NONISOTHERMAL FLOW OF A REACTIVE FLUID WITH SIMULTANEOUS IMPREGNATION OF A POROUS LAYER

Consideration is given to the nonisothermal filling of a plane cavity with a Newtonian chemically reactive fluid with simultaneous impregnation of a porous layer. Flow in the plane cavity is described by noninertial Navier–Stokes equations, and in the porous layer, by the Darcy equation; fl ow in the region adjacent to the boundary between the fluid and the porous layer is defi ned using the Brinkman equation. The viscosity is taken to be dependent on temperature and on the extent to which the chemical reaction proceeds. A single-temperature model is used as the energy equation. Temperature fi elds in the region of a channel and in the porous layer are interrelated by conjugate fourth-kind boundary conditions. An example of determining the maximum allowable molding time is shown.

CRITERION OF OCCURRENCE OF FILTRATION CONVECTION OF A MIXTURE WITH ACCOUNT OF EQUILIBRIUM AND NONEQUILIBRIUM ADSORPTION

Convective stability of a binary mixture in a porous medium has been studied with account taken of equilibrium and nonequilibrium adsorption.

FRONTAL REGIME OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN A GEOTHERMAL BED

Based on an earlier proposed mathematical model, the conditions for the existence of a frontal regime of steam extraction from a high-temperature bed have been derived. It is shown that unlike the familiar one-dimensional case, in the radial-symmetrical model considered the radius of the region occupied by steam tends to a limiting value, that is, the front of boiling that separates the regions of water and steam practically comes to a stop after a time. A formula has been derived pointing clearly to the dependence of the indicated limiting value of the front radius on the water and steam parameters as well as on the characteristics of the geothermal bed. It is shown that for the steam to occupy a considerable region around the well when the bed is in service, it is necessary that the initial state of water be close to that of steam generation. Otherwise the front of boiling in the considered regime of heat and mass transfer extends from the well only a little.

EVAPORATION AND CONDENSATION OF MOISTURE IN A MOLE-PLOWED SOIL

Consideration is given to temperature waves, traveling in a soil from its surface, with account for phase transitions of moisture and for the influence exerted by mole passages made by a special technology. It is pointed out that evaporation and condensation, rather than a fl ux of soil air, introduce noticeable corrections into the distribution of the soil layer temperature. An analysis of the problem and evaluating solutions are given and a technique of calculation of the moisture condensed in mole passages and in the rooty layer of soil is suggested. Weather data for Yuzhno-Sukhokumsk are used. The results are applicable to the climatic conditions of the Prikaspiiskaya (NearCaspian) semidesert.

MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF A THERMOSTATING COATING WITH A THERMOELECTRIC MODULE

On the basis of a variational formulation of the problem of stationary heat conduction in a heterogeneous solid, a mathematical model of a fragment of a fl at heat-insulating layer containing a thermoelectric module has been constructed. This model has been used to establish conditions under which, when fulfi lled, the heat-insulating layer can serve as a thermostating coating for an object with a given fi xed temperature under convective-radiative heat exchange on the outer surface of the fragment under consideration. The results of the qualitative analysis of the proposed model are presented.

INFLUENCE OF MICROWAVES ON THE THERMAL CONDITIONS OF A "POLYMER–SEMICONDUCTOR–COMPOSITE" SYSTEM

A numerical analysis of the influence of microwaves on the thermal conditions of elements of electronic equipment (EE) has been carried out. Investigations have shown that the temperature fi eld of the ″polymer–semiconductor– composite″ system under the action of microwaves is nonuniform. It has been established that under rather typical operating conditions with increasing electric fi eld intensity there is a considerable increase (from 362 to 387 K) in the maximum temperature of the modeled object. Such a strong infl uence of microwaves on the thermal conditions of the ″polymer–semiconductor–composite″ system is comparable to the increase in the ambient temperature by 20 K or the increase in the heat release of the internal source by 30%.

