According to the macroscopic photos and Mori’s microscopic photos of HFC-134a hydrate formation process, the mechanism of gas hydrate formation is analyzed. A random inducement nucleation model is presented to describe the hydrate formation process. The factors affecting the fractal growth dimension in the model, such as step, branch increment and angle, are discussed.展开更多

The mass transfer phenomena between the phase interfaces of water-HCFC141b and water-vapor are also researched. The experimental results show that in the presence of a rotary magnetic field, magnetic fluids can remarkably enhance the heat and mass transfer between phase interfaces and, therefore, improve the performance of crystallization, especially in improving the formation temperature and velocity.展开更多
