Aqueous nanofluids composed of alumina nanoparticles with different sizes at a concentration from 0.1vol% to 0.5vol% were prepared by a two-step method. The suspension and dispersion characteristics were experimentally examined by zeta potential, average size and absorption spectrum. The thermophysical properties such as the viscosity, surface tension, thermal conductivity, saturation vapor pressure and latent heat of vaporization were measured. The influences of the particle size, particle volume concentration and temperature on the thermophysical property were investigated. It was found that the viscosity and thermal conductivity increased with decreasing nanoparticle size. In contrast, the surface tension, saturation vapor pressure and latent heat of vaporization decrease with decreasing nanoparticle size. The viscosity, thermal conductivity and saturation vapor pressure have an increasing tendency with increasing volume concentration. However, surface tension and latent heat of vaporization showed a reverse tendency. Furthermore, the temperature also showed had obvious influence on the nanofluids viscosity, thermal conductivity and surface tension.

Climatic warming due to increased greenhouse gases is expected to cause increased precipitation in the next century because of the increased water content of the air, assuming constant relative humidity. Since temperatures over most of Antarctica are far below freezing even in the warmest month of the year, the increase in melting is probably negligible compared to the increase in precipitation.Oerlemans (1982) showed that this increase of precipitation would cause a growth of the ice sheet, tending to lower sea level. This would partially counteract the rise of sea level due to increased melting on mountain glaciers and Greenland, and to a possible (and more difficult to predict) surge of ice from West Antarctica.Oerlemans may have underestimated the increase in accumulation. He used results of General Circulation Models (GCMs) which indicated an increase of precipitation by only 12% for a temperature change ΔΤ = 3 Κ and 30% for ΔΤ = 8 K. In contrast, the change in accumulation rate at Dome C (Lorius and others, 1979) accompanying the warming from the recent ice age to the present was in accord with the simple assumption that accumulation is proportional to saturation vapor pressure at the temperature of the inversion layer, i.e. a 30% increase for ΔΤ = 3 K.The experimental results are to be preferred to the climate model results because GCMs do not represent ice-sheet accumulation processes well. Most of the accumulation is not snow falling from clouds but instead results from clear-sky ice-crystal formation in near-surface air, or hoarfrost deposition on the surface. GCMs lack sufficient vertical resolution to represent the strong temperature inversion on which these accumulation mechanisms depend.The figure shows that the increase of vapor pressure due to ΔΤ = 5 Κ varies from a factor of 1.9 at Τ = −60°C to a factor of 1.6 at Τ = −20°C. A climatic warming of 5 K. over Antarctica, which is possible during the next century, could thus increase the Antarctic accumulation from its present 17g cm−2 yr−1 to 30 g cm−2 yr−1, leading to a 50 cm drop in sea level in 100 years. This assumes that the simple proportionality of precipitation rate to saturation vapor pressure applies as well to the coastal regions, which is doubtful because the accumulation processes are not the same as on the plateau.The potential importance of Antarctic accumulation changes in contributing to changes of sea level argues for further study of the mechanisms of Antarctic precipitation and for their improved representation in climate models.

ABSTRACTWell crystallized polycrystalline perovskite-type oxide thin and/or thick films were prepared at sufficiently low temperatures by newly developed “hydrothermal electrochemical techniques” where metals were electrochemically oxidized and reacted with some components in hydrothermal solutions. BaTiO3 films 70 to 300 nm thick were formed in Ba(OH)2 solution at 100–200°C under saturation vapor pressure on the Ti substrate and Ti deposited glass substrates. The electrical current enhanced to thicken their films. SrTiO3, BaFeO3 and LiNbO3 films were also prepared.

Abrupt closing valve in piping systems is sometimes resulted in cavitation due to the occurrence of high pressure difference. The bubbles generating by cavitation influence operating pressure and then those generate shock wave and vibration. These phenomena can consequentially cause to corrosion and erosion. So, the cavitation is the important factor to consider reliability of piping systems and mechanical lifetime. This paper investigated the various inhibition methods of cavitation in piping systems in which butterfly valves are installed. To prevent cavitation occurrence, it is desirable to analyze its characteristics between the upstream and downstream of process valve. Results show that the fluid velocity is fast when a working fluid passed through butterfly valve. The pressure of these areas was not only under saturation vapor pressure of water, but also cavitation was continuously occurred. We confirmed that the effect of existence of inserted orifice and influence to break condition under saturation vapor pressure of water. Results were graphically depicted by pressure distribution, velocity distribution, and vapor volume fraction.
