Local geometry

For obtaining interaction energies and equilibrium geometries, local density approximation is even less adequate than it is in the case of hydrogen-bonded complexes. The intermolecular distances are too short and the interaction energies are overestimated.113,123,127-129,130,131 The overestimation of the interaction energy in the case of noble-gas dimers by factor three as it is the case for Ar2 or even ten for He2127 makes LDA rather useless for this type of systems. [Pg.177]

We currently use the BO pohmomials in a systematic way to fit the potential energy surfaces of few-atom systems. An extension of BO functional forms to the formulation of more than three atom systems can also be made. For this purpose one can adopt a polynomial in more than three BO variables or derive from them at each geometry local normal coordinates. This makes the treatment more complex and may in certain cases introduce numerical instabilities. [Pg.374]

In saturated molecules such spin correlation or antisymmetry effects, combined with nuclear geometry, localize electrons into lone pairs and electron pair bonds. Thus an H.F. MO wave function implicitly contains the localization properties. ... [Pg.325]

The heat flux at this condition is referred to as the critical heat flux, or CHF. It depends on the flow conditions, channel geometry, local quality, fluid properties, channel material, and flow history. Bergles and Kandlikar [8] discuss the CHF in microchannels from a systems perspective. It is important to establish CHF condition as a function of the mass flux and quality for a given system to ensure its safe operation. Qu and Mudawar [9] presented CHF data with water in 21 parallel minichannels of 215 x 821 pm cross-section over a range of G = 86—268 kg/(m s) and q" = 264-542 kW/m r = 0.0-0.56, and Fi = 121.3—139.8 kPa. Kosar et al. [5] present low-pressure water data in microchannels enhanced with reentrant cavities. Also, the correlation by Katto [10] developed for large channels may be applied for approximate CHF estimation in the absence of an established CHF correlation for microchannels. [Pg.182]

Local mixing time the time constant for local mixing to molecular scale, which depends on geometry, local shear rates, and physical properties (see Section 13-2). [Pg.765]

Nuclear magnetic resonance is sensitive to molecular mobility and local magnetic fields. Motion is modified in liquids contained in confined geometry. Local magnetic field variation results from susceptibility effects at interfaces. Both phenomena are observed for liquids contained in porous solids. This paper critically examines these effects and their use in characterisation of porous materials. The principles are illustrated with porous silicas and preliminary results are given of diffusion measurements on n-butane in silica as a function of temperature and pore geometry. [Pg.293]

In contrast to a direct injection of dc or ac currents in the sample to be tested, the induction of eddy currents by an external excitation coil generates a locally limited current distribution. Since no electrical connection to the sample is required, eddy current NDE is easier to use from a practical point of view, however, the choice of the optimum measurement parameters, like e.g. the excitation frequency, is more critical. Furthermore, the calculation of the current flow in the sample from the measured field distribution tends to be more difficult than in case of a direct current injection. A homogenous field distribution produced by e.g. direct current injection or a sheet inducer [1] allows one to estimate more easily the defect geometry. However, for the detection of technically relevant cracks, these methods do not seem to be easily applicable and sensitive enough, especially in the case of deep lying and small cracks. [Pg.255]

Abstract. A smooth empirical potential is constructed for use in off-lattice protein folding studies. Our potential is a function of the amino acid labels and of the distances between the Ca atoms of a protein. The potential is a sum of smooth surface potential terms that model solvent interactions and of pair potentials that are functions of a distance, with a smooth cutoff at 12 Angstrom. Techniques include the use of a fully automatic and reliable estimator for smooth densities, of cluster analysis to group together amino acid pairs with similar distance distributions, and of quadratic progrmnming to find appropriate weights with which the various terms enter the total potential. For nine small test proteins, the new potential has local minima within 1.3-4.7A of the PDB geometry, with one exception that has an error of S.SA. [Pg.212]

Another way is to define an improper torsion angle e- (for atoms 1-2-3-4 in Figure 7-11 in combination with a potential lihe V((r- = fc l-cos2fi.-), which has its minima at <> = 0 and 7t. This of course implies the risk that, if the starting geometry is far from reality, the optimi2 ation will perhaps lead to the wrong local minimum. [Pg.344]
