An experimental performance study on VCR system with 100g R600a/R290 refrigerant mixture and 100g R600a (pure isobutene) as drop in replacement of R134a was conducted . continuation running tests were performed under different length of capillary for R600a/R290 & R600a. The result showed that the hydrocarbon mixture (R600a/R290) had highest COP at L=10 feet length capillary by17.35% -23.5% for ...

In the present paper an analysis of mixed convection of an unsteady magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an incompressible viscous fluid through porous media due to a vertical porous stretching sheet in the presence of viscous dissipation, thermal radiation and heat source /sink has been carried out. The fluid considered is viscous and incompressible. The governing partial differential equations ...

Rate constants for the gas phase reactions of O(P) atom with a series of monoterpenes have been determined at ambient temperature (~302-309K) and atmospheric pressure using a relative rate technique. Using the literature rate constants for O(P) + isobutene, cis and trans-2-butene, 3-methyl-1-butene, 2-methyl-2-butene and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene as the standards, the O(P) rate constants derived fo...

This work reports experimental and theoretical first-order rate constants for the reaction of vinyl radical with C(4)H(8) alkenes: 1-butene, 2-butene, and isobutene. The experiments are performed over a temperature range of 300 to 700 K at 100 Torr. Vinyl radicals (H(2)C horizontal lineCH) were generated by laser photolysis of vinyl iodide (C(2)H(3)I) at 266 nm, and time-resolved absorption spe...

Synthesis of azido(trimethylsilyl)acetylene (6) was performed by treating the iodonium salt 5 with highly soluble hexadecyltributylphosphonium azide (QN₃) at -40 °C. Although this product is very unstable, it can nevertheless be trapped by the click reaction with cyclooctyne to give the corresponding 1,2,3-triazole, and also directly characterized by ¹H- and (13)C-NMR data as well as IR-spectra...

Isobutene (IBN, C4H8) is widely used in industry. Currently, IBN production relies on petrochemical processes. The current work assesses the comparative environmental sustainability of bio-based routes based first- and second-generation sugar compared with fossil by applying ISO 14044-based Life Cycle Assessment methodology. In total nine scenarios are examined. Scenarios 1–6 first-generation f...

Kennedy et al. have introduced mixtures of monoor polyfunctional aralkyl chlorides with BCl, as initiating systems for the polymerization of isobutene'). This so-called inifer technique has been demonstrated to be a valuable method for the production of telechelic polymers2). The mechanism of initiation, which has been suggested for these polymerizations'*2), is in full agreement with the resul...

ABSTRACT i i ABSTRACTi i ABSTRACT In the present work, the elaboration, characterisation and applications of different porous materials have been studied. Porous materials are divided into three categories depending on the porous cavity size, namely microporous materials (pore diameter < 2 nm), mesoporous materials (2 nm < pore diameter < 50 nm) and macroporous materials (pore diameter > 50 nm)...
