Abstract Based on the continuum theory, a physical model of gas-solid two phase flow in a centrifugal fluidized bed has been proposed. A set of governing equations to describe the fluidization state are obtained and solved numerically after some simplifying. The quantitative experimental study on the characteristics of the incipient fluidization in the centrifugal fluidized bed is performed to examine the proposed model. Gas-solid two phase heat transfer in CFB during a drying process is also conducted. The influences of bed thickness, particle diameter, physical properties of particle, rotating speed of the bed and the gas superficial velocity on heat transfer characteristics are examined. A correlation that can be used to calculate the heat transfer coefficients in the drying process in CFB is obtained. 相似文献
For a delay-constrained multicast transmission request, the goal of delay-constrained survivable multicast routing problem is to provide the primary multicast tree and the tree protecting sparse resources. The shared segment-based protection (SSBP) method is used in this article to protect the delay-constrained multicast transmission. Two heuristic methods are proposed to find the delay-constrained primary tree and the backup segments with delay constraint. Experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed methods, and the performance to be evaluated includes wavelength efficiency ratio (WER), blocking ratio (BR), and executing time. Simulations show that the SSBP method can get better BR and WER than the previous results demonstrated Din and Jiang (Comput Commun 35(10):1172–1184, 2012). 相似文献
Since pervaporation process is the coupling of solution and diffusion mechanisms, a sorption study was carried out with membranes prepared by cross-linking polyvinylalcohol (PVA) and polidimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Tartaric acid (Tac) was used as the cross-linking agent for PVA, and a commercial cross-linking agent was used for PDMS. Sorption experiments were carried out at 30-50°C temperature range in pure water and ethyl acetate using the films prepared. The PVA and PDMS films prepared preferentially sorb water and ethylacetate, respectively. A pervaporation study at 30°C was carried out for pure ethylacetate and pure water, and mixtures of ethylacetate containing 2 and 2.5 wt% water using 100 w m thick PVA membrane. The results indicate that the PVA membrane prepared is extremely selective for water. 相似文献
Chemical doping and coating have been considered as efficient semiconductor physics strategies to modulate the physical, chemical, and biological properties of materials for the required applications. In this study, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) stabilizer-capped nickel-doped cupric oxide (NixCu1?xO) nanoparticles (NPs) with different doping concentrations (0.0?≤?x?≤?0.05) were synthesized via a one-step rapid and low-cost solvothermal synthesis route. The as-synthesized CTAB-capped NixCu1?xO NPs have been sightseen for their structural/morphological, optical/dielectric, and antimicrobial properties using XRD/SEM/TEM, FT-IR/UV–visible/Impedance spectroscopies, and Agar well diffusion method, respectively. Relevant results show enhanced optical, dielectric and antimicrobial properties with Ni doping due to the smaller size effect. Importantly, in vitro examination, the antimicrobial activity of the grown NPs was evaluated against four microbial species, exhibits that the CTAB-capped Ni-doped CuO NPs possess a command antimicrobial toxicity to Staphylococcus aureus (25923-ATCC), Klebsiella pneumoniae (700603-ATCC), and Escherichia coli (25922-ATCC) and an intermediate performance towards Candida albicans (24433-ATCC). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay for the obtained CTAB-Ni0.05Cu0.95O sample upon S. aureus or K. pneumoniae pathogens reaches extremely as low as 5 μg ml?1 for all reported CuO NPs. The improved dose-dependent antimicrobial effect has been found to be strongly dependent on the particle size, surface morphology, elemental compositions, and surface bio-functionality of the catalytic nanomaterials. Additionally, Ni-dopant, CTAB-stabilizer, and binding of Cu+/Cu2+ ions with respiratory enzymes collectively produce an excess amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the bacterial culture medium, which determines a predominant antibacterial mechanism for bacterial cells damage. Overall, these inorganic (NixCu1?xO) NPs with antimicrobial cationic surfactant (CTAB) have advantages to use as a functionalized disinfection nanoagent to control the microbial infections in the healthcare sector together with various electronic and photonic medical diagnoses.
For several decades, there has been considerable interest in marine‐derived long chain n‐3 fatty acids (n‐3 LCPUFAs) due to their outstanding health benefits. n‐3 LCPUFAs can be found in nature either in triglycerides (TAGs) or in phospholipid (PL) form. From brain health point of view, PL n‐3 is more bioavailable and potent compared to n‐3 in TAG form, as only PL n‐3 is able to cross the blood–brain barrier and can be involved in brain biochemical reactions. However, PL n‐3 has been ignored in the fish oil industry and frequently removed as an impurity during degumming processes. As a result, PL products derived from marine sources are very limited compared to TAG products. Commercially, PLs are being used in pharmaceutical industries as drug carriers, in food manufacturing as emulsifiers and in cosmetic industries as skin care agents, but most of the PLs used in these applications are produced from vegetable sources that contain less (without EPA, DPA, and DHA) or sometimes no n‐3 LCPUFAs. This review provides a comprehensive account of the properties, structures, and major sources of marine PLs, and provides focussed discussion of their relationship to brain health. Epidemiological, laboratory, and clinical studies on n‐3 LCPUFAs enriched PLs using different model systems in relation to brain and mental health that have been published over the past few years are discussed in detail. 相似文献
Dendritic structures in quenched ingots of mercury-cadmium telluride have been investigated by electron microprobe analysis
and metallographic method. It is possible to deduce the movement of the solidification interfaces during the quenching period
from the configuration and distribution of dendritic patterns on crystal slices, and to qualitatively predict the lateral
composition uniformity of the crystal after recrystallization as well. Based on this assessment, a simple criterion for evaluating
the quality of quenched mercury-cadmium telluride ingot is proposed. 相似文献
The action of the dammarane triterpene glycosides Rb1 and Rg1 and their aglycones 20(S) protopanaxatriole and 20(S) protopanaxadiole from Korean ginseng on permeability of bilayer lipid membranes formed of monolayers was studied. RgI, protopanaxatriole and protopanaxadiole in concentrations of 3, 0.5 and 30 micrograms/ml respectively formed single ionic channels in the water phase on the membrane side containing cholesterol. The channel conductivity was 5 to 30 pSm in 1 M KCl. The ionic channels were more selective with respect to K+ as compared to Cl-. Rb1 was also able to increase the conductivity of the lipid membranes. However, no jumps in the current characteristics of the single channels were detected. All the substances in high concentrations on one side of the membrane independently of the cholesterol content induced fluctuation of the high amplitude current (from several tens of pSm to several hundreds of nSm). 相似文献
