Total classes of composition systems of discrete signals in isomorphous Galois fields

It is proposed a rule of total classes of composition systems of discrete frequency signals (CDF-signals) construction in extended Galois fields. It is carried out modeling and research a correlation properties of CDF-signals, and determined their practical attraction.     

An Experimental Investigation into the Feed Rate Capacity of Rotary Valve and Blow Tank Feeders

Industry widely uses rotary valves and blow tanks for the pneumatic conveying of products, each having their pros and cons depending on the specific application. This article shows the differing results obtained when low-velocity conveying a product through a common pipeline using both a drop-through rotary valve and a bottom-discharge blow tank feeder. A number of issues arise in the rotary valve system, the main one being rotary valve air leakage. A blow tank system, on the other hand, does not leak, as it is an enclosed system. The experimental results show dramatic differences in product throughput. Further exploration leads to a novel modification being made to the rotary valve system in an attempt to increase its capacity. The result of this modification shows a slight increase in output tonnage, but still significantly less than that obtained from the blow tank.     

Effect of ultrasonic treatment on photoelectric and luminescent properties of ZnSe crystals

The results of the effect of ultrasonic treatment of ZnSe crystals on the structure of the energy spectrum of electronic states of centers with deep levels forming photoelectric and luminescent properties of this compound are presented. It is for the first time proved experimentally that the climb of edge dislocations under the effect of ultrasound leads to regrouping and generation of defects forming deep levels, which manifest themselves in phenomena of photosensitivity and radiative recombination.     

Electrophoretic deposition of electrolyte materials for solid oxide fuel cells

Electrophoretic deposition of electrolyte materials for solid oxide fuel cells, including La_0.8Sr_0.2Ga_0.875Mg_0.125O_3–x , yttria stabilized zirconia and (Ce_0.8Gd_0.2)O_1.9, was studied under various experimental conditions. The use of phosphate ester as a dispersant and poly (vinyl butyral) as a binder enabled high deposition rate and formation of crack-free, adherent deposits. Electrodeposition rates were quantified in experiments performed at constant current and constant voltage modes from suspensions in ethanol, isopropanol and mixed ethanol—isopropanol solvents. The microstructure of as prepared and sintered deposits was studied by electron microscopy. The bath composition was optimized to enable formation of dense deposits.     

Relaxor Behavior of Ge-Doped TlInS2

The dielectric and pyroelectric properties of Ge-doped (0.1 mol %) TlInS₂ crystals are studied. The results demonstrate that TlInS₂ is a ferroelectric relaxor. The experimental data are used to evaluate, using the Vogel–Fulcher relation, the activation energy (0.045 eV), preexponential factor (f ₀ = 2 × 10¹³ Hz), and the dipole-freezing temperature (T _F = 142 K) and to determine the temperature range of the stable relaxor (nanodomain) state and the temperature of the transition to the ferroelectric (macrodomain) state, accompanied by an anomaly in the temperature-dependent pyroelectric coefficient.     

Purification of Ellagic Acid by UF Membranes

Ellagic acid (2, 3, 7, 8‐tetrahydroxy(1)benzopyrano(5, 4, 3‐cde)(1)benzopyran‐5, 10‐dione) was selected as a model pollutant which is present in the tannic fraction of cork processing wastewater. The ultrafiltration of aqueous ellagic acid solutions through three membranes was studied in tangential UF laboratory equipment. Two of the membranes were polyethersulfone (Biomax10K and Biomax5K, with MWCO of 10000 and 5000 Da, respectively), and the third made of regenerated cellulose (Ultracel5K, with MWCO of 5000 Da). The water hydraulic permeability was evaluated for each membrane. The evolution of the permeate flow rate with processing time was followed, and the influence of the main operating variables (feed flow rate, trans‐membrane pressure and nature of the membranes) on the permeate flux was also established. According to the hypothesis of the film theory, the intrinsic and apparent rejection coefficients, as well as the mass transfer coefficients, were also determined, and the values obtained were discussed as a function of the operating conditions used.
