The effects of nebulization conditions on the size characteristics of the aqueous aerosol produced have been investigated for a cross-flow nebulizer. It is shown that the nebulizer gas flow rate does not affect the upper limit mean sizes of the aqueous droplets transported from the nebulization chamber but that the mean size of the analyte-containing aerosol itself is affected. Model equations are presented descriptive of the effects of gas flow rate and analyte concentrations on analyte aerosol size characteristics.

This paper describes the results of the first stage of an investigation designed to extend present knowledge of the factors affecting aerosol production, transport, vaporization, and atomization in analytical spectroscopy systems. It focuses on factors controlling aspiration of aqueous solutions. The results demonstrate that the effect of gas flow on the pressure drop induced at the tip of the solution draw tube can be described by a simple linear equation; that the relationship between gas flow rate and solution nebulization rate can also be modelled by a simple equation; and that these relationships are not adequately represented by the Hagen-Poiseulle equation, as is often claimed.

Very low pressure plasma spraying has been attracted attention due to special properties of the expanded plasma jet which may probably deposit specific and unique structure coatings, such as columnar structure coatings. The forming of the coatings is affected by plasma generating and working conditions. These operating parameters such as arc power, plasma gas flow rate, and chamber pressure have influences on pressure, enthalpy and temperature of plasma jet. In this work, an enthalpy probe is applied to measure the enthalpy of argon-hydrogen plasma jet generated at chamber pressure of 3000 Pa and 50Pa. The results showed that the temperature of plasma jet reached to 11000 K at 25 mm from nozzle exit, and then dropped slowly to 7000 K at 400 mm.

Fuel cells have been used as a power source in the space shuttle for decades and are expected to be used in future higher power, larger systems. A new, passive gas/liquid phase separator for use in such large fuel cell space applications has been invented. It is a vortex separator designed to accommodate gas driven two phase flows. The work presented here is a first of a kind study of this newly invented separator examining the minimum inlet gas flow rate necessary for a stable vortex inside the separator as a function of separator size. A dimensional scaling analysis was done to predict this minimum inlet gas flow rate. Experiments were performed on the ground and in conjunction with the NASA microgravity simulating aircraft to validate modeling. The results of the experiments and scaling analysis are compared.

Thermal plasma of 12-phase AC arc was successfully developed and applied in the field of glass in-flight melting, and the arc discharge behavior was characterized by image analysis. The effects of sheath gas flow rate on arc discharge and melting behavior of granulated glass raw material were investigated. Results show that different sheath gas flow rates lead to various arc discharge and high-temperature region. The fluctuation of luminance area ratio and coefficient of variation reflects the change of arc discharge behavior. As the sheath gas flow rate increases, the ratio of luminance area decreases and the center temperature of arc increases. The vitrification degree of glass raw material is mostly dependent on the center temperature of arc, higher center temperature and more vitrification degree.

Multi-flow calibration (MFC) is based on monitoring the analytical signal from a single calibration standard solution at several different nebulization gas flow rates (Q), which normalizes plasma conditions and minimizes matrix effects. In the present study, MFC was evaluated, for the first time, applied to inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to analyze different and complexmatrix samples. Al, As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Pb, and Zn were determined by ICP OES, while As, Cd, Co, Cu, Hg, Mo, Mn, Ni, Se, Sb, Pb, and V were determined by ICP-MS. MFC results were compared with those obtained using external standard calibration (EC) for both techniques and in all cases, MFC showed equal or superior accuracy (recoveries between 80-120%) compared to EC, and lower relative standard deviation (RSDs ≤ 10%). Several tests were also performed using only two nebulization gas flows to build linear models for calibration (called two-flow calibration, TFC) and the accurate results (recoveries ranged from 80 to 110% for ICP OES and from 81 to 102% for ICP-MS) suggests that this strategy can be also applied, resulting in a method with high sample throughput.
