Based on the research of acrylonitrile polymerization in the quenching tower, a new quenching process was proposed to avoid the disadvantages of the original process. Two kinds of internals were installed to improve the performance of the quenching tower. Through a series of air-flow and real-flow model experiments, the new quenching process and new design were showed to be successful in enhancing the mass and heat transfer in the vapor-liquid system and decreasing the loss of acrylonitrile.Industrial application showed satisfactory results of decrease of the acrylonitrile loss in the quenching tower by about 4.5% and increase of the acrylonitrile recovery of the whole plant by more than 4%.展开更多

Blends of PP/ATH composite are more fire resistant as compared to pure PP. Percentage proportion of both the constituents in the final composite depends upon the application. Improvement in the fire retardant properties of such composites have been studied and published in literature but effects on mechanical strength have not been addressed. The effect of concentration of ATH on the strength of PP/ATH composite was presented. The tensile, flexural and fracture properties were studied and discussed. Experimental tests, ASTM analytical formulae and finite element approach were used. It has been found that increase in ATH has an inverse effect on the mechanical strength.展开更多

Blockage clearly affects burning rates and heat release rates of fires. This needs to be included when calculating flame heat transfer in fire growth models. An understanding of bttrning of materials in small scale fires is of broad and vital importance for predicting their burning performance in large scale fires. The blockage phenomenon was clearly observed and quantitatively measured in experiments that took advantage of the unique capability of the Fire Propagation Apparatus （FPA） of being able to vary the ambient oxygen concentrations. An indirect measurement approach was established which provides an experimental understanding of the concept of the blockage. The measurements were further explained by a one-dimensional steady-state model of a diffusion flame, which focuses on the radiant absorption and emission by the gas-soot mixture of flames. The theoretical model provides a greater understanding of the fundamental knowledge of the blockage. The overall heat transfer blockage factor can be up to 0.3 -0.4 for PMMA and POM. The factor and its components are nearly independent of the external radiation, but increase as the ambient oxygen concentration rises. A comparison between experimental data and model prediction shows a good agreement.展开更多

Igniter is put on the upper side of the combustion chamber In concentration gradient experiment, fixture was ignited from lean side. An experimental study was conducted in a combustion chamber. The combustion chamber has glass windows for optical measurements at any side. For the measurement of distribution of fuel concentration, infrared absorption method using 3.39μm He-Ne laser was used, and for the observation of propagating flame, Schlieren method was employed. As a measurement result of flame propagation velocity and flammable limit, for a mixture of an identical local equivalence ratio, flame propagation velocity in concentration gradient is faster than that in homogeneous mixture, and rich flammable limit in concentration gradient shows a tendency to be higher than that in homogeneous mixture.展开更多
