Then, based on the competition theory of condensation and percolation, radial segregation due to differences in particle volume and/or density was analyzed. The results show that if either percolation effect induced by volume difference or condensation effect induced by density difference dominates in the active layer of moving bed, separation will occur. Controlling the volume ratio or density ratio of the two types of particles can achieve an equilibrium state between percolation and condensation, and then homogenous mixture can be obtained. When the percolation balances with the condensation, the relationship between volume ratioand density ratiopresents nearly a power function. Scaling up a rotating drum will not affect the mixing degree of the granular bed so long as the volume ratio and density ratio are predefined.展开更多

Both the enrichment efficiency and the separation were found to be strongly dependent on the melt viscosity. A high melt viscosity was beneficial to the enrichment of primary silicon, whereas a low melt viscosity facilitated the separation process. A new enrichment mechanism was proposed in order to clarify the influence of melt viscosity, and an improved process for achieving high-efficiency enrichment of Si crystals via control of the melt viscosity was also proposed. Additionally, the morphology of Si crystals was found to change from spheroidal to plate-like in shape owing to the difference in viscosities in different regions.展开更多

The surface exchange rate of BSCF severely decreases after in situ exposure to CO2, which is ascribed to carbonate formation on the material surface. The detrimental effect of CO2 starts at a low temperature of 375 ℃ and concentration as low as 1%, and becomes more pro- nounced at higher temperatures. Degradation of the surface exchange kinetics is associated with a rapid loss of oxygen permeation performance of BSCF in CO2.展开更多
