We present a general algorithm for calculating the spatial variation of the shear viscosity and thermal conductivity through an equilibrium solid-liquid interface using the zero-flux version of the boundary fluctuation theory. In the case of an equilibrium interface between a high melting point Lennard-Jones solid and a low melting point Lennard-Jones liquid, we find that the transport coeffici...

the effect of magnetic field on the liquid-liquid equilibrium of two ternary systems (water + acetic acid + butyl acetate and water + acetic acid + dimethyl succinate) at 298.15 k under atmospheric pressure was investigated. the results obtained show that the strength of the magnetic field (0.02 t) affects the solubility of acetic acid in the used organic solvents. distribution coefficients and...

a numerical framework has been proposed to model the interacting effects of mixture non-ideality and mass transfer on hydrodynamics of a multiphase system using cfd methods.mass transfer during condensation and vaporization is modeled by chemical potential at the liquid-vapor interface. species mass transfers are related to the diffusion at the interface which in turn is related to the concentr...

recently, 6-(2-naphthyl)-2, 3-dihydro-as-triazine-3-thione (ndtt) was synthesized in laboratory and used successfully for the spectrophotometric determination of nanogram levels of cu2+ in aqueous solution. this reagent forms a specific red complex with cu2+ ions after the extraction by chloroform at alkaline ph. the absorption of the complex in the uv region (313 nm) is about 8 times as strong...

a simple and rapid microextraction procedure based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) was developed for determination and speciation of trace amounts of chromium (cr) by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas). in the proposed approach, chloroform and methanol were used as extraction and dispersive solvents. a new schiff's base ligand, bis(2-methoxy benzaldehyde) ethylene d...

Within the Landau-de Gennes theory of liquid crystals, we study theoretically the equilibrium configurations with uniaxial symmetry. We show that the uniaxial symmetry constraint is very restrictive and can in general not be satisfied, except in very symmetric situations. For oneand two-dimensional configurations, we characterize completely the uniaxial equilibria: they must have constant direc...
