Each bat-like nanorod ("nanobat") is composed of a hexagonal head, a continuous neck and a thin handle. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction results reveal the single-crystalline feature and the growing direction along [0001] of the nanobat. The vapor- solid mechanism was found suitable to explain the growth process of the nanobat and a schematic model was proposed in detail based on the experimental results.展开更多

For each sample,water vapor was condensed by liquid nitrogen and was collected in four time intervals. From the analysis of hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions of the water collected at different times, it was discovered that the isotope fractionation of soil water also follows the mode, which is just the same as the evaporative process of free water. The relationship between the stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopes in residual water showed that the simulative evaporation line was close to the global meteoric water line (GMWL) under the equilibrium condition at about 20℃. Comparison of the two types of evaporative processes indicated that the isotope fractionation and evaporation velocity of soil water were only slightly modified by the Van der Waals force.展开更多

When the chamber pressure is lower than pcrit or higher than Pimpe Nm tends to be the maximum or minimum value and remains almost unchanged. However, declines sharply with the increase of the chamber pressure when pcrit<P<Pimpe. A method has been put forward to calculate the pcrit and pimpe of Al evaporation in a Ni-XAI (x=25-50 at. pct) melt. The calculation result shows that the pcrit or pimpe is a second-order function of the molar percentage of Al and the melting temperature.展开更多

Utilizing these activity coefficients and the vapor pressures, the relative evaporation coefficient is used to judge the evaporation tendency of these components. The evaporation tendency among the three components were compared and the result shows that the evaporation tendency is that: AlTi>Nb. Evaporation loss rate increases with the increase of melting temperature and decreases with the increase of chamber pressure. There exists an impeding pressure p impe of Al element evaporation during induction skull melting process of Ti 25Al 25Nb alloy. The impeding pressure can be written as p impe =8.1 p e, where p e represents the equilibrium partial pressure. The calculation of evaporation loss of Al element also showed that when chamber pressure exceeds p impe , the Al volatilization losses could be ignored. In order to prevent the evaporation loss of components, the pressure in the vacuum chamber should not below p impe .展开更多

The model;γ = exp〔〔lnt/2.9206〕1.3〕 shows that the quantity of evaporated water during the drying process is dependent on the drying time, with the evaporating surface being constant. It was found that the validity of the model is rooted on the expression lnγ = (lnt/Logβ)N where both sides of the equation are correspondingly almost equal. The maximum deviation of the model-predicted quantity of evaporated water from the corresponding experimental value is less than 19% which is quite within the acceptable deviation range of experimental results. Water evaporation rate as obtained from experiment and derived model were evaluated to be 0.0536 and 0.0337g mins -1 respectively.展开更多
