Analytical and experimental studies have been done to determine the shape of a vertical, axisymmetric, annular liquid jet. From a balance of the surface, pressure, gravity, and inertia forces, a nonlinear, second-order, ordinary differential equation is obtained for the shape of the annular jet. This equation is solved numerically by the Runge-Kutta-Nystro¨m method. An annular jet either converges (closes), diverges, or maintains (theoretically) its original radius depending upon the magnitude of the difference between the inside and outside pressure. This corresponds to, in terms of a dimensionless pressure p, whether p is less than, greater than, or equal to 2. An experiment has been performed to verify the analytical solution. The jet velocity, inside pressure and other parameters have been varied to obtain different shapes of the jet, both closing and diverging. Good agreement with the analytical prediction is found.

An analytical investigation of the stability of a viscous, annular liquid jet moving in an inviscid medium is presented. This problem is a generalization of the well-known cases of a round cylindrical jet (obtained here when the ratio of internal to external radii tends to zero) and the flat thin liquid sheet (when the ratio above tends to unity). A critical ‘penetration’ thickness T is defined. When the annulus thickness is greater than T, the annular jet behaves like a full liquid jet; the only unstable perturbations are axisymmetric, and their growth rate is independent of thickness. When the annulus thickness is less than T, the jet behaves like a two-dimensional liquid sheet; the most unstable perturbations are antisymmetric and their growth rate increases as the jet thickness decreases. Therefore, an annular liquid jet with a sufficiently small ring thickness will disintegrate into spherical shells much faster than a full liquid jet disintegrates into drops, in accordance with existing experimental data. Non-dimensional expressions for the penetration thickness are given for both viscous and inviscid jets.

Experimental studies of hot water depressurization show that the pressure in a vessel, just after it is opened, drops much lower than the pressure of saturation but the liquid does not boil uniformly throughout the vessel. Essentially, liquid boiling begins only on the arrival of a ‘slow wave’ of rarefaction which moves at a low speed of approximately 10 m s−1 from the open end deep into the vessel.To explain this phenomenon we suggest a model that takes into account the difference in phase velocities. Although this difference in bubble flows is only about 1 m s−1 it proves to be sufficient to cause bubble breakup. Using this model we obtained the ‘slow wave of boiling’ in a numerical experiment that was in good agreement with the physical experiment.

<p>In the present work, a computational study is performed in order to clarify the possible magnetic nature of gold. For such purpose, gas phase Au<sub>2</sub> (zero charge) is modelled, in order to calculate its gas phase formation enthalpy. The calculated values were compared with the experimental value obtained by means of Knudsen effusion mass spectrometric studies [5]. Based on the obtained formation enthalpy values for Au<sub>2</sub>, the compound with two unpaired electrons is the most probable one. The calculated ionization energy of modelled Au<sub>2</sub> with two unpaired electrons is 8.94 eV and with zero unpaired electrons, 11.42 eV. The difference (11.42-8.94 = 2.48 eV = 239.29 kJmol<sup>-1</sup>), is in very good agreement with the experimental value of 226.2 ± 0.5 kJmol<sup>-1</sup> to the Au-Au bond<sup>7</sup>. So, as expected, in the specie with none unpaired electrons, the two 6s<sup>1</sup> (one of each gold atom) are paired, forming a chemical bond with bond order 1. On the other hand, in Au<sub>2</sub> with two unpaired electrons, the s-d hybridization prevails, because the relativistic contributions. A molecular orbital energy diagram for gas phase Au<sub>2</sub> is proposed, explaining its paramagnetism (and, by extension, the paramagnetism of gold clusters and nanoparticles).</p>

The effects of leakage and blockage on the acoustic performance of particle filters have been examined by using one-dimensional acoustic analysis and experimental methods. First, the transfer matrix of a filter system connected to inlet and outlet pipes with conical sections is measured using a two-load method. Then, the transfer matrix of a particle filter only is extracted from the experiments by applying inverse matrices of the conical sections. In the analytical approaches, the one-dimensional acoustic model for the leakage between the filter and the housing is developed. The predicted transmission loss shows a good agreement with the experimental results. Compared to the baseline, the leakage between the filter and housing increases transmission loss at a certain frequency and its harmonics. In addition, the transmission loss for the system with a partially blocked filter is measured. The blockage of the filter also increases the transmission loss at higher frequencies. For the simplicity of experiments to identify the leakage and blockage, the reflection coefficients at the inlet of the filter system have been measured using two different downstream conditions: open pipe and highly absorptive terminations. The experiments show that with highly absorptive terminations, it is easier to see the difference between the baseline and the defects.

