Droplet Evaporation on a Hydrophilic Mesh Considering Their Sunken Shapes in Holes

The evolution of droplet shapes on a hydrophilic copper mesh was studied by using high-speed microscopic imaging technology. When a water droplet wets a hydrophilic mesh, the liquid-vapor interface initially adopts a convex shape, named as the “first darkness”. Then, as the water evaporates, the liquid-vapor interface flattens, and then it gradually adopts a concave shape; meanwhile, a “second darkness” forms. Taking the shapes of droplets sunken in holes into consideration, the quantitative liquid-vapor interface area was acquired. The evaporation coefficient becomes lower and more reasonable when considering the area increase due to the pentahedron sunken liquid in the holes. A speculation was employed to understand the observed evaporation behavior and the overprediction of the evaporation coefficient.

Microstructure and characterization of Ag1−xLixNbO3 ceramics

Silver–lithium niobate, Ag_1−xLi_xNbO₃, is a promising candidate for lead-free piezoelectrics. Ceramic samples for x equal 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.08 and 0.1 were synthesized by solid state reaction. Room temperature X-ray studies indicate that all samples consist mainly of perovskite phase. Only small amounts of secondary phases, namely Ag₂Nb₄O₁₁, Ag and LiNbO₃, appear. For x≈0.06 the orthorhombic–rhombohedral morphotropic phase boundary is observed. Excellent piezoelectric properties, recently reported for x>0.1, may be the result of proximity of morphotropic phase boundary. Scanning electron microscopy and secondary ion mass spectroscopy investigations suggest that the secondary phases occur chiefly at the grain boundaries. Dielectric measurements, carried out in a wide temperature range, revealed that Ag_1−xLi_xNbO₃, for x≤0.05, undergoes the same complex sequence of phase transitions as AgNbO₃. On the other hand, for x>0.06, the temperature dependence of dielectric permittivity exhibits only two maxima, related to transitions from the ferroelectric R phase to the antiferroelectric M phase and followed by the paraelectric O phase. The dielectric results obtained confirm the existence of the morphotropic phase boundary.

A numerical study of stir mixing of liquids with particle method

The process of stir mixing of two viscous liquids is simulated using the moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method. A mixing rate is defined within the particle method to characterize the level of mixing, as the number, position, period, and rotating speed of the stirring stick(s) and liquid viscosity are changed. The motions of liquid particles are tracked to reveal the flow field and mixing mechanisms. The variation of the mixing rate shows that the mixing rate is higher when the sticks are rotating monotonically at high speed, and an optimum position of the stick can be identified. The mixing rate does not enhance significantly when three or more sticks are employed, and the liquid viscosity has minor influences on the mixing rate. These results give useful qualitative suggestions on controlling the mixing rate during chemical reactions.     

Direct measurement of mass transfer around a single bubble by micro-PLIFI

In this paper, an original direct and non-intrusive technique using Planar Laser Induced Florescence with Inhibition (PLIFI) is proposed to quantify the local mass transfer around a single spherical bubble rising in a quiescent liquid. The new set-up tracks the mass transferred in the bubble wake for a plane perpendicular to the bubble trajectory instead of a parallel plane as in previous works, thus avoiding optical reflection problems. A spherical bubble is formed in a glass column containing fluorescent dye. A camera with a microscopic lens is placed underneath the column to record cross-sections of the transferred oxygen. A high-speed camera is located far from the column to simultaneously record the bubble position, size, shape and velocity. The dissolved gas inhibits the fluorescence so that oxygen concentration fields can be measured. From this, a calculation method is developed to determine mass transfer on the micro-scale. Experimental results are compared to the Sherwood numbers calculated from the Frössling and Higbie models used for fully contaminated and clean spherical bubbles, respectively. Results show that all experimental Sherwood numbers occur between the two models, which gives credence to the measurements. The new technique is then developed for bubble diameters ranging from 0.7 to 2 mm in six hydrodynamic conditions (1<Re<10², 10²<Sc<10⁶).     

Mathematical modeling of reverse osmosis systems

The present investigation pertains to modeling of seawater desalination system. A simulation model was developed and verified for a small-scale reverse osmosis system. The proposed model combines material balances on the feed tank, membrane module andproduct tank with membrane mass transfer models. Finally a comprehensive simulation model has been developed incorporating the effect of mass transfer inhibition The model is non-linear differential equation representing the feed concentration as a function of operating time and space. The solution of the simultaneous differential equations was obtained using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method, due to self starting and stability. The model was verified using the experimental data from the literature [17,24]. Parameter sensitivity was carried out to select the proper step size. The simulation was run for over 1000 11 enabling a prediction of operational performance at high overall system recoveries.

Process intensification in vapor–liquid mass transfer: The state-of-the-art

The concept of process intensification(PI) has absorbed diverse definitions and stays true to the mission—"do more with less", which is an approach purposed by chemical engineers to solve the global energy environment problems. To date, the focus of PI has been on processes mainly involving vapor/liquid systems. Based on the fundamental principles of vapor–liquid mass transfer process like distillation and absorption, there are three strategies to intensify interphase mass transfer: enhancing the overall driving force, improving the mass transfer coefficient and enlarging the vapor–liquid interfacial area. More specifically, this article herein provides an overview of various technologies to strengthen the vapor–liquid mass transfer, including application of external fields, addition of third substances, micro-chemical technology and usage of solid foam, with the objective to contribute to the future developments and potential applications of PI in scientific research and industrial sectors.
