A self-association model has been used to understand the concentration dependence of free energy of mixing (GM), heat of mixing (HM), entropy of mixing (SM), activity (a) and microscopic structures, such as concentration fluctuation in long wavelength limit (Scc(0)) and Warren-Cowley short range order parameter ( 1 α )for CuTl molten alloys at 1573K. A comparative study of surface tension of th...

We consider mixing via chaotic advection in microdroplets suspended at the free surface of a liquid substrate and driven along a straight line using the thermocapillary effect. With the help of a model derived by Grigoriev Phys. Fluids 17, 033601 2005 we show that the mixing properties of the flow inside the droplet can vary dramatically as a function of the physical properties of the fluids an...

In this study, a new type of temperature sensor device was developed. The circular electrode of the thermal sensitive sensor was modified with TMT and O2 plasma to enhance the conductivity by forming a thin SnOxCy layer on the electrode surface. The Nano-Au particles were subjected to O2 plasma pretreatment to form peroxide groups on the surface. The thermally sensitive sensor was made by mixin...

Meteorological and oceanic responses to Typhoons Hato Mangkhut were captured by storm-monitoring network buoys over the northern shelf of South China Sea. With similar shelf-traversing trajectories, these two typhoons exhibited distinctly different features in storm-induced mixing heat transfer through air-sea interface. A well-defined cold wake was detected underneath storm due a rapid drop se...

We consider the thermally activated quantum diffusion of a molecular dimer in a periodic surface potential by means of a time-dependent wave packet method. We show that the potential energy surface resulting from the interplay of intradimer and dimer-surface interactions can lead to resonant states and predict high tunneling probabilities at specific, below barrier, energies that depend also on...

A calibrated three-dimensional numerical model (Delft3D) and in-situ observations are used to study the relation between deep-water temperature deep mixing in Lake Garda (Italy). model-observation comparison indicates that is able adequately capture turbulent kinetic energy production surface layer its vertical propagation during unstratified conditions. From modeling results several processes ...
