Abstract. The Si and SiC in wire cutting waste slurry from photovoltaic silicon were recovery and separation by froth floatation in this paper, and the lauryl amine and sodium hamates were used as collector and flocculants, respectively. The effects of collector concentration, inhibitor species, and solution temperature and pH value on separation efficiency were investigated. The morphology of collected solid was characterized by SEM.The phase composition of collected solid was characterized by XRD. Laser particle seizer was used to study the particle size distribution. The results showed that temperature had little effect on the flotation efficiency. When pH value was 7, the lauryl amine adapts to neutral environment and the collecting effect of collector was the best, and cellulose was considered to be the best inhibitors in four different inhibitors. When volume fraction of lauryl amine, sodium humate flocculant, cellulose inhibitor, and temperature and pH value were 0.16%, 0.16%, 0.25‰, 30°C and 7, respectively, the solid collecting rate and collected SiC purity were respectively 51.94% and 94.7%.

A new Monte Carlo method termed Comb-like frame Monte Carlo is developed to simulate the soot dynamics. Detailed stochastic error analysis is provided. Comb-like frame Monte Carlo is coupled with the gas phase solver Chemkin II to simulate soot formation in a 1-D premixed burner stabilized flame. The simulated soot number density, volume fraction, and particle size distribution all agree well with the measurement available in literature. The origin of the bimodal distribution of particle size distribution is revealed with quantitative proof.

Petch Relation

The Hall-Petch relation in a spheroidized steel with bimodal cementite particle size distribution has been investigated in this study, with an emphasis on considering the effect of the large particles at ferrite grain boundaries and triple junctions. A medium carbon steel was processed by variable thermomechanical procedures to achieve spheroidized structures with different combinations of microstructrual parameters, but all exhibiting a bimodal particle size distribution, in which large intergranular particles and small intragranular particles coexisted in the ferrite matrix. A quantitative relationship between the Hall-Petch parameter ky and the volume fraction of the intergranular cementite particles is presented, by considering a composite model. The contribution of the large intergranular particles to grain boundary strengthening wa substantiated by the increment of the ky parameter, since the average orientation factor of the composite, is increased. After correction of the ky parameters based on the constants from literatures, the predicted stresses show good agreement with the experimental stresses. A linear fit between the experimental stresses and the reciprocal square root of grain sizes is performed, the slope constant ky derived agrees to within 11 % of the corrected ky parameters based on the constants from literatures.

ABSTRACTIn portland cement mortar and concrete, interfacial zones exist around the aggregate particles that have larger pore sizes and pore volumes than the bulk cement paste. If there are enough aggregate particles present, these zones may overlap so as to percolate. A computer simulation model has been developed that can predict this percolation point as a function of interfacial zone thickness, volume fraction of aggregates, and aggregate particle size distribution. The model was used to simulate 1cm3 of mortar, using approximately 10,000 aggregate particles. Results from this model are used to explain recent mercury porosimetry results on mortars having a variety of sand contents. The implications of interfacial zone percolation for the transport properties of mortar and concrete are discussed.

The dynamics of phase coarsening at ultra-high volume fractions is studied based on two-dimensional phase-field simulations by numerically solving the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau and Cahn-Hilliard equations. The kinetics of phase coarsening at ultra-high volume fractions is discovered. The microstructural evolutions for different ultra-high volume fractions are shown. The scaled particle size distribution as functions of the dispersoid volume fraction is presented. The particle size distribution derived from our simulation at ultra-high volume fractions is close to Wagner's particle size distribution due to interface-controlled ripening rather than Hillert's grain size distribution in grain growth. The changes of shapes of particles are carefully studied with increase of volume fraction. It is found that more liquid-filled triple junctions are formed as a result of particle shape accommodation with increase of volume fraction at the regime of ultra-high volume fraction.

Generalized Kinetic Model

Polydisperse suspensions with particles of a finite number N of size classes have been widely studied in laboratory experiments. However, in most real-world applications the particle sizes are distributed continuously. In this paper, a well-studied one-dimensional kinematic model for batch sedimentation of polydisperse suspensions of small equal-density spheres is extended to suspensions with a continuous particle size distribution. For this purpose, the phase density function Φ = Φ(t, x, ξ), where ξ ∈ [0, 1] is the normalized squared size of the particles, is introduced, whose integral with respect to ξ on an interval [ξ1, ξ2] is equivalent to the volume fraction at (t, x) occupied by particles of that size range. Combining the Masliyah–Lockett–Bassoon (MLB) model for the solid-fluid relative velocity for each solids species with the concept of phase density function yields a scalar, first-order equation for Φ, namely the equation of the generalized kinetic theory. Three numerical schemes for the solution of this equation are introduced, and a numerical example and an L1 error study show that one of these schemes introduces less numerical diffusion and less spurious oscillations near discontinuities than the others. Several numerical examples illustrate the simulated behavior of this kind of suspensions. Numerical results also illustrate the solution of an eigenvalue problem associated with the equation of the generalized kinetic theory.
