Active Investigation

The morphology and function of the vestibular sensory organs has been extensively studied during the last decade with the advent of electron microscopy and electrophysiology. The opening of the space age also accelerated active investigation in this area, since this organ is responsible for the sensation of balance and of linear, angular and gravitational acceleration.The vestibular sense organs are formed by the saccule, utricle and three ampullae of the semicircular canals. The maculae (sacculi and utriculi) have otolithic membranes on the top of the sensory epithelia. The otolithic membrane is formed by a layer of thick gelatin and sand-piles of calcium carbonate crystals (Fig.l).

Improvement of  free convection heat transfer from three finned cylinders arranged at a triangle shape fixed between two walls has been investigated in this study. Three mild steel finned cylinders fixed between two walls from Pyrex glass have been used as a test rig. It has been changed the spacing between the cylinders (X/D=1,2,3 & S/D=2,4,6) and the head orientation of a triangle to the top under constant heat flux values (38, 254, 660, 1268) W/m2 and compare with case of three finned cylinders arranged in vertical array in line fixed between two wall. The experiments are carried for Rayleigh number (Ra) from (15x103 to 14 x104 ) and Prandtl  number from (0.706-0.714 ). The results indicated an increase in Nu with increasing Ra for all cylinders. Furthermore,hx and Nu increased proportionally with the increasing of cylinder spacings for all heat fluxes. Also the experimental results show the case of triangle arrangement is improvement the heat transfer more than case of vertical arrangement. Heat transfer dimensionless correlating equation is also proposed.              Nomeclature: Ax: surface area(m2), T∞: surrounding temperature(k), D: the outer diameter of fin (m), Kf: the thermal conductivity for air at film temperature(W/m.k), hx: Local convection heat transfer(W/m2.k),  Gravitational acceleration(m/s2), I: Electric current (Amp), Nu: Nusselt number, Pr: Prandtl number

AbstractMany common techniques for flow measurement, such as Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) or Ultrasonic Doppler Velocimetry (UDV), rely on the presence of reflectors in the fluid. These methods fail to operate when e.g centrifugal or gravitational acceleration leads to a rarefaction of scatterers in the fluid, as for instance in rapidly rotating experiments. In this article we present two low-cost implementations for flow measurement based on the transit time (or Time of Flight) of acoustic waves, that do not require the presence of scatterers in the fluid. We compare our two implementations against UDV in a well controlled experiment with a simple oscillating flow and show we can achieve measurements in the sub-centimeter per second velocity range with an accuracy of $\sim 5-10\%$ ∼ 5 − 10 % . We also perform measurements in a rotating experiment with a complex flow structure from which we extract the mean zonal flow, which is in good agreement with theoretical predictions.

Screen Surface

Vibrating flip-flow screens (VFFS) are widely used to separate high-viscosity and fine materials. The most remarkable characteristic is that the vibration intensity of the screen frame is only 2–3 g (g represents the gravitational acceleration), while the vibration intensity of the screen surface can reach 30–50 g. This effectively solves the problem of the blocking screen aperture in the screening process of moist particles. In this paper, the approximate state of motion of the sieve mat is realized by setting the discrete rigid motion at multiple points on the elastic sieve mat of the VFFS. The effects of surface energy levels between particles separated via screening performance were compared and analyzed. The results show that the flow characteristics of particles have a great influence on the separation performance. For 8 mm particle screening, the particle’s velocity dominates its movement and screening behavior in the range of 0–8 J/m2 surface energy. In the feeding end region (Section 1 and Section 2), with the increase in the surface energy, the particle’s velocity decreases, and the contact time between the particles and the screen surface increases, and so the passage increases. When the surface energy level continues to increase, the particles agglomerate together due to the effect of the cohesive force, and the effect of the particle’s agglomeration is greater than the particle velocity. Due to the agglomeration of particles, the difficulty of particles passing through the screen increases, and the yields of various size fractions in the feeding end decrease to some extent. In the transporting process, the agglomerated particles need to travel a certain distance before depolymerization, and the stronger the adhesive force between particles, the larger the depolymerization distance. Therefore, for the case of higher surface energy, the screening percentage near the discharging end (Section 3 and Section 4) is greater. The above research is helpful to better understand and optimize the screening process of VFFS.
