Analytical Expressions

The relationship between the relative fluorescence signal excited and collected with a double-fiber optic sensor and the sample depth has been investigated. The complexity of the analytical expressions for the relative fluorescence signal and the effective depth was reduced by deriving a set of semi-empirical equations which can be evaluated in a simple fashion. These expressions take into account the configuration of the sensor, i.e., fiber diameter, acceptance angle, and separation between fibers. The expressions were tested with the use of double-fiber sensors with different diameters and separations between fibers. The reduction of the effective depth in solutions with significant absorbance was evaluated.

RESUMO: Apresenta-se neste trabalho a solução adotada para execução das fundações do Parque de Usina Eólica localizado no Ceará, com a utilização das estacas injetadas autoperfurantes, executadas em presença de solos arenosos. No qual consiste em perfurar o solo com altíssima velocidade por rotação e “pull down”, através da injeção simultânea de nata de cimento com medias pressões. Ocasionando na estaca um diâmetro final que pode obter o dobro do bit de perfuração, de acordo com o tipo de solo, gerado pelo efeito do jato da nata de cimento. Detalhando os processos executivos, verificando os aspectos técnicos e operacionais, para melhor compreender as características estruturais deste elemento. De forma a verificar “in situ” o desempenho deste novo tipo de fundação profunda, foram realizadas provas de carga, em estacas com diferentes diâmetros e comprimentos, realizadas em perfis estratigráficos de solos arenosos, para melhor avaliação de sua capacidade de carga. Analisando-se os ensaios das provas de carga interpretados a base da extrapolação da curva carga versus recalque e das previsões da capacidade de carga, obtidas por meio dos métodos semi-empíricos de correlação com ensaios de penetração (SPT), avaliando os padrões de execução desta tipologia de estaca injetada para comunidade geotécnica. ABSTRACT: This paper aims to establish the selected solution to except the foundations of the Wind Energy Park in Ceará (Brazil), with an executive methodology of the self-drilling injection piles framed in loco in Sandy soil. In which the soil drilling is done with the highest speed by rotation and pull down, through the simultaneous injection of grouting with medium pressures. This kind of drilling causes in the pile a final diameter that can get the double bore bit, according to the type of soil, done by the grouting blast. The executive processes are detailed as a whole, and also presenting the pile materials composition, in order to understand the structural characteristics of this element. To verify the performance of this new kind of deep drilling, instrumentations were done: settlement control and load tests in constructions with different structural characteristics, in self-drilling injected piles with different diameters and length, done in stratigraphical sandy, for a better evaluation of its load capacity. Analyzing the essays of load tests interpreted in the basis of curve extrapolation load versus settlement and the previsions of the load capacity, obtained by semi-empirical methods correlating with the penetrations methods (SPT), offering information to the geotechnical community.

Taylor Bubbles

It has been noted that a volume of lighter liquid when injected into a stationary column of a heavier liquid, it rises up as a simple elongated Taylor bubble. In the present study, experimental and theoretical analyses have been performed to understand the rise of liquid Taylor bubbles. The experiments have been performed with different liquid pairs with their viscosities ranging from 0.71mPas to 1.75mPas and conduit sizes ranging from 0.012 m to 0.0461 m. The bubble shape has been predicted using a potential flow analysis and validated from photographic measurements. This analysis has been further modified to predict the rise velocity. The modified analysis accounts for the density difference between the two liquids, viscosity effects of the primary liquid, and interfacial tension of two fluids. A semi-empirical equation has been developed, which gives satisfactory results for most of the cases.

Fuel cells are a clean and weather-independent power supply. Solar and wind power are widespread in islands that are difficult to supply power. If problems are solved in the future, fuel cells are also expected to become popular. The widespread commercialization of PEMFC stacks depends on their reliability and fault diagnosis. In this study, we developed a degradation diagnosis method for the purpose of improving reliability. The output reduction of the fuel cell is separated into reduction factors called overpotentials. And the factor of the decrease is specified. In this paper, we show the proposed method and the degradation factors, and the effectiveness of the method.

Abstract The influence of the moment of inertia on the rotational fluorescence depolarization is discussed. Based on experimental results obtained for five luminescent compounds: 2,5-diphenyloxazole (PPO), 2,2'-p-phenylene-bis(5-phenyloxazole) (POPOP), p-bis[2-(5-α-naphthyloxazolyl)]-benzene (α-NOPON), 4-dimethylamino-ω-methylsulphonyl-trans-styrene (3a) in n-parafines at low viscosity (from 0.22 x 10-3 Pa • s to 0.993 x 10-3 Pa • s) and diphenylenestilbene (DPS) in different solvents, a semi-empirical equation is proposed, yielding moments of inertia that are only two to five times higher than those estimated from the molecular geometry
