Flow asymmetric

Figure 6.3.6 further compares and of lean to stoichiometric methane/air mixtures for all five cases— plug flow, potential flow, asymmetric plug flow, radiative plug-flow, and radiative asymmetric plug-flow. The... 

Asymmetric membranes have a tight, low-permeability, retentive zone that performs the desired separation and a more open, high-permeability zone that provides mechanical strength to the overall membrane. This structure is particularly critical to the economic viability of reverse-osmosis membranes. Asymmetric membranes operated in TFF mode must have the tight side facing the feed channel so that particles are retained on its surface and can be acted upon by the tangential flow. Asymmetric membranes operated in NFF mode can... 

Fig. 4 Setup for continuous-flow asymmetric hydrovinylation using an IL/SCCO2 biphasic system. Liquid and gaseous substrates are mixed with the SCCO2 stream before entering the tubular reactor unit and bubbled through the catalyst-containing IL using a capillary. The CO2 flow leaves the reactor on top and the product is collected in a cold trap after controlled expansion to ambient pressure...

As in gas-liquid systems, this flow is formed based on the type of microchannel geometry used flow symmetric geometry forms annular flow, while flow asymmetric forms parallel flow. This flow regime is observed at elevated flow rates in the microchannel without static internals - the higher the flow velocity, the better the stability. The shear force of the continuous phase is dominant over the surface tension force and, therefore, the dispersed phase flows straight forming annular or parallel flow.

The air jet textured yam process is based on overfeeding a yam into a turbulent air jet so that the excess length forms into loops that are trapped in the yam stmcture. The air flow is unheated, turbulent, and asymmetrically impinges the yam. The process includes a heat stabilization zone. Key process variables include texturing speed, air pressure, percentage overfeed, filament linear density, air flow, spin finish, and fiber modulus (100). The loops create visual and tactile aesthetics similar to false twist textured and staple spun yams. 

Fiber dimensions have been studied for hemodialysis. When blood is circulated through the fiber lumen (m vivo), a significant reduction in apparent blood viscosity may occur if the flow-path diameter is below 100 p.m (11). Therefore, current dialy2ers use fibers with internal diameters of 180—250 p.m to obtain the maximum surface area within a safe range (see Dialysis). The relationship between the fiber cross section and the blood cells is shown in Figure 5. In many industrial appUcations, where the bore fluid is dialy2ed under elevated pressure (>200 kPa or 2 atm), fibers may burst at points of imperfection. Failure of this nature is especially likely for asymmetric fibers that display a large number of macro voids within the walls. 

Amorphous nylons are transparent. Heat-deflection temperatures are lower than those of filled crystalline nylon resins, and melt flow is stiffer hence, they are more difficult to process. Mold shrinkage is lower and they absorb less water. Warpage is reduced and dimensional stabiUty less of a problem than with crystalline products. Chemical and hydrolytic stabiUty are excellent. Amorphous nylons can be made by using monomer combinations that result in highly asymmetric stmctures which crystalline with difficulty or by adding crystallization inhibitors to crystalline resins such as nylon-6 (61). 

Cavitation has three negative side effects in valves—noise and vibration, material removal, and reduced flow. The bubble-collapse process is a violent asymmetrical implosion that forms a high-speed microjet and induces pressure waves in the fluid. This hydrodynamic noise and the mechanical vibration that it can produce are far stronger than other noise-generation sources in liquid flows. If implosions occur adjacent to a solid component, minute pieces of material can be removed, which, over time, will leave a rough, cinderlike surface. 

When the regional wind allows the outflow to take place in primarily one direction and the rising warm urban air moves off with this regional flow, the circulation is termed the urban plume (Fig. 17-22). Under this circumstance, the inflow to the urban center near the surface may also be asymmetric, although it is more likely to be symmetric than the outflow at higher altitudes.

Additionally, the shape of the deviation will prompt the operator to search for more detailed information upon which to act. An example of a process deviation as represented by an asymmetrical display might be the low flow of crude through the coils due to a blockage. This may be represented by a decrease in crude supply and fuel supply and an increase in inlet temperature. This type of overview display has the following advantages ... 

MIM or SIM [82-84] diodes to the PPV/A1 interface provides a good qualitative understanding of the device operation in terms of Schottky diodes for high impurity densities (typically 2> 1017 cm-3) and rigid band diodes for low impurity densities (typically<1017 cm-3). Figure 15-14a and b schematically show the two models for the different impurity concentrations. However, these models do not allow a quantitative description of the open circuit voltage or the spectral resolved photocurrent spectrum. The transport properties of single-layer polymer diodes with asymmetric metal electrodes are well described by the double-carrier current flow equation (Eq. (15.4)) where the holes show a field dependent mobility and the electrons of the holes show a temperature-dependent trap distribution.
