Discussion of

To give an example with a specific choice of w, consider w = VC- Then 

As previously observed, the choice of w is to some extent arbitrary. This can be understood when one realizes that there is a direct connection between the choice of generalized coordinates in (4.14) and the choice of w. Just as the choice of ( /i. i Y i S is arbitrary, so is the choice of w. 

With this choice, the condition w V 7/ 0 is trivially satisfied since 

We are now going to show that (4.15) is in fact identical to (4.14), which involved the Jacobian J. 

This is the same term as in (4.14). The second term is equal to

The detailed techniques presented here are based on particular models for the vapor phase (Hayden-O Connell) and for the liquid phase (UNIQUAC). However, our discussion of these techniques is sufficiently general to allow the use of other models, whenever the user prefers to do so. 

Excellent comprehensive survey, including a discussion of experimental methods. 

In the next three sections we discuss calculation of liquid-liquid equilibria (LLE) for ternary systems and then conclude the chapter with a discussion of LLE for systems containing more than three components. 

The method used here is based on a general application of the maximum-likelihood principle. A rigorous discussion is given by Bard (1974) on nonlinear-parameter estimation based on the maximum-likelihood principle. The most important feature of this method is that it attempts properly to account for all measurement errors. A discussion of the background of this method and details of its implementation are given by Anderson et al. (1978). 

Detailed discussion of all input options are given in the Data Input section.

The paper focuses on the presentation and discussion of the results of the application of long term, continuous, AE structural monitoring to 2 large superheated (SH) steam outlet headers, belonging to 2 different full-size (600 MW, supercritical multifuel) ENEL power units. Continuous AE surveillance of the 2 SH headers started in October 1996 and is still ongoing. 

All the three techniques mentioned above may make use of fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic (for fuzzy classification, fuzzy rules or fuzzy matching) but this does not effect the discussion of the applicability to NDT problems in the next section. 

We turn now to a discussion of simulations made to easily find this optimum exciation frequency. 

Another fundamental characteristic ofNDT data is that it is spatial. It is the use of an NDT signal, together with its location, which provides insight into the hidden nature of the test-piece. Any discussion of NDT inspection data assumes the spatial component is included. 

The following discussion of wastage profiles is a result of observations made during many years of inspection. The classifications have been kept relatively broad as many permutations of these basic classes have been observed. It is also nor uncommon for two types of wastage profile to be evident on the same tube. 

Perhaps the best discussions of the experimental aspects of the capillary rise method are still those given by Richards and Carver [20] and Harkins and Brown [21]. For the most accurate work, it is necessary that the liquid wet the wall of the capillary so that there be no uncertainty as to the contact angle. Because of its transparency and because it is wet by most liquids, a glass capillary is most commonly used. The glass must be very clean, and even so it is wise to use a receding meniscus. The capillary must be accurately vertical, of accurately known and uniform radius, and should not deviate from circularity in cross section by more than a few percent. 

Figure III-l depicts a hypothetical system consisting of some liquid that fills a box having a sliding cover the material of the cover is such that the interfacial tension between it and the liquid is zero. If the cover is slid back so as to uncover an amount of surface dJl, the work required to do so will he ydSl. This is reversible work at constant pressure and temperature and thus gives the increase in free energy of the system (see Section XVII-12 for a more detailed discussion of the thermodynamics of surfaces).

A case can be made for the usefulness of surface tension as a concept even in the case of a normal liquid-vapor interface. A discussion of this appears in papers by Brown [33] and Gurney [34]. The informal practice of using surface tension and surface free energy interchangeably will be followed in this text. 

There is one remaining and very significant aspect of liquid-air and liquid-liquid interfaces to be considered before proceeding to a discussion of... 

The discussion of surface viscosity and other aspects of surface rheology is deferred to Section IV-3C. 

