Uptake kinetics of gas phase nitrous acid (HONO) by a pH-controlled aqueous solution was investigated by using a wetted wall flow tube. The gas phase concentration of HONO after exposure to the aqueous solution was measured selectively by the chemical ionization mass spectrometer in a high sensitive manner. The uptake rate of the gaseous HONO was found to depend on the pH of the solution. For t...

It is very important in the design of a drying system is to evaluate sticking behaviour of the materials goes under drying. A new approach to the sticking issue is applied in this study by carrying out a sticking test for the liquid associated with the materials under study. It was found that the liquid bridge is responsible of the initial sticking of the materials to the contact surface and th...

We investigate the H/D isotope effect in a liquid-liquid transition crystallization-resistant supercooled aqueous solution. Using steady-state infrared spectroscopy and measuring thermal conductivities, we observe ?5 K shift onset temperature of transition, value that is similar to shifts HDA-LDA Widom line pure water [Kim et al., Science 358, 1589 (2017)], highlights importance effects water's...

In this paper, the sloshing response of liquid in a two dimensional rigid rectangular tank with rigid baffles is investigated using boundary element technique. A baffle is a supplementary structural element which supplies a kind of passive control on the effects of ground shaking. The complicated liquid domain is divided into two simple sub-domains so that the liquid velocity potential in each ...

In a series of five tests, liquid polyphosphate fertilizer solution was used to treat liquid dairy and swine manure to control odors. Potassium permanganate, a pesticide-wetting agent, nitrogen-zinc liquid fertilizer solution and a digestive deodorant were also used in several of the tests. All tests were evaluated by an odor panel for odor strength and odor quality. The polyphosphates did not ...

Although a fundamental physical parameter, surface tension is difficult to measure. Common tensiometry inaccuracy comes from failure to control air—liquid—solid contact conditions, or account for liquid meniscus geometry and buoyancy corrections. This paper describes an in situ tensiometry technique, based on withdrawal of a thin-walled tube from the liquid interface, that enforces a known air—...
