The diffusion coefficient characterizing the Dicke narrowing of the rotational Raman lines, in general, depends on the polarizations of the incident and scattered light and on the scattering angle. Experimental results for the anisotropic diffusion coefficient are presented for 90° scattering and vv and vh polarizations of the S0(1) line in gaseous hydrogen. The physical interpretation of the observed anisotropy is given with the help of a simple collision model.

The Impact

Reliable measurement of the CO 2 diffusion coefficient in consolidated oil-saturated porous media is critical for the design and performance of CO 2 -enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. A thorough experimental investigation of the supercritical CO 2 diffusion in n -decane-saturated Berea cores with permeabilities of 50 and 100 mD was conducted in this study at elevated pressure (10–25 MPa) and temperature (333.15–373.15 K), which simulated actual reservoir conditions. The supercritical CO 2 diffusion coefficients in the Berea cores were calculated by a model appropriate for diffusion in porous media based on Fick's Law. The results show that the supercritical CO 2 diffusion coefficient increases as the pressure, temperature and permeability increase. The supercritical CO 2 diffusion coefficient first increases slowly at 10 MPa and then grows significantly with increasing pressure. The impact of the pressure decreases at elevated temperature. The effect of permeability remains steady despite the temperature change during the experiments. The effect of gas state and porous media on the supercritical CO 2 diffusion coefficient was further discussed by comparing the results of this study with previous study. Based on the experimental results, an empirical correlation for supercritical CO 2 diffusion coefficient in n -decane-saturated porous media was developed. The experimental results contribute to the study of supercritical CO 2 diffusion in compact porous media.

Theory And Experiment

The perturbation treatment of the orientational forces between non-spherical molecules proposed by Cook & Rowlinson (1953) is extended to mixtures by using the theory of solutions put forward by Longuet-Higgins (1951). The thermodynamic functions and the equation of state of such mixtures are expressed in terms of the intermolecular forces and the properties of one pure component. Expressions are derived for the excess (or non-ideal) thermodynamic functions which are compared with the experimental results on the four solutions, benzene+ cyclohexane , benzene+carbon tetrachloride, benzene + ethylene dychloride, and cyclohexane + carbon tetrachloride. The agreement between theory and experiment is improved by taking account of the orientational forces.

The durability of the concrete in underground and marine engineering is affected by the underground and ocean environment. Chloride diffusion coefficient under hydrostatic pressure is a key parameter of concrete durability design under corresponding conditions. Therefore, this paper studies the diffusion behavior of chloride in different diffusion source solutions by experiment and simulation. Based on the experimental results, this paper proposes a new chloride diffusion model under the coupling effect of diffusion and convection. The interaction of ions and compounds in the diffusion source solutions, concrete pore fluid, and concrete material are considered in the new chloride diffusion model. The experimental results show that chloride diffusion rate is significantly affected by hydrostatic pressure, which increases with the increase of hydrostatic pressure. The chloride diffusion coefficient shows a certain difference in difference diffusion source solutions. The chloride diffusion coefficient in divalent cationic diffusion source solutions is the largest, the chloride diffusion coefficient in the divalent and monovalent cationic compound ones is in the middle, and the chloride diffusion coefficient in the monovalent cationic ones is the smallest. There is a linear relationship between the chloride diffusion coefficient and the hydrostatic pressure whether in single or combined cationic diffusion source solutions.

Diffusion Coefficient Of Oxygen

The diffusion coefficient of oxygen (D) and the fluorescence quenching coefficient (K') of pyrenebutyric acid (PBA) were measured in sections of rat hamstring muscles. Values of D and K' at temperatures (Tc) of 20, 30, and 40 degrees C were determined and referred to the values in water. In sections cut parallel to the muscle fibers, D = DH2O (0.380 +/- 0.038), whereas in sections cut across the grain of the fibers, D = DH2O (0.985 +/- 0.039). Oxygen diffuses along the length of a muscle fiber over twice as rapidly as it diffuses in directions perpendicular to the long axis of the fiber. This suggests that fibers, myofibrils, or myofilaments offer substantial barriers to the diffusion of oxygen, whereas extracellular space and spaces around fibers or myofibrils or myofilaments offer no more resistance than water to the diffusion of oxygen. Corresponding estimates for K' were K' = K'H2O[0.14 (1 + 0.25 Tc)] and K' = K'H2O[0.21 (1 + 0.25 Tc)] for slices cut parallel to the long axis of muscle fibers and across the long axis, respectively. Standard deviations of K' were 9%.