The succeeding material is broadly organized according to the types of experimental quantities measured because much of the literature is so grouped. In the next chapter spread monolayers are discussed, and in later chapters the topics of adsorption from solution and of gas adsorption are considered. Irrespective of the experimental compartmentation, the conclusions as to the nature of mobile adsorbed films, that is, their structure and equations of state, will tend to be of a general validity. Thus, only a limited discussion of Gibbs monolayers has been given here, and none of such related aspects as the contact potentials of solutions or of adsorption at liquid-liquid interfaces, as it is more efficient to treat these topics later.

Generally speaking, intermolecular forces act over a short range. Were this not the case, the specific energy of a portion of matter would depend on its size quantities such as molar enthalpies of formation would be extensive variables On the other hand, the cumulative effects of these forces between macroscopic bodies extend over a rather long range and the discussion of such situations constitutes the chief subject of this chapter. 

This discussion of gas adsorption applies in similar manner to adsorption from solution, and this topic is taken up in more detail in Chapter XII. 

There are some subtleties with respect to the physicochemical meaning of the contact angle equation, and these are taken up in Section X-7. The preceding, however, serves to introduce the conventional definitions to permit discussion of the experimental observations. 

It is clear from our discussion of contact angle hysteresis that there is some degree of variability in reported contact angle values. The data collected in Table X-2, therefore, are intended mainly as a guide to the type of behavior to be expected. The older data comprise mainly results for refractory and relatively polar solids, while newer data are for polymeric surfaces. 

Stem layer adsorption was involved in the discussion of the effect of ions on f potentials (Section V-6), electrocapillary behavior (Section V-7), and electrode potentials (Section V-8) and enters into the effect of electrolytes on charged monolayers (Section XV-6). More speciflcally, this type of behavior occurs in the adsorption of electrolytes by ionic crystals. A large amount of wotk of this type has been done, partly because of the importance of such effects on the purity of precipitates of analytical interest and partly because of the role of such adsorption in coagulation and other colloid chemical processes. Early studies include those by Weiser [157], by Paneth, Hahn, and Fajans [158], and by Kolthoff and co-workers [159], A recent calorimetric study of proton adsorption by Lyklema and co-workers [160] supports a new thermodynamic analysis of double-layer formation. A recent example of this is found in a study... 

This chapter concludes our discussion of applications of surface chemistry with the possible exception of some of the materials on heterogeneous catalysis in Chapter XVIII. The subjects touched on here are a continuation of Chapter IV on surface films on liquid substrates. There has been an explosion of research in this subject area, and, again, we are limited to providing just an overview of the more fundamental topics. 

Many complex systems have been spread on liquid interfaces for a variety of reasons. We begin this chapter with a discussion of the behavior of synthetic polymers at the liquid-air interface. Most of these systems are linear macromolecules however, rigid-rod polymers and more complex structures are of interest for potential optoelectronic applications. Biological macromolecules are spread at the liquid-vapor interface to fabricate sensors and other biomedical devices. In addition, the study of proteins at the air-water interface yields important information on enzymatic recognition, and membrane protein behavior. We touch on other biological systems, namely, phospholipids and cholesterol monolayers. These systems are so widely and routinely studied these days that they were also mentioned in some detail in Chapter IV. The closely related matter of bilayers and vesicles is also briefly addressed. 

Before entering the detailed discussion of physical and chemical adsorption in the next two chapters, it is worthwhile to consider briefly and in relatively general terms what type of information can be obtained about the chemical and structural state of the solid-adsorbate complex. The term complex is used to avoid the common practice of discussing adsorption as though it occurred on an inert surface. Three types of effects are actually involved (1) the effect of the adsorbent on the molecular structure of the adsorbate, (2) the effect of the adsorbate on the structure of the adsorbent, and (3) the character of the direct bond or local interaction between an adsorption site and the adsorbate. 

