Many high-dimensional coordination complexes have been designed and prepared through molecular self-assembly processes. The open metal organic framework can be produced via two kinds of interactions, i. e. , coordinate covalent bonds and weaker intermolecular forces. For this reason, the most efficient means to synthesize these compounds is to establish possible connections among different units.展开更多

Two stabilizer disc burners tapered at 30° and 60° and another frustum cone of 60°/30° inclination angle were employed all having the same diameter of 80 (mm) acting as flame holders. The measured radial mean temperature profiles of the developed stabilized flames at different normalized axial distances (x/dj) were considered as the model example of the physical process. The RSM and ANN methods analyze the effect of the two operating parameters namely (r), the radial distance from the center line of the flame, and (x/dj) on the measured temperature of the flames, to find the predicted maximum temperature and the corresponding process variables.
