It can divide the atomization effect in the direction of the nozzle axial injection into the jet area and the non-jet area by using the second crushing theory. On this basis, according to the feed liquid atomization particles discrete degree index of characteristics particle size of feed liquid atomization, it divides the injection zone into the atomization area and the diffusion area, so as to realize the axial direction of jet nozzle injection zone, atomization zone and the diffusion zone accurately. Simulation and experiment are used to verify the three zones of atomization nozzle. The division of three zones drives the study from the whole space of liquid distribution in the roller to atomization zone, clears the key zone of the roller in tobacco primary processing, and provides a basis for further work.

Conventional plasma jets for biomedical applications tend to have several drawbacks, such as high voltages, high gas delivery, large plasma probe volume, and the formation of discharge within the organ. Therefore, it is challenging to employ these jets inside a living organism’s body. Thus, we developed a single-electrode tiny plasma jet and evaluated its use for clinical biomedical applications. We investigated the effect of voltage input and flow rate on the jet length and studied the physical parameters of the plasma jet, including discharge voltage, average gas and subject temperature, and optical emissions via spectroscopy (OES). The interactions between the tiny plasma jet and five subjects (de-ionized (DI) water, metal, cardboard, pork belly, and pork muscle) were studied at distances of 10 mm and 15 mm from the jet nozzle. The results showed that the tiny plasma jet caused no damage or burning of tissues, and the ROS/RNS (reactive oxygen/nitrogen species) intensity increased when the distance was lowered from 15 mm to 10 mm. These initial observations establish the tiny plasma jet device as a potentially useful tool in clinical biomedical applications.

Results are presented from an experimental study conducted to determine the average convective heat transfer coefficient for the side of a rotating disk, with an approximately uniform surface temperature, cooled by a single liquid jet of oil impinging normal to the surface. Tests were conducted over a range of jet flow rates, jet temperatures, jet radial positions, and disk angular velocities with various combinations of three jet nozzle and disk diameters. Correlations are presented that relate the average Nusselt number to rotational Reynolds number, jet Reynolds number, jet Prandtl number, and dimensionless jet radial position.

Much is already known about the heat transfer characteristics of impinging air jets, and they are widely used in many engineering applications. There currently exist many correlations describing such characteristics. However, the complex internal structure of many nozzles can lead these to produce results which deviate from those predicted by correlations. One such nozzle is currently used in this research group to produce a water mist flow and this paper describes the experimental characteristics of its single phase behaviour.

In order to study the working state of the export of jet-mixing apparatus under different loads,by comparing the bench test and its application in spray system, the working state of jet-mixing apparatus is studied.The results show that, in the bench test, the export of jet-mixing apparatus is unloaded and the state of jet-mixing apparatus is absorbing pesticide; the jet nozzle whose diameter is 2mm and suction chamber whose diameter is 3mm of the jet-mixing apparatus produce a large number of bubbles, the suction chamber emerges cavitation. The export of jet-mixing apparatus is connected with the F110 spray system, the working state of jet-mixing apparatus with a 2mm diameter jet nozzle is sucking pesticide; the working state of 3mm and 4mm jet nozzle diameter is reflux. The export of jet-mixing apparatus is connected with the outlet of F110 spray system suction chamber.They do not emerge cavitation. The load on the export of jet-mixing apparatus affect the working state of jet-mixing apparatus, also has certain influence on cavitation in the suction chamber.

Abstract Objective Treatment of implants with peri-implantitis is often unsuccessful due to residual microbial biofilm hindering re-osseointegration. The aim of this study was to treat biofilm-grown titanium (Ti) implants with different modalities involving air abrasion (AA) and cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) to compare the effectiveness in surface decontamination and the alteration/preservation of surface topography. Materials and methods Saliva collected from a peri-implantitis patient was used to in vitro develop human biofilm over 35 implants with moderately rough surface. The implants were then mounted onto standardized acrylic blocks simulating peri-implantitis defects and treated with AA (erythritol powder), CAP in a liquid medium, or a combination (COM) of both modalities. The remaining biofilm was measured by crystal violet (CV). Surface features and roughness before and after treatment were assessed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The data were statistically analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison test. Results In the present peri-implantitis model, the human complex biofilm growth was successful as indicated by the statistical significance between the negative and positive controls. All the treatment groups resulted in a remarkable implant surface decontamination, with values very close to the negative control for AA and COM. Indeed, statistically significant differences in the comparison between the positive control vs. all the treatment groups were found. SEM analysis showed no post-treatment alterations on the implant surface in all the groups. Conclusions Decontamination with AA delivering erythritol with or without CAP in liquid medium demonstrated compelling efficacy in the removal of biofilm from implants. All the tested treatments did not cause qualitative alterations to the Ti surface features. No specific effects of the CAP were observed, although further studies are necessary to assess its potential as monotherapy with different settings or in combination with other decontamination procedures. Clinical relevance CAP is a promising option in the treatment of peri-implantitis because it has potential to improve the elimination of bacterial plaque from implant surfaces, in inaccessible pockets or during open-flap debridement, and should stimulate the process of the re-osseointegration of affected dental implants by not altering surface features and roughness.
