AbstractWe model a cold-wall atmospheric pressure impinging jet reactor to study the CVD and gas-phase nucleation of TiO2 from a titanium tetra-iso-propoxide (TTIP)/oxygen dilute source gas mixture in nitrogen. The mathematical model uses the computational code FIDAP and complements our recent asymptotic theory for high activation energy gas-phase reactions in thin chemically reacting sublayers. The numerical predictions highlight deviations from ideality in various regions inside the experimental reactor. Model predictions of deposition rates and the onset of gas-phase nucleation compare favorably with experiments. Although variable property effects on deposition rates are not significant (∼11% at 1000K), the reduction of rates due to Soret transport is substantial (∼75% at 1000K).

ABSTRACTThe growth of GaAs from triethylgallium (TEG) and trimethylgallium (TMG) with tertiarybutylarsine (tBAs), triethylarsenic (TEAs), and trimethylarsenic (TMAs), has been investigated by using a reactor equipped with a recording microbalance for in situ rate measurements. Rate data show that the growth with these precursors is dominated by the formation of adduct compounds in the gas lines, by adduct related parasitic gas phase reactions in the heated zone, and by the surface reactions. A model is proposed for the competition between deposition reactions and the parasitic gas phase reactions. Model predictions are in very good agreement with experimental data for all combinations of precursors except for TEG/TMAs where extensive gallium droplet formation is observed at low temperatures. Growth of reasonable quality GaAs with Hall mobilities of 7600 cm2/Vs at 77 K using TEG and tBAs is reported for the first time.

This article has established a three-way catalytic converter reactor model of gas phase reactions and surface reactions. Based on this model, cold start transient emission numerical simulation has been done. The result shows that the influence of ambient temperature and exhaust temperature on the HC is much greater than the impact on the CO.

AbstractA kinetic model for metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) of GaAs from trimethylgallium and arsine is imbedded into two-dimensional transport phenomena descriptions of horizontal and vertical MOVPE reactors. The mechanism involves 15 gas-phase species, 17 gas-phase reactions, 9 surface species and 26 surface reactions. The surface reactions take into account different crystallographic orientations of the GaAs substrate. Carbon incorporation is predicted to occur via carbene containing species. A sensitivity analysis shows that only a few reactions are needed to simulate observed growth rates while the full mechanism is important in computing carbon levels in GaAs. The model predictions are in good agreement with data for trimethylgallium decomposition in hot isothermal tubes, with GaAs growth in horizontal reactors, and with carbon incorporation in vertical reactors. The transport-reaction model demonstrates that both gas-phase and surface reactions as well as transport phenomena are important in predicting MOVPE reactor performance.

The paper presents the results of modeling the dynamics of flow, friction and heat transfer in a descending gas-liquid flow in the pipe. The mathematical model is based on the use of the Eulerian description for both phases. The effect of a change in the degree of dispersion of the gas phase at the input, flow rate, initial liquid temperature and its friction and heat transfer rate in a two-phase flow. Addition of the gas phase causes an increase in heat transfer and friction on the wall, and these effects become more noticeable with increasing gas content and bubble diameter.

Gas phase nucleation is a ubiquitous phenomenon in planetary atmospheres and technical processes, yet our understanding of it is far from complete. In particular, the enhancement of nucleation by the addition of a more volatile, weakly interacting gaseous species to a nucleating vapor has escaped molecular-level experimental investigation. Here, we use a specially designed experiment to directly measure the chemical composition and the concentration of nucleating clusters in various binary CO2-containing vapors. Our analysis suggests that CO2 essentially catalyzes nucleation of the low vapor pressure component through the formation of transient, hetero-molecular clusters and thus provides alternative pathways for nucleation to proceed more efficiently. This work opens up new avenues for the quantitative assessment of nucleation mechanisms involving transient species in multicomponent vapors.