Optical techniques are  widely employed for their non-intrusive behavior and are applied to two-phase flowinvestigations. Until now, the most commonly used technique to determine the droplet size is the Phase Doppler Anemogranulometry, although it is time consuming for an overall injector characterization. An imaging technique called Planar Droplet Sizing has been used to offer an alternative and provide a spatially-resolved 2D map of the Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD). The measurement is based on the ratio between laser-induced fluorescence and scattered light intensities which are assumed to be proportional respectively to the droplet volume and droplet surface area. However, previous studies revealed that the dependence of fluorescence intensity on the droplet volume can be altered by the absorption of light in the liquid. The scattered light intensity depends on the scattering angle and intensity variations within the field of view must be avoided.The aim of this study is to make the PDS technique operational for a Jet A-1 kerosene spray. A strong absorption of liquid kerosene appears under UV excitation at 266 nm making the technique unsuitable. Under visible excitation at 532 nm, a fluorescent tracer (Pyrromethene 597) must be added to the kerosene to enhance the fluorescence signal. To prevent scattered light intensity variations within the field of view, an optimal scattering angle close to 115° is required. An image processing algorithm is proposed in order to reduce the effects ofmultiple scattering.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/ILASS2017.2017.4698

The Difference

In this study, the difference in the touchdown and takeoff pressures was monitored by using three types of lubricant materials, namely, Zdol2000, Ztetraol2000 and A20H2000 by using the pump down pressure test. The results indicated that the touchdown pressures depended on the lubricant materials; it was greatest for Ztetraol2000 and smallest for A20H2000. The takeoff pressure was greater for a lubricant with lower mobility. Considering these experimental results, it was suggested that the variation in the touchdown pressure is due to a variation in the intermolecular forces, taking into account the lubricant pickup by a slider. Further, it was suggested that the variation in the takeoff pressure is caused by a variation in the friction forces between the slider and disk surface.

Measurements have been made of the capacitance and conductance at 200 c.p.s. of a series of potassium bromide crystals doped with divalent anion and cation impurities. The dependence of the space-charge polarization capacity, caused by blocking of current carriers at the electrodes, on the conductivity and diffusion coefficient of carriers has been established. It is concluded that linearized theories of space-charge polarization cannot explain the experimental results.

The Impact

The impact theory of Raman line broadening due to anisotropic intermolecular forces, developed previously, is applied to the broadening due to dipolar and quadrupolar forces. The optical cross sections are calculated assuming the isotropic intermolecular potential to be a hard-sphere potential, and neglecting the spread in velocities. Explicit expressions are derived for the phase-shift contribution to the width of the isotropic (j = 0) and anisotropic (j = 2) Raman scattered light as a function of the rotational quantum number J. For j = 2 scattering the phase shifts produced in the radiation do not vanish when the initial and final states of the radiation process are identical, and the phase-shift contribution to the width of the anisotropic components of the Q lines is of the same order of magnitude as for the S lines. In all cases the phase-shift contribution tends to zero when J becomes large compared with j. The contribution to the width of the inelastic collisions also tends to zero for large J, but this is characteristic of the long-range interactions considered here and results from the correspondingly short range of the resonance factors. The theory is compared with the available experimental data on H2 and N2. It is pointed out that quite generally an observation of the broadening of the isotropic and anisotropic Raman lines allows a determination of the lifetimes of the rotational levels and of the phase-shift contributions to the width of the anisotropic lines.
