In this paper, we numerically investigate the effects of surfactant on dropdrop interactions in a 2D shear flow using a coupled level-set and immersed interface approach proposed in (Xu et al., J. Comput. Phys., 212 (2006), 590–616). We find that surfactant plays a critical and nontrivial role in drop-drop interactions. In particular, we find that the minimum distance between the drops is a non...

Abstract Dissolution and solubility of palladium in iron silicate melts saturated with alumina–iron spinel at 1300°C has been measured using an equilibration-drop quenching technique combined electron probe microanalysis laser ablation–inductive coupled plasma–mass spectrometry analysis from polished sections. Composition the resulting Fe-Pd alloy allowed estimation activity different oxygen pa...

drop size distribution in a mixer-settler is an essential design parameter, as obtaining drop size distribution will result in optimum performance of equipment. in this paper for obtaining drop size, several experiments have been performed with a single stage horizontal mixer-settler. a video technique has been used in order to measure the drop size in the mixer-settler with the help of a digit...

Iron(II) sulfate-containing lipophilic matrices were developed by a special hot-melt technology (melt solidification in drops), using stearin, white wax and their mixture as conventional bed materials. The special technology resulted in spherical particles which can be filled directly into capsules; these store iron as a depot and ensure a slow and uniform release, whereby the irritation of the...

iron-aluminum alloys are one of the most resistant alloys against sulfidation/oxidation environments with low oxygen partial pressures. the high sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement is the main reason for decreasing of their room temperature ductility. there is a drop of strength above 600 c and their creep resistance is fairly weak. it is possible to increase ductility up to 15 percents and i...

Iron chelation is the only pharmacological intervention against anthracycline cardiotoxicity whose effectiveness has been well documented both experimentally and clinically. In this study, we aimed to assess whether pyridoxal 2-chlorobenzoyl hydrazone (o-108, a strong iron chelator) can provide effective protection against daunorubicin (DAU)-induced chronic cardiotoxicity in rabbits. First, usi...

In weakly ferromagnetic materials, already small changes in the atomic configuration triggered by temperature or chemistry can alter the magnetic interactions responsible for the non-random atomic-spin orientation. Different magnetic states, in turn, can give rise to substantially different macroscopic properties. A classical example is iron, which exhibits a great variety of properties as one ...