METHOD OF BOUNDARY CHARACTERISTICS

A new integral method based on the system of identical equalities of 2n-multiple integrals of the desired temperature function and the corresponding boundary characteristics is presented. This method was used for the approximate solution of problems of a semi-bounded space and a lengthy plate with fi rst-kind boundary conditions. The results obtained show that the integral method of boundary characteristics surpasses the analogous integral methods by several orders of magnitude in accuracy and convergence of approximate solutions. The solutions constructed with this method are exact in essence because the errors in determining parameters in a wide range of their values comprise hundredths and ten-thousands of a percent

ENGINEERING APPROACH TO THE DETERMINATION OF THE RADIATION FIELD OF A POLYETHYLENETEREPHTHALATE (PET) MEDIUM UNDER RADIANT HEATING

An engineering approach to the determination of the radiation fi eld of the PET medium under radiant heating is proposed. Instead of the reverse counting procedure for determining the radiation intensity in the negative direction, we make a correction that has a superposition character and can be determined through the refl ection coeffi cient at the boundary and the already determined radiation fi eld in the positive direction inverted in the coordinate direction. The structure of the given approach provides a reasonable balance between the adequacy of calculations and the computational resource consumption and permits estimating quickly the necessary machine time expenditures.

SIMULATION OF THE KINETICS OF GROWTH OF IRON NANOPARTICLES IN THE PROCESS OF CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION OF HYDROCARBONS WITH INJECTION OF FERROCENE FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF CARBON-NANOTUBE ARRAYS

A kinetic model of growth of iron nanoparticles in the process of synthesis of carbon-nanotube arrays in an injectiontype reactor of chemical vapor deposition, in which iron nanoparticles are formed as a result of the coalescence of iron atoms representing products of the thermal decomposition of a mixture of ferrocene with xylene, has been developed. It is shown that the formation of iron nanoparticles in the indicated reactor is very nonequilibrium in character. The parametric dependences of the monodisperse distributions of iron nanoparticles by their diameter, number density, and volume fraction on the fl ow rate of nitrogen, the temperature of the high-temperature region in the reactor, and the concentration of ferrocene in xylene have been obtained. The calculations performed have shown that the diameter of the iron nanoparticles formed increases monotonically with increase in the temperature of the chemical vapor deposition of hydrocarbons and the concentration of ferrocene in xylene and, quite the reverse, decreases monotonically with increase in the rate of the nitrogen fl ow. The calculated and experimental diameters of the iron nanoparticles formed at mass fractions of ferrocene in xylene of 0.5–10% were compared. The model proposed can be used for calculating the synthesis of carbon nanotubes in a chemical-vapor-deposition reactor of the injection type.

SYNTHESIS OF CARBON NANOSTRUCTURES ON NICKEL NANOPOWDERS PRODUCED BY THE METHOD OF ELECTRIC EXPLOSION OF CONDUCTORS

The authors present the results of experiments on the synthesis of carbon nanostructures by the method of thermal chemical gas-phase deposition with the use of nickel nanopowders produced by the method of electric explosion of conductors and utilized as the catalysts. To study the process of origination and growth of individual carbon nanostructures, the authors conducted experiments not only on nanopowders, but also on separated clusters. Experiments were conducted at different temperatures (200–700oC) and pressures (100–400 mbar) to determine optimum conditions and the lower temperature boundary for carbon-nanostructure synthesis. The experiments have shown that the lower boundary of synthesis for nanopowders is a temperature of 325oC. For the separated powders, as for the nanopowders, stable growth of carbon nanostructures was observed at 350oC, but at pressures lower than 300 mbar. Unlike the carbon nanostructures produced on nanopowders, carbon nanostructures on separated powders exhibit a strong dependence of their origination and growth on temperature and pressure. Results of the Raman spectroscopy and of the x-ray structural analysis have shown that carbon nanostructures grown at 325oC and 300 mbar have the highest purity.

SIMULATION OF NON-NEWTONIAN EMULSION FLOWS IN MICROCHANNELS

Simulation of emulsion flows in differently shaped microchannels to reproduce the choking of such flows as a result of the effect of dynamic blocking has been made. A model of a highly concentrated emulsion as a structure of tightly packed deformed droplets surrounded by elastic shells is considered. The motion of liquid was determined by the method of the lattice Boltzmann equations together with the immersed boundary method. The infl uence of the nonNewtonian properties and of elastic turbulence of the indicated emulsion, as well as of the elasticity of the shells of its droplets and of the interaction of these shells on the emulsion motion in a microchannel, has been investigated. It is shown that the flow of this emulsion can be slowed down substantially only due to the mutual attraction of the shells of its droplets.

