Expansion phase

Figure 5.3 gives an example of a combustion diagram recorded during knocking conditions. This is manifested by intense pressure oscillations which continue during a part of the expansion phase. 

III. The expansion phase begins when the input valve is closed and the exhaust valve is opened slowly so that cooling occurs at the cold end. 

The start of Phase 3 is dependent on a positive commercialisation decision for fuel cell vehicles in 2015. A positive decision will attract investment in infrastructure for manufacturing fuel cells and for producing and distributing hydrogen. Government policies still may be required to nurture this infrastructure expansion phase. 

Fig. 6.4 shows the IT-A curves obtained for microbubble-surfactant monolayers on a variety of aqueous subphases. In order to compare Il-A measurements for monolayers which would contain essentially only glycopeptide-acyl lipid complexes, the data plotted in Fig. 6.4 include only Il-A measurements made during the expansion phase (following an initial compression to at least 23 dyne/cm). Judging from the fact that subphases of either distilled water, 0.1 M HC1 (pH 1.1), 0.1 M NaOH (pH 12.3), or 0.1 M NaF... 

Cavitation bubbles do not enclose a void. During the expansion phase of cavitation bubble generation, vapour from the surrounding liquid will permeate the interface. This produces... 

These main sequence models at the H-limit can certainly not be related to LBVs, but perhaps rather to B[e] stars the material of stars at the Q-limit which has excess angular momentum can not remain on the star but it is also not clear whether it can be pushed to infinity some of it may form a ring or disk close to the star. However, as the mass loss rate at the H-limit depends on the evolutionary speed of the star in the HR diagram, one can expect values of the order 10 5 M0 yr-1 x th/tkh for the expansion phase after core H-exhaustion, when the star hits the fl-limit again due to the helium opacity peak. Here, th is the H-burning time scale and tkh the thermal time scale of the star, such that values of Mq of the order of 10 3 — 10 2 M0 yr-1 can be expected, which is the order of magnitude observed for LBVs.

As a result of these simplifications, the computed induction times and lengths define characteristic time and length scales rather than the precise history of a gas element through the detonation front. The evolution of the reacted gas subsequent to the induction period considered here is dominated by the fluid mechanics of the post-induction expansion of the reaction products. This expansion reduces the pressure and density of these products and alters the kinetic equilibrium, leading eventually to the CJ state. Since virtually all of the reactants have been consumed by this time, the kinetics of this final expansion phase are controlled by relatively slow radical recombination processes. The present model does not attempt to follow that entire relaxation phase, concentrating on the details of the induction kinetics in the von Neumann spike. 

The objectives of the Phase IV program (see Tables 12.1 and 12.2) include further safety evaluation, comparative safety and efficacy vs. other products, discovery of new indications, and market expansion. Phase IV trials are not restricted to randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials, but may include other study formats, such as open-label trials and case control and cohort studies. 

Liquids irradiated with ultrasound can produce bubbles. These bubbles oscillate and grow a little more during the expansion phase of the sound wave than they shrink during the compression phase. Under the proper conditions these bubbles can undergo cavitation, violent bubble collapse or implosion, leading to droplets particle size reduction. The use of ultrasonication in emulsification is more efficient than rotor-stator systems.
