The strategy to calculate local and overall enhancement factors is proposed. Instead of a global grid, the composite overlapping grid is adopted, which simplifies the setup and solution of the three-dimensional model equations. It is found that dispersed particle hold-up, particle size, liquid-solid partition coefficient of transported component, characteristic contact time, and the shortest distance between particles and gas-liquid interface have major influence on absorption enhancement factor. The particle-particle interaction on gas absorption and the lateral diffusion of transported component in liquid film were studied with the multi-particle simulation. The proposed model predicted the experimental data from the literature reasonably well.展开更多

Kossel diffraction method was used to detect the crystal structures. The experiments under the density-matched （g=0） and unmatched （g=1） conditions are compared to examine the influence of gravity on the crystal structures formed by self-assembly of 110 nm （in diameter） polystyrene microspheres. The result shows that the gravity tends to make the lattice constants of colloidal crystals smaller at lower positions, which indicates that the effect of gravity should be taken into account in the study of the colloidal crystals.展开更多

This platform is operated as an accredited test and inspection body according to ISO 17025 and 17020 to grant a high and independently confmned quality standard. The accreditation also ensures the independency of the organization and confidentiality to the individual stakeholders, for example research centers, utilities, components suppliers, engineering companies and vendors. Especially for nuclear power plants, it is very relevant to consider that reliability depends on the integrity of its components during its life time-from design through construction, operation and maintenance. For example, a typical NPP （nuclear power plant） has 1,000 to 2,000 large valves and 7,500 to 12,500 small valves, of which about 200 to 400 are designated Safety Class 1. The qualification of these Safety Class 1 components is relevant for reactor new builds but also for installed plants. This paper explains newly established qualification tasks, the corresponding testing infrastructure, and the state of the art of testing technology. By way of example, the paper describes the program and possible sequence of qualifying NPP safety-related components.展开更多