HYDRODYNAMIC ASPECTS OF THE TOMS EFFECT

The physicomathematical model of migration of polymers in a liquid turbulent fl ow in a pipe is based on a comparison of forces transverse to the motion of the mainstream fl ow: the Saffman, Magnus, and turbophoresis forces. It has been shown that the polymer particles are grouped near a certain boundary within the limits of the boundary layer. On this basis, the authors have made assumptions on the mechanism of suppression of turbulent pulsations and decrease in the viscous friction near the wall, which makes up the Toms effect. The proposed model satisfi es, at least, qualitatively, various actually observed manifestations of the effect.

TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYER ON A FINELY PERFORATED SURFACE UNDER CONDITIONS OF AIR INJECTION AT THE EXPENSE OF EXTERNAL FLOW RESOURCES

The characteristics of an incompressible turbulent boundary layer on a fl at plate with air blown in though a fi nely perforated surface from an external confi ned fl ow through an input device, located on the "idle" side of the plate, have been investigated experimentally and numerically. A stable decrease in the local values of the coeffi cient of surface friction along the plate length that attains 85% at the end of the perforated portion is shown. The experimental and calculated data obtained point to the possibility of modeling, under earth conditions, the process of controlling a turbulent boundary layer with air injection by using the resources of an external confi ned fl ow.

INFLUENCE OF THE GEOMETRIC PARAMETER ON THE REGIMES OF NATURAL CONVECTION AND THERMAL SURFACE RADIATION IN A CLOSED PARALLELEPIPED

We have performed a numerical analysis of the stationary regimes of thermogravitational convection and thermal surface radiation in a closed differentially heated parallelepiped. The mathematical model formulated in dimensionless natural velocity–pressure–temperature variables was realized numerically in the control volume approach. Analysis of the radiative heat exchange was carried out on the basis of the surface radiation approach with the use of the balance method in the Polyak variant. We have obtained three-dimensional temperature and velocity fi elds, as well as dependences for the mean Nusselt number refl ecting the infl uence of the geometric parameter, the Rayleigh number, and the reduced emissive factor of the walls on the fl ow structure and the heat transfer.

ELECTROMAGNETIC EFFECTS ON WAVE PROPAGATION IN AN ISOTROPIC MICROPOLAR PLATE

The generalized theory of thermoelasticity is applied to study the propagation of plane harmonic waves in an infi nitely long, isotropic, micropolar plate in the presence of a uniform magnetic fi eld. The present analysis also includes the thermal relaxation time, electric displacement current, and the coupling of heat transfer and microrotation of the material. To determine the effect of the presence of thermal as well as magnetic fi elds on the phase velocity, two potential functions are used, and more general dispersive relations are obtained for symmetric and antisymmetric modes. The results for the cases of coupled thermoelasticity, magnetoelasticity, micropolar thermoelasticity, and classical micropolar elasticity as special cases are derived. The changes in the phase velocity and attenuation coeffi cient with the wave number are shown graphically.

ANALYTICAL ESTIMATION OF VELOCITY AND TEMPERATURE FIELDS IN A CIRCULAR PIPE ON THE BASIS OF STOCHASTIC EQUATIONS AND EQUIVALENCE OF MEASURES

A stream of nonisothermalNewtonian liquid in a circular smooth pipe is considered on the basis of systems of stochastic equations and of the physical law of equivalence of measures between laminar and turbulent motions. Analytical expressions were previously obtained for isothermal fl ows for the fi rst and second critical Reynolds numbers, critical point, indices of velocity profi les, second-order correlation moments, correlation functions, and spectral functions depending on the parameters of initial turbulence. Analytical expressions, obtained with the use of the earlier derived formulas for the critical Reynolds numbers and the critical points, are presented for the indices of velocity and temperature profi les as functions of the initial turbulence parameters as well as of the Eckert and Prandtl numbers.
