Book Critical Regimes of Two Phase Flows with a Polydisperse Solid Phase

Download or read book Critical Regimes of Two Phase Flows with a Polydisperse Solid Phase written by Eugene Barsky and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical regimes of two-phase flows with a polydisperse solid phase form the basis of such widespread industrial processes as separation of various powdery materials and minerals dressing. It is impossible to describe such complicated flows analytically. Therefore, this study concentrates on invariants experimentally revealed and theoretically grounded for such flows. This approach can be compared with the situation in gases, where in order to determine principal parameters of their state, one does not need to measure the kinetic energy and velocity of each molecule and find its contribution to the temperature and pressure. These parameters are determined in a simple way for the system on the whole. A novel conception of two-phase flows allowing the formulation of their statistical parameters is physically substantiated. On the basis of the invariants and these parameters, a comprehensive method of estimating and predicting mass transfer in such flows is developed. It is noteworthy that the presented results are mostly phenomenological. Such an approach can be successfully extended to the separation of liquids, gases and isotopes. The book is intended for students and specialists engaged in chemical technology, mineral dressing, ceramics, microelectronics, pharmacology, power generation, thermal engineering and other fields in which flows carrying solid particles are used in the technological process.

Book Gibbs  Entropic Paradox and Problems of Separation Processes

Download or read book Gibbs Entropic Paradox and Problems of Separation Processes written by Eugene Barsky and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-03-22 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gibbs' Entropic Paradox and Problems of Separation Processes reviews the so-called Gibb's Paradox observed during the mixing of two systems. During the last 150 years, many physicists and specialists in thermodynamics, statistical and quantum mechanics been engaged in the solution of the Gibbs paradox. Many books and journal articles have written on this topic, but a widely accepted answer is still lacking. In this book, the author reviews and analyzes all this data. Based on findings, the book formulates a different approach to this paradox and substantiates it on the basis of physical and statistical principles. The book clearly shows that entropy consists of two parts, static and dynamic. Up to now, entropy has been connected only with the process dynamics. However, the Gibbs paradox is caused by the change in the static component of entropy. Finally, the book includes examples of separation processes and how to optimize them in various fields, including biology, cosmology, crystallography and the social sciences. - Provides a precise definition of entropy and allows the formulation of criteria for optimization of separation processes - Explains the role of entropy in many processes, facilitating an in-depth analysis and understanding of complicated systems and processes - Provides solutions to scientific and applied problems in various scientific disciplines related to separation processes - Elucidates entropy's role in many separation systems

Book Monodisperse Highly Ordered and Polydisperse Biobased Solid Foams

Download or read book Monodisperse Highly Ordered and Polydisperse Biobased Solid Foams written by Sébastien Andrieux and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-23 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the synthesis of chitosan-based solid foams using foam templating. Solid foams with pore sizes between a few micrometres and a few millimetres are widely used in a range of established and emerging applications, including filtration, catalysis, sound and thermal insulation, human protection, and tissue engineering. They are lightweight with large surface-to-volume ratios, and have excellent mechanical, acoustic, and thermal properties. However, most foaming processes are extremely complex, and there remains a lack of sound scientific understanding of—and therefore control over—the parameters that determine the properties of the material. One route towards tailor-made solid foams is liquid foam templating, where the liquid foam is generated first (with the desired structure) before being solidified into a solid foam with the desired structure. This book describes how liquid foam templating can be used to synthesise monodisperse solid foams as well as solid foams with a tuneable polydispersity.

Book Geological Melts

Download or read book Geological Melts written by Daniel R. Neuville and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-07-04 with total page 1108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 87 of Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry covers fundamental aspects of the nature of silicate melts and the implications for the systems in which they participate, both technological and natural. The contents of this volume may perhaps best be summarized as structure – properties – dynamics. The volume contains syntheses of short and medium range order, structure-property relationships, and computation-based simulations of melt structure. It continues with analyses of the properties (mechanical, diffusive, thermochemical, redox, nucleation, rheological) of melts. The dynamic behavior of melts in magmatic and volcanic systems, is then treated in the context of their behavior in magma mixing, strain localization, frictional melting, magmatic fragmentation, and hot sintering. Finally, the non-magmatic, extraterrestrial and prehistoric roles of melt and glass are presented in their respective contexts.

Book Computational Models for Polydisperse Particulate and Multiphase Systems

Download or read book Computational Models for Polydisperse Particulate and Multiphase Systems written by Daniele L. Marchisio and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a clear description of the theory of polydisperse multiphase flows, with emphasis on the mesoscale modelling approach and its relationship with microscale and macroscale models, this all-inclusive introduction is ideal whether you are working in industry or academia. Theory is linked to practice through discussions of key real-world cases (particle/droplet/bubble coalescence, break-up, nucleation, advection and diffusion and physical- and phase-space), providing valuable experience in simulating systems that can be applied to your own applications. Practical cases of QMOM, DQMOM, CQMOM, EQMOM and ECQMOM are also discussed and compared, as are realizable finite-volume methods. This provides the tools you need to use quadrature-based moment methods, choose from the many available options, and design high-order numerical methods that guarantee realizable moment sets. In addition to the numerous practical examples, MATLAB® scripts for several algorithms are also provided, so you can apply the methods described to practical problems straight away.
