Kinetics analysis of decomposition of vanadium slag by KOH sub-molten salt method

A novel process was developed for the decomposition of vanadium slag using KOH sub-molten salt under ambient pressure, and the effects of reaction temperature, alkali-to-ore mass ratios, particle size, and stirring speed on vanadium and chromium extraction were studied. The results suggest that the reaction temperature and KOH-to-ore mass ratio are more influential factors for the extraction of vanadium and chromium. Under the optimal reaction conditions （temperature 180 °C, initial KOH-to-ore mass ratio 4：1, stirring speed 700 r/min, gas flow 1 L/min, and reaction time 300 min）, vanadium and chromium extraction rates can reach up to 95% and 90%, respectively. Kinetics analysis results show that the decomposing process of vanadium slag in KOH sub-molten salt can be well interpreted by the shrinking core model under internal diffusion control. The apparent activation energies for vanadium and chromium are 40.54 and 50.27 kJ/mol, respectively.

Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of Abietic Acid in Static Air

The thermal decomposition of abietic acid in air was investigated under non-isothermal condition using thermogravimetric analysis-differential thermal analysis （TGA-DTA） technique with heating rates of 5, 10, 15 and 25 K.min-~. The non-isothermal kinetic parameters were obtained via the analysis of the thermogravimetric and differential thermogravimetric （TG-DTG） curves by using Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method and Kissinger method. The thermal decomposition mechanism of abietic acid was studied with four integral methods （Satava-Sestak, MacCallum-Tanner, ordinary integral and Agrawal）. The results show that the thermal decomposition mechanism is nu- cleation and growth, and the mechanism function is Avrami-Erofeev equation with n equates 1/2. The activation energy and the pre-exponential factor are 64.04 kJ.mol^-1 and 5.89×10^5 s^-1, respectively.

Interaction of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide with drug in aqueous/electrolyte solution:A combined conductometric and molecular dynamics method study

Interaction between beta-lactum antibiotic drug ciprofloxacin hydrochloride(CFH)and cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB)was performed conductometrically in aqueous as well as in the occurrence of different salts(NaCl,KCl as well as NH_4Cl)over the temperature range of 298.15–323.15 K at the regular interval of 5 K.CFH drug has been suggested for the treatment of bacterial infections such as urinary tract infections and acute sinusitis.A clear critical micelle concentration(CMC)was obtained for pure CTAB as well as(CFH+CTAB)mixed systems.The decrease in CMC values of CTAB caused by the addition of CFH reveals the existence of the interaction between the components and therefore it is the indication of micelle formation at lower concentration of CTAB and their CMC values further decrease in attendance of salts.A nonlinear behavior in the CMC versus T plot was observed in all the cases.The ΔG_m^0 values are found to be negative in present study systems demonstrated the stability of the solution.The values of ΔH_m^0 and ΔS_m^0 reveal the existence of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions between CFH and CTAB.The thermodynamic properties of transfer for the micellization were also evaluated and discussed in detail.Molecular dynamic simulation disclosed that environment of water and salts have impact on the hydrophobic interaction between CFH and CTAB.In water and salts,CTAB adopts spherical micelle in which charged hydrophilic groups are interacted with waters whereas hydrophobic tails form the core of the micelle.This hydrophobic core region is highly conserved and protected.In addition,micelle formation is more favorable in aqueous Na Cl solution than other solutions.

A DYNAMICAL INTERPRETATION OF THE WIND FIELD IN TROPICAL CYCLONES

Based on the primitive equations in polar coordinates and with the supposition that parcel velocity in tropical cyclones is in linear variation and that the distribution of surface pressure agrees with the Fujita formula, a set of equations are derived, which describe the impact of perturbations of central pressure, position of tropical cyclones, direction and velocity of movement of tropical cyclones on the wind field. It is proved that the second order approximation of the kinetic energy of tropical cyclones can be described by the equations under linear approximation. Typhoon Wipha (2007) is selected to verify the above interpretation method, and the results show that the interpretation method of the wind field could give very good results before the landfall of tropical cyclones, while making no apparent improvement after the landfall. The dynamical interpretation method in this paper is applicable to improving the forecasts of the wind field of tropical cyclones close to the coast.

Reaction pathway and kinetics of CdO nanoparticles prepared from CdCO_3 precursor using thermal decomposition method

The non-isothermal kinetics of CdO nanoparticles prepared from CdCO3 precursor using thermal decomposition method was investigated. A model-fitting Malek approach and a model-free advanced isoconversional method of Vyazovkin were applied to the analysis of the DSC and TGA data. The results showed that CdO nanoparticles prepared from CdCO3 followed an autocatalytic reaction. Sestak–Berggren model could favorably describe the studied reaction process. Moreover, the apparent activation energy of CdCO3 decomposition was calculated to be (119.19±9.97) kJ/mol and the explicit rate equation form of CdCO3 decomposition was established.

A reduced-order-model-based multiple-in multiple-out gust alleviation control law design method in transonic flow

Gust alleviation is very important to a large flexible aircraft.A nonlinear low-order aerodynamic state space model is required to model the nonlinear aeroelastic responses due to gust.Based on the proper orthogonal decomposition method,a reduced order modeling of gust loads was proposed.And then the open-loop and closed-loop reduced order state space model for the transonic aeroelastic system was developed.The static output feed back control scheme was used to design a simple multiple-in multiple-out(MIMO)gust alleviation control law.The control law was demonstrated with the Goland+wing model with four control surfaces.The simulation results of different discrete gusts show the capability and good performance of the designed MIMO controller in transonic gust alleviation.

Effects of heat transfer on the peristaltic MHD flow of a Bingham fluid through a porous medium in a channel

In this paper, we study the effects of heat transfer on the peristaltic magneto- hydrodynamic （MHD） flow of a Bingham fluid through a porous medium in a channel. Long wavelength approximation （that is, the wavelength of the peristaltic wave is large in comparison with the radius of the channel） and low Reynolds number are used to linearize the governing equations. The velocity field for the model of interest is solved by Adomian decomposition method. The expressions for pressure rise, flow rate and frictional force are obtained. The effect of magnetic field, Darcy number, yield stress, amplitude ratio and the temperature on the axial pressure gradient, pumping charac- teristics and frictional force are discussed through graphs.
