in Allentown, PA. In its native range, the BMSB is reportedly attracted to methyl (E,E,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate, the male-produced pheromone of another pentatomid common in eastern Asia, Plautia stali Scott. In North America, Thyanta spp. are the only pentatomids known to produce methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoate [the (E,Z,Z)-isomer] as part of their pheromones. Methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates were field-tested in Maryland to monitor the spread of the BMSB and to explore the possibility that Thyanta spp. are an alternate host for parasitic tachinid flies that use stink bug pheromones as host-finding kairomones. Here we report the first captures of adult and nymph BMSBs in traps baited with methyl (E,E,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate in central Maryland and present data verifying that the tachinid, Euclytia flava (Townsend), exploits methyl (E,Z,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate as a kairomone. We also report the unexpected finding that various isomers of methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoate attract Acrosternum hilare (Say), although this bug apparently does not produce methyl decatrienoates. Other stink bugs and tachinids native to North America were also attracted to methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates. These data indicate there are Heteroptera in North America in addition to Thyanta spp. that probably use methyl 2,4,6-decatrienoates as pheromones. The evidence that some pentatomids exploit the pheromones of other true bugs as kairomones to find food or to congregate as a passive defense against tachinid parasitism is discussed.
