The difficulties of burning the watered fuel oil used at the TPP as a reserve fuel for boilers are associated with its preparation by heating to reduce viscosity and the choice of a method of spraying with nozzles into the combustion zone. The quality of the preparation of fuel oil for combustion affecting the boiler efficiency is estimated by the length of the flame, the presence of burning large particles of fuel oil, the injection of coke and unburned particles onto screen and other heat-receiving surfaces. One of the ways to prepare fuel oil for combustion is cavitation treatment, which results in an emulsion consisting of fine micronsized particles. Heating of fuel oil particles after the nozzle in contact with the combustion zone is due to the flow of radiation from the burning torch. Therefore, in this article, the values of the flux density from the torch during the combustion of fuel oil are experimentally determined. The influence of particle size on the burning rate of the fuel oil M100 with the different density of the thermal radiation of the flame. It is found that the effect of cavitation treatment of fuel oil on the combustion rate is most significantly manifested in particle sizes less than 10 microns. For this purpose, the use of hydrodynamic cavitators are preferred at high fuel oil consumption rate.

NiTi shape memory alloys have attracted significant interest due to their unique superelasticity and high damping performance. In this work, the effect of SiC particle size on both physical and mechanical properties of NiTi matrix composite was investigated. Ni and Ti powders with particle sizes of 40 µm were used with the SiC addition with varying particle sizes of 20 µm and 40 µm, respectively. Composites of NiTi with 1wt. % SiC were fabricated by powder metallurgy technique. The effects of SiCp addition on hardness, relative density and wear behavior of NiTi composites have been investigated. The samples were examined by scanning electron microscope, for microstructural studies and phase development. The results showed that the distribution of the reinforced particle was uniform. Moreover, as the SiC particle size decreases, hardness and wear resistance increase. It was demonstrated that SiC particle size significantly enhanced the wear resistance of NiTi composite.

Silica is mainly used in the production of rubber, glass, cement, glass, ceramics, paper, cosmetics, electronics, paintings, healthcare and other industries. Kalirejo village has a potential abundant resource of silica minerals. However, to refine it, high cost of extraction should be done to obtain high purity of silica. Different refining methods influence different purity of the silica. The purpose of this research was to study the refining process of mineral rock silica from Kalirejo village, Kokap, Kulonprogo by emplying simple and cheap solid-liquid extraction. Extraction was done by varying the particle size at 100 - 200 mesh, while NaOH concentration was varied in 0.5 N to 5 N.  Results showed that minerals taken from Kalirejo village was dominated by silica (23%).  The largest extract (4.89 gram) was obtained at 200 mesh and using NaOH 5 N with yield of 15.07%. Higher NaOH and higher particle size enhanced the extraction yield. This finding could help small communities in Kalirejo village to enhance the quality of silica by employing simple and cheap extraction process.

Wood dust poses a threat to the health of employees and the risk of explosion and fire, accelerates the wear of machines, worsens the quality of processing, and requires large financial outlays for its removal. The aim of this study was to investigate the extent to which the grit size of sandpaper influences the size of the wood dust particles and the proportion of the finest particles which, when dispersed in the air, may constitute the respirable fraction. Six species of hardwood (beech, oak, ash, hornbeam, alder, and walnut), and three species of softwood (larch, pine, and spruce) were used in the research. While sanding the samples under the established laboratory conditions, the following were measured for two types of sandpapers (grit sizes P60 and P180): mean arithmetic particle size of dust and finest dust particles content (<10 µm). Based on the obtained results, we found that the largest dust particle sizes were obtained for alder, pine, and spruce; the smallest size of dust particles during sanding with both sandpapers was obtained for beech, hornbeam, oak, ash, larch, and walnut. The mean arithmetic particle sizes ranged from 327.98 µm for pine to 104.23 µm for hornbeam. The mean particle size of the dust obtained with P60 granulation paper was 1.4 times larger than that of the dust obtained with P180 granulation sandpaper. The content of the finest dust particles ranged from 0.21% for pine (P60 sandpaper) to 12.58% for beech (P180 sandpaper).The type of wood (hardwood or softwood) has a significant influence on the particle size and the content of the finest dust fraction.