The densification of water-saturated firn, which had formed just above the firn-ice transition in the wet-snow zone of temperate glaciers, was investigated by compression tests under pressures ranging from 0.036 to 0.173 MPa, with special reference to the relationship between densification rate, time and pressure. At each test, the logarithm of the densification rate was proportional to the logarithm of the time, and its proportionality constant increased exponentially with increasing pressure. The time necessary for ice formation in the firn aquifer was calculated using the empirical formula obtained from the tests. Consequently, the necessary time decreased exponentially as the pressure increased, which shows that the transformation from firn in ice can be completed within the period when the firn aquifer exists, if the overburden pressure acting on the water-saturated firn is above 0.12–0.14 MPa. This critical value of pressure was in good agreement with the overburden pressure obtained from depth–density curves of temperate glaciers. It was concluded that the depth of firn–ice transition was self-balanced by the overburden pressure to result in the concentration between 20 and 30 m.

Changing the morphology of noble metal nanoparticles and polarization dependence of nanoparticles with different morphologies is an important part of further research on surface plasma enhancement. Therefore, we used the method based on Matlab simulation to provide a simple and effective method for preparing the morphologies of Au nanoparticles with different morphologies, and prepared the structure of Au nanoparticles with good uniformity and different morphologies by oblique angle deposition (OAD) technology. The change of the surface morphology of nanoparticles from spherical to square to diamond can be effectively controlled by changing the deposition angle. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method was used to simulate the electromagnetic fields of Au nanoparticles with different morphologies to explore the polarization dependence of nanoparticles with different shapes, which was in good agreement with Raman spectrum.

The resistance of Al-21%Cu alloy under no magnetic field, DC magnetic field and AC magnetic field from liquid to solid was measured by a four-probe method. The difference of resistance versus temperature curves (R-T curves) was analyzed. It is found that the R-T curves of Al-21%Cu alloy are monotone decreasing and have two obvious turning points. Under DC magnetic field, the liquidus and solidus temperatures of the alloy both decrease, while under AC magnetic field, the liquidus and solidus temperatures both increase. There is a good agreement between the microstructure of quenching sample and R-T curves. The mechanism of the effect of magnetic fields was discussed.

The local atomic structures around the Zr atom of pure (undoped) ZrO2nanopowders with different average crystallite sizes, ranging from 7 to 40 nm, have been investigated. The nanopowders were synthesized by different wet-chemical routes, but all exhibit the high-temperature tetragonal phase stabilized at room temperature, as established by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction. The extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) technique was applied to analyze the local structure around the Zr atoms. Several authors have studied this system using the EXAFS technique without obtaining a good agreement between crystallographic and EXAFS data. In this work, it is shown that the local structure of ZrO2nanopowders can be described by a model consisting of two oxygen subshells (4 + 4 atoms) with different Zr—O distances, in agreement with those independently determined by X-ray diffraction. However, the EXAFS study shows that the second oxygen subshell exhibits a Debye–Waller (DW) parameter much higher than that of the first oxygen subshell, a result that cannot be explained by the crystallographic model accepted for the tetragonal phase of zirconia-based materials. However, as proposed by other authors, the difference in the DW parameters between the two oxygen subshells around the Zr atoms can be explained by the existence of oxygen displacements perpendicular to thezdirection; these mainly affect the second oxygen subshell because of the directional character of the EXAFS DW parameter, in contradiction to the crystallographic value. It is also established that this model is similar to another model having three oxygen subshells, with a 4 + 2 + 2 distribution of atoms, with only one DW parameter for all oxygen subshells. Both models are in good agreement with the crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction experiments.

The rotational potential functions for the borohydride ion embedded in potassium and rubidium halides are derived from atom–atom potentials of the Buckingham (exp-6) type. The librational frequencies computed from the potential functions are in good agreement with the observed frequencies. The potential functions for rubidium and potassium borohydrides derived from the atom–atom potentials yield librational frequencies that are about 10% higher than the observed values. Since the entropy of transition for potassium and rubidium borohydrides is less than expected, there is a possibility that there is some ordering of the borohydride ions above the transition temperature. An experimental method is presented for studying the ordering of the borohydride ions based on the difference in the ground level degeneracy of a tetrahedral ion in ordered and disordered states.