A variety of experimental data has been found to fit the Langmuir equation reasonably well. Data are generally plotted according to the linear form, Eq. XVn-9, to obtain the constants b and n from the best fitting straight line. The specific surface area, E, can then be obtained from Eq. XVII-10. A widely used practice is to take to be the molecular area of the adsorbate, estimated from liquid or solid adsorbate densities. On the other hand, the Langmuir model is cast around the concept of adsorption sites, whose spacing one would suppose to be characteristic of the adsorbent. See Section XVII-5B for an additional discussion of the problem. 

The accepted explanation for the minimum is that it represents the point of complete coverage of the surface by a monolayer according to Eq. XVII-37, Sconfig should go to minus infinity at this point, but in real systems an onset of multilayer adsorption occurs, and this provides a countering positive contribution. Some further discussion of the behavior of adsorption entropies in the case of heterogeneous adsorbents is given in Section XVII-14. 

The data on heats and entropies of adsorption do allow a more discriminating test of an adsorption model, although even so only some rather qualitative conclusions can be reached. The discussion of these follows. 

The section cd can be regarded as due to relatively large cone-shaped pores that would fill and empty without hysteresis. At the end of section cd, then, all pores should be filled, and the adsorbent should hold the same volume of any adsorbate. See Ref. 200 for a discussion of this conclusion, sometimes known as the Gurvitsch rule. 

The matter of surface mobility has come up at several points in the preceding material. The subject has been a source of confusion—see Ref. 112. Actually, two kinds of concepts seem to have been invoked. The first is that invoked in the discussion of physical adsorption, which has to do with whether the adsorbate can move on the surface so freely that its state is essentially that of a two-dimensional nonideal gas. For an adsorbate to be mobile in this sense, surface barriers must be small compared to kT. This type of mobile adsorbed layer seems unlikely to be involved in chemisorption. 

Chemisoq)tion bonding to metal and metal oxide surfaces has been treated extensively by quantum-mechanical methods. Somoijai and Bent [153] give a general discussion of the surface chemical bond, and some specific theoretical treatments are found in Refs. 154-157 see also a review by Hoffman [158]. One approach uses the variation method (see physical chemistry textbooks) ... 

Rate laws have also been observed that correspond to there being two kinds of surface, one adsorbing reactant A and the other reactant B and with the rate proportional to 5a x 5b- For traditional discussions of Langmuir-Hinshelwood rate laws, see Refs. 240-242. Many catalytic systems involve a series of intermediates, and the simplifying assumption of steady-state equilibrium is usually made. See Boudart and co-workers [243-245] for a contemporary discussion of such complexities. 

As with any system, there are complications in the details. The CO sticking probability is high and constant until a 0 of about 0.5, but then drops rapidly [306a]. Practical catalysts often consist of nanometer size particles supported on an oxide such as alumina or silica. Different crystal facets behave differently and RAIRS spectroscopy reveals that CO may adsorb with various kinds of bonding and on various kinds of sites (three-fold hollow, bridging, linear) [307]. See Ref 309 for a discussion of some debates on the matter. In the case of Pd crystallites on a-Al203, it is proposed that CO impinging on the support... 

Perhaps the most fascinating detail is the surface reconstruction that occurs with CO adsorption (see Refs. 311 and 312 for more general discussions of chemisorption-induced reconstructions of metal surfaces). As shown in Fig. XVI-8, for example, the Pt(lOO) bare surface reconstructs itself to a hexagonal pattern, but on CO adsorption this reconstruction is lifted [306] CO adsorption on Pd( 110) reconstructs the surface to a missing-row pattern [309]. These reconstructions are reversible and as a result, oscillatory behavior can be observed. Returning to the Pt(lOO) case, as CO is adsorbed patches of the simple 1 x 1 structure (the structure of an undistorted (100) face) form. Oxygen adsorbs on any bare 1 x 1 spots, reacts with adjacent CO to remove it as CO2, and at a certain point, the surface reverts to toe hexagonal stmcture. The presumed sequence of events is shown in Fig. XVIII-28.
