Abstract The paper presents the summary of research on polymer melt particle motion trajectories in a disc zone of a screw-disk extruder. We analysed two models of its structure, different in levels of taken simplifications. The analysis includes computer simulations of material particle flow and results of experimental tests to determine the properties of the resultant extrudate. Analysis of the results shows that the motion of melt in the disk zone of a screw-disk extruder is a superposition of pressure and dragged streams. The observed trajectories of polymer particles and relations of mechanical properties and elongation of the molecular chain proved the presence of a stretching effect on polymer molecular chains.

Mercury discharge lamps are often used because of their high efficiency; however, the usage of mercury lamps will be restricted or forbidden for safety and environmental purposes. Finding alternative solutions to suppress mercury is of major interest. The aim of this work is to increase the luminous efficacy of a commercial-free mercury flat dielectric barrier discharge lamp (Planilum, St Gobain) in order to reach the necessary conditions for the lamp to be used as a daily lighting source. The lamp is made of two glass plates separated by a gap of 2 mm. The gap is filled by a neon xenon mixture. The external electrodes made of transparent ITO (indium tin oxide) are deposited on the lamp glass plates. The electrical signal applied to the electrodes generates a UV-emitting plasma inside the gap. Phosphors deposited on the glass allow the production of visible light. The original electrode geometry is plane-to-plane; this induces filamentary discharges. We show that changing the plane-to-plane geometry to a coplanar geometry allows the plasma to spread all over the electrode surface, and we can reach twice the efficacy of the lamp (32 lm/W) as compared to the original value. Using this new electrode geometrical configuration and changing the electrical signal from sinusoidal to a pulsed signal greatly improves the visual uniformity of the emitted light all over the lamp. Electrical and optical parametric measurements were performed to study the lamp characteristics. We show that it is possible to develop a free mercury lamp with an efficacy compatible with lighting purposes.

Ignition And Combustion

Cylinder-shaped fuel pellets that were 3 mm in diameter and 3 mm in height, with a mass of 20 mg, were produced by compressing dry coal processing waste under the pressure of 5 MPa. The first group of pellets from coal dust with a particle size less than 140 µm did not contain any additives. The pellets of the second group of fuel compositions contained an oil-impregnated porous polymer material particle with a size of 0.5 mm in the central part of the experimental sample. The particle was surrounded by coal dust from all sides. The ratio of components was 90:10% for coal dust: polymer particle. The latter value almost completely corresponds to the fraction of oil in the fuel composition, since the mass of a porous polymer material particle is negligible. The third group of compositions was a 70:30% mixture of coal dust with wood sawdust with a particle size less than 45 µm, or 45–100, 100–200 and 200–500 µm. The ignition and combustion of single fuel pellets were studied under radiant heating in an air medium while varying the temperature from 800 to 1000 °C. The processes during the fuel combustion were recorded by a high-speed video camera, and the concentrations of the main anthropogenic emissions in flue gases were measured by a gas analyzer. The main characteristics were established—ignition delay times (2–8 s) and duration of burnout (40–90 s)—at different heating temperatures. A difference was established in the combustion mechanisms of the pellets, when adding various components to the fuel mixture composition. This has a direct influence on the induction period duration and combustion time, other conditions being equal, as well as on the concentration of nitrogen and sulfur oxides in the flue gases. Adding an oil-impregnated porous polymer particle to the fuel composition intensifies ignition and combustion, since the times of ignition delay and complete burnout of fuel pellets under threshold conditions decrease by 70%, whereas adding wood sawdust reduces the content of nitrogen and sulfur oxides in the flue gases by 30% and 25%, respectively.

In this paper, we present a technique for freezing monolayers of micron and sub-micron sized particles onto the surface of a flexible thin film after the self-assembly of a particle monolayer on fluid-liquid interfaces has been improved by the process we have developed where an electric field is applied in the direction normal to the interface. Particles smaller than about 10 microns do not self-assemble under the action of lateral capillary forces alone since capillary forces amongst them are small compared to Brownian forces. We have overcome this problem by applying an electric field in the direction normal to the interface which gives rise to dipoledipole and capillary forces which cause the particles to arrange in a triangular pattern. The technique involves assembling the monolayer on the interface between a UV-curable resin and another liquid by applying an electric field, and then curing the resin by applying UV light. The monolayer becomes embedded on the surface of the solidified resin film.

We present a new ghost-imaging experiment that is realized by exploiting two intense correlated beams. The beams involved are signal and idler of a seeded parametric downconversion. The peculiarity of this scheme is that the seed field is an intense pseudo-thermal field generated by passing a laser beam through two rotating ground glass plates.