The physical quality of peat mixes is in part related to the capacity of the substrate to store and supply air and water to plant roots. During manufacturing, the mixing of various substrate components modifies the substrate characteristics. The objective of this study was to assess the changes in air storage and supply properties caused by varying the particle size of the substrate components. The substrate was composed of 40% wood bark (WB), 50% peat, and 10% coarse gravel (volume basis). Wood bark particle size was varied in a first (0–2, 2–4, 4–8 and 8–25 mm) and a second (1–2, 2–4, 4–8 and 8–16 mm) experiment. When increasing bark particle sizes to 8–25 mm or 8–16 mm, air supply characteristics, as assessed with gas diffusivity measurements, decreased to 0.78 or 0.45 its value for the 2–4 or 1–2 mm average bark particle size. This occurred despite no significant changes in air storage, as assessed from air-filled porosity measurements. Key words: Gas diffusivity, pore tortuosity, air-filled porosity, peat lite mixes, peat substrates

Abstract In selective laser melting (SLM) and selective laser sintering (SLS) additive manufacturing techniques, the powder spreading process plays a key role in the quality of the manufactured parts. Some of the important parameters that influence the quality of the powder bed are the powder particle size distribution, spreader-type (roller or blade), spreader speed, size and shape of the particles. In this work, we use the discrete element method to study the effect of these parameters on the quality of the powder bed. The interactions between the particles is modeled using Hertz-Mindlin contact model as well as Hertz-Mindlin with JKR contact model with the latter being used for studies of the effect of cohesiveness of particles on powder bed quality. The Dynamic Repose Angle (DRA) is used for validating the numerical models. Our studies differ from the previous studies in that we have introduced quantitative measures for powder bed quality in the form of Discretized Volume Fraction (DVF) and Particle Flow Rate (PFR) for the layering process. With the help of these quantities, we studied various factors that affect powder bed quality: cohesiveness of the particles, spreader shape, particle size and shape, and the distribution of particle sizes. Our results indicate that as DVF and PFR decrease and DRA increases, the potential for cavities and shifting defects increases due to increase in cohesiveness. Use of fixed particle size in the simulations leads to higher DRA than when a normal distribution of particle sizes is considered. Our results show that the roller geometry provides better bed quality as compared to the blade type geometry.

A new WC matrix nanocomposite cermet was prepared by hot-press sintering. In the composite, certain amounts of VC is added to the composite as grain growth inhibitors. The consolidation is carried out under pressure 30～35Mpa and sintering temperature 1610°C for soaking 30min sintering. Microstructure of the nanocomposite cermet is scanned by SEM and mechanical properties are measured. It is detected that microstructure and fracture morphology is dissimilar to different particle sizes. Experimental results show that particle size of WC is important to the composite. Results show that relative density and hardness have the similar trend in growth. Meanwhile, the function of Al2O3 addition is also investigated in this paper.

In many branches of industrial production, there is a need for continual monitoring of the quality of manufactured product. Such requirements arise in the production of fertilizers, as the physical and mechanical properties of fertilizers affect the quality of application provided by fertilizer spreaders. The aim of the presented paper was to compare the suitability and applicability of the photo-optical image analysis with the sieve analysis used for the determination of fertilizer particle size distribution. The photo-optical method was used by [1] to study the fertilizer particle size distribution. These researchers tried to measure the size and velocity of flying particles in relation to the quality of application of centrifugal spreaders. During our comparative experiments, we have compared the photo-optical image analysis and sieve analysis. In experiments, we used the samples of the granulated fertilizer NMgS produced by the Duslo, a.s. company. The sieve analysis was conducted according to the national standard STN EN 1235 in the laboratories of the Department of Machines and Production Systems at the Faculty of Engineering, Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra.

ABSTRACT This research aims to evaluate the quality of particleboard produced with particles generated from discarded furniture, both in its pure form or mixed with industrial particles of Pinus. The material was collected in the region of Curitiba City (Paraná) in the form of chips processed in an industrial chipper of a company specialized in waste wood recycling. The experimental plan consisted in producing panels with 10%, 25%, 50% and 75% of particles obtained from discarded furniture mixed with particles of Pinus, and panels with 100% of such materials. Panels were produced with nominal density of 0,70 g/cm3, using the urea-formaldehyde resin in a proportion of 10% solids - dry basis weight of the particles and 1% paraffin emulsion. The panels were pressed with a specific pressure of 4,0 MPa, temperature of 140ºC and pressing time of 10 minutes. The results of internal bond met the requirements of the standard EN 312, which indicates that there was an adequate bonding of these particles obtained from discarded furniture. The results of physical and mechanical properties of the panels demonstrated the feasibility of using particles from discarded furniture when producing particleboard, with the possibility of full use of these particles from waste without mixing it with industrial particles of Pinus free from contamination.
