An advanced methodology of phase transition determination in aqueous solutions of thermo-sensitive polymers by using of the phase portraits method has been suggested. The methodology allows highly accurate determining the temperature when exactly a half of molecules loses solubility (from the maximum number that can go to another phase state under given conditions). It is shown that since phase transition passes usually in a wide enough temperature interval this indicator should be used as a quantitative parameter that characterizes phase transition process. Additionally the suggested methodology allows introducing one more quantitative parameter that reflects a sharpness of phase transition. The methodology is verified by an example of phase transitions study in aqueous solutions of thermo-sensitive copolymers based on N-vinylpyrrolidone and vinyl propyl ether.

Micro-sized rods show a lower phase transition temperature than nano-sized rods, and this is interpreted on the basis of nucleating defects.

The solubility of calcium sulphate in water at different temperatures is important for the description of chemical processes occurring in heat exchangers as well as in geothermal processes. Great discrepancies have been reported between experimental and predicted solubilities at high temperature and the transition temperature for the phase transition process (gypsum → anhydrite) is ill-defined.We have analyzed the available data for the solubility of calcium sulphate in water with no added electrolyte. Ion-pairing has been taken into account to calculate the standard thermodynamic properties of the solution process.It is found that the solubility data for gypsum and anhydrite are thermodynamically very consistent. It is possible to obtain the thermodynamic properties of the phase transition from solution data and, at 298.15 K and 101.325 kPa, they are in very good agreement with reported values from measurements with the pure phases. The transition temperature is calculated to be 315.7 ± 0.4 K.It is also shown that the experimental data agree with values predicted for high temperature by employing well-established methods of calculation of solution thermodynamic properties (e.g., principles of correspondence and of constant charge).

We generalize the holographic superconductor model with dark matter sector by including the Stückelberg mechanism in the four-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) black hole background away from the probe limit. We study effects of the dark matter sector on the [Formula: see text]-wave scalar condensation and find that the dark matter sector affects the critical phase transition temperature and also the order of phase transitions. At last, we conclude that the dark matter sector brings richer physics in this general metal/superconductor system.

A new lattice Boltzmann model, which is based on Shan-Chen (SC) model, is proposed to describe liquid-vapor phase transitions. The new model is validated through simulation of the one-component phase transition process. Compared with the simulation results of van der Waals fluid and the Maxwell equal-area construction, the results of new model are closer to the analytical solutions than those of SC model and Zhang model. Since the range of temperature and the maximum density ratio are increased, and the value of maximum spurious current is between those of SC and Zhang models, it is believed that this new model has better stability than SC and Zhang models. Therefore, the application scope of this new model is expanded. According to the principle of corresponding states in Engineering Thermodynamics, the simulations of water and ammonia phase transition process are implemented by using this new model with different equations of state. Compared to the experimental data of water and ammonia, the results show that the Peng-Robinson equation of state is more suitable to describe the water, ammonia and other substances phase transition process. Therefore, these simulation results have great significance for the real engineering applications.

The effect of three anions, Cl-, Br- and I-, on the phase transitions of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) was measured. Main phase transition was modestly affected by these anions in the salt concentration range 0.2 M. For Cl- and Br- the temperature of main phase transition was lower (by about 0.5 °C), its half-width modestly larger and enthalpy practically unchanged, all three parameters were altered to a much larger degree. Main phase transition temperature was 1.5 °C lower and the peak half-width significantly smaller. These changes were not accompanied by any alteration in main phase transition enthalpy. Iodide shifted the pretransition temperature toward lower values and increased its half-width to such an extent that at concentrations above 100 mm it was practically undetectable. Besides cations, the presence of anions also has a distinct effect on lipid bilayer interface properties.

Crossover from individual Rabi dynamics to collective Josephson dynamics in two-coupled Bose–Einstein condensates is studied as a phase transition process. We obtain the critical value of the parameter Λ (ratio of the mean field energy to the tunneling matrix element) for the π-phase oscillations from the non-linear perturbation expansion of small oscillations around the saddle point of the first-order Euclidean (imaginary time) differential equations for polar and azimuthal angles θ and ϕ without approximation.
